I'm a massive fan of the books, and it took me a while to accept the abomination this show is. But once I accepted this is a completely different tv series with only a loose resemblance to the books, I started to actually enjoy it.

If they'd just called it something else I'd have been fine with it.

It's not foundation but it's also not that bad. It's not that good either, but good tv is hard to come by

I'd guess unknown means whatever was used to record this information couldn't determine the os (so it's probably linux lol), whereas the other category is probably BSD and the like.

Just a guess though, I have no idea

while excluding other types of computer like embedded devices, servers and whatnot

They're hurting Europe more than they're hurting Russia. Probably benefiting the USA though

This year?

Fair, but I still think it's okay for people to complain about privacy even if they're incapable or in some way unable to do much about it

search engines, smartphones, navigations, personal AI assistants and social networks created by big tech companies

I use duckduckgo, a degoogled lineage os phone, openstreetmaps, no AI assistant whatsoever, and I'm writing this on a federated social media network created by some guy called Dessalines.

Yes, if something collects data I'm going to say 'oh no'

Agree 100%. This also applies for simple things like calculator apps, calendars, photo galleries, everything.

I remember seeing a list of required permissions and terms of service for the stock calculator app on a xiaomi phone and it was as long as your arm.

Insane.

Personal recommendation for a launcher available on f-droid (I think via the izzyondroid repo, but maybe the default repo because I can't remember) is thr highly customisable NeoLauncher

Still can't bring myself to watch it after having my heart broken by the abomination that was series 1

Probably some sort of payment plan I imagine. No idea

Pegasus frontend (I think, you'd need to look into it yourself) ticks all your boxes, and can be themed to look incredible but the setup process is highly involved.

Personally, I gave up on it. Seems like a great program so you might think it's worth the effort.

Part of the reason I gave up, I should say, is that I'm using my pc as a home theatre device as well as a games console. I went with kodi and advanced emulator launcher instead, which was similarly involved (I had to write very basic shell scripts for each game, apart from the emulated games) but the difference is I was already using kodi for my live tv and video streaming interface

Nope. Just like aosp there's still some effort required to remove the big G

I agree with this. If I'm scrolling through a Linux forum and someone is stating something demonstrably incorrect, I don't want someone to stumble on the post and run into difficulties so I always downvote that particular post and upvote the posts with the right answer.

Now, if I disagree with someone that's different.

Like if I'm in a thread about your favourite tv show, I don't downvote someone I disagree with because it's subjective. I might upvote the people I agree with, but it doesn't seem fair to downvote someone's opinion.

But some things are either right or wrong, and your example of bad technical advice is one such thing

So that's Mount for around £50m, Onana for £45m, presumably leaving around £50-60 million for Hojlund, and then whatever comes in from sales for a third or fourth choice centreback to replace Maguire and maybe another midfielder?

I'd be happy with that to be fair.

I'm playing championship manager in my head here but, assuming these new players actually work out, 1) a new goalkeeper to replace de gea 2) a new midfielder to replace eriksen 3) a new striker to replace ronaldo/weghorst/martial, 4) someone like amrabat to deputise for casemiro 5) a new centreback to deputise for Varane

A hell of a transfer window if it plays out like that

I have no idea how realistic this is on mobile, and it's probably not realistic at all, but have you looked into waydroid?

It works great to run android apps on desktop linux.

I doubt it's feasible on mobile Linux right now, but I have no idea. Might be worth exploring for your use case

Hmmm. I agree they're no threat to the US in the sense that they're not going to suddenly invade.

As for the performance of their military in the Ukraine war, I'm not convinced they're as "corrupt and poorly managed" as they've been presented in western media. Granted, the assault on Kiev was a shitshow but things have changed a lot since then, and the most likely outcome right now looks like some sort of victory for russia in that war - probably with Russia ending up in control of all the territory they claimed to have 'annexed', plus a corridor including Odessa.

It's worth remembering Ukraine's military was and is enormous and extremely well equipped with modern tanks, rocket artillery, all the ammunition the west is capable of manufacturing and shipping, satellite surveillance, anti air defences, everything, and seem (at least to me) to still be losing the war.

I read this... https://mearsheimer.substack.com/p/the-darkness-ahead-where-the-ukraine

Maybe John mearsheimer is full of shit, and too pessimistic, but what he outlines in that article is grim

Russia is the most nuclear armed country on earth with the most advanced and difficult to intercept hypersonic missiles on earth. They're a threat to anyone.
