She basically said it herself though.

Really expensive over here, so people only buy them for status basically. Having an iPhone signifies that you’re well off enough to not worry about price.

I had a friend who said exactly this. She was just buying it to show off basically. She didn’t even believe me when I said the back was glass for some reason lol. And when she got it, she had to get used to counter-intuitive behaviour like the power button cutting a WhatsApp call. She did this multiple times on a call with me, it was pretty funny!

Another friend kinda regrets buying it now because he feels locked in to the Apple ecosystem.

Personally, I don’t think I’ll ever switch because F-Droid is a huge part of my phone experience. When my Pixel runs out of support, I’ll probably just root it.

It’s a great phone. Solid hardware, good software. Just not for me.

This makes it sound like you ate his shit…

I don’t get it

Yeah killing millions of people was totally worth getting one man!

Now let’s bomb Washington DC to rubble and kill your family so we can get to Bush, the even bigger war criminal.

I’m from India and it’s about ₹120 ~ $1.4.

I think it’s a little uncharitable to Sync to characterise it like this. Yes, it collects personal data to show ads. However, you have the choice to refuse or pay a one time fee to get rid of it entirely. It’s the nonconsensual nature of data collection that robs users of their agency that makes it problematic.

Devs need to eat and donations are not always a realistic revenue scheme. With the one time fee, Sync has signalled it cares about its users and not just value extraction like Big Tech. I will probably pay that and be happy.

I like Liftoff, I also like Sync. I use both atm.

All piracy is ethical because Intellectual Property is a lie.

I will pirate from megacorps and indies, anyone who sets up a demand based distribution system for products.

The only products I will not pirate are those that have a needs based distribution system and are finite.

Just use Firefox? Available on desktop and Android.

It even has adblock extensions on Android!

That would be:

Dota 2

Warframe

Path of Exile

Skyrim

Mass Effect 3

Dragon Age: Origins

Apex Legends

Even as a crypto enthusiast, the web3 movement smelled like VC manure being dumped on a field hoping something grows.

I bought and flipped like 20 almost. Nice tidy profit!

Damage = ~$2200

Why turn down free money?

I’m finally part of the 1%!

Doesn’t say why they were arrested though.

They’re the same for me because my account is 2 years old when lemmy.ml was the only instance with the bare minimum activity!

Yup, I joined in 2021 too and it was a ghost town. Just seeing hundreds of comments on posts is a shock.

Have you checked that you’re browsing from your instance? Liftoff has different feeds for different instances and if you go to a post through an instance you don’t have an account on, you won’t be able to vote.

Just go to the homepage and select the feed from the drop-down at the top on an instance you have an account in. I used to face the same problem until I realised what’s going wrong.

Sometimes the only option in a lot of places. The pay and benefits are decent compared to private sector work, especially at the lower level.
