I bet we’re 1 generation away from cheap “clones” with (pure) Linux on them.

What do people need? A A57 octo core, 8GB RAM, 256/512GB storage, and a 100€ screen…

Throw in the usual stuff (sim, gps/galileo, wifi, bt) plus maybe a card reader, swappable batteries, audio jack for us nerds out there and the craze can be done with.

300€ from china (made in eu/us for 1100€ coming next decade)…

Good or bad, I see it coming! (Just after the linux desktop 😁?)

Any examples of those rare books?

Edit: of course not, what an absolute shit article. “If you don’t dislike trashing a book you’re a bad person!!!” Basically. What an ignorant idea. The article linked in the first “article” (the first contains 0 information) isn’t much better, large companies buy books nobody wants, scans them and discards them.

Guess what librarians worldwide do? Well they don’t scan the books before sending them for recycling.

So an overly emotional trash headline to generate that sweet anger and engagement IMO.
