Hearing how you phrased it reminds me of a study that showed how parachutes do not in fact save lives (the study was more to show the consequences of extrapolating data, so the result should not be taken seriously): https://www.b

The primary issue in colorblindness is: 1) One confuses two types of colors as the same one (e.g. red-green, blue-yellow, etc. colorblind) or 2) Colors that are close together appear to be the identical (Like the case that I saw, half of th

As a warning, this would not be good for colorblind people (such as myself). The "Hello, Hacker News!" Hash's middle ring has half it's ring that looks identical to me, and unless I looked carefully, that entire ring loo

Yeah that chipset. I haven't stress tested it though. When I need to do something I just use wired LAN.

Yes, that is what they are: SPL is the very very first thing the ARM chip boots, similar to the old BIOS that was at the front of your HDD? ARM Trusted Firmware roughly (VERY roughly) analogous to Intel's ME, it is a trusted execution

Good for them. I have been a Lifetime Plexpass user for several years, and have found it well worth the cost (I think I paid like $60 when it was that cost? But I would still consider the $120 worth it). The "Livestream" seems to

considering doing ctrl + f "atat7024" proves otherwise, you are simply not worth replying to anymore, seeing as how you cannot conduct basic research or you are willing spreading misinformation.

Is this person a Graphene OS dev? I couldn't confirm that (from a cursory search), but if so, this massively undermines my confidence in using it on my Pixel.

Ahh gotcha, that makes sense! I'm not sure if I agree or not to be honest. I think there's good things (like you said, make sure the user knows they are doing it), but I have never convinced myself it is absolutely superior. EDIT:

I understand that. I've tried pmOS a few times. I really like pmOS and they have a great community (I'm more active in the pmOS Matrix channel vs the Mobian channel), but unfortunately relying on muslc vs glibc can be a bit of a p

That was my guess too. I've tried SXMO a couple of times but ended up going back to Phosh. Its probably me, but I could not figure out the UI of it.

Okay! If I may ask, I tried using SXMO a couple of times, but I never got used to it. Do I just need to stick with it for a little bit and it gets better, or what are your thoughts?

I'm skeptical of that person's claims, primarily because the document the individual sourced as "fact" was riddled with factual errors. I don't know enough about USB security to make a judgement one way or another.

In that case I would say either are stable enough for you to use. If you want something sooner than later I would get a Pinephone. If you go with a pinephone get the 3 GB version, as anbox takes up a fair bit of RAM.

Its the same as developing for a linux desktop. mmsd is written in C, and has python unit tests.
