I got a Fairphone 4, thing’s survived many a fall. It’s a Shame that fairphone doesn’t ship spare parts to the US, makes sourcing those parts much harder.

A less confusing angle of it

28·3 months agoAh that explains it the best. Now I feel like Argentina has more claim than the UK.

45·3 months agoHow many people actually live in the Falklands? Looks like there’s mostly nothing on that island. Edit: Looked it up, it’s about 3,600. So an incredibly small population. Census shows over 60% of that population is labelled ‘immigrant’, so non-indigenous.
I know Falklanders want to remain in UK control majority-wise. I also somewhat get why Argentina wouldn’t want what is essentially a potential base of operations off their coast (though realistically they couldn’t really do anything about it even if they did have sovereignty over it).
EDIT: as mentioned in another person’s comment, Argentina also wants it for the fishing rights. The fishing rights area is fairly sizeable, but not, like, HUGE

At the same time, i can’t really make sense of why the hell have the british fought to keep ahold of the Falklands. Maybe just because the british just love collecting shit that means nothing to them but have major significance to other nations’ people? I don’t really get it.
Edit: someone mentioned that the UK wants to keep the falklands in order to maintain claim to Antartica. Weird but okay. Have not looked into that one.

Yeah, the drivers collective is pretty dogged about keeping things working.
GPU drivers are hella difficult to not cause breakage on, I expect. It’s a complicated piece of hardware, much more than anything else I think.
