  • I’m using Rocknix on an android handheld and it feels so powerful to be running 6.18 mainline kernel with all the modern features I want despite having to build stuff from source since the package manager only has a small list of stuff mostly meant for networking (Entware).

    Even though its in beta for my device (AYn Thor), it works so well after only 4 months of development that I’m genuinely reaching the point of perma install and removing the stock Android install from the device.

    I would pay cold hard cash for an OEM to do the same with PostmarketOS. Throw in proper open source kernel modules and use Steam’s upcoming waydroid fork for Android compatibility, and then throw that sucker in the market and watch Google try to litigate it out of existence.



  • Iraq already did that in Kuwait and it accomplished nothing.

    They even heavily armed the shore thinking the US would try a beach landing, and instead they were spammed with a barrage of missiles that stayed out of range of most of their batteries.

    Iran would struggle to minefield the strait with the US navy just sitting on 24/7 standby.

    Israel wants Iran’s current government to fall, the US just isn’t interested in doing a hard land campaign to accomplish it (yet).

    They want it quick and easy like what Trump just did in Venezuela, but that’s just not possible with Iran, which is why they’re still open to negotiations despite Netanyahu showing up to the Whitehouse like its his own home.

    The crux for the US is that trying to topple the regime via a military operation could easily backfire without a complete invasion. They’re trying to find a pressure point that will cause the government to fracture internally, but they probably don’t have any solid leads that could succeed, otherwise they would have done it during the protests.
