On Android we have five year old games disappearing from Play Store, including games you’ve previously bought, because Google cannot be assed to support older Android versions.

An unexpected obstacle! I kinda assumed that everyone in technology community would use an Android phone with a dark theme and a Linux emulator app.

Nothing stops you. The app is open-source, so you can add T9 swipe typing yourself.

Because there still are 12-button numerical keyboard phones with T9 text input.

Is it sleep mode not waking up?

The fork is a traditional tool for poking manure-code.

It’s hard to say until we have a working emulator. You don’t need CPU instructions translation, so it should not be 20X as the case with NES, however even with the same CPU architecture it takes 1.0 GHz host CPU to emulate 66 MHz machine, so it’s actually 15x multiplier.

PS5 emulation is a long ways off, because you generally need 2X faster processor to emulate any console processor.

PS5 has the same x86-64 CPU architecture as PC, but you still need 2X faster graphics card to emulate those fancy raytracing units.

“New users” as you describe them don’t even know that the mouse wheel can be clicked at all. The only thing to be fixed is consistency with Ctrl-C clipboard.

WebView on Android is built into OS, so it’s free space-wise, and it uses the existing Chrome app.

It also includes a copy of Google Chat and Meet apps for some reason

260 MB on my phone

Middle click was standard initially in Unix world, then Microsoft Office came with it’s Ctrl-C, and users now expect every text editor to support Ctrl-C to copy (and not abort the active command like all terminals do).

Terorist attacks implies that your town is already occupied, and by then it’s too late. It’s very easy for an occupying army to shoot civilians, and they do it regularly. IRA style worked because British army did not depopulate towns.

You won’t do much without weapons, and the military is one of few ways to get them.

Also not handguns or rifles. If you ever need to use a rifle, the enemy is already right at your face (or you’re shooting civilians). And you’re not buying yourself a grenade launcher or an artillery piece with your civilian salary and civilian hunting license.

The best way to contribute as a civilian is to assemble some drones, ideally with 10 kg payload, enough to rig it with an anti-tank mine. In case of invasion, the army can provide mines really quickly.

As if there’s any alternative to Android. Ubuntu Touch or KaiOS will allow you to send SMS and pretty much nothing else, opening email from a web browser will instantly dump 20% of your battery.

The problem is that IPv4 address space is not truly exhausted yet. Every hosting provider sells servers with IPv4 address by default, and maybe provides a small discount for IPv6-only servers.

Similarly, many internet providers still offer IPv4-only service plan, and many of those provide a separate IPv4 address for each customer.

The problem with keyboard phones - the people buying keyboard phones want the price range of Nokia 3310.

Other than that, it looks good enough for a Blackberry replacement.

As for languages that are acceptable for business logic, C++ is lolno, Java is kinda surprisingly okay because so much business logic is already written in it and debugging is trivial, Python is not worse than Java for the same reason when you are using proper linter to catch typos, C# / Go / Ruby are probably the best because they are most modern with the lowest footgun ratio.

JSON-in-a-string is a commonplace method of having a generic or any type when you are too lazy to write a proper structure for it, or want to save an object into a database without creating an additional table. In all fairness it has nothing to do with the language itself, and more with lazy coders. Postgresql even have additional SQL operators to access individual JSON fields inside a record, so yeah, you can dump a whole new unstructured database into a row of your existing database, it’s totally an acceped practice.
