The whole concept is different. I've just started trying it and the gist of it is that it's basically only the app drawer, but on steroids. There is no home screen to arrange, you simply set favorite apps that show up first. Anything else you select by scrolling through the alphabet, which seems quick enough if you know the app name you're looking for.

I can already tell that I would love it more if favorites were redesigned a bit to use the initial space better. But this would betray the simplicity they are trying to achieve.

Something about "defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic". They would be arguing about the detailed interpretation longer than Biden will be around.

The Democrats' achilles heel.

I didn't know there were that many tech reviewers.

Until we figure out how that is possible outside of theory, it is just that. We have no plans that address actually keeping a spaceship working on such a timescale, and keeping the crew alive on top of it.

Considering we haven't seen any generational alien ships visit, it seems like nobody else has figured it out yet, either.

I truly despise how simplified things have gotten. Interacting and modifying YouTube playlists is such a chore now.

I use an app on my phone that lets me use it as a touchscreen and keyboard for my Linux media PC. I have no idea if it will ever (be able to) support Wayland.

Hardware can't fix what's broken in software.

North Korea has been running dozens of literal concentration camps, but dealing with that has been too inconvenient. And it's only becoming more so as time passes.

I'm missing comment navigation like Sync for reddit used to have, with buttons to go between the root level comments.

It wasn't, popularity waned slowly over the years.

They decided which one is better for them.

As much as you can afford. When it comes to technology you can't go for the budget options without truly feeling the consequences.

That was true when the modern smartphone was a new concept. Since then, cheap models (a little above the bare minimum) have steadily become better and these days, aside from photography, will do anything the more expensive ones can. Which have also gotten much more expensive than they used to be. Unless you need specialty features like folding or S-Pen, it's not worth it.

Just an inherent consequence of capitalism. If people are willing to pay much more than the price that was set by the manufacturer, it's their loss and a business opportunity for third parties.

Ukrainian civilians are fair game to the Russian military, so...

That PC is on Ubuntu LTS so it didn't come to mind. The app I've been using is called Unified Remote and was generally pretty neat, not so much about tying my phone to the PC.

I use an app to control the mouse and keyboard of my home theater PC from my smartphone. Will that ever be able to work?

Republicans when they get control again: You know what sounds like a great idea? Expanding the supreme court!

I always found this to be a bad example. 15 people out of the 51 on that page are playing the game they're in a boycott group for. That's a clear minority, even if that had been representative of all 1557 members.
