I know lots of people will say it's useless bla bla bla, but hear me out. Xiaomi still allows bootloader unlocking, this means you can remove their spyware firmwaew and put a decent AOSP alternative, with "unlimited" updates, or add support via postmarketOS.
This phone will be future proofed for a decade, as people said the same thing about phones with 6GB/8GB ofnl RAMs a decade ago.

I watched Nvidia pitch, and this will be aworrying trend for "offline" gamers, as to use this in-game feature, when the player speaks with the NPC, the game has to connect to nvidia servers for speech processing, and sent back to the game npc, so it's done on nvidia cloud! I fail to see how you can play such game offline.

It's very odd given that they are shilling their latest AI capable GPUs that somehow cannot handle speech processing, instead your voice will be synthized by Nvidia cloud if you want to play an AAA game.

There are plenty of other players on the SSD marker. Crucial, WD, etc. I predict that their prediction will be wrong

Dietpie is a lightweight debian not ubuntu. And debian is still one of the top choices (if not the) for servers.

Ubuntu is just debian with extra bad decisions.

Any patches?

It's also crazy how there is this push from all OEM to remove headphone jack and force consumers to use wireless earphones, further making the attack surface much wider.

As an ex-muslim, it is dishonest to say there no correlation between islamism and the arab 'palestine' sympathiser demonstrators. I would even estimate the intersectionalism between the 2 groups to be over 90%.

Sony is very ROM-friendly. Main issue is price, which affects active development. My wishlist is similar to yours, I ended always going with Xiaomi. While their 7 days wait to unlock bootloader is annoying, the ROM scene is very active, with great GCam ports.

Isn't this true every year, given that canada is basically made of immigrants?

I wonder how consistent is the decompression and how much information is lost in the process.

Custom ROMs should be first on the list

What up with everyone using the acronym LoRa. It is becoming confusing.
