“buy”

So renting is not an issue! Or as a Service…

So many options left. Next time I talk to big red I’ll ask the rep about his interpretation of this training.

;)

If your phone is powered your location can be tracked. Secured or not: your location can always be tracked.

The rest is doubtful, always assume law enforcement has access at will.

Just don’t bring it.

Not that guy but another: No. You? Because Microsoft is a lot of things but walled gardens is something out of Cupertino. Not Redmond.

You can call MS shitty and I would fully concur but a walled gardens it’s not.

You don’t need ad, Exchange/outlook, m365, entraid. They’re nice for most users but you can live without and use other services in their place on any MS platform.

Now, iOS… Have fun with that.

Never. I sold these things long ago and learned quickly back then they are just scams.

You being lucky is an edge case.

No no no no. No.

You ever played DOOM? And i dont mean the recent incarnations, i mean the original one.

No Parry. Only damage and more damage. And lots of endorfines. BFE.

I hate parrying.

Eve just fucked around blowing up shit. Like everything Apple.

Wall-e tried to clean the world.

Untill I saw UP. I just broke at that first scene. It’s just such a fantastic tale about life and the journey it is.

Up, wall-e, Toy story 1-3 are Pixar prime.

Vista was great. It just needed double the ram which was standard back then.

There are still functions of Vista MIA in w11. It was far ahead of it’s time.

So…we say the same thing? The bottle or the materials get reused when there is a deposit?

Err, the fact that you get a deposit back when returning the bottles means they’re most certainly NOT single use.

PET flasks are very easily recycled. Easier then glass. There is a whole industry built on it!

Here in NL we’ve had this system for as long as i can remember. (Im over 50)

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?

I think he is old, like me and means aldus photostyler. Which was light years ahead of adobe in background separation.

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.

You only been in 1.

9/11. That was our JFK moment. The rest? SSDD.

1. Blockbuster didnt exist in the EU.

That’s. Uh… the entire idea of a kickstarter.

It may crash and burn. Don’t want that, don’t back anything on kickstarter.

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 should look hard and long at Intel Arc if i was you. Those are nice and a clear move up the ladder from where you are at. And they are reasonably priced.

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.
