Maybe I'm ignorant but associating these things with physical land seems like a massive waste of everybody's time.
Given how popular .io is they should just turn it into a generic top-level domain and be done with it.
Same for .ai before the government of Anguilla grabs all those flashy startups by the balls.

The wallpaper spotlight would be a great feature if only you could disable these dumb text boxes...

Correct. Fuck Microsoft/Bethesda/Zenimax/whoever the fuck it was.
I just wanted more Dishonored/Prey 😒

Make sure to download any fan songs/mashups/remixes you like off of YouTube, because if Nintendo haven't striked the fuck out of it already, they will now.

I never understand why when this happens the solution is always "cut off everyone" instead of placing Linux players in a lower trust lobby

I mean, this is nothing new.
People pirate extended support all the time, just look at LTSB/LTSC.
If ya dig enough you can probably find people Frankensteining patches from POSReady just so they can keep running Win7 lol

Addendum:

If you think about the tech stack for what an OS is, I don’t think we need to work on the lower parts of the stack [...] but we should work on innovating the user experience, because operating systems haven’t really changed for 40 years. [...] these devices have so much information on us [...] but they don’t leverage any of that information to make the experience any better.

Now this, I wholeheartedly agree.
I feel there's a looooot of room to try new, innovative, potentially even wacky user UIs and experiences, Sailfish OS and Nintype/Minuum being my favorite examples of a existing concept being done with completely fresh UX, HOWEVER

Not having to work on the lower part of the stack??? What???

If we're talking about x86, sure I guess, throw a Linux kernel on it and build whatever on top but ARM, specially on phones, looks like a compete hellscape! (to a outsider like me)
Ask any Linux phone Dev how easy it was to get the hardware going. Their heads will likely start spinning.

Could you build a new, modern mobile entirely from components with Mainline Linux support? And did this support come from the manufacturer or was it hundreds of hours of painful reverse engineering from the community?
New phone without having to work on the lower parts of the stack??? Dunno bout that man.

Migrating from Android to a possible "NothingOS" has the same energy as migrating from Twitter to BlueSky:
You're escaping from one techbro's grubby hands just to fall into another's.

He's gonna do the same shady shit eventually. It's the way all these companies operate, if don't go FOSS you ain't escaping anythin'

Oh, so just like that Large Action Model thingy Rabbit Inc. promised and did not deliver?

Basically Kingsway for ship management. Interesting!

In the context of Full Disk Encryption, to this day I don't understand why I'd use it over just typing my password at boot
