Irc works fine, people I know are there, and matrix has always seemed too attention -seeky for my tastes.
Irc still. No matrix so far.
Barred from what community? They are power brokers. They control who gets barred, not the other way around.
How about elephant jokes? There are so many of those.
Two angry men on separate occasions have made comments to me about masking and how I don’t need to do it. I just stare right through them and ignore,
I just say thanks, I prefer wearing it and I'm more comfortable with it on. That generally works.
but why are they so angry?
Might go back to the conflicting and stupid instructions we got when the pandemic started. The public health establishment lost all its credibility and continues to mess up.
Yeah I'm particularly wondering what the flagship hardware offers (ok, besides the camera) that is interesting. AI slop-enabling tensor cpu, no thanks. Is Graphene really better than LineageOS?
Try charging more so people will take you more seriously. That works surprisingly well a lot of the time.

Those sorts of jobs are filled from low-wage countries.
It's something of a "14 competing standards" situation, but uv seems to be the nerd favourite these days.
Florida isn't one of those states though, but on the other hand Trump's felonies are from NY and are under appeal. So OP's question is interesting.
I don't mean OM gives me a choice of routes. Rather, say there are two reasonable ways to reach the destination. OM chooses route A, says turn right, ok fine, I turn right. Then after a few seconds, OM changes its mind and wants route B instead. So it says take a U turn and go this other way, oops! But if you do that, it changes its mind AGAIN, and you end up going in circles.
Re downloading a subset of the maps: yes I can do that, but then I have to predict which ones I'll need, just another thing to remember. I have all the California maps installed so that if I suddenly decide to drive to Barstow or something, I don't have to figure out which counties I'll traverse, since they are all already downloaded. What I really want is to download ALL the maps, the whole world, might be 50GB or whatever, but that's ok, we can buy 2TB microSD cards now. If that download was a one-time event with occasional small updates I could deal with it, but I don't want to do the whole thing every cycle.
Anyway, as a development snapshot I guess OM is pretty nice, but I can't call it a finished product,
I'm on ml and it seems pretty general. It has a bit more fringe contingent than world, but everything else is there too.
