Use screen?

Maybe I don't understand what you're after. But 99.9% of Linux systems don't use X. But none of those are desktop PC's.

Q1: No, it does not require X. But some software even if not graphical, requires X libs for whatever reason (e.g. Using Qt)

Edit: to answer Q2: I don't think there is technically a way to interact with the system without a TTY but thats technicalities. Your more practical answer is to use SSH to log in and interact. This is how most IoT things work which run Linux and have no display capability at all.

If only they banned sending mail and reading the newspaper we could have saved those kids.

(you missed the point of my comment)

Having a phone is an important part of participating in society like it or not. Not everyone has a happy home life of a home at all, and flatly banning anyone from owning a phone (purchased themselves) under 16 could further endanger young people already struggling in a dangerous situation. Or even just maintaining a job to survive.

Of course I don't want to live in a world where under 16s need to work, or need to discretely contact help, but we have to face reality. Let's fix that stuff rather than ban communication devices...

Thanks for the edit, much clearer now. Ant is happy.

Most people tell me they could never do it, everyone asks me how I survive the city center crime, and a common question is if I plan to move when I decide to have kids.

Your complaints are the straws and bags don't do enough. My point is that's NOT strict industry-wide regulation. We agree!

Are plastics use really regulated? I don't mean at mcd's, I mean plastics industry wide.

To add to that, I think HDR actually makes a good difference flying at night and dusk. It makes it much more enjoyable. A lot of VR panels still struggle with halos and other visual artifacts on dark scenes with highlights like runway lights.

That Alienware OLED looks amazing

Our enemies are innovative and resourceful - and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people and neither do we.

It was funnier when it wasn't so blatant. A politician saying this today might mean it.

I don't think they were voting for CPC in any case, their point was that at least then the CPC alternative wasn't simply shameful.

Nice, they should close hospitals too. No sick people here! City of health!
