PSA if your like me and would like to use a ROM but keep buying the wrong phones for lineage or /e/foundation. Now /e/foundation sells their own phones. They are coming out with a system where you could mail in your phones also. Here is the shop. https://e.foundation/e-pre-installed-refurbished-smartphones/

Thats cool, didn't know about that
@kravietz
Yes, but not so many devices are supported.

Android will never do that since its owned by Google and Google has Google chrome. Blackberry doesn't use android and they don't need to preinstall chrome, thats why they dont use it
@heroicstoic
Sure, why not

There is no need to take them seriously

I don't think that any engineer uses imperial system and takes pride in it, even GBR/US engineers know how stupid it is
@kravietz
I think not, it wouldn't make sence. Meter is very well defined in metric system with conditions when repeated will always produce same lenght. Foot for example isn't, it was defined as distance from some kings nose to his thumb when he stretched his hand (or something stupid like that, I don't remember well). You can't repeat those conditions and have same lenght, thats why metric system jumps in, it has concrete definition so imperial can rely on it.
@kravietz
This is logical, you have to have legal coversion table or else everyone would debate how 1 inch centimeters is, this is way of concrete defining.

Speaking for engineering part of users of matlab, its more used because there is no bother for installing and setting up packages for engineering use, good part comes preinstalled. I like python concept more, being free and everything that comes with it, but most of engineering stuff is made with matlab so students use it because they have literature for it and for specific problem they need to solve, so you get the idea why they stick with matlab although that is being changed in time.

This is something that is worth using but its not user friendly as classic gnupg. Hiding in plain sight would be for my standards using this tool and steganography:

I think that maybe something is wrong with your laptop, I have and still use laptop that is from 2014 and works fine with Ubuntu (even with Gnome), you can try Alpine if its better for lower end configurations as @hund@linuxrocks.online suggests but I can't help you with it because I didn't use it.
