It's been a long time since I experimented with Android on Raspberry Pi. I flashed the latest LineageOS and was blown away by how well it runs. Very responsive and everything I tried worked; including a USB audio. It's finally time to build my dream music player!

Right now there are a lot of new eyes on Signal, and not all of them are familiar with secure messaging and its nuances. Which means thereโs misinfo flying around that might drive people away from Signal and private communications. 1/

Very excited about this. I need an Android XR dev kit ASAP!
This one is my favorite. Simple, but delicious, and it really lets the cheese and pasta you choose shine. If serving multiple people, I put out a few options for toppings to slice it up (fried onions, fried breadcrumbs, diced sausages, etc)

I've found that if I just start coding on a hobby project, this happens to me. But, if I do a very minimal amount of planning, like creating issues in the project repo, my brain's need to complete tasks overpowers the desire to investigate rabbit holes.
