My phone hasn't gotten update in over a year as Google dropped support for my old pixel. My 10 year old Linux desktop updated yesterday... Oh, and I didn't have to reboot my machine (live patching for the win). Android update is not "better" it is different with different goals.

Is this response generated by ChatGPT? Seriously, we are talking Linux here and this is a generic response that ignores audience.

Where can you buy a pi for $40?

Yep, just predictably has some deals. eBay can be a reasonable option too.

Buy 3x 16 or 18 TB external harddrives on black Friday and shuck them. It is still going to run you $400-$500. Can't do it cheaper as far as I know.

And you should be able to filter to only accounts that are verified and pay $5/month. I think this is an issue with twitter and their product. "verification" is one possible solution. But, other product changes would probably work better. E.g., I rarely have such negative interactions on hacker news and they don't even require a CC or a phone.

Most companies shouldn't need this information. I don't give my id to most businesses I visit in person. The ability for online services to "verify" me does not need to be easy and it doesn't need to be cheap otherwise it will just be abused.

You won't for some time as ARC is only supported on Linux kernel 6+. And honestly, their hardware is pretty bad for ML given you can pick up a used 3090 for $600. I just don't think there will be an ML push for ARC with current gen.

Why not just invest in public transport instead? To date all cars with any self driving tech are expensive and only available to the wealthy.
