Opened and revived a DOA GameGear by cleaning off the furry, green, PCB corrosion. Didn’t have any Isopropyl around, so I used vodka.

Noice (Ambient sound app, on fdroid) has a bunch which are nice.

I was surprised how pleasing the jet-hum and occasional fasten-seatbelt-tone is.

Congratulations on your win! 😄

Last week I pulled a piece of shredded truck tyre off the road.

It was a remote 110km/h road, on a corner down a hill.

I saw a road-train pulled over on the opposite side of the road, and then 30 seconds later we passed the chunk of tyre in the middle of the opposite side of the road.

Pulled the car over, put on my hi-vis vest from the back door, and walked back 300m to pick up the 5kg-1m long tyre chunk and throw it off the road. (Its very still and quiet, you can listen out for any traffic before stepping on the road)

I’ve stopped previously on a remote dirt road to throw a tyre off from a lane, 5 years ago.

It is just something you would not want to see, coming around a corner at speed. They can damage cars, cause people to swerve, etc. Not fun.

Clay sculpting with humorous narration.

Watch 30 seconds to get the feel. One of the best.

It is awesome!

Excellent chat option with very elegant construction.

Text messages are instantaneous. Small images (~200KB) are a few seconds. It is not really built for large files, but that can take up to a few minutes.

Images and video are downsampled to a smaller size before sending, to save bandwidth. (Quality holds up well and there is an option to attach as a ‘file’ if full resolution is needed.)

Hold mic-button to send voice messages.

Jitsi integration for video calls.

I am also trying the fork: DeltaLab UI that includes a few extra changes.

The setup is easy.

I would recommend using it on a dedicated email account, only for DeltaChat usage. See the docs.

Setting ‘delete messages from server’ to ‘after 1 week’ will make sure your online storage is never going to get full. (Server messages can be deleted once transmitted to all clients installs for the recipient)

One of the best FDroid finds over the last year, highly recommended!
