To me, the appeal of Fair phone has always been it's repairability. And I think that they view the repairable aspect as a big part of their eco impact, as they intend for people to own their Fairphone for much longer and repair pieces as they need to be buying a new device entirely every 2-4 years.
My friends and I have been playing this since the recent launch. It's a lot of fun! The map rotates daily so it's a fresh challenge for you to explore every day. I'd recommend starting on the easy "tenderfoot" mode to get a hang of things first.
Adding work into the shower would diminish it's idea generating powers.
The reason we are able to come up with good ideas in the shower is that our mind isn't otherwise occupied by doing anything else. We aren't on our phones, watching TV, having a conversation, or working. Our mind has no obligations and the act of cleaning yourself doesn't require much mental load. So our mind is free to drift and think freely about whatever it wants. We don't have many similar times of distraction-free brain freedom in our modern lives.
Add in a task like taking a meeting, and now you've removed that key no thoughts head empty feature of showers that leads to the brain blast.
I never played the Tales from Borderlands myself, but my wife did and she really enjoyed it. She said it added a lot to the story lore presented in BL2.
I did enjoy the Walking Dead telltale game along with the Wolf Among Us, though.
I've been a big Borderlands fan for 10+ years. I played through the first one multiple times and loved it. My wife and I bonded over BL1 when we first started dating.
Was super excited for BL2, and have played it many times throughout the years.
But the pre-sequel was a let down, and BL3 felt soulless and lacked the same spark as BL2.
Tiny Tina Wonderlands was great, and felt like a return to what made BL2 so fun.
All that to say, I don't have high hopes for BL4, nor will I be paying $80 for it. It just feels like they're coasting off the brand name at this point and trying to exploit longtime BL players like myself.
On foldables like the Samsung fold series, is the taskbar supported in this launcher?
I used Nova on standard slabs, but nova doesn't support foldables. And I haven't found a third party launcher that still allows me to use the (super useful) taskbar on the inner display.
I'm also a Nebula subscriber for the same reason stated above. A lot of my favorite creators are on Nebula and either post their videos a week or two early on Nebula, or post extended versions of their videos on Nebula.
There's no ads or sponsorship segments, so it makes for a pleasant experience. Admittedly, the Nebula "originals" which are exclusive to Nebula, is a fairly small catalogue. But what is there is high quality.
The Nebula subscription is worth it for me to support creators and have a better viewing experience... And to see each Jetlag episode a week early.
Scavengers Reign. One of the best pieces of sci-fi I've ever seen. They managed to create a world that feels truly alien, and the environment has such complex cause/effect relationships. Highly recommend!
I've been following this and am intrigued, but the combo of the high price, crowdfunding, and lack of even a functioning prototype to show off has me skeptical enough to not throw down money in advance for one.
If it actually comes out and they don't go bankrupt during the design/manufacturing process, and if the phone is actually good, then I'd definitely consider buying one. I like the concept a lot.
I'm an American who visited Cuba (legally) a few years back. I paid for goods and was allowed to bring things back into the US. There were just monetary limits for goods on what you were allowed to bring back in. I believe products like rum, cigars, and coffee were limited to $100-200, but I wasn't asked to show any receipts or anything.
I find myself bombarded by notifications all day anyways, I don't also want my wrist buzzing along with my pocket. Since I work from home, I have my phone out on my desk most of the time anyways, smartwatch doesn't really add any value for me as I don't care about the fitness data.
I'm also a watch enthusiast, so smartwatches don't scratch that same itch as a traditional watch.
Separation of church and state is supposed to be a thing. Lawmakers praying inside the chamber isn't separate at all.
