Oh I didn’t mean that your phone was a Samsung. Was just referencing the fact that people’s brand recognition was forever altered by an issue that objectively was not a major issue in the grand scheme. Companies don’t want to risk that type of thing again.

Mine’s been working great for nearly 2 years now. 👍

Most Galaxy Note 7 devices were not affected by the manufacturing flaw. Most manufacturers don’t want to take that risk without larger sample sizes and edge case testing.

It just needs to be the way Android works from that point forward, not something optional. If they want to have an Android phone, with the play store, and everything that comes with the ecosystem, that’s what they have to do. Manufacturers never want to change what they do.

Android needs to modularize itself more and separate the core OS from manufacturer changes, carrier changes, etc.

Most of the money ‘lost’ to piracy is money that never existed. With fragmented streaming services one picks what they are paying for and needs to find a way to watch the rest.

This was the very first thing that came to my mind. How much of this “lost” revenue from piracy is actually revenue they lost because the content isn’t available legally where it is being consumed?

At this point you might as well just assume the CEO of any large company is a piece of shit until proven otherwise.

Nah, it’s pretty simple actually. If the archive doesn’t exist at all, they can’t even steal from it.

Sometimes those are the chains directly… More often they’re just ghost kitchens. Someone else owns the brand, and has an already established kitchen make the food for delivery apps, and they take a cut from the sale.

Many ghost kitchens aren’t even normal restaurants you would drive to, they’re just commercial kitchens in generic business space that make food for a dozen or so ghost kitchen brands.

I’ve been extremely satisfied both with the 9070XT that replaced my old RTX 3080, and the Arc A310 in my media server. Both have worked flawlessly, and with Optiscaler, native DLSS/FSR/XeSS support doesn’t really matter anymore, you can just use whatever regardless of your hardware, and add FG if you want to anything.

Lemmiwinks!
