But how do I lower the tension? I think its just the friction in the tube.

It comes with 2 spinning tubes so it does spin freely

Can someone explain to me why lead HAS to come from another element? Why cant it just… exist?

I am in germany, so opinel would definitely be an option. Thanks. I completely forgot about them.

Can I have your wallpper?

I chose Endeavor because I like its wallpapers.

(And I am too scared of installing Arch)

Welcome to the world of 3d printing

I will be using PLA

But doesn’t that create an offset weight? My part will probably spin at several thousand RPM.

Some addition to my post: The computer I found is a Fujitsu Esprimo Q957. I’ve read online that they are very power efficient and don’t draw as much. I will probably run some lightweight task almost 24/7 and sometimes heavier tasks for short periods of time. A raspberry pi is for me too expensive for the average specs, even if it is very efficient. I think a upgradable pc or mini pc is best, because they are cheap, but can be easily upgraded without buying a whole new computer.

I mean I could buy a helmet with more holes or without thick padding inside for it to be cooler, and add more layers if I get too cold.

I have one for mildly hot temperature. If it gets cold I put something below it that covers my ears, like a thin beanie or a type of Balaclava made for biking for really cold temperatures. If its too hot, I just suffer.

They are way cheaper than fairphones where I live.

I dont know. Its not that I dislike pixels, I just liked the concept of Fairphones. And I just never thought about google phones because I thought google and privacy don’t match, even if I have a different OS installed.

I do consider the missing headphone jack a problem, but are other brands better? I did not research any of this, but don‘t other brands do the same. Considering this, I think Fairphone is one of the better phone producers. Im not saying they are the best or that they do nothing wrong. And please correct me if I’m wrong, I think the high prices come from the higher loans and better quality materials than other brands.

Yes, monkeys could type out the zeros and ones. In fact we (not the monkeys) kind of did. There is a library of babel for audio named the sound library of babel which contains every 15 seconds audio recording you can imagine. Every single one. Almost all of them are white noise, but still there are recordings of every human saying any words in 15 seconds.

What about de-googled android? Is that private/secure?

Can you explain that? Why is Fairphone problematic?

TL;DR: They can‘t. Apps are not encrypted and could be read by anyone that has access to the application files

But it is not as easy as it sounds:

There is a saying „Everything is open source if you can read assembly.“ And this is true (for most cases)

They cant encrypt their code because you phone has to be able to read it, and therefore you could.

But the applications are compiled, meaning a application called the compiler turns the readable code in form of text to binary, which can be read and executed by a computer. Reading binary is (almost) impossible for a human, but there are applications called decompilers which turn binary back to code, but most of the time to assembly which is hard (but not impossible) to read. You could post this online, but very few people would be able to understand this. Turning it back into normal code would require way too much effort.

But there are other problems with reading source code (specifically for ios):

1. You have to get acces to the compiled application which will require you to jailbreak you phone. Only then you can access system files.
2. Code for different chip types are compiled differently, and im not sure if there is a decompiler for the type used by ios chips.
3. Since the binary is different, the assembly code is different, which means you habe to learn to read ios-decompiled-assembly specifically.

Someone played uno reverse card on him…
