More specifically:

  adb shell pm list packages
You can sort it alphabetically by piping it through the "sort" command, like this:

  adb shell "pm list packages | sort"
The still do, at least in Indonesia. You can get prepaid SIM card that is pre-cut from Mini to nano, you just pop out the size you want...

You can also buy an adapter to convert the smaller SIM to the larger ones...

I got mine from my mom when she was in Abu Dhabi, she cannot believe her eyes when she sees him, she said even his mannerism is mostly the same as mine. The guy seemingly disturbed by my mom's observation and left the place.

I'm from Indonesia.

The first generation of android one's phones (the ones that released in India and Indonesia, powered by mediatek mt6582) have this. They even sometimes have the monthly security update early (for example, the November update is rolled out in late October).

Sadly, the newer generation does not have that. Google given up the update to the vendor, which in turn do what they do best, not updating the goddamn phone.

I got a T620 plus for $100 repurposed as a pfsense router (added an intel NIC card). It's neat.
There's many accessories that rely on bluetooth nowadays: smartwatch/smartband, headset (moreover with the newest trend of ridding the 3.5 mm jack), etc.

> If you check the specs for the Node, you'll see that Macs are listed as unsupported. Does this mean OSX-only or BootCamp as well? Who knows?

BootCamp is fine. Watch this review by Linus for more details: https://youtu.be/JirCwapScUs?t=5m54s

Yes, the NOGAPPS Project[1]. I used MicroG on a Galaxy Mini (tass) running Android 4.4 based ROM. It is a bit tricky to get it running, but I got some of my paid apps running afterwards (I sideloaded the apk, extracted from my backup).

Using the phone with Google Framework and modern OS made it so slow, MicroG (at least when I used it) didn't make it any slower.

I found the Galaxy Mini thrown by it's owner, picked it up and flash the ROM for shit and giggles...
