Sounds like a great market situation for Aldi or Lidl to expand into!
I've always been on android, so take this with a grain of salt. In my opinion Samsung phones have come a very long way. They used to be slower and bloated in comparison to other brands, especially while the market was still moving fast. I used to have a Sony, a ZTE, a Motorola, an Umi and a Jiayu - I tried quite a few over the years.
The recent generation are all fast enough and performance wise last 4+ years before they get noticably slow and an upgrade becomes necessary. Software support on Samsung is now phenomenal. I had so many bugs and hitches on other vendors' phones and they were rarely fixed - the absolute opposite has been the experience on my Samsungs. Updates are frequent, smooth and stable.
I know this reads like an ad, but I was honestly positively suprised after I bought a Samsung tablet a few years back and have slowly switched over to Samsung devices. The same happened with all other members of my family. Samsung simply won.
I suppose the iPhone is very similar in that regard, both simply work and are great for everyday use. It's almost boring!
I do advice you to look at the upper end though, they simply have more performance reserves. If you are a display menace and battery destroyer though, you won't notice any significant slow down from the cheaper range in the 2 to 3 years you have before it becomes uneconomical to repair the device anyways.
If only modern kernels weren't a problem. I wish you could just install new OSs like on PC.
Btrfs snapshots/subvolumes can now also be deleted with rm. It's no longer necessary to use 'btrfs subvolume delete'
Not exactly a charity per se, but many open software projects are in dire need of funding. If there is a piece of software you really like that makes your life easier, consider donating.
Otherwise, stuff like the Trevor Project or similar sound great.
She might even argue for significantly more hours if she wipes out an entire blood line at once.
Having friends that refuse to have anything to do with Telegram is a God's Send nowadays!
Kann eigentlich jemand mal die originale Geschichte herausrücken? Oder hat das einfach spontan mit dem Kommentar-Roboter angefangen?
Krass, das sieht mega gut und aufwändig aus!
He, while we're on the topic of documentation, if people want to help the effort, where should they look for a start? I am still new to Nix but love it so far and in the distant future I could see myself writing docs. Is there a place where people organize doc writing?
No, it's just a common saying that shows how people react to this sort of news. It's a bit cynical but not untrue.
Coming from Rust I am toying around with Lua at the moment. Lua is a small, simple and I would say a very neat language. But for big projects like an entire game I would personally much prefer a "traditional" compiled language like C/C++, Java/C# or Rust. Scripting langs are great for small scopes, but they quickly become a burden for bigger things in my opinion.
