I was a lot better at chess as a 13 year old than I am as a 43 year old. Your mind runs way better when young. I used to be able to think so many more moves ahead than I can, now.

I use an apk called “Thunder” for Lemmy and it stays in apk for links, but doesn’t have ad blockers. Other than that issue it’s awesome for doom scrolling on here.
Holy shit. Have your ad block up in full force before clicking that link and getting forwarding and McAfee cancer.


I guess it’s how you interpret it? I thought it was a good ending and spoke to an endless loop of humanity and meaninglessness.


Two huge reasons. They want to charge you an extra $400 for phone storage that costs them $30 in hardware, Then also, if you have all the storage you need on your phone, you won’t feel like you have to pay for all that cloud storage every single month, essentially forever.


I still like the options and alternatives I can get from android over apple.
Also, I got a thousand dollar android that stomps the hell out of what you can have from apple for $1600. Hopefully their will be better alternatives by the time I need another new phone.


I had (still works, just retired now) the last Samsung flagship with a micro SD as my phone until 9 months ago. Note 20 Ultra. 8 miss my s pen, still, but Samsung has been charging too much for lazy trash phones for too long now, so I bailed.
I feel like it’s shenanigans. Seems a lil too cool to be real.


Sounds like something an airline would say.


Loved Chuck Norris vs abe Lincoln. “I gotta bucket full of my head and I’m about to make it raaaiiin”


Have you tried buying anything from temu in the past couple years? It was terrible. Now it’s terrible, but written in all caps.


I don’t think they’re unfair at all for charging, and the price isn’t outrageous or anything. It’s just something I can do without having. I have other ways of ducking out of ads or being tracked.


I hate monthly subscription anything, though. I don’t want to pay $5 a month to search for things. Duckduckgo is fine, and it also works with -


Yeah. Google started ignoring you more and more with it over the past like 5 years or so, but duckduckgo still uses it correctly.


By using the old ways of search fu.

Huh? Are you an idiot?


But only until the patents expire. They’ll run out of cancers to fix and then the money train is over. Not curing things pays off forever.
Also, if a cancer treatment that cures you is $200, 000, but a cancer treatment that might put you into remission or might cause you to die costs $175,000, your insurance company will only help pay for the $175k one.
Unless a CEO was recently shot.


It is absolutely great for that. I watch movies, videos, and tv shows way more than I take selfies or video chat. I don’t mind one bit that the camera quality suffers a bit from it. I also love that the back of the phone is completely smooth. I bought two glass screen protectors and put one on each side of the phone.


On the plus side, all the game companies are going to finally start optimizing games and quit pushing out more and more demanding shit. A big win for smaller devs and creative\fun game developers too. My steam deck and old PC gonna keep on winning.
Not to mention they’ve been getting literally double the price for their cattle for a while now.
