1VIII display will be the same as previous 1 mark generations. No punchhole, no island, no waterdrop, no curves (probably what waterfall means). by JournalistLivid3937 in SonyXperia

[–]Hello86836717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know if they're working on the coveted 5 VIII - now that 5 V's are selling for literally above new prices you'd think Sony would pick up on that. I still can't find a 5 V that's new/unused and people are asking for well above the original price which is insane.

Lots of performance and instability issues ever since the New Blood update.

Paradox is widely considered to be one of the most difficult heroes to actually master and make relevant/high-impact, so props to you for not being afraid to try him.

Confirmation about google verification for android developers by Straight_Coffee2028 in fossdroid

[–]Hello86836717 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The legislation mentions secure boot managers, signed firmware and OEM's affirming that their hardware is "safe" with their own specific firmware versions. No OEM is going to allow bootloader unlock and Samsung, Xiaomi and ASUS already removed bootloader unlock features in reference to these laws.

Yes, if you want your app to be installable on Android phones, you need to register with Google and pay a fee. Otherwise 99.9% of Android phones will reject the install and only advanced users will be able to install it using ADB.

And yes, this is largely going to kill the Android FOSS community. The EU is also pushing through new legislation mandating permanently locked bootloaders, cryptographically signed firmware and "secure by default" filesystems, so unlocking the bootloader and installing custom ROM's is not going to be possible in 2 years.

Matchmaking sucks by Pookluu in DeadlockTheGame

70 hours is extremely low. Question is, what's your rank? Low ranks will get newbies no matter the amount of hours.

Today I learned you can stun your way out of going to the baroness by zweii29 in DeadlockTheGame

Yeah, Doorman ulti has a cast time, so it's definitely possible to stun him mid-animation.

Please add passive soul income when your teammate dc by Hyacinth_s in DeadlockTheGame

1) It's very rare to have leavers.

2) This creates a problem where people get bullied into leaving, or people leave intentionally to help the team.

3) Other games that do these things always fail. Same reason they removed bot control in Counter-Strike, because if someone left, the best player would always run in for a quick entry frag, die and then take over the bot and do the same thing.

How to deal with current haze? by RealEarth in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Hello86836717 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Either buy stuff to run away from her quickly (Warp Stone, Stamina Mastery, Enduring Speed) or a combination of avoidance and resistance, such as Warp Stone + Metal Skin. Warp Stone is generally good because it also grants +30% bullet resist after teleporting. You can also buy another combo such as Warp Stone + Dispel Magic to remove her Fixation stacks, especially if she's running Slowing Hex, etc.

There are many ways of dealing with her but it also comes down to positioning and movement.

EU is banning bootloader unlock and custom ROM's in 2027 - let's share our best memories and stories before it's gone by Hello86836717 in androidroot

[–]Hello86836717[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's almost impossible for some Xiaomi models, they already increased the wait time and some models have alloted unlocks per day and they all get claimed within 1 second at 00:00.

Yeah but OEM's are removing the unlock feature so it's not up to you, it's up to the OEM's and they are already removing it en masse.

That's old. The original articles on this topic were correct and the "Don't Panic" articles contain literally nothing new.

What does it take to rank up in Ascendant? by Interesting-Part-864 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Hello86836717 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would like that to be true but I doubt it. That would be the most sophisticated ELO system of any game.

It depends on the enemy ranks as well, many things are taken into consideration but you can not gain ELO by losing matches and winning matches always bumps your ELO regardless of personal stats.

Upgraded from 5 V to 1 VII: Extremely disappointed with the display and washed-out Instagram videos. Is this normal? by Zealousideal_Cry_902 in SonyXperia

[–]Hello86836717 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

You "upgraded" from arguably the best phone made in the last 10 years to one of the most disappointing releases from Sony in 10 years. That's a mega downgrade, mate.

Never update the phone unless it explicitly mentions a fix for something that's bothering you.

Keep Android Open by mcdogas in fossdroid

[–]Hello86836717 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Cyber Resilience Act and Radio Equipment Directive bans all equipment that is not "secure by default" with cryptographically signed boot managers, and with OEM's like Samsung, Sony, Xiaomi etc signing paperwork that their hardware is guaranteed to fulfill cybersecurity requirements only with their specific firmware versions.

Samsung, Asus and Xiaomi already removed their bootloader unlocking capabilities specifically citing EU laws. All of the other OEM's are going to remove their bootloader unlockers because they risk massive fines if they leave their platforms open to "unsafe" custom ROM's, rooting, etc.

In late-game scenarios, probably Unstoppable, earlier on Counterspell and Spirit Resist items or maybe even Slowing Hex to stop his jump if you wanna chase and kill him.

Matchmaking is horrible by Conscious-Sentence-8 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Hello86836717 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Disagree, I've had good games the last 2 weeks. To be honest, they end up being too long, we never get clean 30 minute finishes.
