Unless I'm mistaken, there are no binary releases so you have to build it to use it. I mostly wrote up that response because you took the time to post the link three different times in this thread, but there wasn't much elaboratio

I ordered mine back in August of 2019, and just received it a couple of weeks ago. I ordered it back when it was $699 and when I had regular cellphone service. Now instead of cellphone service I use jmp.chat (voice and SMS over XMPP). I nev

The UK isn't part of the Euro Zone anymore. That's the simplest reason. The fallout from that decision will continue to drag the UK down as they continue the process of not being a Euro Zone economy. At some point things will stea

Ahhh, Planet Computers. I really want to like their devices. They’re all Android devices that technically run Linux (and SailfishOS). The issue is all their devices use MediaTek SoC’s. So Linux comes in the form of a barely supported Debian
