  • I don’t need trollish, outlandish, inflammatory language to make a point, nor will it gain any favorability to any argument I hear. I get that it upsets you, but it also doesn’t affect you in any way. Literally the only people who encounter any side of this issue are Apple users, and anyone can just use a secondary chat app to avoid it. I literally have 6 chat apps installed on my phone, and I only use iMessage for less than ten people. Does that annoy me? Not really. I just keep all chat apps in a folder called “social” and treat that folder as if it’s its own cross-platform message app.

    Nobody is being “forced” to do anything. People have options.Who did what first doesn’t even matter. It’s merely interesting at best, but is beside the point and doesn’t lend any precedence to anything being discussed here.

    Here’s the thing, if I had “friends” forcing me out of conversations just because I couldn’t so much as use iMessage with them, I’d question my own standing in that friendship and its actual value to me.

    1. Ask if there’s an app they preferred to use for non-Apple users, and see if you’re willing to join them there.
    2. Just tell them which app you use and how to reach you there. If they really need to reach you, they can just contact you that way.
    3. Let them keep using iMessage. Poor resolution images and green bubbles will be their problem to deal with, not yours.
  • I’d be more inclined to believe you if you weren’t throwing ad hominems around in what seems to be an amateurish effort to save face for some reason…

  • Your analogy, not mine.

  • Like someone’s private property that they can kind of do what they want with? Makes sense.

  • I know absolutely jack about Linux, but as someone with a steam deck, eGPU support would be pretty spiffy. Not sure how possible that actually is though.

  • Okay, time give the phone back to your mommy.

  • Bro.How about giving people the option to pay less for smaller portions? Is that not allowed for some reason? I’m a small guy, and every restaurant I visit in the west pretty much charges me double and gives me twice as much food as I could possibly handle. It sucks when traveling, because I can’t exactly just take it home.

  • Portal’s not so bad if you’re happy with just your PlayStation library and simply want something for your bedside stand.

    I currently use a retroid pocket 3+ for almost only that purpose, and let me tell you, an 8 inch, 1080p screen + a full dualsense in my hands at night for just $200 seems like a really nice upgrade even if it means leaving my emulators on a different device.

    (Too bad for Sony I’ll personally be spending a lot more to have a Steam Deck OLED though) (teehee)

  • I don't know deep diving, I just want a standalone VR gaming headset that isn't owned by an invasive social-media corporation. Until I have something like that in my home, VR simply doesn't exist yet for me.

  • What if it looked like a Star Trek communicator?

  • Hey, I still believe VR is gonna happen... someday... :'(
