Quick update about the PineCube. Pine64 has stopped making it due to low demand. This is confirmed via their Global Store and their Discord.

CinePi / v2 appear to now be the only devices on the market that support the idea of OSH. Pine64’s alternatives to the Raspberry Pi might be able to substitute the CinePi, but it seems that no one has tried this as of August 2025.

I know right. And we all know who the corporate culprits are -_-

I’ve seen Pine64 mentioned online with reference to their Pinephone and Pinephone Pro. Thought I saw somewhere that they’re planning on discontinuing the Pro for one reason or another. Wonder what that means for their business.

The PineCube you mentioned has been tested as a webcam. It looks like the max resolution the cam supports is 1080p, but the frame rate is horrendous at 3-5 fps.

Luckily, Pine64 seem to be developing a successor to the PineCube, the PineCam, as of November of last year. Their documentation of the device seems lacking compared to the PineCube. Not sure if the device is still in development or what. I’ll have to check their socials to see what’s up.

If they roll out that PineCam though, that looks sick! Thanks for the tip!

Or the zionists

and don’t want the democracy

and don’t feel that their government is democratic

I read the Harvard source too, and nowhere were populations asked about democracy in their country. The researchers wanted to look at general satisfaction, and broke that down into surveys about the economy, government corruption, and environment.

Based on the Harvard study alone, neither you nor the Original Commenter (OC) can make claims about perceptions and desires about democracy in China.

However, OC did share the Democracy Perception Index. Looking at the 2024 report alone, Chinese people scored China at >75% democratic, and responded that democracy is >85% important to them. >50% of people believed that China had the right amount of democracy. Based on the data alone, we would believe that the majority of Chinese people 1) want democracy, 2) think China is democratic, and 3) don’t think the amount of democracy needs to change.

We can debate over whether this data is trustworthy. DPI researchers asked surveyees over the internet, which automatically rules out more rural and poorer groups in each society. But this was done for each country, so you might be able to say that the entire survey is moot. Internet surveys are much more susceptible to censorship too, which is why the Harvard study that involved face-to-face interviews is better imo.

Nonetheless, these are the sources that OC presented to support their claim. The majority of Chinese people want democracy, think they live in a democracy, and are satisfied with whatever government they live under, democracy or not.

The original point that OC responded to was whether Chinese people feel coerced by their government. I think the corruption part in the Harvard study and the government accountability part in the DPI reports clearly imply that this is not the case.

What evidence do you have to make the opposite case?

I’m genuinely curious if students at colleges in Texas mass mobilize. What happens when the majority of colleges’ student bodies are arrested and taken off campus? Is that a significant enough shock to tame these god damn fascists?

Just picked up my first Framework 13. Moves like this are why I’m increasingly trusting of their mission and vision.

Hopefully they stay private, or better yet, change their corporate charter into a cooperative. Never go public.

What worked for me was:

“Windows updates won’t break your 5 year old laptop!”

FUCK M$

Landlording isn’t a real job. It provides no value to society.

Landlords can change that by simply changing businesses.

Welcome in! Hope you’re finding Lemmy in a positive way. It’s like Reddit, but you have a lot more control over what you can block and where you can make a “home” (aka home instance).
