Why are we still relying on manufacturers for software updates?

I know there's driver issues, but I'm pretty sure google could engineer android to at least allow direct security updates within the same android version. Google play services still provides updates for android 5. Even Yocto linux has opkg for updates.

20 years ago, no one owned a smart phone.

The handspring visor, one of the first smartphones, was released in 2000. I owned one, although a few years later and second hand.

It still works too, except the phone part is 1g only, so there's no network for it any more.

For me, the fabrics i like are:

  • Wool, especially merino
  • Linen
  • Hemp
  • Raw denim

Cotton I'm kinda neutral on, I dislike polyester and most synthetics.

It doesn't say what license they are going to use, so it may not be open source. The wording is very weaselly.

If a Maxwell's demon was ever proven practical it would basically disprove the second law of thermodynamics.

Raspberry pi is basically a marketing exercise for broadcom that got out of hand, so it doesn't surprise me they're doing this, unfortunately.
