Straight up, I’m planning to wait for reviews and some patches to roll out.

I’ve been playing Bethesda games for awhile and every single 3D game made by them has had some serious issues on launch.

And don’t forget to use encrypted messenging apps like Signal.

And do your research into which apps, programs, etc have the best encryption.

Yep it’s the association for sure

But also a factor (for those that know) is that companies will pay for their ads to run to specific demographics of people based on the data that a advertising platform (Twitter, YouTube, Tinder, Facebook, etc) has gathered to determine specific things about you as a person.

It’s the whole concept behind targeted ads. You pay for eyes that will see it and are more likely to purchase your products due to that demographic data. Or at the very least, view your website for traffic that can be used to harvest more data about you so that it can be sold to other companies.

As someone who grew up in rural Washington on the threshold of populated Washington, yeah shit gets pretty fucked really quick in those rural areas.

It was a really religious area as well so that really didn’t help. The local religious people have a strong belief in having as many children as possible as soon as possible. The running non-joke (because it’s common) about it is the first kid to turn 16 drives the 3rd van.

Personally I think it’s more related to the current recent climate stuff and the failure of the G20 summit to come to an agreement on the climate crisis.

Edit: I accidentally a word

I’ll have to check the stream out later but thank you for the heads-up

Vaush is pretty based even though he can come off pretty rough

It would take quite a bit of energy to effect things on a global scale but it could cause some issues at a very local level.

Depending on price I might go for it

I did spend like $40 on a battery for a 10 year old laptop a few years ago so that I could keep using it for troubleshooting a remote network I setup up awhile ago because it’s cheaper than a new laptop.

Personally I’d see if you can find a new compatible battery not necessarily an OEM battery though as being new it’s probably going to last awhile.

I’m curious about their efficiency drop off if that’s what happens after 25 days.

Not it

I feel you on that

I miss the days of sd slots, headphone jacks, and removable batteries.

Phone cameras are pretty good now though and the Xperia has a damn good one

No worries, many people overlook them or forget to bring them up all the time.

Hell this last election in my locality was with a hundred votes in some cases.

Talk to your neighbors, talk to locals, be the advocate for your community if you can. Even if all you flip is a single vote that’s a single vote more than before.

Hell it even had a headphone jack

Not too mention what even is the point of getting a flagship?

The cameras are great on most phones, the specs are good enough for most people’s use case (call, text, social media).

Hell the last few years the consistently best rated phone camera by users has been the Pixel A series of phones. The budget Pixel phones.

Also vote in local elections

They matter a huge amount for how your state, county, and city function.

An understatement really, it’s taking a bloody long time

Luckily I only have 87 different colors, so it’s going to take so much less time lol

When that music kicks in when you start a game of We Love Katamari or Katamari Damacy

It will always bring me joy

It brings me back to a simpler time of being a kid during summer and picking the game up for the first time with a former friend.

Though that former friend is no longer here, those memories of that summer will be with me hopefully forever.

I had lost those memories (and many many others) a few years back when I had a traumatic brain injury, and last summer when my AC was broken and I caught myself humming a some I didn’t remember. And after a bit of working on the song it clicked what it was from. I listened too a few songs from it and booted it up on my old PS2. And that intro music while sitting in front of my TV on the floor, brought me to happy tears as those memories of that summer started to flood back.

That’ll give me a use for my TrueNAS server that’s for sure. It’s got 24 cores 200gb of RAM and I basically use it exclusively for a NAS.

Now I just have to look into how to set it up.

It also doesn’t work in the mobile app, I’d love to see it work there soon too
