i have a poco f1 and alcatel idol3. both are ready for daily driving. i think idol3 is a little better than the pinephone despite being a 2016 phone, and poco is just amazing performance-wise. i have microg on poco and pmos on idol3, trying to migrate my whole workflow. apart from camera, everything's working quite smoothly.

sometimes that's right, but other times it fires back. like in autodesk software, it turns into a money making machine. because they're the industry standard for more than a decade now, they just pump out new version every year with barely any changes and deliberately not forward compatible. so you just pay more every month, because everything is subscription based now.

no, the ottomans were the occupiers, so thats just not my logic.

and the same goes for the rest.

this discussion turned into a loop, so i guess good day to you.

ok then look at the demographic between 1917~1948, you will see how the land was not bought but stolen, not from the ottomans but the british.

when you illegally occupy a land long enough, it does not make the occupation go away. its still an occupied territory.

war crimes:

• Extensive destruction and appropriation of property, not justified by military necessity and carried out unlawfully and wantonly;
• Intentionally launching an attack in the knowledge that such attack will cause incidental loss of life or injury to civilians or damage to civilian objects or widespread, long-term and severe damage to the natural environment which would be clearly excessive in relation to the concrete and direct overall military advantage anticipated;
• Attacking or bombarding, by whatever means, towns, villages, dwellings or buildings which are undefended and which are not military objectives;
• The transfer, directly or indirectly, by the Occupying Power of parts of its own civilian population into the territory it occupies, or the deportation or transfer of all or parts of the population of the occupied territory within or outside this territory;
• Intentionally directing attacks against buildings dedicated to religion, education, art, science or charitable purposes, historic monuments, hospitals and places where the sick and wounded are collected, provided they are not military objectives;
• Intentionally using starvation of civilians as a method of warfare by depriving them of objects indispensable to their survival, including wilfully impeding relief supplies as provided for under the Geneva Conventions; https://www.un.org/en/genocideprevention/war-crimes.shtml

these are the ones that were committed in just few days.

the most you will do is write a config file, so nothing to worry about.

my advice would be to start simple. if you will use x, then start with openbox. if you will use wayland, then start with wayfire.

when you get the hang of things, you will be comfortable to try everything.

My first point was "it's obscenely overpriced". So let's dissect that:

• Quadcore CPU (4x1.5 GHz Cortex-A53)
• 3 GiB ram
• 32 GiB storage
• 720x1440 px resolution.

That's almost worse than my 2015 idol3 which has an octa-core CPU. And it's freakin' $1.299!!

On the other hand let's look at Shift6MQ:

• Octacore CPU (4x2.8 + 4x1.7GHz)
• 8 GiB ram
• 128 GiB storage
• 1080x2160 px resolution.

And it's €577 (which makes $627) which is less than half of what Librem 5 goes for. Would you call Librem 5 overpriced now?

You somewhat agree with my third point but add that Purism develops software for mobile Linux (which I don't deny) and say that running pmOS would be less useful without it (which I don't agree). There's Plasma Mobile, there's SXMO (which I love the most) and lately even Gnome Mobile feels more snappy than Phosh. FOSS always finds a way.

Let's talk about my second point. I said that "this cultist shit doesn't make it any better" referring to the Louis Rossmann video. If you've ever watched the video, you would've seen that there's a real person with a real problem and being stonewalled by Purism (which is not a singular incident by the way, I have seen numerous people saying the same shit). The thing you should've done would be to sympathize with that customer instead of coping for the company (if you're not the person that wrote the e-mail, of course). But here you are debatelording with semantics. Not on its payroll? What the fuck does that even mean? Why would I care about who's on whose payroll? I care about the community.

and it is usually one time, unless you plan to add or remove features

you don't update your system? this is what turned me away from gentoo. i setup my system just the way i wanted but everytime you upgrade you re-compile everything again and again. and some of those updates require some tinkering.

and as if like there will be one monarch to rule them all! all by himself, waiting by the dock, preparing for a duel.

just because we don't officially call it monarchy, people think that it's a whole new system. every critique you have against monarchy is valid for the billionaires and vice versa.

i think codeberg.org would be the flagship instance, since they're the ones that has been supporting the development most as far as i can see.
