Says it can receive MMS but cannot forward them to other recipients. Does that hold for SMS or just MMS? Also, is it free software? I know I only said "Linux phone" but we are in the realm of FOSS on this thread...

That's what I had in mind. (See my edit above from earlier.) Especially since both Pinephone and Librem devs are essentially dumpster diving for their hardware. Even Dell with all its resources couldn't get fast suspend on Ubuntu

Damn, I guess I unwittingly revealed my phonecall preferences. :) Edit: Isn't there some kind of wake-on-lan on arm chips that the Baseband OS could use?

Someone should do a Linux phone that scales way back: 1. you can dial phone numbers somehow 2. you can talk on the phone 3. you can hear the person on the other line 4. the cell reception on the phone is decent quality 5. antenna is prope

So how does something like a plug-in hybrid compare here? https://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/Find.do?action=sbs&id=42814 You've got a much smaller battery so the at-home charging cost should be less. But look at

Would love to hear fast how charging stations will scale in a way that beats the current price and speed of filling up a car with gasoline. I mean, even in a small town with, say, three gas stations, there are peak times when all the spots
