In theory, there are known pros and cons to using titanium over more traditional metals, but the outcome will largely depend on Samsung's design and manufacturing processes. Titanium has high corrosion resistance and the highest strength-to-density ratio of any metallic element. This means it can help manufacturers create lighter phones and wearables without compromising…

Why? Because since the core system is read-only, it's far less vulnerable to malware and tampering. If you can't add anything to the operating system, you can't corrupt it. In addition, immutable distributions use containerization for applications. This further isolates programs from the core system and each other. So, even if you do have a bad application, it has far less access to the underlying system than, say, a Windows application does to Windows. Another immutable Linux win is that it offers unparalleled…

Now, it appears that Meta has identified that and…
