Why would they do that when they can use this as yet another push to move people to windows 11.

It would be nice if the prisoners could take class or earn a degree while in prison, at least when they get out they have a new skill or a degree so they have a better chance to get a job to pay off their prison debt.
Highway, all lanes are completely cut off, at 2 am, with no nearby street lights in sight. Those drivers probably didn't even see it coming. Even if you're a drifting god, you probably can't escape it unless you can jump the guardrails like the speedracer to the opposing lanes. After a pile of burning cars lit the area, people noticed something was off and started slowing down and avoided doom.
The books they loaned are loaded with DRM though, which make it unusable after the loan period expires, so it's not like they're handing out unlocked pdf en-masse like z-library. They probably thought this restriction was good enough and publishers have enough goodwill to let it slide during the height of the pandemic.
For comparison, I run a thinkstation p300 with i7-4790 (TDP 84W) 24/7 and the power usage looks like this:
Even when idling this old processor still guzzles 45W. Certainly not as nice as GP's that only use 10W during idle.
Power scaling for these old CPU is not great though. Mine is slightly newer and on idle it still uses 50% of the TDP.
The term "Android" itself is trademarked and can't be used by hardware manufacturers without passing certification and paying Google.
Xeon E5-2670, with 115W TDP, which means 2x115=230W for the processor alone. with 8 ram modules @ ~3W each, it'll going to guzzle ~250W when under some loads, while screaming like a jet engine. Assuming $0.12/kwh, that's $262.8 per year for electricity alone.
Would be great if you have an isolated server room to contain the noise and cheap electricity, but more modern workstation should use at least 1/4 of electricity or even less.
I thought cops wearing chainmail was ridiculous, but maybe London police should have something like this:
Technically you can't call it "Android" without paying Google for certification and play store/gapps license. It's AOSP.
When I was a teenager, I made a page in Word, saved it as html, then uploaded it to geocities. Good times.
