  • Haha, yeah… I ended up finding a cheap used OnePlus 5T in good shape and swapped the screens. There is Android 14 with LineageOS and other custom roms available, so I can keep the phone “up-to-date” and running for a while.

    I still keep an eye on the phone market and more or less following the Asus drama with GamersNexus and the threads on XDA.

    I haven’t upgraded to Android 14 yet. It’s painful to do backups and restores with 128GB storage and USB 2.0 but I will get there soon.


  • Thank you for this, nice job! I’m probably not the target audience (yet), as I mostly use the bookmark toolbar or just doomscrolling for news, but you know, life changes from time to time. If I won’t have time to doomscroll anymore, it’s good to know that an open-source all-in-one-place aggregator is out there. The one-time payment is also a good concept. Personally, I would pay for it when I start using it.


  • Jeg har lige et spørgsmål til jer. Jeg ejer et .dk-domæne, men jeg kan ikke lide, at min private adresse og telefonnummer er offentligt i whois-registret. Punktum DK fortalte mig, at jeg skal indgive en anmodning om adressefjernelse i kommunen, måske det hjælper, men det vil også fjerne min adresse fra alle andre tjenester, der bruger MitID… Ved du om der er mulighed for at fjerne min adresse fra offentligheden hvem er?

    Jeg beklager også hvis mit dansk er forkert, lærer og bruger stadig traslatoren nogle gange :)


  • Thank you everyone and thank you for the links! Based on all info, I decided to wait for Asus’s statement until the end of April. I hope my current phone will survive until then. In case of no good news, I will try to find a OnePlus Nord CE2 somewhere, or may go with a good used one. If that doesn’t work out either, then maybe an Xperia. Or Nothing 2. Or Pixel… We’ll see.




  • if you run a whois on the domain, it turns out it belongs to mailjet. they are a big service provider for bulk emails, notifications, stuff like that.

    my guess is this is their cdn or something similar. you can see the “1wy1y” string in the URL path as well as a sub-domain. that’s most likely the customer ID or “tenant id” for the gov agency inside the mailjet cloud. also guessing that “tplimg” could stand for “template image” or similar, indicating that they have an email template with this image always being there. which makes sense if it’s a logo.

    as for the curl call, i tried to open the url in a browser, but it just sends an empty response, that’s why you don’t see a content-length header. i guess mailjet checks where the url is being called from, either with user-agent or some custom headers or whatever, so it only loads if you actually open the email. this prevents unnecessary traffic costs for them.

    i don’t think there is anything wrong here, just laziness on the gov agency’s side. they could have created some sub-domain that is an alias pointing to this mess. it wouldn’t cost anything.
