As a side note, I see that the Note 14 Pro as the jack as "unspecified". The 13 still has it, let's hope they keep it around

Why the downvotes?

Same feeling here. On paper, we hit a mature product a while ago (Samsung s10e is usually praised as a very good smartphone), and it seems that manufacturers have been trying to push gimmicks since then to keep people interested.

But if you look around you, most people use phones for 3-5 years without any issue.

Linus has released the 6.11 kernel. ""I'm once again on the road and not in my normal timezone, but it's Sunday afternoon here in Vienna, and 6.11 is out."" Significant changes in this release include new io_uring operations for bind() and listen(), the nested bottom-half locking patches, the ability to write to busy executable files, support for writing block drivers in Rust, support for atomic write operations in the block layer, the dedicated bucket slab allocator, the vDSO implementation of getrandom(), and more. See the LWN merge-window summaries (part 1, part 2) for more information.
