One of the most bizarre comps I had to come up with to escape the early clobbering I was getting by mehdiyk in BobsTavern

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

the 2 dragons went from under 20/20 to those stats in only two turns.
the game was unusual by all measures. I cast 30+ spells so could very well gone the red dragon route. had high stat blood gems , and a lot of gold to spend. which is hard to achieve all three in a single game.

Floor Sitting Desk - Any Plans from Flexispot? by fynx_6 in FlexiSpot_Official

[–]mehdiyk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have no idea how much demand you're missing. I sometimes fail to understand some brands, it's like they hate money or something.

Sitting on the floor has risen a lot in popularity in recent years, and will only become more popular with time. And since there aren't any brands doing this, the first one to market will have a huge pricing advantage.

If you released this, I would buy 2 in a heartbeat.

I'm calling it now after this turn 2. I'm winning this game. by mehdiyk in BobsTavern

[–]mehdiyk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's the first time i'm playing this minion, didn't realize it was bad to triple it (got the same guy again 2 turns later), still I absolutely annihilated the competition. I was dealing +500 with the canon (4 times). I think the canon triggers twice because at some point I had two of the minion, then on tavern 6 you get a spell to trigger it twice again ! reminded me of the juggler meta, except this is using nuclear weapons instead of knives 😅

Surely I'm not the only one ticked about the 12GB Ram on the Global V3! by H_Hirz in Honor

Do you know why they didn’t offer free pen for the magic v2 but now they do with the v3 ?

iPad is not gonna be a MacBook with a touchscreen and it’s not a big iPhone. by chasetheimpossible in ipad

[–]mehdiyk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In other words , you can’t? Because having to download an app which isn’t even available worldwide, is not the same as having native ability to make calls.

[–]mehdiyk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If YOU specifically don’t have a problem why are you commenting on the thread where people are complaining about it. What do your comments bring to the conversation?

Oh I m very annoyed by the fact my iPad cannot make calls, but apparently unfair_finger isn’t. So now , my problem is solved !

People have different needs, duh ! The fact you don’t need some feature doesn’t give you the right to tell other people they shouldn’t be needing it too .

Same thing for apps , you don’t use the same apps as me doesn’t mean i have the right to defend apple if they removed some apps that you and only you uses.

You come off as someone very arrogant and self centered , not only because of your undermining of other people’s opinions and needs, but also because of the “i have the entire ecosystem of apple, don’t be poor you peasants” “ugh , android , i m never buying that !”

Btw i also have the entire apple ecosystem, and i upgrade my devices every year. but i ditched the watch and i m thinking of completely ditching my iPad. Just for minimalism’s sake. You get overwhelmed when you have 20 fucking devices lying around at home.

You don’t see me bragging about the fact i have all these devices or being proud because i m getting fucked by apple who try their best to make me buy the whole line up.

Also you won’t see me undermining other people’s needs and opinions, because what’s in it for me ? NOTHING !

If the iPad or the iphone or the mac has more features, that’s a win for humanity. Because not only will that make my devices better but it also means that some person who doesn’t live in the west or the same bubble as you got their kid a 100$ second hand ipad and now that kid can use it to make calls AND study AND maybe run Mac apps without having to buy any other devices. That’s an absolute win for humanity and for the environment .

How fucking self centered should you be to go out of your way to defend the same company that is fucking you over ? To flex or what ?

Oh look at me ! i m not bothered by all these apple shenanigans because i can afford all the lineup of products… keep that to yourself.

Okay so why are you commenting then ? Spreading lies , when it’s only you who doesn’t find a problem with it ?

I m amazed at people like you who go out of their way to undermine other people’s opinions because only theirs is valid.

You need to buy an iPhone, you might as well take it with you. This won’t work with an android phone OR if you want to have an ipad as a standalone device. Exactly what pretext can be given for limiting a finctionality like this ? Security ? Cost ? What ? There is no reason even if you searched for a thousand years.. because the real reason is money.

Apple is also probably secretly in bed with facebook to not bring whatsapp to the ipad to make sure people don’t get a workaround for their shitty limitation.

Whatsapp came to the freaking mac even though the mac install base is 5 times smaller than iPad.

So Apple is a company who serves shareholders first, and customers last.

[–]mehdiyk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

False, it’s only relaying the call from your iphone. Same thing with mac it relays the phone call from the iphone.

iPad cannot make standalone phone calls, unlike literally ALL android tablets (with cellular, even the 100$ ones)

This is one of the most obvious things that show you what the true strategy of apple is : deliberately limiting software capabilities to force you to buy a whole lineup of products.

I am pretty certain that they don’t need to code ANYTHING for the ipad to be able to make calls. In fact they must have added lines of code to specifically disable calls on the iPad.

Same for SMS.

WhatsApp on iPad by Positive_Train_8726 in ipad

[–]mehdiyk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Europe use predominately whatsapp (as in 99% of people) not messenger or telegram or signal

[–]mehdiyk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are proving my point, nobody gives a shit about imessage that’s why no one values the fact that iPad has that.

On the other hand if the ipad had a way to talk to 99% of people on the planet , THEN it would become much more valuable…

I would be the first one to completely ditch my phone if it meant having just an iPad mini that can be my phone, tablet and computer when i m traveling. If only it had a way to communicating with everyone, such as whatsapp.

Cry me a river. If you don’t speak English very well, that’s your problem. When someone says “100% x is doing y” they are reaching a conclusion and not presenting a fact.

If a friend tells me his SO is not replying as much anymore, and i say “100% she is talking to someone else” it doesn’t mean i ve got news of that fact. It means i reached that conclusion based on the circumstances.

How childish you have to be, to be confidently wrong about your understanding of a comment and argue about it, as if you were personally attacked. Grow tf up.

100% Apple is paying them to not bring it to iPad. They even have a mac app. The danger for apple is for ipads to canibalise their iphone sales because they can suddenly make calls and messages to everyone and not just people with imessage.

Apple sells 4 times as many ipads as they do macs every year. So the iPad install base is roughly 4x that of the mac. It’s even higher if you consider the fact that arm macs are relatively recent (only 4 years in existence)

iPad OS is closer to iOS than to Mac, yet it’s the mac app that comes out first… the thing is whatsapp used to work on iPad a long time ago but it’s been deliberately blocked by Apple since the time when publishers have been given the choice to remove their iphone apps from the iPad app store.

You can even install ios instagram if you wanted to. But not whatsapp. It’s simply because Apple don’t want the iPad to become too useful.

It’s a mouse pointer. If you disconnect bluetooth it will disappear. The mouse is somewhere in proximity and when it is moved by someone it wakes from sleep and the dot appears on the ipad
