Its fascinating to see that a chinese state controlled app has the power to potentially destabilize small economies. Also fuck influencers, they are a plague on this world.

Wow, it actually looks ok. Fuck, ubi, you better not screw this up!
Not sure why you feel the need to defend your actions by drawing analogies with real piracy - it's their attitude towards you as a content consumer that you should note in this situation, and that's just appaling. Your actions may well be piracy but frankly that's just a word they use to guilt you out of choosing convenience and safety. Be a pirate and be proud, goddammit!
Yes, god forbid they see opinions from outside their respective bubbles.
Serious question: in what way did maps.me get shitty? I've been using it for years as a gps replacement and other than being closed source and having a paid tier found no issue with it ( or at least no extra issues compared to other OSM apps )
Yeah, android authority posts a lot of Google-favorable "articles". Almost as if they were getting paid to.
A shame motorola is cutting back features on their low end phones as well. They used to be the only decent manufacturer that offered fm radio. That's now down to a handful of phones. The jack is gone as well. Expandable storage is also growing ever rarer. Meanwhile their cameras are still shit, their manufacturing quality is down, they don't even bother with ip ratings. So what's their selling point? Why would you buy a budget moto nowadays instead of dozens of other, better priced and better equipped alternatives? The gestures?
Yes, but the nexuses did not have the courage and the vision to remove jacks and sd cards, all while getting more expensive. Fuck I miss me a proper nexus.
There's admittedly some potential in there, like teaching them to analyse statistics and 'teaching critical thinking' whatever that implies.
Conspiracy theory belief however is emotional rather than rational. You cannot 'teach' people to not do it. I worry that they will condition kids to dismiss any news that deviates from official propaganda by just labelling them as conspiracies. And frankly with the UK being the police state that it is, that might just be the end goal.
Starfield was the same. Looked pretty meh, but almost all (initial) reviewers gave it high marks. It wasn't until people started playing that the truthful reviews surfaced. Guessing either paid reviews, or reviewers having a skewed view of what makes a game great.
