Where is that mentioned? I can't find that in the article

It's not just about quality (AAC is perfectly fine quality-wise), it's IMHO more about the extreme latency, and the fact that they have to to drop down to terrible-sounding HSP/HSP when using the microphone, since A2DP is monodirectional. Sucks that they don't support LE Audio.

Not even better, it's actually a downgrade from its predecessor in terms of refresh rate and SoC, going from 165 Hz to 144 Hz, and from a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 to a Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 (which also means it drops AV1 hardware decoding, which its predecessor had).

Why do you feel the need to install an app for a coffee shop?

That though would make it break when the host system updates glibc, just like it does in snappy.

But then you also need to cover your face

The GDPR has nothing to do with copyright

Didn't they already have that?

Another alternative then would be Restic. That's what I'm using for backups

All the easy options like from Amazon are DRM encumbered. But the DRM-free options are still available if you are willing to search a bit.

Are they? Where (other than piracy)? A lot of books seems to be sold exclusively with DRM from what I can tell. Some are even exclusive to Amazon.

This is an extra service they don’t have to offer.

No, they could let you use someone else's service instead, but they've chosen to block that.

you can back it up to your computer as well

According to the article you literally can't

Although based on the comments there, the article may be wrong on that point

Proper firewall

What services does it have that are listening on external interfaces?

It's not necessarily counterproductive, it depends on what you're trying to accomplish

Rooted users can probably bypass this issue with some Magisk modules the same way they do with GPay and banking apps.

That doesn't work anymore due to hardware attestation

How can it tell the difference between spaces used for indentation and spaces used for alignment, if you use the same character for both?

*plugs USB into Ethernet port

So another site that makes it look like the article ends in order to inject some completely unrelated clickbait video in the middle

That's true (here's an interesting video on the subject of colored light: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uYbdx4I7STg), but as mentioned at https://youtu.be/AF8d72mA41M?si=i8wjHjaKRaQbf23b&t=1516, once you have a blue LED, you can use a phosphor to convert the light to a range of longer wavelengths.

No, they have to convince everyone they talk to to enable the setting to be able to use this

It might be Jak & Dexter: TPL.
