Primarily I just think the difference is overall good design between the OS and the phone itself. There are a lot of little thoughtful details that improve the experience.
The 'glyph' lights are a good example. When I was researching the phone I thought they were just a gimmick. Like sure they're neat and all but I didn't really see much value added. However, in practice you start realizing how valuable they are.
The notifications lights can be customized so important ones turn on a light until the phone is checked. This makes ignoring your phone so much easier. The Glyph Timer is really useful, especially if you need a silent timer. There's also a Glyph flashlight. This seems redundant at first because there's already an LED flashlight on the back of the phone, like every other phone. However, the Glyph flashlight is much softer which is perfect for navigating a dark room where someone is sleeping.
People will point out that most of Nothing's features can be replicated in some capacity on any Android phone. This is absolutely true, but I think they're discounting how thoughtfully these details are implemented by Nothing on their phones.
...and just so it's perfectly clear: I am VERY happy with Nothing OS and the 2a. Like, happy enough that my next phone will likely be a Nothing phone as well. It's been the best out-of-box user experience I've ever had with a phone
That was kind of a "The enemy of my enemy is my friend" type situation. I don't think most people were rooting for Disney to win, they just wanted to see Desantis lose
I think AOC isn't old enough to be VP. I don't say that as a matter of opinion. I think you have to be at least 40
Edit: it's actually 35, but AOC is 34 so I was partially correct
However I think the relevant language is:
No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.
I want to be optimistic that the industry will learn from these failures but they only ever seem to learn the wrong lessons
