This is a funny critique, but DEI itself is really just racism; people getting chosen only because of quotas, not because of ability. MLK would roll over in his grave if he saw what we were doing now.
Those were both my picks for a phone after mine started getting old. I started looking to buy the zenfone during the whole OEM unlock predicament, and it wasn't available in my region, so I didn't go for it. I then also discovered the Sony xperia 5 v, but it was out of my budget (although it's definetly my dream phone.) RIP my galaxy s10e, best small phone out there fr 🕊️
Yo. I was in the same position as you were a month ago. I had a smallish (5.7in) phone from 2019, which I loved for the compact size and the headphone jack. I was planning on keeping it forever, but the company ended software updates for it around 2 years back and it does not allow for bootloader unlock. I was really planning to continue to use it, but eventually my value of privacy overcame my value for compact phones with headphone jacks, so I bought a used Pixel. The truth is, you get used to the large screen pretty quick. Wish I could have kept the old phone, but sometimes you just gotta make a tradeoff.
Accidentally typed 'sl' instead of 'ls'? Install this and get a steam locomotive to run across your terminal.
It seems that, the more I stay online and tuned in to every event, the more im tuned out of the real world happening around me. Take a moment to appreciate the simplicity of the life around you. We weren't built to sit infront of a photon blaster all day 🚵🧘
I know I said in my last post I'm a noob, and, i still am, I'm just a noob who can follow a YouTube tutorial. I installed Arch, not only for its minimalistic install, but also because I love the AUR. Everything I could ever want to install is there, and anyone who wants to upload their files can. This gives a windows-like install experience, which, pardon my... spanish, is actually pretty good. Any program is free to be uploaded and installed by anyone.
My question to you is: If you do not use an arch-based distro, how do you go about installing software? I've heard people say that "the default package manager is enough" but I can't be the only person who installs niche software. I wouldn't want to only be able to install packages hopefully approved by my distro. Flatpaks are kind of annoying, in my opinion? It's not a native install of a package, it's sandboxed (which can be good in some cases, but in general just an inconvenience.) Compiling from source is too hardcore for me, so props if that is you, however, non-FOSS software has to be moved by hand to its specific folders and .desktop files have to be made by text. If you don't use the AUR, how do you go about your Linux experience?
P.S. Hope you like the new sux/teal logo!

But it's not. DEI confuses equality of opportunity with equality of outcome. Opportunities must be fair and equal to all, because giving a certain boost to someone else inherently discriminates against another person (not to mention the immorality of giving opportunity based simply on biological characteristics in the first place.) Along with that, DEI doesn't actually do this for a measurable group of people who could use a boost, ie people of the lower class, it assumes the disadvantages certain groups face on the whole and fail at compensating for any. If you want actual equality of outcome, you need a fair system of opportunity, where actual disadvantaged people are not stopped from achieving things advantaged people could (like paid university by the government based on income.) But forced diversity is not diversity, it's discrimination. Just look at the whole affirmative action controversy when Asian people were discriminated against.
