  • Holocaust museum LA retracts their recent statement saying "Never again can't only mean never again for Jews" to support the Israeli Holocaust of Palestinians

  • Yeah, and it's bullshit that they did. Cowards

  • Linux phones are more important now than ever.

  • I doubt they'll be fixing anything since they seem to have stopped selling them.

    Pine64 stopped selling the PinePhone Pro due to a lack of demand.

    The regular PinePhone is still being sold, although a lack of a "Pro" qualifier certainly doesn't help their optics of producing a competent phone at today's standards.

  • Yeah, as I alluded to at the end of my post, Pine64 has a lot of issues with making their devices actually useful.

    They base a lot of their development on the community though. So if the community isn't up to it, then virtually no one at Pine64 is.

  • My next phone will be a Linux phone.

    I was on board the Fairphone hype, and while I think they have a good message, I actually think Pine64 does exactly what they do - just without the flashy marketing. Fairphone still uses AOSP as the basis for their OSes, so there is still a risk of hardware lockout by Google. This is leaving alone other issues like no headphone jack and USB 2.0 for the latest generation's USB-C.

    This is actually the same reason I think Ecosia won't succeed in the long term unless they build their own search engine. Luckily it looks like they've already started delivering results as of last month.

    I should also mention that the PinePhone isn't Scott free from criticism either. Think I read somewhere that the camera is borked because the latest firmware or software update messed with the camera module functionality. No real fix for that soon, which sucks.

  • Progressive is for the here and now.

    Socialism, or just leftism in general, is the end goal.

    I tell my friends and family that I'm a progressive. Online, I call myself a socialist.

    At least in the US, you're doing your advocacy right.

  • So no rapes at all occurred?

    Rapes occurred alright. By Israelis on Palestinians.

  • They raped women.

    And Israel ran pro-rape riots after the Israeli government told its people to knock it off. One of the men that committed rape in the pro-rape riot was released from jail and made a celebrity on Israeli TV.

    You ignoring facts shows your bias. You also ignoring the magnitude of atrocities shows your bias.

    You run a Nazi bar and should be ashamed.

  • Lots of assumptions made in this guide about who you audience.

    I think it would be helpful if you preface your guide, or any future guide, with your audience in explicit terms so people know if it applies to them or they look for another guide elsewhere.

  • Quick update about the PineCube. Pine64 has stopped making it due to low demand. This is confirmed via their Global Store and their Discord.

    CinePi / v2 appear to now be the only devices on the market that support the idea of OSH. Pine64's alternatives to the Raspberry Pi might be able to substitute the CinePi, but it seems that no one has tried this as of August 2025.

  • I've seen Pine64 mentioned online with reference to their Pinephone and Pinephone Pro. Thought I saw somewhere that they're planning on discontinuing the Pro for one reason or another. Wonder what that means for their business.

    The PineCube you mentioned has been tested as a webcam. It looks like the max resolution the cam supports is 1080p, but the frame rate is horrendous at 3-5 fps.

    Luckily, Pine64 seem to be developing a successor to the PineCube, the PineCam, as of November of last year. Their documentation of the device seems lacking compared to the PineCube. Not sure if the device is still in development or what. I'll have to check their socials to see what's up.

    If they roll out that PineCam though, that looks sick! Thanks for the tip!

  • and don’t want the democracy

    and don’t feel that their government is democratic

    I read the Harvard source too, and nowhere were populations asked about democracy in their country. The researchers wanted to look at general satisfaction, and broke that down into surveys about the economy, government corruption, and environment.

    Based on the Harvard study alone, neither you nor the Original Commenter (OC) can make claims about perceptions and desires about democracy in China.

    However, OC did share the Democracy Perception Index. Looking at the 2024 report alone, Chinese people scored China at >75% democratic, and responded that democracy is >85% important to them. >50% of people believed that China had the right amount of democracy. Based on the data alone, we would believe that the majority of Chinese people 1) want democracy, 2) think China is democratic, and 3) don't think the amount of democracy needs to change.

    We can debate over whether this data is trustworthy. DPI researchers asked surveyees over the internet, which automatically rules out more rural and poorer groups in each society. But this was done for each country, so you might be able to say that the entire survey is moot. Internet surveys are much more susceptible to censorship too, which is why the Harvard study that involved face-to-face interviews is better imo.

    Nonetheless, these are the sources that OC presented to support their claim. The majority of Chinese people want democracy, think they live in a democracy, and are satisfied with whatever government they live under, democracy or not.

    The original point that OC responded to was whether Chinese people feel coerced by their government. I think the corruption part in the Harvard study and the government accountability part in the DPI reports clearly imply that this is not the case.

    What evidence do you have to make the opposite case?
