gollark: Okay? I'd like to be able to, and I'd like it to be possible without expensive specialized equipment.
gollark: Also, Linux on DeX is... cancelled or something.
gollark: <@151391317740486657> It's not the only bad thing. phones are also nigh impossible to repair and more expensive (per computing power unit or whatever) than a desktop/laptop.
gollark: Hmm, good idea.
gollark: That would obviously be bad for power users, but most people... aren't that, annoyingly.
