Atleast in charging standards that Oneplus and that some manufacturers use called SuperVooc, two battery cells are charged simultaneously. Whilst fast charging is inherently bad for the battery, it's not that bad as it's made out to be.

This is the only true answer here. Answers like Bandcamp (which hardly has a repository big enough) or switching to Tidal aren't practical. OP paid for his music, and deserves access to it.
I have Amazon Prime as part of Prime Unlimited but holy Christ, have I never gotten their web app to stream in Linux. As long as greediness on part of these lousy corporations live on, piracy would remain the only true option.
IIRC, one can integrate Tidal with music players like Strawberry on nix too, I think.
Samsung isn't under any sort of pressure. No one is forcing their hand to give updates. Their entry level phones still get 2 years only. Mid level 4 years. Where Samsung loses is price competiveness. Emerging markets are very price conscious. Chinese OEMs offer way better bang for buck than Samsung ever does. Heck, for a random mid level price, a Chinese OEM will give OLED screen, 120 Hz display (which Samsung has only for Flagships) and way faster charging(with an actual charger; and no, I don't believe Samsung gives a darn about the environment by not bundling chargers, they only do so so they can sell their massively overpriced chargers).
Ironic that the entry level Lumia 520 was more modular than these attempts.
I wouldn't hazard that. The average Joe is not going around installing random apps from third party sites until they are actively looking for it, like modded games or stuff and get a virus in the process. Many such reported apps have very low download counts on Play Store and in fact, just fly under Google's radar. Google tries to present Play store as a safe walled garden but often fails.
Sideloading xpi's is possible on Iceraven as well. I used Smart Cookie Web preview in the past but it was slightly lighter in terms of feature set then.
Huh, I am hearing this source for the first time. I mostly used Mobilism and most of the apps from there used to come clean on Virus Total as well.
I also thought they had stopped making phones until I saw this review. But looks like their smartphone division is a shadow of its former self now. I think it is their only smartphone released this year, and there are no update promises either. There is a 3.5mm jack and micro SD slot which is good to have at this price point, but nothing really distinguishes this phone. I am not sure if this is an international release or just available in certain markets only.
I think these guys might be able to hack through the process and get stuff done and think getting other people to follow them will be trivial as well. But just because they didn't mess up, doesn't mean other people won't. A large majority might end up hurting themselves if they follow in their route.
Churchill had a negative view of all kinds of people. He is quoted as saying I am in favor of using poisonous gases against uncivilised tribes or I do not admit ... for instance, that a great wrong has been done to the Red Indians of America or the black people of Australia..
As for Bengal famine, when the then Viceroy of India asked Churchill about this, IIRC, he replied that if the famine was so bad, why wasn't Gandhi dead yet?
Many defend Churchill as a person of his time but that is contextually untrue. The Vice President of US, Wallace under Roosevelt found Churchill's views very condemning when the later started boasting about English superiority to him as well.
