This may seem weird but I dislike the aspect ratio of their screens.

I have a desktop with 16:9 monitors and a laptop with 16:10.

Those are close enough that your workflow doesn't really change. But 2:3 is different enough it makes a difference.

That and for what they are they're crazy expensive. So I went for a Slimbook (kinda the Spanish version of Tuxedo). They're not perfect but I found them "good enough".

Yup it's true. He was a rapist and ephebophile.

Nah. Known plaintext wouldn't help cracking a good encryption scheme. Enigma was not a great encryption scheme. It had a few fatal flaws.

I for one want to spend less time with my family.

Senescent cells emit growth factors. Hair cells divide. More hair in your ear.

It's just aging. Not advantageous per se, but species' lifespan is adapted to their ecosystem.

Yeah I very much like dislike the culture of Gnome... maybe I'll try something else someday. KDE isn't for me but Cosmic maybe.

I mean, sadly most people. But I like the enthusiasm.

It won't affect you in any way directly. The issue is it very well may affect what apps are available and regularly updated on Fdroid and other app stores or repos.

Ehhhh... sorta maybe. Ultimately they can't, but they can make development more difficult.

Also Google has nothing to do with whether or not you're bootloader is unlockable. Get a phone that is.

If you rally want to go down the whole FOSS path it does ultimately become a bit of a lifestyle.

Just use a custom ROM. This sadly will affect app developers. But if you are on a custom ROM without GMS it will continue to work just fine.

What am I not seeing? How does this improve datamining capabilities?
