TxtNet Browser - Browse the web without Wi-Fi or Mobile Data, relying only on SMS

Hello everyone,

I just finished creating TxtNet Browser, which is a web browser that sends pre-parsed HTML over SMS using Brotli compression and a custom encoding method developed to use as many characters of the GSM-7 alphabet as possible. The result is a simple browsing experience which, when working properly, can transmit websites at a blistering speed of 6kbps! I was inspired by the GitHub user coldsauce who also created a similar project back in 2014. The app doesn't even request internet ...

OnePlus repairing service removed possibility to choose what to replace

This happened in America, after reading some posts in r/OnePlus about users having to pay over 500/700€ for repairing their phones. But now it seems that it has been adopted by OnePlus in Europe (or, at least, Italy) and India too.

There was a page for ordering different parts for each phone, even for the OnePlus 1. You could choose from motherboard with different RAM/ROM, battery, back shell, charging port etc. Now, instead, OnePlus decided to remove the page, ~~even on the Indian website~~ <-...

Have phones just not improved that much over the past 4 or 5 years?

Just upgraded from a LG G7 ThinQ to a Galaxy S22 and I'm not impressed. My LG is a 2018 flagship with only 4gb RAM and a Snapdragon 845. The S22 is more powerful yet its not any quicker opening apps. Side by side they are about exactly the same speed opening Waze, YouTube, Pandora and such apps.

Build quality wise the LG seems a better and more eloquent and the speaker on the LG goes way louder. I think battery life is a bit better on my Samsung and the screen is nicer overall but not as nearl...
