  • As an oppo user I can only say: you're wrong. You're very wrong.

    Samsung one UI is a godsend compared with this.... This .. shit.

    Popups, tracking, insane ui choices. Half of the shit doesn't work behind a pihole which in itself is damning enough. Everything feels bolted on. Everything feels like its only there to check boxes. Nothing feels natural. Gestures here but not there. Apple style features in Android so half of the time you're totally lost: does this option still use standard Android logic or is this rewritten as an apple clone?

    I really feel tricked into buying this phone. Excellent reviews but the user experience is very lacking. Maybe all of the reviewers are apple users and are happy to see all this shit in Android but I for one am lost. I use Android because i hate the apple way of doing things. If i wanted an apple device I would've bought an apple device.

    I kept it because i thought it would get used to it. I did not.

  • Can we please, stop reposting this same shit pic for the last, I dunno, year?

    This is the gazillionth time. I get it. Is a stupid algea tank. where a simple tree does the same for a fraction of the cost. It's of no use in the public space except as a tech demo or art object.

    So. Yeah... Next?

  • We all knew. We gave him money anyway because WHEN (or better: if) he delivers, he always delivered good stuff. Wingco, wingco 2, strike commander, wingco3, 4, prophecy, starlancer and freelancer. That last one mostly.

    I gambled with money i could lose. Still doesn't think it was a wrong decision. Is my money gone? Yeah. It cost me, in those12 years, like 1 restaurant visit.

    I also gambled the same amount with elite dangerous. That one delivered. So 1 out of 2 ain't bad.

  • Although i think you're right, you too where once a kid.

    And. Tell me. What did you do with your money back then? Everything you bought was well thought out? You still use day to day everything you bought back then? Or where you just a child and did you buy candy, fireworks, some comics, that game console you sold 2 years later for not even half the price, that cheap rc car which broke after 1 day?

    Its a slippery slope. Just because something doesn't have value to you does not mean the same applies to someone else.

    Stuff like this can give kids a certain social standing in the brutal world of the classroom. That's something to consider also, group pressure, wanting to fit in. The need to be part of the group.

    Allowance is a learning experience. My son did the same, for years bought only fortnite skins with his allowance. Like you i warned him against it. But i never forbid it. He's 14 now and regrets it.

    He doesn't buy fortnite skins anymore. That's the end goal, isn't it? To learn and move on?

  • I was in the same boat. Then I decided that the 50x0 was a paper launch and the leaks told me that the 9070XT would lower or have the same performance as the 7900xtx.

    Then the 7900xtx dropped in price, clearing the channel for the new gen.

    Then I bought that.

    Ever since I've been wondering... Why didn't I buy this thing earlier?

    It's more then fast enough. The RT performance is above the 3080.

    Every 9070XT I can buy now is almost 200 euro more then what i payed for the 7900xtx.

    What I learned? Buy previous gen in it's "dying" weeks.

  • From a musk pov it's 100% logical. Money.

    Why? Win2k was quite stable. Stable enough to use it in warships.

    Linux/Bsd is not free. When you use it in your company you want pro support. That support comes free with windows enterprise licenses. So the cost difference there is almost non existent. And, MS being M$, they would've sweetened the deal. A lot. Just think of the marketing worth of this deal for MS.

    And lastly: Who is cheaper? A good linux admin or a windows guy?

    So 90% of the stability at 50% of the cost. That's not a bad deal.

  • I don't get this. Y'all should talk to a psychologist. Its a goddamn mobile phone. If you don't want to use a device's primary function maybe you should use something else to browse porn.

    And if talking to people makes you anxious and makes you feel violated or makes it feel like someone is disrespecting your private bubble...

    You should go out more. Without that gd device in your pocket because clearly, obviously to everyone else but you that device is hampering you, limiting you even hurting you.

    This is crazy.

  • Fyi, UK, NL, FR, ES etc all went with you on your "right of passage" sail throughs, against the chinese. Thats NATO.

    Guess who can do that all on its own from now on.

    Guess which countries also put sanctions on china? Your NATO partners.

    Guess where the machines most chips are made with... Are being made? (NL says hi.)

    If you stop scratching our back.. Why should we still scratch yours? The chinese market is double yours. We can make more euros there then in your tariff hellscape.

    Have fun having the biggest military for the time being. In a few years china has eclipsed yours.

    Trump's tantrums have made it very clear we should buy our military gear locally. So we will. Same will happen with cloud and tech. You can't be trusted. One day everything is ok, next day everything is +25%

    If this continues for a few more months it will mean the end of US hegemony. You will be left with nothing.

    In the end we will make peace with Russia, simply because we must. The oil will flow west again in a few years leaving you with all the problems of fracking and zero gains.

    Same will happen with china.

    We will be allright, bud.

    From an EU standpoint it doesn't matter if the US, china or even Russia is our partner. It mattered because of history. But trump's US chooses to flush it all down the drain. So we will check if the turd really went down.
