"As you may have gathered from the relevant press over the last few days, we at TUXEDO Computers are working on an ARM notebook with a Snapdragon X Elite SoC from Qualcomm"

That definitely looks like an attempt to protect themselves from lawsuits, but I doubt it would be that smooth. Maybe not in US, but in some jurisdictions it might be against the law — even if they put it on the terms. At some point EU will probably still sue the shit out of them and to settle, they would back down at least on some of it. And same as with GDPR for US companies, it would happen worldwide.

@dushman
There was time when I didn't want to own a phone because of their software (I hate both Android and iOS), now I don't want the hardware either 😆

@RustyCrab @mischievoustomato @Zergling_man @MoeBritannica
That is a valid question — I don't have an answer for that.
Some probably value their work low enough and don't care, some fool themselves into believing that Adobe has dignity and they won't see AI-generated derivatives of their designs in weeks from now, and some… will sue them sooner or later 🤣

And of course it could have happened with vim and emacs too — but those don't make installing plugins as easy as scrolling through endless pages of stuff barely understanding what you're doing and clicking this and that… and maybe that one too please — and forgetting about this for ever, never revisiting the list of what you have installed.

@Zergling_man @RustyCrab @mischievoustomato @MoeBritannica
True, but if you're a designer, you have to do that too — and if you still have to pay for Adobe stuff, it makes sense to use it for everything: it integrates really well and you don't have to think about format interoperability.

Besides, the linked page mentions live wallpapers — maybe that is a good use case for it on a phone 🤷

@RustyCrab @mischievoustomato @Zergling_man @MoeBritannica
Photoshop wasn't perfect at that either, it just got gradually better with time. I wonder if GIMP and friends are any good now when you're preparing something for actual printing, usually you don't give two shits about this stuff when you're doing images for web, but free tools used to be rather bad when working with colour profiles and all that 🤔

Were Googly-eyed fuckers desperate enough so they'd pay bloggers to promote WebPee? 🤔

Kinda hard to believe that this was written out of genuine concern and in good faith 🧐

I would make a perfect Rust dev — I always speak in superlatives

@RustyCrab @Zergling_man
I've always wanted to figure out how it works myself, but my current carrier doesn't discern them and provides me with a unified plan that I can use both from the phone and from devices connected to it — and it's pretty generous, considering that I barely leave the house, I never run out.
Yeah, my best guess is that phone isn't your friend in this scenario and marks this traffic itself, but I wonder how that is even possible if you're using a VPN connection 🤷

@RustyCrab @Zergling_man
They indeed shouldn't be able to tell apart traffic inside the VPN tunnel are you certain that your phone's own traffic isn't detected as tethered when it's using the VPN connection for its own traffic?

@neko
They have these foldable thingies — kinda what flip phones used to be. I've never owned either, can't tell if it feels like a real thing or not.

I think I knew someone on DeviantArt with a VERY similar art style, but it was long time ago and I don't remember the name 😋
