So this is interesting… My favorite of the definitions of “opinion” I found is

belief stronger than impression and less strong than positive knowledge

Because I was about to say that it’s impossible not to have an opinion, which might not be entirely correct.

In DBT we were told that there are helpful, consequential and inconsequential ehm… evaluations? Assessments? Judgments? I don’t know the exact translation. Anyway, an important thing I realized then was that opinions/values etc are not something you form consciously, they just kinda pop up in your head and change shapes depending on what you learn and experience. You are able to detach from your opinions, look at them from the outside.

edit: so what I ultimately wanted to tell you is that you can do this detachment thing with other people’s opinions as well.

Played it again right after they stopped releasing updates this year. If you don’t play it expecting an RPG or immersive sim, it’s good.

I like Phantom Liberty even more. They didn’t attempt to compromise on anything regarding the game genre anymore and just made it a shooter action adventure with a cinematic story, which plays in it own little open world area.

2077 is one of the few AAA games that doesn’t feel completely soulless. It could’ve delved deeper into the philosophical “what if” aspect of the Cyberpunk genre though.

Also they should’ve made the badlands story part with Panam it’s own game, in retrospect it’s what I enjoyed the most out of the base game.

The guide is on the site they linked. It works, I did it a few times. They have to mirror the LTSC installation files unfortunately, but there’s a guide on how to verify they’re genuine if you don’t trust them.

What do you mean by that? You don’t lose gaming performance when you use win10 over win11. Why would you?

There’s Windows 10 LTSC, which gets security updates til 2027. And IoT Enterprise LTSC, which gets security updates until 2032.

“But should you even use those versions?!? They are not meant to be installed on a desktop PC/laptop” - idk, it’s either this or Win11.

For more info on how to install, check https://massgrave.dev/windows_ltsc_links

I wish they would stop releasing updates and DLC for Stellaris, so the modders have a version they can tinker with.

In a perfect world, every dollar we spend goes right to the creators who made the creation.

In a perfect world, shit’s created without someone having to create it to make money. A market without middlemen is still a market.

At first glance I thought this was an AI generated pic of some nonsense again. I think the internet fried my brain.

What custom keyboard do you use, and which layout?

I wrote about battery drain in response to another user who had issues on Graphene, even though this is a general Pixel issue, and has nothing to do with Graphene. The modem chews through the battery if you don’t have good connectivity, although I’m not sure if that’s still a big problem with the 7’s and 8s. It definitely is with the 6.

Personally, I had problems with adapting to the “don’t try to be a power user” philosophy of Graphene. I was used to flashing ROMs, rooting and customizing the hell out of my previous smartphones. Then I suddenly had a device which just… worked. It’s still an odd feeling, but I got used to it.

Just wanted to add to the other users unique experiences. From the perspective of someone who was a “the only good phone is a phone which is one small mishap away from being bricked” kinda guy

Yeah I do have a similar fear. Valve is something special. I tried to hate them, they’re filthy-rich corpos after all, but I can’t. Something of value will be lost when Valve finally succumbs to enshittification, which cannot be said of a lot of other big companies.

But my fear isn’t necessarily about Steam. I have like 20-30 games in my library. Steam is simply the least shit way to play games you have/want to pay for.

I’m on Graphene too and I once read that the modems used in Pixel phones are pretty trashy and drain a ton of battery. If I filter my battery usage by system, it shows that network standby almost consumes half of my battery charge (~46%).

Maybe the other guy here is right and it’s a VPN issue (too)? idk. Anyway, I didn’t really found a solution for this except leaving my phone on airplane mode at night.

why do most communist States have this knack for massive intelligence gathering on its own citizens?

Corporations have this knack too. Everybody in power does. It’s just that one privately owned corporation can only reach so far.

Pls Rito don’t ban the toxic players, keep them in League and Valorant you’e like the SCP foundation or some shit. Don’t just release them inters back into the real world I BEG YOU RITO PLESAE
