I just searched for the asahi linux (Linux for M Series Macs) battery life, and found this blog post [0].

> During active development with virtual machines running, a few calls, and an external keyboard and mouse attached, my laptop running Asahi Linux lasts about 5 hours before the battery drops to 10%. Under the same usage, macOS lasts a little more than 6.5 hours. Asahi Linux reports my battery health at 94%.

Thank you! Although I'm not a huge fan of REPL and notebooks, the rust-data-analysis repo might give me at least a starting point.

Currently, I'm not really keen to learn another new language, as I just got started with rust, and want to start using it a bit more.

Okay, sure, typing accents with this type of keyboard may be worse than what we currently have on smartphones. But as I mostly write English this would not be a huge problem to me, otherwise in German there are only äöü/ÄÖÜ and ß/ẞ which don't get used that much, but have extra keys on the German keyboard layout (I don't expect this to be the case on a keyboard phone). Or can be replaced with ae,oe,ue and ss respectively.

Auto-complete/-correction is something that I don't use often, but this doesn't need to be missing from a keyboard phone, as this could be added on the software side.

Emojis are also something that I don't use often, but I get it that people may miss this, but this could also be added on the software side.

I have something similar to the BlackBerry Key2 in mind [0]. Haven't tried it myself, as I just learned about this through the comments. But the keyboard layout on the Key2 looks way better than the Unihertz, and the numerical keys are even in the same layout as a numeric keypad.

I may as well have too many rose-tinted memories of this era, but I don't think that the things you mentioned would be showstoppers for me, but I definitely can understand that these will be blockers for other people.

I just found this galaxy keyboard cover for the S8 and the phone really adjusted to the keyboard being there, this looks like the perfect solution. Why did they stop manufacturing this for their new phones :/ Someone in the reviews also mentioned that they borked it with a Software Update.

Why have I never heard of all these touchscreen blackberries, they all look something I want. I really wish they'd still manufacture them or release android updates.

That's a really smart idea, though probably not feasible if you want to have a borderless touchscreen when not using the physical keyboard.

:o a slide-out keyboard in vertical orientation in 2015, I wish I had that phone

This looks awesome, and they even mentioned that they were faster on the physicial keyboard. Although this design also has the problem with balance, but very likely not as much as TFA. I guess this design can't really work today as there is no home key on phones anymore, which they covered with the keyboard so it is not as long as the case in TFA.

Woah, this looks so cool!

I don't consume anything on my phone that would require that much vertical space, except occasionally a video someone sent me. And the touch keyboard bugs me so much that I really wouldn't care about losing ~1/3 of the screen.

That could work too. A keyboard that you put on top of the screen, the only thing that would need to happen is that the operating system detects this and moves the content to the top, the same way as the software keyboard.

Similar to what @walterbell suggested https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38872674

Yes, and then there could be a keyboard flips around to the black part

This made me realise how much I'd love a physical keyboard on my phone.

But not like this, this is too long and I don't think one will have a pleasant typing experience with this.

I thought about this one for a few minutes, but I can't think of a good way to integrate a keyboard in a smartphone case, that will give you the experience of a blackberry or similar.

The slide-out ones that you could use in horizontal orientation are probably the best way I know of, but I wish something similar could be feasible in vertical orientation.

EDIT: I just realised that the coolest way would be, if the phone display is only as large as the current phones minus the keyboard, and then a physical keyboard beneath it. The phone would be physically as large as the phones today and you would have a superior typing experience. Only problem would be watching videos or images which are all either 16:9 or 21:9 (or vice versa). And I'd personally trade the screen size for a physical keyboard

(liveatc.net seems to be the most well-known website for live atc audio)

It sounds like they just don't want you to create an app for livestreaming contents of liveatc.net and that they allegedly own all rights to the content.

Maybe you could contact them, and ask if you could use some recordings.

You can self-host this matrix bridge which is developed by beeper.

So you can host this on your mac, and then you can join that bridge using matrix.

I've used this once for whatsapp, and it worked quite well, also stuff like polls and reactions worked. Though I don't know how good the imessage bridge is feature wise.

For this reason I have a zsh function in my .zshrc with bat (which pages by default, if it's longer than your console height):

https://github.com/sharkdp/bat#highlighting---help-messages

  # in your .bashrc/.zshrc/*rc
  alias bathelp='bat --plain --language=help'
  help() {
      "$@" --help 2>&1 | bathelp
  }

This highlights the help output with colors so it looks nicer, works with most help outputs, as it highlights the first part which is the flag/argument in one color and the description in another color
