I doubt it. Most people here are doomscrollers like the rest of genpop.

#112Earlier quoted context omitted.
LEDs of a couple of watts do emit a noticeable amount of heat. Being titanium doesn’t mean anything - here the heat has to go somewhere eventually. Either out of the front of the eye where it’s “uninsulated” or it’ll get hot enough internally that the body will get warm.
Being titanium means it acts as a heat spreader and a buffer that can absorb and dissipate the small bursts of heat you might expect from brief flashlight use. Rather than the LED touching one spot in your eye socket (which would probably be a noticeable amount of heat even if not uncomfortable), the heat is spread over the entire titanium body.
Given the size of the battery I’d assume you could only pump out “max power” for a short time anyway. If that titanium does act as a buffer, things might be good.
Honestly the heat thing was the first I thought of too. It would nice if the dude goes into more detail about it because I’m sure it is one of the top questions asked.

nonsense. for those who dont care to run tiktok ive written an ephemeral microservice driven with an AWS lambda, rust enabled, react framwork that uses an intuitive haskell based dockerless rootless console interface for the API i created out of a go based esolang implementation of the Turing complete driver for TikTok included in the 7.7 Linux kernel I built a ruby on rails time machine to travel into the future and…
how did you manage to mention rust without also mentioning "fast" and "secure"?

Why? I've been on HN forever and I'm a huge TikTok fan. I will never understand the outright rejection on TikTok, there are so many cool projects which produce TikTok devlogs. Not just that several niches which I don't see often enough on HN (like AI ethics, not just copy right stuff) have entire channels on TikTok.
I'd recommend the Joe Rogan clip where they read the ToS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtGwlQWqQWs
TikTok is the most public and effective social espionage campaign ever devised or put into practice.

Please don't post off-topic dross. This kind of stuff takes over threads like kudzu and it's just what we don't want here.
Especially not the meta kind, please. Meta is the crack of internet forums.

I do not care how good the content is. Anyone that posts there is demanding people pay for access with behavioral data on how many microseconds they view each post, what apps they have installed, where they are located, what locations they frequent, everything they type or view in the built-in web browser, etc.
All this data goes to a centralized surveillance capitalism organization controlled by an authoritarian foreign power.

If you -must- view Tiktok content, consider ProxiTok which is an open source frontend that removes most tracking.

Why would you knowingly link directly to a source even more hostile to users?
