Streaming in general is great. Streaming services are a mixed bag of results, but overall our options are excellent at this point in time. You can have streaming services with no contract, pay for one month and abandon it if you don’t like it. There are also numerous FREE streaming services with lots of great content.
It’s important to understand the above in the context of how it used to be before Streaming was an option. There was basically only the option to have a cable or satellite TV on contract, or use OTA antenna TV, or watch everything on disc / tape. So yeah I think streaming is great.
Having said all that, I buy anything I want to keep perpetually on disc. 4k Blu-ray for movies and CDs for music (I bought 3 albums on CD over the last couple weeks). Games don’t fit on discs anymore so I try to get stuff on GOG when it works out.
Mine works fine without mods on the next-gen update. It’s looking much better than before on my widescreen monitor. I used to need mods to make it work in 21:9 and unlocked framerate, and now it’s all supported by the stock game so I’m pleased with it.
I did have a crash to desktop bug until I disabled the Weapon Debris graphics setting though. That was my one lame hassle that happened with it.
It also wouldn’t help for Congress to ban “assault weapons” because it would be soon declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court, and that would overturn all the state-level bans already in place. Which would be a victory for gun rights and the principles of individual liberty that we should all celebrate.
I used to use those Moto Gestures on LineageOS BTW. There were many good Motorola phones supported by custom ROMs.
The only gesture I don’t have that I would like to add back to my android is the old Motorola hatchet-chopping motion. You’d hold the phone sideways and chop the air like a hatchet 2-3 times and your desired action would execute. I used mine for the flashlight and it was constantly useful.
Shit I’ve been using Android phones since version 2 and never needed any replacement launcher. The apps and files are right there where I need them already, easy to access with a couple of taps.
No, the Index still has a higher resolution than the Quest2 and earlier standalone VR headsets, and the Index still has a class-leading 130-degree field of view and 144Hz refresh rate. It has excellent sound and the best VR controllers on the market. It’s still an overall great VR setup for those of us that have good gaming PCs.
I’ve been playing Dark Souls, Elden Ring, and Cyberpunk 2077 in VR on my Index recently using mods. It’s fuckin’ awesome.
Right but you can’t buy one of those, they aren’t on the market. What Valve has currently is excellent already but you can’t walk around town wearing it (as if anyone would need to)
Yeah no shit. Standalone isn’t as good as wired because you can’t fit a bigass Nvidia card inside a VR headset.
The Valve Index is here already and great. No bullshit like the Quest, just VR that works well. If you have a gaming PC with at least a quad-core and RTX 3060 then you should be good to get started with one. Mine works fine on a 9-year old gaming PC with 6 cores, 16GB RAM, and an RTX 3060TI. The motherboard is that old, the rest of the parts are newer (mostly GPU)
Whatever, you can believe that if it makes you feel good. I’m good either way.
You want to reduce everything into simple concepts just to argue about them. Reality is not that simple, and that’s clearly not all that I said about the subject. There’s no need to make up your own version of “what I said” when what I actually said is still there in plain text to read in the past comments.
So what? I said I don’t know already. Do you want to keep on all day about this?
Go ahead and just believe whatever you want about all this, you will do that regardless of what I say.
Likewise there’s nothing you can say that would change the facts of reality that I’ve already stated.
I have another idea, which is that I’ve said all that I care to say about it already and reject your attempts to continue arguing.
You can just carry on believing whatever it is that you want to believe, as that’s what you’d do regardless of whatever I said anyway.
I don’t know, just some mixture of African and Mongolian would be my guess. It would be more appropriate to ask the people in that picture IMO.
Did you miss the whole section with the tree of races, showing the genetic differences in them? Maybe you didn’t make it all the way through?
It think it’s debatable about how you define Races, but it’s also quite obvious that biological races exist. There are specific differences in the physical biology that separate the races, and common traits among them that identify them as part of the group. Skin color, hair type, bone structure, genetic predisposition to certain diseases, etc. Physical traits are passed from the parents to the children, and when the parents are of different races we get blending of the characteristics and so on. Some Native Americans even have different kinds of teeth than European-Caucasian descended folks do.
Basically it’s not something you can choose or change, it’s an immutable biological set of characteristics. I don’t know what “race” the Jews in Israel are exactly but I suspect it depends a lot on the region their ancestors are from. Many of them might even be the same “race” as Palestinians.
Race is a well documented biological fact actually. It’s not subject to political interpretation.
Shouldn’t be any problem. I’ve been doing open source ROMs since android v2 and it works fine on AT&T and Verizon.
One caveat is to make sure you have VoLTE working on stock android before you flash a new ROM. Sometimes that must be activated on the carrier with stock android to work on LineageOS or GrapheneOS
