Samsung phones at that time also had IR blasters

The fact that you can use Python before .NET kinda amazes me

I think this causes infinitly more issues than just installing it. But I agree, all these “apps” could and should be regular webapps.

also they walk really funny (the european ones)

been like this with the Apple A chips for years

This is what I envisioned with “foldables”.

yeah great, EDL mode still is exists…

I hope it sells it well. Maybe its just me but I don’t see a big overlap between Platformer Fans and PS5 owners.

I think there are two core issues. Their creation engine has struggled to keep pace since the PS4 era and Todd’s ego.

The engine part can be fixed by either licensing something else or investing big time to bring that fossil up to speed.

With Todd’s ego, I hope Starfield thought him a lesson or they make someone else top dog.

Safari is just way better integrated in the System and its not like Firefox on iOS is the real firefox. Its webkit with a Firefox skin.

I don’t care for Linus these days but respect for that.

They still make Tablets? I have one from like 2016 that isn’t even horrible.

Enemy MQ-25 Dragonfire above!

do whatever you want

Imagine if both epic and the devs made an agreement to make all games 10% cheaper and share the costs.

UE5, surprise surprise.

I mean its great that it is repairable, but not so much if pretty much everything else is a compromise for the MSRP.

Imagine playing a game at release

Google can steer Chromium all they want, if others refuse to update at all and make up a big enough userbase no website can use these features rendering them useless and giving Google no power. You just gave a perfect example with Shadow DOM and Manifest V3.

Lets say Google in Chromium 140 they add Manifest V3 and in Chromium 141 Shadow DOM V2. If lots of non Google Chromium browsers with lets say a combined 30% market share refuse to update to Chromium 140 because of what a terrible antifeature manifest V3 is and thus never implement Shadow DOM how many websites are ever going to use Shadow DOM V2? Probably almost non. And thus the feature is already doa making your experience not a percent worse if you use a older chromium base. Basically I don’t see why the resistance to Google can’t come from within the Chromium browser space - given enough market share.

Google was only able to pull this shit on YouTube because on iOS 99% of people are accessing YouTube through the YT App anyway and on the Desktop the loss of annihilating the 5% of Firefox users was worth it.

With their combined single digit market share? I don’t think it would have changed much.

And sure they control Chromium but their control only has power if websites use these features on a large scale. And if the Softforks had a large enough market share and removed antifeature xyz websites can’t really on it without annihilating large chunks of their userbase, thus it won’t get used and the feature is meaningless and might as well not exist.

For example in Internet Explorer you could use Visual Basic Script instead of JS for client side scripts. But no other browser ever supported it, it never got adopted by any website and so it became nothing more than a footnote and nobody ever noticed that feature not being in other browsers.
