Why would that not be abused as a means of political oppression? You could just sue your opponents and it would be guilty until proven innocent.

Cool, but at that point I would probably just stick with what I have until it can be natively supported, or see if their current config is easy to template myself.

Arch and Alpine are the best distros in my opinion, however for most people Manjaro is going to be a much easier introduction to understanding the installation process. Package man…

Yes, have you seen the Pixel 4a? I got a Razer Phone 2 when they first came out for $399. It blows away most iPhones, especially in that price range.

It was due to needing a specific version of AGESA, which also has to do with security and was likely related to DRM, hence why the game wouldn't boot.

When the specs are the same or better on a phone that is $400 less you can actually afford to buy a new Google every 3 years and still save money.

Absolutely, lots of people are loyal to certain brands or look for the best value/spec in Android devices and make their choice based on that. If people didn't care, everyone would…

The game wouldn't even run for like the first 5 days because they required BIOS updates from manufacturers for the game to even work.
