In what kind of bizarro world do we live that 8GB of RAM in a phone is not enough? Also 6G is currently expected to be available around 2030, so 5G will most likely still work in 2031.

- Comment on Can you see yourself cutting off by a generation of gaming? 3 months ago:
It’s just like books, just because the are lifetimes worth of old books doesn’t mean I should ignore the new books. I read a mix of classics and recent releases, both usually through the library.
And it’s not like all the old books are interesting, same with games. Just because there is a lot doesn’t mean it’s all interesting, or maybe it’s not what I’m currently interested in.

Oh, you mean word endings for plurals, well those depend on the gender and the singular word ending. They can be a bit confusing, because they’re not always regular like local -> locaux, but naval -> navals. You have that in other languages too, even in english, like goose -> geese, but moose -> moose, mouse -> mice, house -> houses, and so on.
