Which are a lot more efficient than an ICE.

Is burning the coal, delivering the electricity, and storing it in a battery that's then converted to mechanical motion more efficient than an ICE? What are the losses in delivery and storage?

there are yes, but it is still more efficient than an ICE engine. Not going to enumerate that here because that was a discussion to be had in 2010 and I am bloody tired of it.

Yes they are, but it's still messing up nature. Was just to give some pushback to the venomous parent comment.

Motorola Mobility vs Motorola Solutions. Different companies. Different owners. Different nationalities.


Go ahead and trust them.

I won't.


Then keep using your phone made from magic pixie dust, because we live in reality where you can't just grow out "the perfect" hardware company from a seed.


There are other Android distributions without suspicious funding sources that don't force you into google-owned hardware, nor give you as second option to jump directly into NSA hardware suppliers.


But they are not NSA hardware suppliers.


Yes, they are. Since decades now. DYOR.


It's a different company. They just share the same name. You don't do your research properly. This is a Chinese-owned company, part of Lenovo.

(I mostly don't trust them because they are Chinese-owned, but then, everything is made either in China or by China-friendly Foxconn so, whatever.)


Please stop.

Companies change ownership, contracts with customers don't.

I seriouly hope you commented out of naivety rather than malice to fool others here.


No, you're mixing up entirely different companies. GrapheneOS is working with the Lenovo subsidiary.


It's a different, unrelated company. You don't trust it because of a shared logo?

The mobile motorola is a fully Chinese company that just shares the brand because of history. It's nonsense to not trust it because a different company does NSA stuff. This is a basically unrelated Chinese company!


Very different. Oh so different.

That argument worked suprisingly well with boomers. Those with access to the internet in the last 20 years will find absolutely zero difference when a company changes ownership on the surface while retaining the previous business links.


I would like to know what kind of phone you are using.


At the moment this model: https://www.hotwav.com/products/hotwav-hyper-8-ultra-rugged-... with a modified Android based on LineageOS.

Connects to the world using GSM and radio using satellites throught https://geogram.radio


So your solution is using a dropshipped phone from a sketchy no-name Chinese company?


And I'm sure that Mediatek chipset has already been pre-backdoored for access by the folks at Cellebrite/Greykey/etc :|


Now provide a reliable link for that claim.


Yes.

You are arguing for absolute privacy, I am arguing for _more_ privacy than adopting well-known spyware devices.

There is a difference.


The elected president of Iran is more like a Chief of Staff to the actual leader.


Gboard for iOS has been discontinued though. On top of that, 3rd party keyboards are a bit limited on iOS (which might be a good thing for some people).


Has it? It's still on the App Store. Is it just not in active development?



The previous iteration was actually running on top of webview2.


The right answer would be Win32, but apparently all those devs already retired from Windows team.

So we're left with those that only know Web, thus Webview2 or React Native. Or those whose job depends on pretending WinUI is still what was sold under Project Reunion at BUILD 2020.


Bangladesh has one of the most fertile lands on earth producing rice (which can feed 5x people wheat does), no desert and a little bit of mountains (hills actually). Gangetic Plains are also in Indian states of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. These places are not comparable to anywhere in the world sans East China.


niri also uses smithay. jay is its own thing.


I have been using niri for almost an year now. First with waybar, now with Quickshell (which DankMaterialShell is baed upon).

There are many other implementations of this paradigm if niri doesn't feel/work right to you.

- PaperWM (for Gnome; the original)

- mangowc (dwm rewrite but has a scrolling mode)

- scroll (fork of sway)

- papersway (based on sway)

- hyperscrolling (hyprland plugin)

- karousel (for KDE)

- PaperWM.spoon (for macOS)

- komorebi (for Windows)


Also for macOS, there's paneru: https://github.com/karinushka/paneru


They are in Canada.


That's still using Cachy's kernel. Cachy uses a different scheduler and compiles for x86_64_v3 instruction set. It won't get you a world-shattering boost but ~5% is what comes up in benchmarks.
