Είπα, γιατί μου σπάει το tcp_rmem, ε κάποια μαλακία θα έκανα, τι πείραξα πάλι πανάθεμα 'μαι;

E ή πιωμένος θα ήμουν; ΜΠΑ δε τα κάνω γω τέτοια λάθη δε πάνε μαζί, ε μετά απο το κλασικό κρυφτό και jourrnalctl με τα στάνταρ Χριστουγεννιάτικα λαμπάκια μου που άναψαν μιας και πλησιάζουν, τελικά ο Kernel αποφάσισε να ανεβάσει το buffer 4096, ρίχνω test τον παλιό περνάει, στον καινούριο "πιστόλι", μέχρι το 4096, καθίστε βρε παιδιά, μη βιάζεστεεεε, να προλαβαίνουμε το spoofing maintenance. Ένας είμαι δεν έχω λόχο πίσω μου.

Σιγά βρε...

Σε λίγο θα χρειάζομαι το μεγάλο πεύκο να σας προλάβω, μην τα κάνετε έτσι απότομα αυτά, έχουμε ευαισθησίες ναούμ, μη μας ρίχνετε τέτοια καρδιακά, δεν έχουμε και υποδομές.

@torvalds βρε σάτηρε, θες να μας πεθάνεις; Κανόνισε γιατί τα έξοδα τα αναλαμβάνεις.

Θα σου βάλω Madonna, πρόσεχε.

Linux phones: could they finally become a real alternative to Android and iOS?

After years of stagnation, Linux phones may be approaching a turning point.

In a recent article, Amos Batto explains how new hardware options, more mature interfaces like Phosh and Plasma Mobile, and tools such as Waydroid could make Linux phones more practical.

But better technology alone won’t be enough.

Projects like PINE64 and Purism have faced serious challenges. Building a phone is one thing; funding software development, maintaining hardware support and keeping a company afloat are much harder.

Jolla’s latest phone also suggests there is a market for alternatives, particularly among people who want more control over their devices.

Linux phones don’t need to replace Android or iOS to matter. They need to become a practical option for people who value privacy, software freedom and digital sovereignty.

Would you consider switching to a Linux phone if it supported the apps and features you rely on every day?
