When Bloomberg reported that Spotify would be upping the cost of its premium subscription from $9.99 to $10.99, and including 15 hours of audiobooks per month in the U.S., the change sounded like a win for songwriters and publishers. Higher subscription prices typically equate to a bump in U.S. mechanical royalties — but not...
Me when i figured out I can just run an exe from a zip and casually plays Minecraft. Then sets up a socks 5 proxy using danted on guess what, a free Oracle server.
Was quite tempting to live boot an ubuntu but then I’d have to reset the cmos.
Not simply better at anything, for instance power efficiency, usually mobile devices use an arm architecture which is more efficient than x86.
Plus a phone is much more portable than a pc regardless of whether it may be a laptop or a desktop.
You could always just get a keyboard and plug it into a phone.
A phones touch screen keyboard is okay, i type at over 100wpm, so sure a physical keyboard is superior, especially since autocorrect isn’t on by default on a pc.

Me when my sound randomly goes poof and starts acting on the fritz
Terminal please run my pulse killer file. Fixed.
Then sometimes my chat/game mixer just breaks. And one only works, then on a random day it is just mysteriously works again without doing anything.
Then my windows laptop is like: File Explorer crashes fairly regularly. Word died sometimes. The battery percentage is now just a percentage with no number!
Now my WiFi toggle states it’s offline… Opens networks, ah lovely it says connected. Same with Bluetooth.
So I just discovered that I have been working next to the waste of oxygen that raped my best friend several years ago. I work in a manufacturing environment and I know that you can’t fire someone just for being a sex offender unless it directly interferes with work duties (in the US). But despite it being a primarily male...
Linux has some of the best device compatability because it’s baked into the kernel. Don’t need to download a driver in most cases, just update the kernel.
Plus it’s known to be a great os for a developer. Also the apt repositories or other repos make installing an app on windows store look like a toddlers first steps in comparison.
Oh and if you use an android phone then you’re using a Linux kernel.
The foundation of the Android platform is the Linux kernel. For example, the Android Runtime (ART) relies on the Linux kernel for underlying functionalities such as threading and low-level memory management. 4 May 2023 Platform architecture - Android Developers
