I'm glad you are doing this. Pinephone and Librem 5 days are surely numbered, the hardware is just too outdated. My Librem 5 is also starting to fail, some times i can't even get it to power on without restarting several times. I will never use Android or iOS, they are just too exploitative and untrustworthy, so it's a relief everyone isn't completely abandoning the idea of a free libre phone.

When i think of Android i don't think of it as part of the gnu/linux ecosystem, but a heavily modified linux kernel turned against the user.

The problem with Android is it is very invasive and in my opinion untrustworthy. How many of these Android OS's from various vendors are not kept up to date, with unpatched vulnerabilities because they dump support to force upgrade their customers to the next model, when your phone should still be functionally viable. How many apps in the Android ecosystem are just info vacuums? It's a very predatory ecosystem and i would prefer a libre solution to these scumbag predatory corporations. It blows my mind how people are so numb to the abuses of these companies, they won't even consider alternatives. Iphones aren't a viable alternative either unless you're into joining abusive cults. I have both a Pinephone and a Librem 5, and they work fine if you don't mind horrible battery life, i just wish we had more alternatives and I'll put my money towards that endeavor.

Give it to them, though we'll have to eat the cost of the decommission factory. We should still think of it as a small price to pay to defeat Russia, who if wins the war will soon be breathing down Europe's neck, and next in line us. It's in our own self interest.

We have to wait on the judge in February for his ruling. He's already been found guilty, this time it's what the punishment will entail. Letitia James AG was looking for 370 million, and banning him from NY state real estate industry for 5 years.

Correction, the sons banned for 5 years, Trump permanently. Also they want to ban him from being an officer or director in NY state of a corporation.

Oh there's more to come when Judge Engoron issues his ruling and decides the penalties Trump faces in Manhattan. He could be out half a billion dollars in February with this case included. There's still more pain coming in all his other court cases to boot. This guy is getting what's coming to him and it is delicious.

14th Amendment Section 3
No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

Seems pretty cut and dry to me. It's preposterous to allow that traitorous criminal to run for any office. While it may cause individuals to rise up in rebellion again, for which they would pay a heavy price, the damage would be much worse should he get into office.
