Frage | Externes mobiles 8" Touchscreendisplay mit Mikro und Lautsprechern?


Hallo, derzeit habe ich ein Smartphone und ein Tablet. Beides ist ziemlich in die Jahre gekommen und muss ersetzt werden. Da ich immer nur eines von beiden gleichzeitig benutze, kam bei mir die Frage auf ob es nicht vielleicht so was wie ein mobiles grafisches Touchscreen Terminal gibt, das ich einfach mit dem neuen Smartphone koppeln kann, um es darüber zu nutzen.

Kennt jemand von Euch etwas entsprechendes? Gibt es für so was schon eine griffige Bezeichnung nach der Man suchen kann? Wer kann mir da Tipps geben?

Dear Fedi friends,

I wonder if I'm being too harsh or if my impression of being misled is accurate?

The CEO of a burgeoning social network - which launched 2 days ago - has said earlier today:

"We are letting in a couple of thousands every day now. But we try to speed things up. We are having almost 100,000 on the waitlist."

How many users do you think they CURRENTLY have based on this statement? Ballpark figure?

(reveal coming soon)

Ok. This is isn’t the most fun thing to write. Got a phone call from a mate earlier. He’s been given a terminal diagnosis. He’s an amateur photographer and asked me to backup all of his photos from different places both online and off. Wants them all indexed and easily retrievable. What do I suggest? A NAS and Darktable?

So, seems my laptop has reached its end of life, sadly and I'm in need of a new one.

I need it to:

• Have very good build quality
• Have cooling that will not fail
• Be easy to take apart, repair and upgrade
• Be compatible with Linux (and be designed as open as possible)
• Have enough graphics etc power to play fairly recent games and do graphics intensive work well.

With that all said, which of the following options would y'all recommend?

My little corner of fedispace doesn't have much reach, so please share if you are around #TTRPG folks.

I'm a bit dissatisfied with Cypher system in my Old Gods of Appalachia game. It's serviceable, but there's too much in the system that annoys me and detracts from my enjoyment. What would be a good system for 1920's rural fantasy/horror that isn't Call of Cthulhu.

CoC is the obvious pick but I don't lean into cosmic horror and need something that supports wise woman / granny magic easily. Maybe there's a supplement for CoC that covers some of that?

Hello film people,

Does anyone know who played the admiral in the deleted briefing scene from "Event Horizon"? I cannot find this anywhere even though the scene itself has been published as a DVD extra. Have tried several search engines.

Screenshot of the actor attached below.

(BTW don't bother using AI as they bullshit about this, claiming it is three different actors who all played different roles, while simultaneously claiming the scene was never filmed at all. AI worse than useless, it just confidently gives wrong and contradictory info as always.)

I'm looking for a feel good queer memoir audiobook for pride month. Seeking any recommendations.

Edit: I'm giving Dog Years by Mark Doty a try. It covers the serious struggles of 2 humans reflected in the love of their pet dogs. The sample charmed me. I'm listening via Libby & the Queer Liberation Library.

I'm open to additional recommendations. :)
