Could be a hardware issue. I am running the same and haven’t seen any of that stuff. Sucks that you have though

Weird. Which model and OS is this happening on?

Interesting, I would have guessed that being left handed would make the placement better. I’ve heard people don’t like the button placement but it doesn’t bother me. I have an iPhone for work as well and as far as I can tell the buttons are in the same place so 🤷

What does that mean to you? I hear people say this all the time about various devices but I haven’t come across anything my phone couldn’t run in over a decade. I haven’t had a flagship or top tier phone in that whole time either. Are you talking about actual functionality issues or just theoretical stuff and benchmarks?

I’ve been using a FP6 for over a month and I have no idea what you could be referring to

You mean the shitty games? Oh no…

Damn, I guess he can’t play the same game that’s been rereleased annually for 20 years then huh. What a bummer

The fact that people don’t like Skyler is intentional. At some point you’re supposed to ask “why am I cheering for the drug dealer over this woman”? That disconnect is a huge part of why the story is so engaging. They make you root for the bad guy over the good guys, even when you shouldn’t.

I love it. Perhaps it would have been more effective to just do whatever they did to the swings at the other parks? Either way it’s good stuff

Who uses edge though

Seems like we could all just mellow out a bit. You shouldn’t need to be afraid of saying stuff that isn’t perfectly pc now or in the past. Obviously there’s a difference between an off color joke and shit you would find in the Epstein files but I’m not particularly concerned about anything I’ve posted coming back to me. I’ve had bad takes (I’m sure I still do) and said things in the past that I no longer agree with, but who cares? That’s what life is like. You change over time in more ways than one. If someone wants to judge me harshly for that then we probably don’t weren’t going to hang out anyway so fuck em. Let them react how they want.

That being said, the implications of this kind of technology being used by corporations or the government are quite different. There may be value in what you’re saying from that perspective.

Whoever wrote that prompt seems to think that other nations having their own ideologies is the worst thing possible. That’s a common attitude regarding geopolitics that I’ve never really understood, especially from a Western perspective where differences in opinion are supposed to be seen as valuable (at least in the theoretical sense).

That kind of thing is funny if done infrequently but annoying if it’s all the time. I hope your friend does actually laugh a good chunk of the time

Amazon isn’t the cheapest option in many cases. What you’re saying makes sense if people shop around, the problem is that they generally don’t.

Haha do what works for you. I was able to get into them after a long car trip where I forced myself to listen to an audiobook. After finishing it it got easier and easier the more I did it. Now I barely read physical books.

Interesting, than you for sharing. It sounds like your use case is indeed very different from mine. Do what works for you

Are you talking about an NFC payment app like Google wallet? That’s not called a banking app in the US at least. A banking app is made by a bank and is essentially only used for checking account balances and transfers between accounts. Why can’t you use a credit card with an NFC chip in it?

Not off topic at all. I have never heard of it but it sounds interesting. Thanks for the tip

Then refuse to participate. Use open source software and any other kind of system outside their control until they throw you in jail. That’s what I’ll be doing. If enough of us do they can’t jail us all. Participation is consent.

Where can you find the kind of support you speak of? I rarely call any kind of customer service line but I haven’t seen anything but the bad kind in over a decade
