The comment I replied to suggested the opposite, that whatever decisions Apple makes, Android follows behind which isn’t the case in reality.
I understand your point though. It’s weird that people who use iPhones have this mentality that iPhones are at the forefront of innovation. I know some people who are aware that Apple is behind but the phone does what they require of it so they have no need to ask more.
I don’t think that’s true. Android has had more features than Apple for over a decade. People forget that iPhones didn’t used to have a proper file manager and the only way to put songs on them was through iTunes. iOS has been trailing behind Android in that respect while maintaining their walled garden.
I felt this with one of the laptops I put KDE Neon on. It had all manner of issues that never got a resolution.
South Africa used to be an apartheid state so if they’re callling you out…
What I’ve learned is that people don’t like to be told what to do even if it is for the benefit of those around them. I’ve seen it mostly in the US where the mask mandate was seen as an attack on personal freedoms and not a response to a public health crisis. As usual, people thinking they are the main characters. Just put the mask on and stfu, no one cares.
Yeah but that means more brown people across the street and our little village in Shropshire hasn’t seen one of those since Tony Blair.
Are you really saying that Israel really needed Switzerland’s help when they’ve been running an open air prison for decades? They’ve never needed help against Hamas.
Withdraw. Your. Support. From this regime if you care so much.
It is simply more acceptable to publicly support Ukraine. I have nothing against them protecting themselves but Ukraine and Israel are two different situations.
They may be dramatised but the Linux stuff he does by typing commands into the terminal is real.
Two guys is technically some people. Interesting choice to post an article from Times of Israel.
Clear explanation! I assume the overclocking is the reason why my monitor goes to 165Hz.
He became a lord after resigning as PM years ago, didn’t he?
James Cleverly, the former foreign secretary whose role is being filled by David Cameron.
Sunak doing the tried and true “there were good and bad people on both sides”. Yeah, I’m sure the 120 arrested is in any way comparable to the 300,000 that were there. The PM and (edit: former) Home Secretary are absolute cretins.
Why, what? Why is the goal important to me? I just feel like there needs to be a goal beyond just collecting for the sake of collecting.
Pretty much, yeah. Shoes have some utility which varies between the type of shoe it is but that’s typically not a reason to collect shoes, it’s just how I see them. I don’t feel the need to have more than one type of shoe for the task I need them for.
Action figures I can see from the perspective of nostalgia, I guess. My friend collects Godzilla/Kaiju/80s Sci-Fi figures and I can get that they look nice on a shelf. But if we compare that to say Warhammer miniatures then it’s a different ballgame. Warhammer miniatures need to be assembled and then painted which is a time-consuming process especially for a beginner like me. Some people like assembling and painting miniatures others like the tabletop they’re used for so one group can cater to the other. Some people like doing both.
I mentioned my PS3 and abandonware titles but I’m not collecting them just because I want to own them. I back up the data from the discs onto my PC for preservation/emulation purposes.
So yeah, the goal is important to me.
I collect PS3/abandonware games and even I look at the shoe-collectors wondering what the goal is.
You do realise that the birth rates will slow down during the conflict, right? Who’s going to be having a baby when the nearest hospital is being shelled? Assuming of course that both parents even survive.
That 50,000 per year won’t hold for this duration and I won’t be surprised if it shrinks to below 1,000 by the time Israel is finished.
What the Conservatives hope to do is call anyone who opposes this a paedophile.
