If I recall correctly, it has been released for moile on and off as experimental builds. Last time I grabbed an APK, it wasn't ready.

Put any person who has zero computer experience in front of a windows computer or Linux computer and I doubt they would say the windows computer just works and the Linux one doesn't.

I did this experiment on my own kids. They find Linux more usable, and find it hard to believe people tolerate Windows.

There's also some indoctrination involved.

But they have access to both, and they prefer Linux. I think that the "Windows is genuinely easier" argument doesn't hold any water anymore.

Sure, but it's not quite the compelling argument it used to be.

Today, I'm not sitting here pining for old Linux software that stopped working. And the small amount of old windows software that did finally stop working actually works now only works on Linux with Wine.

That's another of the decision points that finally switched to fully favoring Linux, for me, in the last decade.

There is such a law, but many of us feel that Microsoft has proven malice a few times, when it comes to open standards.

I'm pleased to report that all those other promised utopia frameworks turned out perfect, and aren't in any way still a huge daily pain in the ass. I expect no less from this time around. Computers are finally smart. It's great.

It's the AI that is prone to delusions, or was that just me?

A little more time and a lot more money. But the savings will be huge. The savings will make the current era of extravagant burning piles of money look like a sound investment. You'll be glad you got in on the ground floor...

We do need a little more time, though. And money.
