Not OP, but I looked her up:

She’s a “former Philippines mayor, accused of ties to Chinese criminal syndicates and money laundering” (Reuters). I guess the tech part is the SIM card thing?

While this is true, algorithmic feeds virtually guarantee that echo chambers exist within a platform already. Fascists won’t leave YouTube because they feel it’s “too woke” or offering varying viewpoints, they’ll leave because the people they already watch there tell them to go to the other service. So I think it’s possible Elon attracts the fascists, destroys YouTube’s ability to monetize that part of their algorithm, and consequently have to improve service for others to try and ensure other fringe echo chambers don’t follow suit.

Arch Linux has a very strong reputation as the best Linux

I use arch btw (well, cachyos). I don’t really ever text anyone or even talk about it online though

Edit: CachyOS edition:

CachyOS Linux has been working with a variety and a lot more features to improve performance

Reading the article I’m not sure why I should t use ZFS on a boot drive. The author does, and was able to set up a nice incremental (encrypted) backup solution that was able to get them back up and running relatively quickly.

Only thing I can think is the manual nature of it maybe? I don’t see how btrfs would be better here based on the article unless I missed something perhaps?

That’s a good point, I don’t remember much ghosting on those. I guess it might depend on the phosphor used. If it was tuned to only fluoresce for that imperceptible off time and no longer it would probably work.

I guess it’s a similar idea to quantum dots, but if those quantum dots fluoresced for just a bit longer.

I think this would result in some pretty intense ghosting and other undesirable artifacts.
