Switching to PinePhone for a noob
It seems it is possible to connect a docking bar to the PinePhone but I cannot find what happens next? Is it possible to show on a screen what is displayed on my phone or is it dual screen or can I choose? I love the concepts behind maruOs but I think the project is dead.

Available Today: Windows Dev Kit 2023 a.k.a. Project Volterra
>> So what exactly are “consumers” clamoring for that are not currently being delivered?
Until other choices are available, people tend to accept the default or keep on doing what was done in the past.
There is a segment of consumers that would like choices beyond Apple and Google mobile operating systems:

Personally, I would like to see more "convergence" devices that let the little computer I carry around with me be anything I want it to be: a programmable general purpose computer, a streaming media server, or whatever else I want.
There are some projects that offer such functionality, but most require expert knowledge to setup or are not very widely-adopted or not very mature:

How can I use my old Android phone as a basic computer?

Are any Android ROMs focused on Android's desktop mode?
I just found MaruOS. It appears to be exactly what I was looking for. They are a little small apparently. They support only Nexus and Pixel phones and one Samsung's device. Hopefully they'll have a bright future.

Use phone as desktop computer when linked to a monitor
So someone in this subreddit told me about Maru OS and that really got me dreaming about using my phone as a desktop computer when connected to a monitor. The Astro Slide with its dual boot capabilities and its two USB-C ports would be ideal for that I think.

Looking for a way to stream from Stremio (or other streaming solution) to hotel TVs while travelling: Looking at Chromecast/streaming sticks or some sort of Raspberry Pi setup. Any idea is appreciated.
My next phone will definitely be supported by https://maruos.com/ :)

Apple must open iPadOS to sideloading within 6 months, EU says
> Just imagine how much more versatile the iPad Pro would be if only you could run Linux VMs on it
After installing https://ish.app for Alpine Linux emulation on iPad, one immediately comes up with use cases, even though it's excruciatingly slow.
Hopefully Apple opens up the imminent M3 iPad Pros to run macOS and Linux VMs.

Ente: Open-Source, E2E Encrypted, Google Photos Alternative
They don't "allow" it, but most apps that need background execution just ask permission for geolocation tracking and pretend to use it, for example iSH[1]. There are a few activities that the app can do to prevent itself from being suspended when it goes out of focus, like playing sound, geolocation etc.

How to copy a file between devices?
Android: install termux, `pkg install openssh`, and preferably run `termux-setup-storage` to give it access to storage folders.
iOS: I think https://ish.app/ ?

How Virtualisation came to Apple Silicon Macs
This of course hasn't been true for years, eg: http://omz-software.com/pythonista/index.html
And you can run a C compiler (or anything) inside https://ish.app/ too.

ScummVM officially released in the App Store
False. iSH is an x86 "bytecode" emulator.
"Possibly the most interesting thing I wrote as part of iSH is the JIT. It's not actually a JIT since it doesn't target machine code. Instead it generates an array of pointers to functions called gadgets, and each gadget ends with a tailcall to the next function; like the threaded code technique used by some Forth interpreters."

There is an x86 virtual machkne running Linux available on the App Store now.

Now would Apple allow a full blown Windows VM is a different question

Stop EU Chat Control
There are plenty of solutions for running Python in an IDE on the iPad. There is an even an x86 emulator and a Linux terminal built on top of it in the App Store.
https://ish.app/
It can run anything that you can run on an x86 in user mode. I downloaded the AWS CLI (which requires Python) to run some tests
By the way, you were completely wrong about VSCode being written in .Net.
> That's just compiling the code to a native binary, which you would then have to go submit through Apple's store. How does that help for an IDE expected to allow you to test (i.e. execute) and debug the code you've just written ten seconds ago?
There is an existence proof that it could be done. If you ran iSH with remote VNC you could have a full IDE on a Mac.
> We can see right there some examples of what isn't allowed:
- ISH: Linux shell running on iOS/iPadOS, using usermode x86 emulation
- Lima: A nice way to run Linux VMs on Mac
