This is largely due to deliberate underfunding by a succession of governments taking ~~bribes~~ lobbying from private healthcare firms.

The FxTec Pro 1 is the closest I've found these days; it has a slied-out keyboard and an unlocked bootloader so you can run LineageOS or Ubuntu Touch (PMOS support seems spotty).
The keyboard isn't as nice as those on phones from ~2010; it's a bit too big for the thumbs to really fly and sliding it in & out is not as effortless as it should be, but nless you count Unihertz's blackberry-likes, there's really nothing else around that comes close!
Do you have any evidence that Russian espionage backed the far left before 2006?

This is the conclusion of the article (and presumably the researchers) but I don't think it necessarily follows.
It seems to me equally plausible that one group were more interested in the craft of an accurate depiction, while the other was more interested in the arrangement of a pleasing aesthetic - both could be considered "solutions" to the given task.
Will you produce a keyboard with full size up/down arrows?

Wikipedia says "The airstrike was carried out in the mistaken belief that Italian mechanized troops were stationed in the village. Once over the target, the pilots mistook the market's awnings for military tents." (Carlos Saiz Cidoncha, 2006)

The EU has received at least 69 shipments of Russian LNG in 2026. At this point, who isn't trading with Russia?

Imgur is blocked in the UK, and last I checked blocked connections from VPNs too.
Which scene are you referring to?
Does anyone have any examples of using this in the wild?
I have fond memories of IRC channels full of all sorts of bots; the Matrix and XMPP rooms I've seen don't seem to have nearly as many fun automations.

Does this run on bare metal? Are there any plans to include graphics primitives?
As another comment suggested, Lua seems to lend itself to certain kinds of projects. This looks like it could mesh well with my forever project to rewrite userland in Love2d!

DeltaChat are moving away from "classic email" in favour of the ChatMail protocol.
I wish someone would fork DeltaChat so I can keep using it as a client for "classic email".
It could be interesting to see if it would be enough to add shell history as a completion source.
Fish shell does this too
Inequality necessarily reduces living standards for those at the bottom of the heap.
When the person at the top has more than they can spend on necessities and luxuries, they put their money to work. That means buying assets and driving up their prices.
Some assets are fairly divorced from the "real" economy, but enough filter through to extract wealth from the masses who have to work for a living as eg. spiralling rents, inflated credentialism etc.

Offtopic: Anyone else noticed an explosion in this kind of comment over the last few days? Not just here but all over the web.
I sure hope it's just bots...
The FxTec Pro1 is the only sliding keyboard phone of the last decade. I have one, it's not perfect but it is quite good, and better than all the other recent keyboard phones!
This trite comment obscures the long history of transatlantic ties on the far right, from American businesses supporting Nazi Germany[1] and Hitler drawing inspirations from America's immigration, segregation and eugenics policies[2] through the murky events around Operation Gladio later in the 20th century[3] and into the 21st century "dark enlightenment" hyper-online right[4].

That's a myth, all the breathless reporting of an "exodus of millionaires" comes from one very dodgy report.
Of course, the narrative suits the wealthy owners of the media, so the story gets repeated anyway.
