See, the issue is you're assuming it was a staircase that's the cause and not, say, oesteoporosis.

Honestly, you said literally everything that immediately popped into my head when I saw this (though even more thoroughly and precisely).

The number of times I've watched Twins and that…didn't, at all, stick out to me…

Not the 6T but I owned the 6 for years until AT&T decided to forcibly disable any of their SIM cards in one when they sunsetted their 3G network (still very pissed about this…).

I know the spec.s were similar, while being improved on the 6T, so not 1-to-1 but I can say the 6 was a really solid device.

When I ran Mobian on it, the extra spec.s (over, say, the PinePhone) really made things pretty nice; I'd expect you'd have a nice time with it and I think it's a solid device.

Pair it with Ferngully for a 90s-environmentalism double-feature.

Is The Brave Little Toaster that unknown? I know it's no Disney film or Anastasia but I thought it was more beloved (and known) than all the others listed here.

If I remember correctly, I think the reason is that it wasn't originally meant to be a children's movie but for adults.

I mean, you always see this around new technology/fads, all the time. When it's new or ongoing, there's either an excitement at the novelty or being in the minority of people doing it; people see the chance to do some of the things that fix limitations of the current process and there's always those willing to try that out.

For a day that's already compounded with expectation and often hyped as a sort of zenith in one's life, it's easy to see being able to customize things exactly to the way you're having them play out in your head as really alluring.

And, once the hype dies down or we get used to the novel aspects, all the things you mentioned with get greater focus in the general attention, again, and people will likely value those things more (because, ultimately, you're not wrong).

But I do feel like this is a pretty consistent phenomenon with almost any trend and you always see an uptick of adopters because the ability to solve some pain points is novel.

Thank you

It's astounding how many Linux users engage with tools founded in left-leaning ideas while insisting politics aren't brought into their fav.s.

I hate the conclusions Libertarian Linux users draw but at least they see the parallels.
