I was wondering what happened to the Discord IPO. Discord already went to shit, I don’t know what else an IPO could do to it? More restrictions?

Prices are coming down, but they won’t come down a lot until more people buy it, but more people wont buy it unless it’s cheaper…

Here’s hoping there’s some more restrictions imposed on meat.

Only a matter of time before plant-based alternatives fully take over from meat. Meat farming is not sustainable, as you mention all the land used to farm food for animals could be used to just farm more food for us directly.

We just have to get rid of the stigma around plant-based “meat”.

32, you?

I’d say no. It’s a pretty simple thing to remember and a pretty important thing about yourself.

Is it a big deal if you forget? No, but I for one don’t think you should be forgetting.

Most average phone users don’t give a shit about bezels, weight and stuff, they just buy whatever is put in front of them. If Apple came out with a new iPhone that was heavier, thicker bezelled, slower, people would still buy it because the truth is, they don’t compare anything or look into it besides “this is the latest”.

Speed is such a none issue, all mid-range phones are plenty fast enough for the very large majority of people. Buying flagship phones with the fastest SoCs is pointless to them, they will never get value from it - they just buy them because they are the latest “best shit you need” and they cost a lot more than a Fairphone.

Now the value of replacing a battery on the fly (whether broken or just for more juice) would actually be a lot higher, people used to do that in the past. The ability to repair the phone yourself wouldn’t really matter to most, as they usually just take their phones to a repair shop anyway, but the cost of the repair would be lower.

The Fairphone has a great mission, one that all phones should be going after. They are expensive for what you are getting in terms of specifications, yes, but the company isn’t large enough to make them any cheaper without sacrificing the point of them in the first place. It’s fine to not want one, but comparing them to flagship phones, the same way you would compare an S24 to an iPhone 15, is actually unfair. Not to say you can’t critise it, I think the software is the weak point and some issues were clearly highlighted, not unfixable though.

If price wasn’t a factor and you just handed them to average people to use, then they would most likely be satisfied and would find value in it.

Just shows the lack of knowledge LTT have really. They just dont understand Fairphone at all, or even how people use phones apparently…

But one thing it also demonstrated was peoples will for power and recognition, no matter how small. They enjoy being mods, it makes them feel above others, so there will always be someone willing to trade morals to take the position.

If I have to contact support to do any mundane change to an account, my email usually begins with ‘Delete my account’.

Ubisoft lost it after AC Brotherhood.

Ah got ya, yea read into that selling, certainly a weird situation.

Just ignore the “triple A” industry and games are usually great. Lots of small passionate studios still pumping out quality stuff.

So these are just re-releases of Simple Mobile Tools?

Well that was just attempted murder.

Is overtime in this sport an extra hour of ads and 5 minutes of actual play?

Saying please to an AI is funny to me. But I guess I will be the first to die in the robot uprising.

Or maybe saying please got you the correct answer and it’s a lesson to always use your manners!

Its not AR, an AR headset is something like HoloLens, this is just a VR headset with your eyes on the front.

If they are, then this vision pro is truly extortion.

VR requires a bit of setup, which is off putting. I dont have the space to have mine out all the time, theres also a shortage of high quality games. Waiting on Valve to push the envelope again.

Most modern headsets have passthrough, its not some new feature. It is the part that Apple focused on though.

An overpriced VR headset.
