  • I'm up for installing Linux on my last phone when it's added to the list of devices that have official/unofficial support. I'm not going to install anything until WiFi and mobile data is supported tbh.

    I tried installing Ubuntu touch for fun a couple of years ago but it didn't boot. I just want to get to a point where I can install the OS and send bug reports.

  • I'm very open to being an early adopter of mobile Linux phones. I've been unable to because of a couple of factors. I last seriously checked about half a year ago so take this with a pinch of salt.

    • Limited support for specific models. This means that the phone will work as a computer but won't have the correct drivers for gyro, sim and whatnot.
    • Lack of extensive driver support. Phones turn off components to save power, this was not supported the last time I checked and halves the battery life compared to stock android.
    • Waydroid support incomplete. Many apps will work but some apps will bug out. Waydroid also has performance issues so it's not as good as WINE for example.
    • Not big enough community. A lot of models are maintained by a single dev that checks in every blue moon.

    To get a Linux phone to be competitive on performance we'll need to get driver APIs and component lists open sourced so it'll be easier to gather the appropriate info and make drivers.

    There has been tons of progress though, Gnome and KDE have really strong touch support now and the apps scale decently.

    It's coming but now fairphone is the only phone that openly supports Linux mobile distros and is open sourced.

  • Yeah, we gonna need more rigor on this one.

    "A square is a shape made up of four equally long lines a, b, c, d where a is perpendicular to c and d and parallel to b. Each of these lines meet exactly two other lines at it's ends."

    I'm not a mathematician so there might an odd case somewhere in there. Maybe it has to be confined to a shared plane?

  • You are the most qualified person to diagnose yourself since you're the only one that knows what happens on the inside which is where autistic symptoms predominantly are.

    Neurotypicals lump themselves to early with autism and autistic people do it too late since they feel the criteria is very strict. Think NT saying "yes, I have autism because..." and autistic people say "no, I don't because of...".

    Honestly, just take some tests and use them as a screening tool and take it from there. Good luck!

  • I do it for a lot of different reasons (example in parents):

    • Game was good (Obra Dinn): To show appreciation
    • Emotional or great story (Witcher 3): To digest
    • Very hard game (Celeste): Bask is the victory
    • Grindy game: Finally done so I can relax
  • It's because a lot of the way humans go about their life is based on traditions. Getting everybody to switch from a system that already works pretty well is just a hassle.

    Examples:

    • English spelling is faaar from phonetic and children take longer to learn how to spell than in Spanish for example. (though, cough, enough, plough instead of something like thouğ, koff, enaf and the US plow)
    • Metric system adopted globally would streamline a lot of global industries that have no cater to each system.
    • Driving right side everywhere. Sweden switched but asking India to switch makes way less sense.
    • Date formats. Arguably the best if everyone uses ISO 8601 but nobody does.
  • Running is in most cases good for knee health in the long term. It could be that you just need to take it slower to build up the knee strength.

    Important: If you feel pain, stop and wait for it to recover.
