The entire web is built on standardized e2e encryption schemes fought for by techie nerds so that we don't have these problems there.

I mean, the loss of the headphone jack was a downgrade for no reason beyond profits. Big screens were a tradeoff made on purpose because customers demanded it.

6 in phones are in no danger of disappearing though.

I hate small phones. I switched back to an iphone SE years ago and realized it was a pita to use anymore. Everything is.. too small.

This version naming is hrllaripusly awful. "It works on rotund tundra, but not alpine fresh. Hope that helps!"

Windows tends to work with ever you throw at it though. Plug it in and somehow it will find a way to work.

I will never really understand why china's on these lists. I know it's because theyre communist and commies = bad, but every other country on their has literally vowed to kill Americans, while china's biggest crime is making close to as much money as we do.

Definitely no shady VPNs run by white westerners though. Theyve all got impeccable morals through ans through. Glad you cleared that up.

What? People experience 100 f regularly. It's literally their body temperature.

Firefox shipped sandboxing on Android years ago (before chrome) and then removed it. I'm not sure you gain much from it on Android. It eats up ram making performance crap on cheap phones and apps already run in their own app user context to isolate what they can access.

I will never understand how people expect software to gather no telemetry or metrics whatsoever.

I'm in Thailand and knockoff Disney stuff (and Legos) are pretty normal. And it's nice. The kids buying them have to deal with seeing their ads plastered all over town, so it's nice there are versions they can buy. I just wish they were so shitty quality and the big companies markup wasn't so fucking insane. Lego sets pretty regularly hit $200-$300 here. There literally is no Nintendo Thailand, so game prices are pretty random based on import fees that retailers can negotiate (or sneak through).

The nice thing is no one gives a shit about piracy. No risks really.
