Excited teenagers definitely would. Honestly, I bet anyone that sees the marketing for a game they're excited for and hasnt been burned before in that way is a prime candidate for preordering.

My personal idea/hope is that there is some other dimension of spacetime over which the big bang had directionality, emitting matter and antimatter across different poles, and that's why. That'd also mean there's an anti-universe, which is why I like the idea.

In terms of the galaxies, I believe there's enough of an observable difference that I think we would be able to detect antimatter clusters, or similar, based on emission lines but I'm not 100% on that. Huge annihilation events from colliding galaxies and clusters would have massive energy signatures unlike anything else but the frequency of this would determine how likely it would be to see the evidence.

That's what we genuinely don't know. Based on the standard model, it should be in equal parts.

Don't really understand why you're overriding __new__. Surely it'd work better to use:

def __init__(self, source: str | Path, *args: Any) -> None:
        super().__init__(Path(source, *args).expanduser().resolve())

But this removes self.__source and the property. I'm not sure what the advantage of using that is but you could always set that before the line super().__init__(Path(source, *args).expanduser().resolve()).

EDIT: if I've completely misunderstood, please could you explain? I don't really understand what subclassing is trying to achieve here, other than simplifying access to certain os.path functions.

I have an Xperia 1V and have a "4G Calling" toggle. I suspect VoLTE is now assumed as 2 & 3G services are getting turned off all over.

I had that only when they got damaged, but they easily get damaged

The right dinosaur has chaotic dreams that make no sense but is hiding it to seem normal. It took me a bit to realise what the lower left bit was, which did confuse me.

Yeah, I absolutely want this option on all keyboards too. I just moved to openboard and it's the thing I miss most by far.

Yeah, it's not cool. However, the Xperia phones up to series iii all have LineageOS releases, which can extend the life, and I'm hoping it comes to the later series as those get to EOL. They absolutely should have better official support though.

Just to offer an alternative viewpoint, because I have come across these issues and ended up buying a Sony phone because I had such a bad time without the 3.5mm headphone socket.

Some people want more internal storage than even 512gb - I have a 400gb microSD in my phone because with the OS and apps getting bigger, even a large internal storage can fill up fast. Also, it's nice to have media collections, photos, and other files with you, rather than relying on data and cloud storage, and the cost is now very low for a large microSD. It's also easier to transfer large amounts of data between devices that way.

As for headphones, dongles are a pain and USB headphones have to have a (usually not great) DAC in them to work, plus many people already have great headphones they want to keep using. All of that said, the biggest issue with USB headphones IMO is that there is only one USB port - the wear and tear of using it for everything is significant. Also, USB-C plugs are much more breakable and harder to replace than a 3.5mm jack. Additionally, you cannot charge and listen at the same time without a dongle and many of those are bad (none of the ones I have tried have worked for more than a few weeks before connectivity issues started).

I use MiX, which has a "Search local" option when adding SMB, which sounds like what you're after
