It is in fact, a US vs Europe thing. Stateside “SMS” is ubiquitous. I put quotes because it’s not really SMS anymore. It’s either RCS between Android users or iMessage between iPhone users. The only time SMS actually gets used is between Androids and iPhones, because as other commenters in this thread mention. Apple refuses to implement RCS on their devices in a way that is compatible with non-Apple devices.
Usually this is where I would say something like “I aim to please!” but the context kinda ruins that 🫤
To put it gently there’s a bend because there’s a… bend. Like, you can’t put a straight rod through a curved tunnel.
Not something I should have known, but if you want to continue using phone features on Windows Windows+H opens up the speech2text feature.
Would be real interesting to see it run at GDQ, you know, to really make the whole speedrunning thing come full circle.
Honestly a Reddit Historia would be sick. Especially if we could put together a visual timeline to mark the major events.
I think part of the issue is probably that when making a platform jump, keeping the same name and branding is important to make sure members can find their way back. I don’t know how federation handles the closing / renaming of magazines, but once everyone’s established it could certainly be something to vote on.
If you downloaded Slide off of the google playstore, the premium version was paid as a way to help support the dev. If you downloaded it off of F-Droid, or directly from Github, the premium features were free.
It’s a part of the history. The original PCMR started back when the mods of the original /r/gaming banned posts about PCs, saying “There’s nothing inherently gaming about PC. You could just be using it as a tax machine for all we know”. This understandably created friction between the 2 cliques of gaming, with the console clique calling the PC clique a “master race” as a form of insult. At some point, everyone got fed up with arguing about it. /r/pcmasterrace was made, and leaned fully into the “master race” out of spite, and was spurred on by PC hardware at the time being way more cost effective than consoles. Over the years things mellowed out and it became less and less about console peasants “individuals who at the time insisted that console was superior, not individuals who later could only afford console after PC hardware went up in price. Important difference” and more about becoming one of the master race “owning your first gaming centric rig”.
If you wanted the tried and true down to earth gaming forum equivalent for PC, you’re looking for the PCGaming magazine. PCMR will always be an enthusiast forum, that was based separating themselves from the console ecosystem.
It is, or at least should be. The original source is here.
Where is all of this coming from??? Guys, Slide is FOSS, it’s under the GNUv3 license lmao
Slide was THE FOSS Reddit app WDYM
Yeah “Costs more than you think” no I think it costs about what I expected for a lossless player. DACs are a feature these days.
