     I already have an NFS server on my local network but I might just start using syncthing for my phone. ADB push commands just work tho.

     @dushman @hor32 @sapphire I had an iphone for like a year, if I used a phone like a normal person I would use it with no question. That said I don't use a phone like a normal person, so Graphene is a good compromise.

     @mischievoustomato @dushman @hor32 @prettygood long road started with the M1, ARM procs are filtering down to higher end Windows laptops, expect the first ARM SoC for desktop within 2-3 years

     @mischievoustomato @sapphire @prettygood @dushman @hor32 Not that long when you consider its ubiquity in embedded computing save for laptops, which is currently changing given the most highly valued company in history is going all-in on ARM laptops successfully. Not to mention the increasingly high usage in servers due to low power usage.

     @tadano @mischievoustomato @dushman @hor32 @prettygood Corporate Linux already lost the ARM race to Apple, sorry chud. Macbooks are resurgent in the office, about half of my (very technical) department has made the switch and our sales and support staff are close to 80%

     @sapphire @prettygood @dushman @mischievoustomato @hor32 Shit, even workstations are starting to adopt ARM chips (see: Ampere Altra). IMO once corpos see the writing on the wall and starts compiling the industry standard stuff for ARM x86 is cooked. I guarantee you Valve is currently doing work to get Steam and its library running on ARM officially too.

     Does leave an interesting opportunity for corporate Linux to beat Microsoft to the punch. As of now Windows RT still sucks balls and I can't think of any Windows-only industry standard shitware that's recompiled for ARM.

     @tadano @sapphire @prettygood @dushman @hor32 It's very wishful thinking, it's not really gonna happen, I really doubt it. Apple being stingy is good imo, keep stuff separate and distinct, stick to your vision.

     Also, funnily enough, Steve Jobs wanted Dell laptops to be able to run MacOS, and essentially begged the Dell guy to make that happen, but it never did.

     @sapphire @prettygood @dushman @mischievoustomato @hor32 Interesting that Macbooks are eating the office market alive rn, though I am unsure if it'll wind up being dominant long-term. Apple is stingy with letting Mac OS running on anything but their hardware and there will be a large market for lower-cost ARM laptops. If corporate Linux could cut a deal with ARM laptop manufacturers and get industry standard stuff running a killing could surely be made.

     literally does not matter, we're paying about what we pay for Dells with support contracts for MacBooks with Applecare and MDM, and we don't even have to pay for antivirus on our windows machines

     @tadano @mischievoustomato @dushman @hor32 @prettygood we're running out of the ability to pump more power into processors so as processes get smaller, its MUCH more advantageous to put a bunch of smaller RISC chips that do very specific things on one SoC than to have a general purpose processor that can do everything
     Since you can't pump infinity watts of power into a processor, its much more efficient to have a separate "processor" for every instruction and just turn them on and off as needed. Allows you to only "use" 5% of the processor in any given cycle while still getting 100% of the on-paper efficiency
