Google stops using Pixel phones as reference devices for testing, device trees are missing from Android 16 source code release, making it harder for custom rom devs to port their roms to Pixel devices:

(Google doing their regular "boil the frog" thing... They started with giving Android app devs the option to block sideloading, then they announce to make the development process fully private, only push final releases to AOSP code base, and now this... We desperately need mobile Linux to become an Android replacement! (Although I don't really see that happening any time soon unfortunately.))

Mozilla shuts down the Orbit AI add-on for Firefox, replicates its functionality with built-in features:

Mozilla stampft Orbit und Deep Fake Detector ein - Datenschutz-KI ist Geschichte

Nachdem #Mozilla Nutzer erst kürzlich über das Ende von #Pocket informiert hatte, werden jetzt noch zwei weitere Dienste des #Firefox eingestellt. Der #Browser verliert schon bald #Orbit und #DeepFakeDetector. https://winfuture.de/news,151473.html?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=ManualStatus&utm_campaign=SocialMedia

Mozilla es desfà d'Orbit però integrarà les funcions de IA al propi navegador.

Boosting the #ISS would require 120-140 m/s delta-V for a 100-year target #orbit lifetime, in comparison to 57 m/s for a controlled deorbit. Vehicles such as the #SpaceX #Starship are being designed to deliver significant amounts of cargo 📦 to these orbits.While higher altitudes provide a longer theoretical orbital life, the mean time between an impact 💥 event decreases from ~51 years at the current operational altitude to less than four years at a 800km, ~700-year orbit. https://www.nasa.gov/faqs-the-international-space-station-transition-plan

Set an altitude. Choose a speed. See what happens.

Earth’s orbit gets messier: Thousands of new debris join junkyard in space; in pics

In 2024 alone, there were 261 space launch attempts globally, signaling increased traffic in Earth's orbit and growing congestion in space. #Earths #orbit #messier #Thousands #debris #join #junkyard #space #pics
