10-18? I dont think that’s the age group we are discussing here…

What about those red ones that keep murdering me? Personally I like the blue flavor best

Now this is some boomer humor

I think lineage is probably the one, although that one doesn’t seem completely de-googled? I see some people talking about a version that is but something about signature spoofing and thats a security problem… I’m not sure what to make of it. I don’t want to do graphene because it just seems hypocritical to buy a google phone when I’m trying to stop giving google money and my data.

Fairphones look good if I can get one - I wonder if there’s a way to get the new one shipped to the US. I think my only hang up there is the lack of a wireless charger. I can get past that but I have a number of wireless chargers in my house and cars that I do enjoy. Weird that it doesn’t have it, and weird to realize it’s become an important feature for me.

You got a favorite? I’ve been shopping but degoogled non-apple phones seems to be a narrow region with many obstacles for the uninitiated.

Watch them put a fucking kill switch in it for people who do this. “This vehicle cannot safely operate due to damaged components “

Someone patented some shit, I think Sony maybe, where the tv would detect if you were making eye contact to continue playing the ad. I saw another where you would have to say the name of the product out loud to make the ad go away and play your show.

Reading this made my finger tips uncomfortable.

This game virtually never goes on sale, is 13 years old, and remains the best selling video game of all time. The development cycle for updates is painfully slow, frequently introduces “new” elements that serve no functional purpose, and the mob voting thing has been a disaster since round 1. For how much money they rake in these updates should be far more robust if anything. Mob votes should have been scrapped immediately in favor of releasing all 3 mobs that were to be voted on. It would have been far more interesting.

The sad thing is they probably could charge for these things and get away with it. However, there’s risk of dividing the player base, and a large part of the continued appeal lies in cross play support on basically every gaming platform in existence. Renting a server is probably a whole lot more profitable when little timmy can join on his ipad while older brother is on the playstation, his friends hop in on xbox, and maybe even dad joins on his overpowered computer. As soon as you charge for the updates all those people need to pay up to continue playing together.

The more I see these posts the more I think this was the strategy. They figured it doesn’t matter how dumb or ugly it is, in fact, that’s a good thing because it draws so much attention. I don’t see many on the road but man it sure is fucking noticeable when I do.

Hahaha a megathread even wow

Theres no real people here. OP will never see this
