The channel is semi-paused but still gradually growing views...
Selling soon an HDPLEX, slightly used.
It's an high quality, fanless internal Ac/Dc converter for Hifi and PC.
A new video is out, and it's finally the Volla Phone X23 unboxing.

(A silent unboxing avoiding copyright issues and criticism on the Youtube stock themes 😆)
Jolla-Devices boosted:
Since Upscaler has just reached 150,000 installs on Flathub, I'm releasing Upscaler 1.5.0! Upscaler is an app that allows you to upscale images locally, securely, and completely offline.
Thanks to @zoeyTheWitch's wonderful contribution, this release introduces the long overdue functionality to load multiple images at once and add them to the queue. This avoids having to load and add each image to the queue, which will significantly speed up the process of adding images to the queue.
The entire async and threading model was ported to the asyncio and threading modules, thanks to the long *await*ed (pun very much intended) asyncio integration in PyGObject that was made available recently.
Loading images has become much faster and smoother, while using less memory as a direct result of the asyncio and threading port.
This release also makes saving the resulting images completely optional. Additionally, there is now a copy button to copy images without saving them. As such, the process to upscale images has gotten more straightforward than ever – just load the image, set the desired scaling factor and the image type.
The progress rows have gotten a redesign to make them more reminiscent to typical rows with progress bars.
You can get Upscaler 1.5.0 on Flathub: https://flathub.org/apps/io.gitlab.theevilskeleton.Upscaler

First serious test for an Aliexpress 20A battery: almost failed but 🤗.
After 15 km on plain roads it shut down suddenly.
The BMS entered protection mode I think, after 10 minutes and outer fresh air, it booted again normally 👍🏼
Other 4 km with no issues but again warm temperatures.
20 deg Celaius weather conditions
@lejapproach @rraggl @taketwo @SrMono @neons @WeAreFairphone ...on Jolla, I see that Jolla Official is finally pushing the JC2 with some proper campaign (on IG/FB for sure).
That's happens only today in 2024/25 🤯
Of course smaller projects/ethical proj will not use any advertising boost... staying small.
@lejapproach @rraggl @taketwo @SrMono @neons @WeAreFairphone ...the site is offering a ready Xperias (10, 10 ii, 10 iii) and other phones like Volla and Pixels-GrapheneOS.
The main issue is the bad marketing and/or low ADV budget: if people don't know about the project, the will not try it and so on.

Hallo it's sad to say but the alternative projects don't take traction because they are small. 🤗
There's not a particular fault or error.
I am running the J-D store since years, and I noticed how in the end these are niche project...
The promo on the X23 is going ahead and it grow: price reduced to 545€.
Sealed packaging, 2 years of warranty with Volla (trough the J-D Store)
