  • Because sideloading is a fake concept developed by apple because they want you to think that you can only install from the app store. It is called downloading and installing. On android, you have the benefit of multiple app stores to choose from, not just one. You can also download .apk directly and install that. With iOS you are SOL unless you have one of the few jailbreakable phones, which will fall behind on security updates and become inherently insecure.

    Every one of those phones even in their standard configuration smack iOS flagships 6 ways to Sunday. I know this because I have used both, android since 2007 and iOS since 2012 to 2020.

    Yes, it is harder to break an iOS system, but android offers infinitely more freedom, and the UI is not bad either. If you don't like the UI, you can simply install another launcher.

  • airdrop

    sharing files between apple devices

    Uh, what about syncthing? Syncthing is literally better than anything apple has ever pumped out in the name of file sharing, because it is multi-platform and does it in essentially real time (configurable).

    Airdrop is borderline pointless too, it does pretty much the same thing as any messenger worth a damn when it comes to filesharing but has a much lower limit than most of them, both in filesize and filetype.

  • I mean, many of the Russians who are fighting do not want to fight, they are being forced to against their will.

    The situation with Russia and Ukraine is a bit similar to the one with Japan and China in WWII, except Putin is instigating the war and many of the military do not want to fight.

  • Yeah that's kinda why I recommended the previous model. The amp is pretty much the same and you can get them on eBay in great condition for about $400. The A55 is also a great choice that can be had for about $150, however if you want something cheaper that can stream, I'd check out the HiBy R3 or R3II

  • can cede high value land, lease ports

    They already do the second thing, and answer this, what EXACTLY is on that high value land you're talking about?

    you can manipulate who owns what if you own a majority of the coin available

    This is a blatant lie. I don't know who told you that. The closest thing to what you are describing is a 51% attack in which you have +51% of the network hashrate, in which you try to insert an alternate blockchain because everyone will have to do confirmations on you. This allows them to:

    • block transactions
    • double spend coins
    • prevent the creation of new blocks

    It does not allow them to steal crypto from confirmed transactions. At most, it will allow them to spend a coin somewhere and then yoink it to another address.

    You may point your finger and be all like "See! You just admitted it right there, that's PROOF"

    Nuh uh uh, not so fast buddy

    If you are using a reputable coin, this is prohibitively expensive to perform, and the thing about this is, you get ONE SHOT to do this.

    The thing that is comical about this, is that the government's mint has the exact issues you are describing right now.

    nobody accepts bitcoin

    And who's fault is that exactly? Besides, that's not even accurate to begin with. Some of the largest companies on earth accept bitcoin. Tesla for instance accepts bitcoin. Many smaller vendors accept multiple cryptocurrencies, hell, I've bought real world goods including food off of MoneroMarket.

    using exchanges

    Lol. Do you think I got my crypto from an exchange? Don't you think the idea of KYC defeats the entire concept of a CRYPTO currency? A currency based around cryptography? One that allows for privacy and anonymity on different levels based on which one you choose (which should always be monero or its forks)? Also, what do you mean smart contract? None of that shit matters if you transfer your coins to a wallet you own and get confirmations.

    If you are buying crypto from robinhood, first off you're fucking retarded, but second off that's not an exchange, that's a stock broker who is using crypto (that they likely are not even holding) as a stock.

  • Try going on a run with one of those. I have them too but they both have their places.

    Plus in my experience, DAPs tend to be able to fit bigger amps in them than USB DACs which is good for driving less efficient headphones.

  • distancing themselves by leaving

    Have you ever been in a crowd of people? Like a huge close proximity gathering, a concert? Try squeezing though that when they are all angry people without assaulting someone or getting assaulted.

    Also, the military and police are NOT colleagues, they are TOTALLY separate. Not even the same purpose, you can argue that they're brothers under serving a government, but by that logic then so are the postal workers, tax collectors, and judge.

  • Read the original comment again but very, very slowly.

    Also, the same can be said for anti-gun people as well. I don't even talk about guns on here anymore because every time you mention them, you have a bunch of snobs from both sides looking to start a big ass fight over shit totally unrelated to the topic.

  • They're doing pretty good, they just aren't a huge market like they used to be. It is a niche market nowadays.

    Typically you only see people buying one for one of three reasons:

    1. They cannot have a phone/do not want a phone
    2. They want to separate music listening from their source of contact (getting a phone call forces you from the music)
    3. They chase higher fidelity audio (only the case with quality DAPs)

    4 (bonus). Phone has no headphone jack, but that's usually only the case in conjunction with 3
