And once again the only available good tech is old 2nd hand.

I don't know, but tell us the answer if you try it /j

OK, if you insist, I will.

No Plan.

  

I actively go out of my way to avoid hiring people who list random and disparate certifications in their resume.

Why though? If something from the list is relevant, decide how much of a positive it is. If it isn't then just skip, but why avoid?

Phew, peasants.

So far I got 8 of them on this account.

Based on https://postmarketos.org/install/ the Nokia N900 can run the latest stable release of PostmarketOS.

Nokia N900 was a proper Linux-powered phone released in November 2009.

So yeah, it's been getting over 15 years of community support so far.

Edit: Fixed typo

I have fairly small hands, but still prefer a larger phone. More content on the screen and space for battery.

HOWEVER, I'd take both. A small phone would be a good secondary device. I want something modern the size of my Samsung Galaxy Ace (GT-S5830i). The back also has a really nice texture.
Oh, yeah, it also has a headphone jack, MicroSD card slot and quickly swappable battery which I should probably replace because it seems it has slightly increased its capacity... volumetric capacity.

But I also prefer a bit more thickness so it doesn't feel like a fragile, slippery sheet of glass (rugged phones are good for that).

My dude, it's currently.. well, almost 4AM. The average 3AM thinking got me to try it. It prints.

A bad idea anyway, but it fucking works (at least short term).

remove the battery

Don't forget a portable heat gun, suction cup and prying tools. /j

Yeah, but then don't kill it with a fucking 4 digit PIN or pattern. Use a good password. Yes, it takes longer to type it in, but it would take far longer to brute-force.

Not if I do that regularly anyway.

I am just tempted to print out that wikihow thing onto 15 pages, approach someone, and start following it step by step, reading it from the paper.

You’d see a million users in a week, lol.

Servers start sweating profusely (overload)

Probably the latter.

I wish Discogs wouldn't use PayPal so I could still use it (it would appear I got shadow-banned). I only have 4 CDs...

Anyway, I got one with a hidden track which I only noticed visually on Teamwork by DJs@Work. Since there's a while of silence, the audio part is visibly spaced out on furthermost part of the disc.

Cough except for lagginess on Wayland cough

Your way is now the right way.

Oh well, but it is my way.

Fine, those are okay. But I still prefer 16 over 15.

Extra points for petty, minor things.

Fine.
