All but 5 look like cheap crap and I don’t like 5 for forks sake

Imagine having a thing like that but with a touch screen. Like, a rectangular assistant you can always carry with you! Oh, wait…

Being “up to date” is a lie big Debian tells people to make them feel comfortable about being behind on patches. Wake up people!
- Comment on The Fairphone 5 price has been dropped to €499. The phone is designed to be the most advanced environmentally friendly smartphone. 1 week ago:
… That’s because it comes with vanilla android, unless you buy the e/OS version or flash it yourself
- Comment on The Fairphone 5 price has been dropped to €499. The phone is designed to be the most advanced environmentally friendly smartphone. 1 week ago:
Probably don’t want to play graphics heavy games on it. For everything else it’s pretty much like any other phone. Although of course it’s not quite as premium as flagship phones. Hardware wise, a Pixel 8 leaves it in the dust. But you can’t swap your battery or really anything on that one.

- Comment on Elden King 3 weeks ago:
Sounds very plausible.
What’s most shocking to me is the extent. I drink about a single, sugar free energy drink a day, but they act like drinking a couple in a single gaming session is normal. It’s crazy man
- Comment on Elden King 3 weeks ago:
Shangri-la Frontier perfectly captures where the fun in video games lies.
It also has a weird obsession with energy drinks. To a point where you could think it’s a placement, but apparently it isn’t

If Axel Springer didn’t own a significant share in the company, I would give them a shot
- Comment on Europe’s GDPR privacy law is headed for red tape bonfire within ‘weeks’ 3 weeks ago:
The GDPR is definitely neither wits end, nor applied reasonably under all circumstances. I have my doubts that these “cutbacks” will be the adequate reforms however.
- Comment on Can't wait for the season 3 3 weeks ago:
The thing is, it’s not like we haven’t seen that a thousand times before. I actually liked S1. It was unusually gritty, with an unusually sympathetic and relatable MC who struggled a lot in a cruel world.
S2 on the other hand is the boring fantasy of some lonely dude. A totally overpowered MC faces a non-obstacle, waits till someone dies to create a false sense of danger, easily overcomes the obstacle while impressing some girl we hardly know and hardly will ever know, get a new summon to make him look
evenarguably cooler, repeat x3. - Comment on Can't wait for the season 3 3 weeks ago:
Can’t wait for another supporting character to never have any relevance
- Comment on GOG seems to be considering paid membership option 4 weeks ago:
1/3 of the Steam + Linux market, that accounted for an incredible 1.45% of Steam installs in February. This means there were roughly 67 Windows gamers for every Linux gamer (using Steam) that month.
So even if Linux gamers are 10 times more likely to care (and pay for) for game preservation, you are not even approaching the number of Windows users that might. Suppose 90% of Linux gamers care, while only 9% on Windows do, you still have roughly 6 Windows users for every Linux one. And this is a very generous assumption to make.
Maybe, eventually, at some point, this makes sense financially. But if your goal is to be profitable, you grab the low hanging fruits first, not invest in maybe 10% more potential users.
- Comment on GOG seems to be considering paid membership option 4 weeks ago:
What if I told you that the intersection between people who care and the 5% of their potential audience that are Linux users is very small either way?
I’m not saying Linux isn’t a chance for them, but it’s also an investment and very like not a profitable one for quite a while.

Since you can set temporary, server-only nicknames, you don’t even need to edit the page source or Photoshop to stage that

Jokes on you, I got mic and cam on a physical USB-switch. So unless I go in “conference mode”, your attack is futile

Hypothetical question! Does this mean a gamma ray burst could end our misery soon?

I said you can use a bidet. Or have a poopy butt and live in denial if you prefer
- Comment on I am a meat crayon 2 months ago:
You should consider wet wipes. They are a total game changer, if a bidet is not an option. When you think the worst is gone, use one (1). Then dry with normal paper afterwards. It’s great.
Don’t flush them before making absolutely, 100% shure they decompose tho! If you can’t easily tear them with your hands, no matter what the packaging says, they will fuck up your plumbing. This can get really expensive, so when in doubt, use a trash can.

I meam, this is true, but labeling all modern conservatives fans of monarchy is disingenuous. There are also fans of unregulated capitalism, racism, facism und probably many other -isms going around!

- Comment on Top climate scientist declares 2C climate goal 'dead' 2 months ago:
To provide a more positive view on the matter: Even if we reach 3C, as long as it is ultimately reversed, all efforts are still worth it. And there is still a chance everything turns out to be less grim than anticipated, if we accelerate our efforts.

I’m surprised that women told them it was for the military and even more surprised they still accepted. They had to be either desperate or Russian propaganda is also verfy effective outside of Russia.
- Comment on Protests delay start of German far-right party's key meet 3 months ago:
Ingl, 20% thinking it is anywhere near sane to leave the EU, or even just riscing it with your vote, is insane. On the other hand, politicians from the “center” parties have contributed to this by betraying people over and over and over again. I can understand how people get a “fuck you and everyone else” attitude under these circumstances.
It gives me some peace of mind however, that ~80% do not support this.
