Found the specs sheet.
The front camera and ultrawide camera seem to be considerably worse.
The normal wide camera seems to be better, except it lost the electronic stabilisation (not sure how important that is tbh).
The battery is better, but it needs a screwdriver to be changed so no more switch during the day if you don’t have a screwdriver always on you. This comes with no added water resistance, which makes me wonder why they did this.
The display seems to be worse? The resolution is smaller which makes sense since the size is smaller, but also it seems to have less PPI than the Fairphone 5. The refresh rate is higher tho.
It has worse USB-C connectivity as well, the Fairphone 6 has just USB 2.0 (!!!!) compared to 3.0 on the Fairphone 5.
They also got rid of the sky blue color (which was the prettiest imo) and of the transparent option.
I don’t really understand Qualcomm processors, but at least the new GPU seems to have a better benchmark score?

Just picked up this #Salter Improved Family Scale to gift a friend who's getting married and is into old-fashioned stuff and British stuff.
But, it doesn't quite sit at 0. Does anyone have any experience on how to tare a machine like this? There's no knob as far as I can see. The plate on top also doesn't seem like it can be removed without force.
More pictures below. …

Thanks to everyone who recommended La Residencia to me a week or two ago. Yesterday, I witnessed amazing band Oust playing live. Seriously, one of the best fucking bands I've heard live in a long time. @…

I used the acronym "LLMs" after the word "AI" in a school parents' meeting today and only one other parent ( my husband) knew what it was.
Is it just a bit of jargon? Completely unknown? Or am I out of touch?

It is because I'm a curmudgeon that the first Test this year of England v India doesn't fill me with joy.
I should be happy that unorthodox batting has overwhelmed the sport.
I should also admit I didn't watch most of it, but that's because I have never watched it just for the batting. If it isn't a teetering balance between the three disciplines of batting, bowling and fielding then it isn't a sport.
Would baseball fans like a game of base hits or …

First round PI workup on the switch line card is done.
All of the other rails are fine, the only one with any significant issues of concern is 1V0 which I am suspecting might be a nothingburger (test point too close to the DC-DC so the local bypass caps dont have much of an impact).
Gonna solder a probe on to get a measurement at the actual BGA vias and see how noisy the rail is there, then probably put some diff probes on the QSGMII while I've got the thing decabled.
