Yep 100% agree. The umpires don’t always get it right, but in a game that swung not what you want to be seeing.

Did you have one of these phones? Because I did. I was one of those that experienced this controversy first-hand.

Most people complaining I’m guessing have very little direct experience with Apple products. Although maybe you do and just have different expectations that 5 year old tech should work the same as a new phone. We still have an iPhone 6 and the original SE in the family. My high school kid uses a 2011 MacBook Air with no problems and I have a 2014 MacBook Pro as a backup laptop for work. These devices last a long time.

Where they did fuck up is not explaining what they were doing, and the slowdowns were probably more impactful than they expected.

I know I’m going to get downvoted to oblivion here, and people love to hate on Apple. But this was in response to older phones with old batteries sometimes not being able to keep up with the demands of the latest iOS and features and unexpectedly shutting down. So they would “dampen” the demands to keep them running.

We want to keep our old phones forever but we also want them to do the stuff that the latest phones can do. Something has to give.

This is litigation culture run rampant.

What I really want is a South Park couch co-op game to play with my wife, preferably some kind of childish humour RPG.

Do any of the South Park games so far have this?

I’m pretty sure this is a /s, right? RIGHT?!

Yep agree. Even if it’s super reasonable now, just wait until they've got everyone. It’s the enshittification of the auto industry.

I thought we were just basically training google’s image recognition AI by selecting the squares it asks etc. Nothing to do with security (in practise).

And what a lot of people don’t appreciate is that often it’s not just one drug. When you’ve got serious medical shit going down you might be on many drugs. That’s many scripts and something running out every week or two it feels. So this really helps.

Video games and heavy metal I found is good for my mental health

My teenage kids love Outer Wilds so much. They speed run it on the weekends when they’re bored.
