Sure, if you completely skip every other word in the paragraph and have the reading comprehension of a four year old.

Hey I know that guy! He was the stuntman for the 'Rock DJ' music video.

We’ve had more than enough performance for 99% of our applications for over a decade.
But when hardware gets faster, developers get lazier and software gets slower.

My old iPhone 4 ran great on iOS 5, but after updating to iOS 7, it couldn’t even show the keyboard without stuttering.

The total number can be broken down to 6 * 1,000,000 + 6 * 100,000 + 6 * 10,000 + 6 * 1,000 + 6 * 100 + 6 * 10 + 6 * 1.

So you could think of it as a number with 6 millions, 6 hundred thousands, 6 ten thousands, 6 thousands, 6 hundreds, 6 tens, and 6 ones.

They just wanted any 7-digit number with 6 ‘ten thousands’ in it, eg: 1,060,000.

Putting a six in all of the positions fulfilled the question’s requirements without actually proving whether or not they understood the question.

Yes... Extremely heterosexual of him to want to stare at a man while he plays, rather than a woman.

Depends how paranoid you are, what services you use, and what information you're fine with them having.

If you have google play services installed, it won't really make a difference if you use the play store or any google apps, they already have full access to your device.

If you're using a ROM without google play services or any google apps installed, then Google will have a harder time getting any useful info from you.

However, many apps will use google analytics, firebase, or another google service within the app itself, so its very unlikely you'll be able to completely prevent google from obtaining some limited information about your device/app usage.

Signing in to google within a browser could allow google to link your account with that web browser's fingerprint, so if you visit any sites with Google analytics or other google services, google could determine what sites you've been visiting.

Your best option is probably to use some FOSS apps for whatever google service you're using in the browser.
Or, use those web services in a separate browser to the one you use for everything else.

Meh….
It was good for making development easier for indie developers, and the graphic fidelity was nice, but it didn’t really open many new gameplay possibilities.

Shitty take.
Oh, you can’t afford to pay 5x for your medication? I guess you deserve whatever hate crime comes your way then.

I hate Facebook/meta but Zstandard is fucking nice.

Yeah I thought so too. You don’t have to buy your kid anything they ask for, it’s your job as a parent to set boundaries.
Unless they’re trying to make the parents think of burgers less often, so they’re less likely to buy crap for their kids.
Either way, it seems like the government is doing your parenting for you.
