With Opera Mini and kineto I can browse Station even on this old S40-based phone!

Emojis aren't displayed and that's a bummer — not that it's otherwise perfectly usable on this device. Such devices would be perfect for Gemini, but I see no point in reviving them — makes more sense to reimplement all the software from scratch, keeping that decade+ of experience and more modern approaches in mind.
Wow, I knew that in many wars the guerrilla warefare at times went on after the war was over, but for decades… I've always thought that it's hugely overblown and those are just anecdotes.
Turns out, there is a real prototype for these stories: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiroo_Onoda
In Japan and US it's probably a well-known fact, but for me it wasn't.
I've never seen the point in having ThinkLight in ThinkPads or having keyboard backlight in MacBook Pros until I got this old HP ProBook, which has none of that and… It's barely usable in the dark — and I was never particularly bad at touch typing, it's just that doesn't feel right not being able to see the keyboard at all.
Wow, my NAD CD player works again all of a sudden! At times I have an impression that these things have self-healing. They stop working completely — not recognizing any CDs at all, but then you turn them on an a couple of years and they work perfectly again.
Do capacitors have to get some rest from time to time? 😂
Is there a build of Buran available somewhere that doesn't crash on replying or giving a thumbs-up on Station?
I like Lagrange and all, but I prefer to not use the same software on every platform, besides, Buran feels more "native" to Android.
Do you use the same keys/identity for all Gemini capsules or have them different for each capsule, what are the best practices here?
