And if you only ever used it for describing weather, that would be an argument to make. But you use it everywhere, I mean just search for the term "cooking temperature" on Google images and you'll see a bunch of nonsense.

But even using it just for weather, this is still not a good argument, as the perspective of hot and cold is very very subjective, and changes constantly. To me, an outside temperature if 10C feels freezing cold in September, but it's reasonably warm in January. Or an inside temperature of 24C will feel amazingly cold on a 42C July day, but super warm on a -10C December night.

They seem good on paper - every time I look for a phone on gsmarena's phone finder I get a few of their rog phones in the results. But then I look at the price tag and the gamer aesthetic, and I ignore them.

Podman not because of security but because of quadlets (systemd integration). Makes setting up and managing container services a breeze.

Hate to say it, but if they do chop off Android, it can only become worse as it would now need to make loads of money or go under. Both of which would be terrible for any end user.

And if they bunch up google play together with Android, it would result in even tighter integration of the two, which is how Android got bad in the first place.

Have you heard about them bombing Lebanon yesterday though, or even for the last few months? It got a passing mention and only in the context of "this might cause Iran to respond". And there's a few more flags on that picture.

A few months ago I needed to install Google home for something Chromecast related, so I quickly searched the play store and installed it. Loaded it up and I see an ad, what the hell. App opens and I realise it isn't Google Home, it's something made to trick me into thinking it was when I wasn't paying attention.

Google is letting their ads steal their own users from them.

Podman quadlets have been a blessing. They basically let you manage containers as if they were simple services. You just plop a container unit file in /etc/containers/systemd/, daemon-reload and presto, you've got a service that other containers or services can depend on.

All public companies are, it's just what Boeing makes things that fall out of the sky if they mess up, so it's more obvious.
