The last Linux QWERTY phone was N900 which I still use. But that is 5+ years old. (Maybe you have N950 but that was not a really public release.)

"is needed because touchscreen keyboards remain modestly effective and while 'Voice input is an option"

So what about ... a keyboard?

Aren't the legs stretched out needlessly late? It does not seem to me they were already fully deployed and fixed during the final touch down.

Spreading even more the PHP plague is a crime.

On my 16-core (32 HT) Haswell the CPU usage is also negligible. But the goal of my past was to show it plays fine even on an ancient hardware.

4 years old i7-2620M: VP9 1080p takes at most 40% core (=20% CPU), 2160p takes at most 150% core (=75% CPU).

It will defend itself.

I was once told by a MS-Windows user that he would be fine (or even welcome) showing the extensions but he can't set it that way. As then when you click a filename in File Explorer for renaming and write the new name (sure without typing the dot-and-extension) the file loses its extension.

Googled some U.S. used car shop. For Model S I see 90% of price for 2014 model - similar Skoda has 70% price. It makes sense to me it keeps its value - the motor does not wear and the battery will be still OK even after 10+ years (when 7 y.o. Roadsters are 80%+).

You can check those with Tesla Roadster 2008 - resale value is high (USD 60000 - 50% of purchase price) and batter capacity is also still fine (80% and more).

No Apps => Noone buys it

Tizen runs Android apps by ACL; as I heard.

For the reception: Everyone has (or should have) his own primary MX SMTP server (or at least small groups of people have their own primary MX SMTP server) so no single point of failure (no single IP adress) can break significant number of people.

Initial SMTP server IP address can be localhost, what's the problem?

"leaving users in China with no way of sending or receiving emails" - SMTP has been designed so that it has no single point of failure. Why one poor webmail service failure can affect SMTP users in China (stated in general)? That's their problem if they made themselves dependent on some 3rd party service they have no control of and it is good they finally see it.

Providing all my WiFi hotspots unencrypted free for all around and I find my network perfectly secure. Security is ssh+openvpn one can use on top of it.
