Except they can be hosted by the person/company making the software. This always seemed more trustworthy than AUR to me.

Of course there are also community PPAs that would need the same scrutiny as AUR packages.

From the picture, it's just the context menu key with a new key cap.

The kernel has drivers for very old hardware. It was news last year when support was dropped for i486. That is a 25 year old CPU.

I'm some ways yes, in others no.

They've been slowly removing power user things that once set Android apart from Apple. For example, a few versions ago, they stopped allowing apps to disable WiFi. I liked having it off when away from home.

The device manufacturers have to send the driver to Microsoft to get them signed. Windows needs some sort of drivers available out of the box. Might as well keep them up to date with the signed versions.

It's been this way for some device types for at least 20 years.

Is the windows partition is still there? You may be able to use one of the repair options from the install media to re-add windows to EFI instead of a full reinstall.

Th Galaxy S5 and the Active versions before it were waterproof and had a removable back to get to the replaceable battery pack.

As an added bonus, the back had a rough, soft plastic surface so you could actually hold onto it without a case.

It was early in wireless charging, but the back could be replaced with one that haf the charging coil.

Same but different. The site sold out and made some changes that were good for investors, but bad for users. It also happened to slashdot. When that went bad, we all went to digg.

Looking back, I'm surprised reddit lasted as long as it did. Digg and slashdot still exist, but aren't what they were in their heyday. I'm sure reddit will continue in some form.
