I don't practise programming because, so far, I've found more valuable and enjoyable things to spend my time on, and my computers do what I want of them for the most part. I know anything I would be interested in programming would

Yep, MeeGo Harmattan was the original plan for replacing Symbian. Probably could have made it but they would have needed a partner (HP/Palm?).

Surprised no one has mentioned the systems that, if opted out of, redirect users to a 'privacy policy' page and won't allow access to content without opting in. Or the sites that don't bother with compliance and just sho

It was never really anything more than a hobby and its now stored away as a sentimental value piece. When I was younger I regretted losing the serial cable for it and ruining a Dell tower that would have allowed me to sync it to a PC, this

I have an Ericsson MC16 (rebadged HP 360LX) WinCE device from 1998. Was given it circa. 2003 when I was five/six. Despite abusing it for years, it still works today.

Xfce doesn't represent all DE's and WM's. Chances are that statement came from a single dev anyway.

Basically they could maintain the Android environment but it wouldn't mean much because the system's still not safe, and won't be unless the device gets a new kernel + rebuilt drivers.

Would use an OpenBSD-current binary but I suspect that would be hard to implement as it would have to be built on and scheduled around the Chromium port. I appreciate they replicated the old Opera Mobile UI as well.

Five years is not realistic. More likely is one to two years of lockdowns broken up with periods of 'relief' to allow a degree of economic recovery. The supply chain will just disintegrate otherwise.

I'm not a great person, I get more satisfaction from feeling like I know more than actually being critical about learning. Not sure how to purge that psychology.

GNOME MPV (now Celluloid) seems like a bad example since it's not part of the GNOME project. GNOME Videos gets away with the same UI choice as in that app, media is opened from the lists and not the menu.

The outgoing HHKB Pro2 might interest you if it's within your budget. It's hard to find now as it's been replaced by the HHKB Pro Classic with no USB hub.

I'd say the opposite is true, there isn't enough evangelising, not enough people are discovering and accessing projects where security is prioritised.

Cross-platform toolkits are the lazy way. Good quality graphical apps are available in derivatives that match the interface guidelines and optimum toolkits/APIs of their platforms.
