The article is very interesting but the fake cursors are infuriating and make it nearly impossible to focus on the content. It's a clever joke but without a way to disable it, the author is just sabotaging his own content.

But Nothing Phone isn't a Pixel, is it? Yeah, I think it's probably closer to the Pixel's clean software experience than Samsung's bloated one, but still, this doesn't seem to be fair comparison.

Hey, I've been really careful with my words to NOT say that. I was just wondering and I acknowledge that it might be nonsense.

In case anyone is curious (like I was) what the "gold foil wrap" actually is, here you go:

Multi-layer Insulation, or simply MLI, is a type of high-performance insulator that uses multiple radiation-heat transfer barriers to restrict the flow of (heat) energy. In simple terms, it’s a form of thermal insulation made of multiple layers of thin sheets that is used to cover spacecraft and other space equipment in order to reduce heat loss by way of thermal radiation.

This is really interesting and I would probably never read it if not for this post. Thanks!

US has a huge influence on the entire world. Could it be that it started (or got amplified) in the US due to poor healthcare and then spread out to the rest of the world? I'm not trying to put all the blame on US of course, but it doesn't sound that unreasonable that it could be partially responsible.

I used Samsung until about a year ago and now use Pixel since that time. Pixel software experience is infinitely better for my tastes and needs.

It sounds like you're describing alcohol, definitely not shrooms.

I mean, ok, you do you. There's a huge amount of people (me included) who find paying with their phone extremely convenient.

Also, this article is about giving users more choice, not forcing anyone to use a wallet app.

I've been playing with NixOS in spare time for a few weeks now and I'm afraid I don't have a very good news for you. It looks like the learning curve is just very steep. It took me quite a lot of time to get to the point where I have any idea what I'm doing. Some beginner friendly resources which helped me:

In general, I recommend checking out people's configs on GitHub. You can learn a lot by example.

Been there, done that. This post really resonates with me because I felt exactly like he is describing. It really fucked me up when this relationship has ended. Now, years later, I'm happier than ever. But recovering from this took me more than a year and was the hardest experience in my life so far.

I've been using it for a few weeks now and I love it. I like it more than any app I could find on the Play Store and the fact that it's open source is an awesome cherry on top.

Yup, that's what I meant. I really don't see why anyone wouldn't use it nowadays.
