@htdrake's aging iPad is giving out, so she's in the market for a new tablet. Having been radicalized here, we're reluctant to buy a new FAANG machine*. Does anyone have a Linux tablet they love?
This would be mainly for web browsing, occasional email, and some games.
*FAANG Machine is the name of my next band.

I owe you all the deepest and sincerest apology. It has been brought to my attention that my facts are enabling fascism and destroying democracy. I am especially sorry for the harmful facts stating that:
-Every month is National Potato Month.
-George W. Bush has a Foo Fighters tattoo on his back.
-Optimus Prime is the only heterosexual Transformer.
-The Lord of the Rings was filmed in New York City.
-Cher’s full name is Chernobyl.
I pray that you can all find it in your hearts to forgive me.
Emily Dickinson wrote nearly all of her poems in common hymn meter (alternating lines of 8 and 6 syllables, usually in iambic meter with an ABAB rhyme scheme).
That means you can sing them to the following songs:
- Gilligan's island
- O Little Town of Bethlehem
- Amazing grace
- Pokemon theme song
- House of the Rising Sun
- The Mos Eisley Cantina theme

@peterdarke@qoto.org almost managed to immobilize my Mk III Ogre by focusing his fire on my treads, but I held on long enough to eliminate all his units.
