no man, I wish it was. basically you paid for the base game for the pleasure to be grinding for guns unless you pay again every season another 20 to 30 extra.

I’m so tired of games that have the weapons you’d like to use behind a paywall I hope they all crash and burn. COD just as much as Battlefield. I might simply go back to playing CS 1.6.

well there is some Rust building up under that JavaScript… maybe that can save us.

battery life, the quirky watch faces, notifications and controlling my music while on the run. GadgetBridge supports it so you don’t depend on their apps. the pebble 2 models have an issue with the buttons. pebble time is fine. also, don’t use them in water.

I’m not certain, but given that I’ve not seen a lot of UI lag in recent android releases I believe they must have fixed it.

in iOS the UI thread is split from the rest of the compute, and runs at elevated priority if i recall correctly. this used to not be the same case for android. having said that, my android devices run just fine as long as they have plenty of ram. so, if you buy a flagship samsung it usually comes with 12gb ram. the current minimum I’d say is 8gb. used to have the pixel 4xl with 6gb which kept lagging… how the situation develops in 2 to 3 years and if 12gb is still enough remains to be seen. in general apple is better with long-term device support (up to 5 years). all this is of course very subjective and depends on ur usage and if u game a lot on ur device.

Thank you for providing this interesting insight. I didn’t know any of this. I hope JPL will be able to build up the necessary in house experience again to not having to depend on contractors. Maybe in the distant future mankind will be able to actually work together on this problem space instead of being busy with corporate infighting.

As Douglas Adams put it: most people where only concerned with the movement of small green pieces of paper. The amount of small green pieces of printable paper is completely and utterly irrelevant in comparison to the next milestone mankind can achieve and must achieve to survive. (My personal, admittedly strong, opinion of course)

If installed on your phone it will keep syncing your contacts, which is what most parties are interested in anyway (should be the main reason to uninstall). Your options are IRC, xmpp and matrix (element) if self hosted (matrix is somewhat in question about its origins).

If your OK with arm I’d say the macbooks and especially the macbook air are ready with asahi for daily use. I’m personally considering getting to run linux on as daily driver.

Dont worry, they will shut all that down eventually, dont trust google with any data you actually want to keep for a long time. Short term is fine.

Looks nice, but I moved to Joplin from my ancient evernote account recently. Joplin (fully #FOSS) and syncs via nextcloud, Dropbox or others and is fully end to end encrypted.
