English has the peculiarity of having two variants of the same word: "gender" and "genre" with slightly different meanings.

You could lean on it and go with genre. But just changing the word is unlikely to help much, the concept itself is deeply associated with genitalia in English culture, you'd still need to explain it.

Nothing will change in that sense.

There is already support for retroachievents, if you don't see it you're most likely on the stable branch.

Retroachievents only work on the dev builds, which are available on flatpak-beta. The readme has some instructions in case you need them.

You may want to look into gnome classic, it comes default with gnome.

It's not fancy or even popular, but it was made specifically for people like you.

Regardless of what the website says, waydroid isn't an emulator by any meaningful definition.

It's a container that runs on top of your regular linux kernel (with some very cool desktop integration features), java/kotlin applications run as natively as they'd run on your phone.

Heif is covered by patents in the mpegla patent pool of which apple is a member. They have a vested interest in it becoming mainstream.

It would depend on whether you think elop was a Microsoft mole al along 😉.

By the time of the Microsoft acquisition, focus had already shifted to Windows phones.

This is funny to think about.

Maybe there's somebody in China right now wondering why the customer would need something as weirdly specific as 6.35mm plate 🤣

No, the tape is an endless loop, the end is the same as the beginning.
