    sudo-rs itself is not a bad idea, Canonical’s premature shipping of it in Ubuntu was the bad idea. sudo-rs was transparent with how far it had gotten in compatibility and feature p…

    If one were to make a iPhone 17 Pro Mini as thick as the iPhone 4 then it would: - Likely still weigh less than a Pro Max - Have a battery with a capacity larger than the Pro Max -…
