• Apple debuts iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus

  You can already do that with an iPad (sans fat OS). If you're using Blink Shell (https://blink.sh) the external display is independent of what's on the iPad too, which works really neatly. This is the exact setup I used as my main dev machine in a previous role. Would be very nice to see if this works on the new iPhones. A thin client with decent security in your pocket with keyboard/mouse/display at both home and... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Apple iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max

  I use blink[0] with a 40% keyboard to develop linux program on a vps. If you want to do programming without wireless interenet, another option is to connect a raspberry pi zero 2w (with usb gadget mode enabled) to the usb c port using a single usb cable. Then the rpi zero will share a ethernet network with iOS device. Then you can use blink (again) to mosh to raspberrypi.local to do the development on the pi. The... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Buying an iPad Pro for coding was a mistake

  There's also Blink [1] which includes a local shell (limited), ssh and mosh support, and comes with a local-first, but remote-dependent, vscode implementation. Works with vscode.dev, code-server (the coder.com and microsoft version), coder.com etc. Not free but a free TestFlight versions available if you accept to be a beta tester of sorts. I've had moderate success using it, but overall the code-server experience... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Prompt2, heads up; they are readying up another version Prompt2 has been abandoned by devs since iOS 14 / 1y ago in a crashing state - Now they want to make another money-heist cash-grab from its users by forcing them to upgrade one of the most expensive apps of all time.

  If you're okay with a subscription model for a terminal type shell, I would recommend Blink. Does everything Prompt did and more. They have a 1-week trial, and then you can subscribe for $20 a year. Source: 10 months ago

• Ed25519-sk on iOS

  I took a wild stab at finding a non-subscription iOS app that supports Ed25519-sk, but ended up just moving back to ephemeral per-device ed25519 keys instead. Both Blink.sh and Terminus purport to support -sk / HW passkeys behind subscription paywalls, but I can't verify as I don't pay for subscription model apps. Source: 12 months ago

• Do you think that it's real? I don't trust it just even by the fact it costs 2€...

  It's basically a Linux virtual machine on Android, running Linux applications - see https://userland.tech/ and https://play.google.com/store/apps/dev?id=8617260147938950881. Source: 9 months ago

• Blog is hosted on my Android phone

• chromium driver not working on proot-distro (need snap ?!)

  Awesome, feel free to ask any other questions, I love discussing about anything Linux-relevant. I'll add and mention that UserLAnd might be useful for you. Link: https://userland.tech. Source: about 1 year ago

• Xubuntu on an Android Tablet

  Are you possibly using some chroot method? Like UserLAnd? Source: over 1 year ago

• Octoprint alternative?

  OctoPrint will run on any computer that can run a Python interpreter. An old laptop running Linux will do the trick, as will any SoC board that can run Linux. You can also run Linux on an Android tablet using the UserLAnd app. Finally, you can run OctoPrint directly on an Android phone using the octo4a app. Source: over 1 year ago
