Same!!! Or niche fields of studies, although there's a lot less serious ones of that kind lol

I agree with your points, but what do you think are some of the specific things Google or other similar tech companies in such a similar capacity could realistically and meaningfully do object the Musk-Thiel-Trumpian destruction machine?

I would like to learn more

Though to be fair cringe is like right in the very blood to Google anyway so what would you expect...

I mean, just look at how they often respond on their bug tracker platform of most of their products and how they try to justify their endless streams of questionable design decisions, that seems to be characteristic of them at this point lol

Ooo I see! That's awesome!

Yeah unfortunately we don't have hundred-years data on them lmao but at least it would still be interesting to see how examples of such disk go as years and decades go by :p

So they are aware of how terrible ads are and they intentionally want to keep it this way, so that they can sell advertisers "better ads" for higher premium as a form of product and price diversification, with those "better" products they offer eventually end up being terrible and make the ads situation as a whole worse, so they can keep introducing new kinds of "better ads" product to have a "justified" way of asking even more money from advertisers?

What exactly happened to the DVDs in the basement? That's really interesting, indeed DVDs also claimed 100+ years of life span, but as you can see that's only the theoretical maximal in perfect conditions, which don't exist in real life, and the same thing happened to your DVDs can happen to Blu-Ray disks too

Unfortunately law enforcement is one of the many specific "exceptions" in the new EU bill, the bill is criticized for having many such loopholes for law enforcement and immigration control.

The new EU bill is definitely really important because having such a bill is wayyyy better than having no bill until much later, but I feel like this is going to backfire so much in the near future.

Not to mention Valve spearheaded major development for making Linux gaming like 200% better than it used to be, with development of Proton and everything, and giving all those work back to the entire gaming community as open source products entirely for free, bring in momentum for an entire industry.

That's a company you support.

Ooooo that's such a good idea!!!

LMAO I bet you can't name one single feature/product Google released where "transparency" of how it works is a thing, it's almost like anti-transparancy UX design is something they love on a philosophical level, even for features or products that have absolutely nothing to do with advertising lol

Yeahhhh that's like one of the biggest downsides of these phones, seriously if Sony price each of them $200 lower they'd be selling like hot cake since they are really all some of the last non-compromising phones if you're also into rooting and OS mods and such.

Alternatively consider to get one of the newer ones and use it as your daily driver for better value, they are all extremely well build and you can easily use them for 4-5 years :p

Especially the gen V model also recently got their first Release of LineageOS for this model! :D

Sony Xperia 1 series is amazing, fully open bootloader, takes less than a minute to root, no artificial restriction from rooting with AOSP-like ROM, and still have both SD card and headphone jack but still flagship specs of the respective release year of each recent model lol
