Man that’s always so annoying.

AROOOOOO

Don’t let your dreams be dreams.

Taco Bell’s caramel apple empanada and the double decker.

I think this sorta misses the point, at least from my perspective. Nobody cares what phone another person has until they try to send that person a picture or a video that looks like it was sent from 2004.

I know that this is only really a problem in the United States, but that doesn’t make it any less annoying for those who have to deal with it. I have no interest trying to convince my 74 year old mother and a dozen other friends/family members to install a different messaging app on their iPhone so we can send each other videos that aren’t compressed to shit.

Most people with an iPhone just want to use the default messenger cause, frankly, iMessage works and it works really well. You know when that default Messages app doesn’t work well? When you’re forced to use an antiquated technology like SMS/MMS. Apple knows this and banks on it to sell more products. It’s one of many anti-competitive practices they employ.

RCS isn’t a perfect solution, but this is a huge step forward in closing a gap that should’ve been closed a decade ago. Nobody cares what phone another person is using. They do care about having a premium experience with a device they paid $1,000+ dollars for. They’re also ignorant enough to blame a green bubble or the believed cause of that green bubble, which is any device other than an iPhone.

In my experience, that’s only temporary. The screen will always wake up again on United flights.

How did you make out with cancelling? Despite what people are saying here, I didn’t have a problem doing it from a browser and I don’t own any Apple devices.

Oh shit, does this work for Android too?

I wonder if being within those circles, you’ve been exposed to certain ugliness on a more intimate level; with people who feel comfortable enough in their in-group to express their more radical thoughts. Anecdotally, I’ve known a few vegans but have never been lectured nor had views pushed on me.

Hell, the only time I ever hear about the radical, pushy vegan is when people complain about them. On the flip side, I’ve been exposed to meat eaters who seem to get offended when someone mentions the concept of veganism, as if someone else not eating animal products is somehow a trigger for them.

Again, all anecdotes here, I’m just figuring one’s exposure to the vocal minorities on either side of the conversation is where you run into the problems.

Releasing a perfect game that doesn’t have any bugs isn’t what the article is about.

It’s talking about teams that have honed their craft over many years of developing titles they cared about working on and investing in continuous improvements, of which both Arrowhead and Larian have done.

Preach, brother/sister.

It’s amazing for traveling with. I’ve found that streaming devices like a Chromecast or Roku are hit or miss at most hotels/motels, but the Steam Deck in desktop mode with a USB hub and HDMI cable works basically anywhere.

I also keep some movies and shows downloaded just in case the Wi-Fi particularly sucks wherever I am.

In response to most of the people in this thread:

Idk, y’all. The biggest assholes never die. They stay alive out of sheer spite.

Oh wow, they have a version that doesn’t look like it was made for XP? Sucks that it’s buggy.

What do you mean by installation quirk? Having a GPU and needing a driver?

That seems pretty common to me. I also know people interested in PC gaming who are also low skill and I certainly wouldn’t recommend Linux to them (only exception being the Steam Deck).

I hate all acronyms that aren’t defined.

You see it constantly in gaming communities. Ah, yes, the game “AC.” You know the one.

Assassin’s Creed? Animal Crossing? Armored Core? Ace Combat?
