    If you see a generic looking product on Amazon or eBay by a brand whose name seems like it was created by a random name generator, it&#39;s probably cheap Chinese junk. To be certain you can search up the product itself, most of the time sites like Aliexpress sell generic unbranded versions (for less money).

    In terms of living with my mum? She doesn&#39;t mind; I do pay her a bit every month to compensate as well. In terms of moving? My dad doesn&#39;t care, I have a feeling that he wouldn&#39;t even come to visit me. My mum obviously both doesn&#39;t really want me to go and wants me to live my own life so she&#39;s ultimately fine with it. Honestly, living with my mum hasn&#39;t been easy for the last year. There&#39;s just so much petty drama happening between her, my sister and anyone who they...

    It had no impact on employment? What&#39;s with the mass lay-offs at nearly every big software company recently, that just happened to coincide with their push for AI then?

    GNU/Linux is an OS Kernel on which many **many** different operating systems (called distributions) are built. It&#39;s quite a bit easier to think of Linux as a family of operating systems, though. Are you thinking of getting into using Linux? I would recommend checking out Linux Mint as a beginner friendly distro with a familiar interface.

    How about you give me $1 Million AND the car, and I promise that I&#39;ll use Edge for an extensive* amount of time!

    I&#39;m intrigued by the Titan 2 Elite. Never owned a Blackberry myself (or never used one as my main rather) and I do type a lot on my phone so it would be an interesting experience to try the Titan. Looks quite nice as well. I heard that Unihertz isn&#39;t exactly the best at supporting their phones, though, and I&#39;m not a big fan of Mediatek either. The Communicator looks good, too, but I&#39;d rather go with a brand that has a history of making phones, rather than cases.

    &gt; This was on my work computer. Oh god. The IT department must hate them. I wonder if they would do that with their personal machines as well...

    Kinda unrelated but I do have a PinePhone a mate gave me a while back; no matter what OS you use on it it&#39;s sooo slow. Weirdly, the [Android port](https://github.com/GloDroidCommunity/pine64-pinephone) actually seemed the most usable... Now, I realise that the PinePhone isn&#39;t exactly a phone you&#39;re meant to daily drive, but even then the performance is terrrible.
