Basic functions like web browsing are borderline unusable on the OG pinephone, unfortunately. Still a fun device to hack away at, but I wouldn't use it as a phone

Almost enough to make you question why this guy was allowed to have a gun.
Be careful, though, because if you follow that train of thought to its logical conclusion (e.g., by suggesting any kind of restrictions on killing devices, or maybe even a vetting process), it means you support totalitarianism.
No, at least not in countries (e.g., the USA) that rely on the state to micromanage every aspect of zoning, and which therefore allow NIMBYs to derail progress at every possible step.
In a better world we would draft new laws to throw out our entire zoning system, and start over with something much more flexible at the state or national level- ideally based on the approach Japan uses, which defaults to mixed-use for every building and makes NIMBYism structurally impossible.
No. Actors are participating in storytelling, and 'evil' characters are just an exercise in symbolism and mythmaking.
Usually it's just one program per virtual desktop, and maybe a second (briefly) for one-off terminal commands, etc.
The whole point for me is to avoid wasting time moving a mouse around or manually manipulating anything.
Have been listening to Chihei Hatakeyama's albums a lot while working and studying. Coastal Railroads in Memories is my favorite
There are lots of things I could criticize Japan for, but the country's approach to zoning and land use is just objectively the best. Japan's cities and overall built environment are obviously better than ours (in the US) to such a ridiculous degree, that I'm not sure why we don't send all of our municipal planners over there to just take notes.
Is that an argument in favor of glued-in batteries, though? A lot of users' phones aren't going to make it for six years if it's non-trivial (or impossible) to swap out the battery for a new one.
I'm extremely saddened to hear this. Terrible news
If you haven't played Riven yet, that game was a huge improvement on every aspect of Myst IMO. Still completely holds up
Please just realize any article about Sarah Palin is basically clickbait. She has nothing of substance to offer, and no one is more informed after hearing her hot takes
