"far right" or "slightly left of far right" is a shitty choice, especially when "left vs right" is different comparing the US to the rest of the world even the smallest-c conservative in the US is probably more

That's probably better, but also that's not much different on a conceptual level from a "filesystem". Both contain multiple files, and describe where in the overall image those files are. The difference is exactly in the

Any phone that gets more support than it should have, such that the only OS you can install is too slow to make using the device enjoyable, makes it more likely for the device owner to throw that device out, and then it becomes e-waste. It

Pedantry alert: you're generally extracting Elementary Streams from a given TS. A Program Stream is basically a variant of a TS that's meant more for files at rest - say, on a DVD, or a PS2 game (which did use MPEG-2 PS extensiv

Not allowing downgrades is the biggest contributor to smartphones becoming e-waste. Apple should be forced to do this by law, but only after they discontinue software support. If they're willing to continue making small, incremental
