The correct choice if you don't want to spend all that time fucking around with your configs to play a game is Bazzite. If you value something more than the time you save then sure, use Debian for that ineffable reason: but don't

A few reasons: 1. I struggle keeping Notepads around and organized. I had dozens before and couldn't remember where I took which notes. 2. Notepads don't allow me to download a 100 page document and mark it up. I'd have to

Yeah but Google's Quarterly revenue hit 76bn in 2023 which is when they _actually_ started working on catching up to Open AI. I was working at Google at the time and got swept in the layoffs. In the past couple years they're up tr

There are cheaper and more expensive skus for Levi's. If you're seeing 501s that are $30 and 501s that are $100 I can promise you there's $70 of difference between them, having shopped at WalMart and at flagship stores on 5th

You're conflating 2 different concepts. Attestation comes in many shapes and the AOSP version of attestation is based on x.509 cert chains and manufacturer roots. The only part of that owned by Google is the revocation list. Play Store

It's also a false dichotomy. My money is all on KMP over any of the 3. React isn't going anywhere but I expect 5 years from now KMP will be the tool of choice for native app startups.
