51·10 months agoLineage runs just fine on it. If you have a international version. Im saying this from my starlte SMG-960f running lineage os running android 13 running on the October security update… Which I know has been updated since I just haven’t taken the time to update yet.

Self descriptive your retort. Learn to read
I dont give a flying fuck about popluar usage since litereally can mean literally not literally.

Taking something I didn’t write to extrapolate on the words.
"Defined, point blank range is the range at which you don’t need to aim high or low to hit your aiming point. Maximum Point Blank Range (MPBR) is simply the farthest end of that distance.
Point-blank range will vary by a weapon’s external ballistic characteristics and target chosen. A weapon with a flatter trajectory will permit a longer maximum point-blank range for a given target size, while a larger target will allow a longer point-blank range for a given weapon. In popular usage, point-blank range has come to mean extremely close range with a firearm, yet not close enough to be a contact shot.
For instance, “point blank range” for a handgun may be up to 25 yards if the gun has been sighted in to hit the target at that range when aimed. For a hunting rifle, that distance may be 100 yards or 200 yards, depending on which distance the rifle’s sights are adjusted.
Bullets typically fly in an arc from the muzzle and descend to their target due to air resistance and gravity. The chart below shows the trajectory of a .30–30 cartridge where the rifle is “zeroed” to hit at 200 yards. Note the point of impact is higher at 100 yards and falls off rapidly after 200 yards. If you wanted to hit a target at 300 yards, you’d have to aim about 17.4″ high with the gun sighted in for 200 yards.
The “rise” at 100 yards isn’t huge, so if you’re just trying to hit an 8″ diameter target at 100 yards you could do so without aiming high or low (point blank). But if your target is small, about 2–3″ across, your “point blank” range narrows to a zone that is at 200 yards ±10–15 yards.
In terms of popular usage, however, it means you’re shooting a weapon at a distance were you almost “can’t miss” but the distance is greater than a contact shot.
For a large gun, like the Rheinmetall Rh-120 (US M256), a 120mm smoothbore anti-tank gun with an effective range of up to 8000 meters, point blank may be on the order of 1000–1100 meters if bore-sighted to a large target like a building."
So… You could be with in 2 feet or 200 feet depending on sighting already calibrated… You could be 10 feet from a air rifle… You could be 100 With a handgun and 500 with a rifle. And have it still be “qualified” as point blank. Its a sensationalist use of the phrase. Try using different ones. That mean what your trying to convey. Like murdered from close enough to have touched.
Who’s defending what now. I just want people to use the correct wording. Stop using words you think you know. Keep it simpler. I’m so tired of reading trigger words just because they help the Luddites.
Do something to remember and they won’t likely forget.
Not to be nit picky but point blank is “within lethal range”. If it can kill you it is within point blank range. You could be half a mile away and still be within point blank range.
Don’t want to fuck around and say we didn’t give them everything we had. Fire the missiles but the fire the sub too for good measure.
Terraria only works on non x64 devices. Sad noises…
The more you know the more you realize what you don’t know. If you don’t know jack shit to start. And learn horse shit your still don’t know jack shit. And the realization never hits.
