She was meant to be a foil against Data, but came off as hating him.

I think it's because Brent Spiner was so damn charismatic as Data.

Like SNW or DISCO?

The only thing he did that was questionable was set up 4 shifts. That's a big change and having engineering work around the clock is a bit of a dick move.

My wife and I have basically replaced TV with audiobooks. We get to read a book together and we can do something while listening.

I love them.

I think you might have something wrong with your install. I do some heavy simulations (mostly Thermo and structural stress tests) with old hardware and haven't had to restart ever.

I'm baffled as to how you can have so many problems.

You need multiple restarts a day?

What are you doing?

But it is the question.

OP wants to know if fairphone will last 10 years. The retort is that even if you can have a phone that is supported for 10 years, you won't want to use it that long.

People under the age of 25 tend to be really bad at the Internet. The number of times high schoolers or college kids are mystified by how I'm able to get information quickly from search engines is beyond me.

I'm not surprised they can't tell what's real, they can't search for tiny details like "transmission time to Mars" or "gravity on mercury".

There is value in trying things outside your comfort zone. It's the only way to grow, or find new things you like.

I swapped to Linux in the last month. But honestly being able to use my phone as a backup made me not worry about needing a computer right then.
