Moto G Power is my favorite phone. Cheap enough I don't bother with a case. Durable enough that I haven't regretted not buying a case. The extra battery life allows me to keep using the phone long after the battery starts to degrade.
I've run a g power for 4 years straight, only replacing it because the phone had become unusably slow. My current 2024 model is still going strong and I have no plans to replace it.
But man I wish it were smaller. I'd be fine with it being thicker if only I could have a smaller screen.
Such a shame they ended up enlarging that series just like every other phone out there. I had the first generation of Moto G all the way up to 6 or 7, when they made it too large for my hands.
I'd probably kill someone (bad) for the 3rd generation Moto G but with modern specs.
I used GEOS unironically in high school. I had two 1541 floppy drives which really cut down on the disk swapping and I was able to do productive work. Ultimately I used my employee discount to upgrade to a Tandy 1000 TL that would boot into DeskMate from ROM and took it to college, leaving the C64 in the dust. I still have all the stuff but not the time.
There are tons of ways to make air gappped systems transmit data. They all include the installation of some malware and have become more expensive and less usable over time.
Back in the day with crt screens you could just capture the frequencies transmitted when creating the picture and look at the copy straight away.
No malware. No direct contact. And it worked over rather big distances.
The same thing killed electronic voting machines in The Netherlands.
No matter how well you argue that it is "perfectly secure", when some nerd outside the polling station is showing reporters a real-time feed of who people are voting for, your machine will get thrown out.
It wasn't quite CRT-level of mirroring, but it wasn't far off...
Best that can happen. People will be disappointed but that's it. If the IMs are still alive it can get really ugly really quick.
