Why is it that we have decided that making apps is too hard, so ads are now common on apps. Subscription or IAP models too. Why? It's not like the app needs constant updating, at least for the simpler ones. I don't need ads or payments for a calculator, technology that we've solved since the 2000s.

Before people complain about anything political, the aircraft crossing the runway was told to stop multiple times. This was not an ATC problem but a pilot problem. This has nothing to do with the FAA layoffs.

My biggest concern for others is don't do it if you're not willing to do some of the work yourself, especially with re-learning how to some things.
My own concern is always "I hope it doesn't spontaneously combust and I'll lose everything."

Garuda + KDE. Came from Ubuntu (+ Gnome), so. Garuda is Arch with QoL stuff which makes things much more tolerable.

I've used the calculator thing on the iPad. Phenomenal, by the way. But that's the only thing I've used.

And no, this is not right nor left. I don't care. Pick the correct solutions, not sides.

Instead, with VKB I can get their joystick which lets me keep all my axis from the Logitech 3DP I have. Then, I can upgrade/add to my throttle, panel, or pedal setup as I wish, and customize their placement. They also let you buy the stick itself, so I can switch from a right to a left handed model.
