Neat to see more tools like this out there.

Great for any retromachines that can’t / won’t run the modern web (and things like Lynx and EWW) and accessibility purposes.

I’ll have to take a look at how it’s parsing the pages. Brow.sh is usually my goto for these use cases, but that’s using a whole Firefox to do the rendering.

Hopefully things like PineTime, Bangle.js, and the return of Pebble can shake up the market. There’s always neat DIY hacks like the SensorWatch too that can still make the space fun even if the major players get enshittified.

Outside of rate limiting and sending detected bad bots to poisoned static data, yeah not much you can really do without harming valid use cases.

In the federated world people can just set up relays or listener instances, which are far better than hammering hobbyist instances with the additional bandwidth.

Commercial Windows licenses aren’t typically covered by the equipment installers (or if they are, the cost is passed on to you instead of subsidizing it), have expiration dates, and you’ll want security updates.

I think the comment had the implication that the system would be running on Windows if not Ubuntu.

Speed bumps are pretty much the worst option for speeding. Lane narrowing, adding curves, and lane diets should be preferred, and you can try them out at similar costs with plastic bollards or even cones. That being said if you want speed bumps, install elevated sidewalks instead.

Most Ukrainians are probably priced out from Apple products. I don’t think iOS is a concern in their use case.
