Gamemania still exists? I always enjoyed browsing through the games there, nowadays all my games are digital so I don't have a reason to visit a physical store anymore

For what its worth, my Sony Xperia 1 VI didn't come with a lot of google apps and it was easy enough to get rid of those. Obviously play services and some other stuff remain, so it's not a degoogled phone, but it's alright. Sony asks for some analytics stuff, but that's all very easy to deny.

Sony also makes it very easy to root, unlock and flash your phone, with an official guide on how to do that. It's not as easy as installing graphene OS, but I'm sure somebody will built lineage or something for it at some point

Edit: Here are links to the official documentation, Sony makes it pretty easy to built and flash AOSP

That's still not free from Google's control of the chromium web engine

That would be awesome, I still have hopes that it will somehow be possible to put Linux on the vita, but that probably will never happen

PSP2?

Fair points, although I'm not sure that's easy to solve. Some teachers are more interesting than others, but schools, especially middle and high schools are too generic for a whole class to be able to listen. Not everybody is going to enjoy chemistry class, while others are just not going to be happy in PE or foreign languages (me). I think a major rework of the school system is required for this to be kind of solved, but it'll never go away completely.

I think putting all the responsibility on schools is not the right approach, they're probably already doing their best, but that just doesn't work on every kid

Not on mine :(

I learned this the hard way when I lost all my fan profiles

I'm not advocating for allowing phones in schools during lectures or anything, but it's pretty clear to me that an outright ban is an outdated solution that will only hide the issues instead of solving them.

While I don't disagree, social media is the problem and what are schools going to do about that, except for banning phones? You also can't compare getting distracted by a pen or piece of paper, to a phone with bright colours and notifications, specifically designed to be as addicting as possible

That's 74 degrees Celsius for the rest of the world

What does that have to do with the picture? There's probably a speaker underneath

Apparently there are 9000 people playing on steam right now. That's not bad!

Same in case of the audio chipset, the popping is so annoying

Yuzu used to run better so I just kinda stuck to it, gotta try ryujinx out

Probably, but it runs pretty well and is at least still available

No birds (wife: ew)

I don't know how birds are ew, but I think they are off the table

No you can also move the words "push" and "win", so you can swap them making "rock is win", you can then touch the rock to win the level

Wait, Renault doesn't ship anything outside the EU?

So what happens if we open all fire hydrants at the same time

You can send me money, I'll have to pay taxes on that
