This is probably hardware-specific, but I installed void linux on my thinkpad x1 last week, and it can't shutdown or wake up from sleep until I disabled tpm 2.0 from bios. Very weird. Other distros I tried so far didn't have this problem.

windows 11: doesn't work without tpm 2.0

(some) linux distro: doesn't work if tpm 2.0 enabled

They probably don't have a designer, but as a platform they're actually solid. App devs can't pull a switcheroo like uploading malicious apk because they can only upload source code (which will be made public), not binary. You can be sure apps you download there 100% generated from the published source code, unlike downloading from, say, release page on some random github repo.

Unihertz rarely mentioned in discussion about small phones. I wonder why.

This sounds better than I expected!

Not sure if it's possible on the latest version of gnome anymore. Maybe try turning off lock screen notification because those sleep warning notification would often shows up when the screen is already locked?

This phone seems to have the biggest external display compared to other flip phones. So it's completely usable with just the external display? No issue with apps when used from the external display (other than being small)? Can you type and reply to messages and place calls from the external display?

I never thought flip phones to count as mini phones. Does people who want small phones actually buy them? I always thought people who want small phones do so because they prefer small screens that can be easily operated with one hand while still maintaining practicality. A flip phone's external screen is too small to be practical as primary screen, and the main screen is even larger than most phones screen.

You can temporarily set it using sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=1048576 . How to permanently set the value will vary depending on the distro. iirc on debian and fedora, you can create a file under /etc/sysctl.d/ directory with content vm.max_map_count=1048576

Ford says in documents filed with U.S. safety regulators that fuel injectors can crack, and gasoline or vapor can accumulate near ignition sources, possibly touching off fires.

Dealers will install a tube to let gasoline flow away from hot surfaces to the ground below the vehicle

Wtf? Ford is essentially saying "fuck these cars" here.

Assuming they're still using silicon tech, it probably won't be that much better than top of the line laptop from today. Maybe more ram, more cores, more storage, more battery capacity, better screen, but roughly the same single core speed.
