It's baffling especially because all of the other handhelds ship with a desktop operating system by default.

Are you talking about how they fired a transphobe, or about something else?

Yeah, I've read around their documentation and they have a pretty compelling reason why one should prefer search engines where you directly pay to the search provider instead of relying on third parties such as advertisers to pay for your search usage.

Honestly these days it's much more difficult to find a good pirate copy compared to getting a working copy you pay for that yeah, if I put in the effort to pirate a game, I'm going to play it. Though I do enjoy having a really large steam library, so I usually just buy something just so it grows.

Dual screen was a great feature with a handheld with two tiny screens. They tried it with WiiU on the home console and it was a massive failure. The Switch maybe doesn't have dual screens, but the single screen is bigger than even the 3ds screens combined and they managed to port almost all WiiU exclusives to it with minimum loss of functionality.

Maybe the revolutionary feature was the added screen real estate the dual screens allowed for instead of there just being two screens.

But you don't want that either. This opens up a way for people to demand others to prove they voted a certain way - I.e. abusive family could force all family members to vote the same. Paper ballots shouldn't ever be identifiable back to anyone.

If you need the person to walk somewhere, physically show a voter ID to someone to be let into a private area where they receive their private key in a machine for them to then vote remotely, wouldn't it be easier just to remove the entire technology part of the equation and just make them put a piece of paper inside an envelope in that private area, so that they can then put that piece of paper into a public ballot box right after?

Electronic voting is a bad idea in general, blockchain isn't going to fix that.

I pay for premium.

I spend like 20x time on YouTube compared to other premium streaming services, knowing the money at least partially goes to the creators and that it's usually a much larger source of revenue than the midroll ads makes it pretty worth it to me. Other than that I use uBlock on medium/high, but if there was an extention that could skip the sponsor segments inside the videos themselves I'd use it in a heartbeat.

Brave is based on Chromium, not Firefox.

They're perfectly capable of running old games, they proved it times and times again. They just don't want them to be backwards compatible so you have to buy them again.

I mean you could describe basically every phone as this. iPhone is "just a regular phone with a locked down OS", foldables are "just regular phones with a flexible screen". Different people have different design sensibilities, to some this might be ideal.
