i wish there was a regex filter for "If 'X' happened instead of 'Y', it would be all over the news!'. Such an annoying thing to read every day about anything.

Same boat. I did get the zenfone 9, and did the bootloader unlock before they removed the tool, so I'm good for a while. I was looking at new phones, though, and seems like the only viable replacements are the Sony VI and whatever the next google pixel is.

i have a similar thing; when i shave my face, my brain instantly starts thinking of the game 'Empire Earth'. Dunno why lmao

gotta break userspace the first chance you get. if you let the issue linger longer, it becomes a big splitting issue, ala python2/3

Bad move. once the heat dies down, they have no reason to divest

true, that is the fundamental flaw of decentralized anything

Honestly might be an interesting way to do a tiktok-like. Video hosting is super expensive if its centralized; it takes up so much space and has to be super compressed. If instead everyone who creates content also ran their own instance, then federated with a big normie instance, it could conceivably work. The creator would host their content forever, the normie instance could host it for a short timespan to boost visibility, then viewers follow the normie instance and any creators that they want to see more of (and have archives of their own videos)

my brain revving up my programming engine during the first sentence, then squealing off track into the crowds by the end. Great bit
