I was a kid and my parents bought me a Nintendo and one game for it since we were broke as shit. so I grinded the game for probably almost a decade since my parents never bought me another console after that either. one summer in middle school I did this challenge and a blind folded run and was proud of myself but nobody cared back then
wait this was a challenge? I did this for fun by myself when I was a kid back in the early 2000s because i was bored one summer.
because I like pho
God damn I just bought a whole data center in Vietnam to VPN to for gaming specifically

damn calm down. I posted that comment only to piss off a bunch of nerds and looks like it worked too well on you. imagine getting worked up over 5 words on a Lemmy F1 thread…
thank God for the halo
Max is Verstappen? Bro better start going.
I work as a mobile dev. particularly in ad-tech and security. at my comp, marketers spend 10x more on ads to iOS than Androids in the US. meaning, more advertisers come to us and tell us we want us to target more iOS users with the budget.
and most do consider apple the benevolent do-good company and many do make the claim. Apple uses privacy as marketing and the result is many people blindly trust them and their devices or at least assume the competition is flagrantly out to get them. you seem to have your pulse on things but that’s not true for most iPhones users, even those who say they care about privacy.
you also can’t say it’s my feelings and then say it’s probably statistically true at the same time lol it’s is true and most people on ios still use Google front and center on their mobile experience.
while you’re not sure if that’s true, I AM sure it’s true. privacy means your data stays with you. period. the best option is not giving people your data to begin with.
almost every apple user says shit like this while using Gmail, Google docs, and the Google app on their phone and blindly giving Apple their data. let’s be real for a sec and not pretend most Apple users give a flying fuck that Google tracks them. if a user truly cared about privacy, they would eventually come to the conclusion that it doesn’t matter Apple or Google, privacy means not giving your data to ultra mega corps. so owning an iPhone isn’t adequate for privacy either. both googled Android and iOS give your data back to their respective companies. neither are good for your privacy. one day when Apple start changing their tune on privacy policies, Apple fan boys who have put their their whole lives into the apple ecosystem will realize they put all their eggs in one basket.
