Hot take, windows isn't that bad (privacy issues aside).

I mean I can take up issues with Linux as well. The driver support can be iffy at times, especially with Nvidia, gaming can be a challenge, depending on what game you're playing.

"Not that bad" is a phrase, which acknowledges issues but still contests something to be bad beyond acceptance.

US sues Apple for illegal monopoly over smartphones (www.theverge.com)

The US Department of Justice and 16 state and district attorneys general accused Apple of operating an illegal monopoly in the smartphone market in a new antitrust lawsuit. The DOJ and states are accusing Apple of driving up prices for consumers and developers at the expense of making users more reliant on its iPhones.

Ehh, that's ok. Slide out keyboards aside, having an on-display keyboard is a better idea by and large.

A keyboard is not just to enter text It can do a multitude of things like emojis. Good luck remembering all the mappings on a physical one, or you end up with having them eat screen space. Might not be your use case, but a vast majority of the world uses it.

Additionally, this increases the overall screen real estate. Aside for sliding keyboards (which I did add a caveat for in my original comment), a physical keyboard would be in the way for most of the usage an average person makes on the phone, like watching videos, looking at pictures.

A physical keyboard would probably weight more as well (this is just a guess, based on the idea the membrane, and additional circuitry required for a keyboard would be more than the weight of a glass panel).

A physical keyboard adds an additional point of failure on your device as well.

I'm not saying virtual keyboards are perfect. Like any other thing, there are trade offs to make. But in the form factor phones work in, a virtual keyboard makes more sense according to me. The best of both worlds would probably be a sliding keyboard, but that does add more weight to the device.

Hence you shouldn't use discord

I tried some prompts and that's exactly what it did. OP here was accusatory in their prompts, and I guess that triggered the LLM to end the conversation.

I asked it upfront about Halloween documents, and it shared that they were anti-FOSS. I asked about MS's stance on FOSS, and it shared the challenges and collaborations.

It's also their second language, with English phonetics turning out to be confusing even for native speakers. So 🤷🏽‍♂️

Are you going to go shit in their pants?

That's like saying people shouldn't have developed a vaccine for Covid, only because Covid will adapt to the vaccines at some point.

What do you want artists to do? Accept that all their future work is also used without any compensation?

Anecdotal evidence, but I swapped out Google for DDG about 5-6 years back and haven't missed it. I do use Google sometimes but it's once in 4-5 months when DDG fails me, which is acceptable to me.
