Their eCommerce platforms are not changing from a technology perspective. They are raising their prices. There is no technology related news here.

It’s a pain to get other app stores to get uptake on Android since Google refuses to let other app stores be distributed via Google Play. So if Steam starts to distribute games for Android, the Steam app would be thrown out from Google Play.

It’s the same reason why the F-droids user base is so small and will never reach the main public. As soon as your app store needs to be installed via a third party web site, you have lost.

I hate articles that are just a tease for a YouTube video.

Since they specified “falsely” does that mean that there is legitimate witchcraft going on?

They disappeared for a reason. It was a crappy gimmick.

The situation may be worse than I’ve been exposed to, due to the phone brands we have in our house.

I still think it’s better for the environment to not ship a charger with every phone, even if you cannot assume that everything is USB PD nowadays.

You are absolutely right, the prices have gone up. Still better for the environment to not ship a redundant charger with each phone.

Aren’t everyone apart from OnePlus basing their fast charging on USB PD nowadays? At least Apple, Samsung and Google phones can fast charge with USB PD. There is usually no need for a proprietary charger anymore.

Not getting a charger is a good thing. I’d rather not pay for the additional charger since my house is full of high quality chargers already. I don’t need another one.

And my axe!

I switched at about the same time. I miss being in my twenties. 😋

My employer is forcing us to migrate from Debian to Ubuntu because they want access to paid support. Holy crap, I hate snap so much.

Thanks for the tip. I have never heard of this game before. It’s so refreshing with a game that isn’t optimized to squeeze every last drop from my wallet. I’ll gladly pay up front for a good game

Is there a difference in alcohol level? Alcohol evaporates easier than water.

It seems to me that they like it. Am I missing something?

Sorry for chuckling at your disappointment.

I try to follow Bash strict mode. It can protect you from some foot shooting.

I hate that my government (Sweden) is a driving force behind this.

That actually looks a bit top heavy.
