  • Nice. I think I do most of these. Have you looked into CalyxOS & GrapheneOS as alternative Android substitutes?

  • Hangs down, the best email client for IMAP.

  • It catches up with all of us eventually. One day you find you just have to start cutting back.

  • Jumped to Lebara once Three started charging for EU roaming. Uswitch have a nice plan with 21GB/month for about £8–9/month. Includes EU roaming. No lock-in or contract. I think it also includes some free minutes to dial EU numbers. Pretty much better in every way.

  • Same boat. Stuck with my Pixel 5 for now.

  • True, but I found a flashing colour more informative. I knew instantly what it meant. With an AOD I'd have to look more intently at the phone or bring it closer to my ageing eyes.

  • I tried the online multiplayer but it never clicked for me. I kind of enjoyed it, but everyone else was way better than me.

  • No, but I was considering switching back to having one. I had an iPhone + Linux laptop combination for a while, which makes getting your music on your phone impossible. Now I've switched to a phone with CalyxOS, getting my FLAC & mp3 files on my phone is doable again, so I might not go the route of getting a dedicated mp3 player.

  • Cryfs. I sync the directories with syncthing.

  • I think this is kind of the problem I have with Elden Ring. There's just so much grind. As much as I have enjoyed it I also resent it for blocking me from playing other things. I think I just want to complete it and move on. I don't even know if I'm still enjoying it, but now it's just a matter of honour.

    I've got so many other games to play. Something like Deliver Us the Moon is the complete opposite of Elden Ring. Short, but thoroughly enjoyable. I'm really looking forward to playing Deliver Us Mars.

  • I kind of miss it. It was discrete and useful.

  • Untrained dogs while you're out on a run is another level of hell. & there are so many!

  • Yup. Was going to write the same.

  • I think the arkenfox project website has some good info on this. For a good privacy baseline, you basically only need to enable strict mode and download the ublock origin extension, then change some settings for the extension (e.g. add filter lists).

    • Horizon Zero Dawn
    • Uncharted 2
    • The Last of Us
  • The sad thing is I'm not sure Labour will reverse (m)any of these policies if they take power in the next election.

  • I think you may just have to sell it & buy another one direct from Google.

  • The only winning move is not to play.

  • Just chain-watching horror films. Same as every year.
