Thank you to Gary

The same reason as to why have a fully foss vs closed sauce operating system. The main OS is just one thing, but lots of bits run their code (“OS”) too, like BIOS, on-CPU-low-level-code, etc - networking & storage firmware is also important to have some control over (“be yours bcs you bought it”), otherwise you have to just trust what the megacorp said it does & does not do (+security).

No zoom camera.
AI in the drawing app.

It’s an active stylus in this case, I assume the palm rejection works fine.

But as you said, use cases vary.

Not even on budget phones.
Battery management is core functionality of any such device.

Still convenient for ppl who hate/don’t use What’sApp. I’m sure Signal works just fine.

… oh, wait, this is Lineage based, like a one-time thing? Eh :(

Ppl responsible for his appointment should/need to suffer consequences too.

Paid vacation with a settlement bonus for endured trauma you say??

(/s)

Imagine getting paid the third-world minimum possible amount, work overnight shifts on a mountain (sherpa stuff) for their added luxury, & be forced to work directly (for days at a time) with these rich assholes with pieces of clothing worth more than your family will ever see.

I wouldn’t think twice if the headline read that it keeps happening that they call rescue helicopters & then just keep lifting their clients into the main rotor dirty-dancing-style.

(Also damn that casual background view on that preview pic!!)

… it would be pretty funny magnificent if the engineers would (have to) talk them through how to deMicroSlop themselves & install foss OS & foss apps.
They have more than enough time.

This has been a thing for decades in some places afaik.

Maybe roflcopter weather permitting

It doesn’t?
Oh noo …

That’s so many languages!!

So a Melania Bear (wiki/Medvedev-Putin_tandemocracy).

It wasn’t meant as a message from the council, just what to print on bombs as they announce special Melanie’s bomb livery™ that all manufacturers have to buy now.

basically rofl

No it wouldn’t/didn’t, but it would/did to the masses.
