It's a cool idea and there are similar devices, but they never seem to catch on because most people would rather carry a laptop that's still useful if something happens to their phone

Why not Aegis?

What's the salary for Brave's CEO again?

I'm in the opposite situation. I started on KDE but moved to GNOME. I sometimes think about moving back to KDE but I do love the design consistency of GNOME. KDE's endless theming is great, but I only ever used the default them because I'd notice little inconsistencies otherwise. I'll probably be on KDE Plasma 6 though, because I tend to jump ship to the shiny new thing that will solve all my problems.

"but you're such a techy computer nerd guy."

that's the reason why

Thank you for the excellent explanation, that makes sense.

Are the emissions of biofuel any better than fossil fuels?

I'm just noticing that Japan Coast Guard and Gameboy use a very similar font

Package count is interesting to look at, but it doesn't really give a good picture of software availability. Distributions will split or combine packages differently. For example, the AUR has both binaries and source versions available for many packages.

I like having email separate from my VPN provider to avoid putting all my eggs in one basket

I don't currently use Proton VPN but have in the past and may in the future

With access to the AUR on Arch-based distros, I don't have the need for it. Normally, I choose:

1. Distribution package
2. Flatpak
3. AUR
4. AppImage

I haven't yet come across something which is available in homebrew but not in one of these options. I'd use it if I had a need. Currently, I haven't needed to use any AppImages but have in the past when Flatpak has been slower to update for Ultimaker Cura.

Ah yes Jeffrey D. Sachs, trusted and respected economist.

In 2022, he appeared twice on one of the top-rated shows funded by the Russian government, hosted by Vladimir Solovyov, to call for Ukraine to negotiate and step away from its "maximalist demands" of removing Russia from Ukrainian territory.

Sachs is a "long-time advocate of dismantling American hegemony and embracing the rise of China." He believes the term "genocide" is mistaken in relation to the repression of the Uyghurs in China.

In July 2022, Sachs said he was "pretty convinced," though "not sure" that COVID-19 came out of "US lab biotechnology," which is considered by the European Union to be COVID-19 disinformation by China.
