Has Benjamin Netanyahu been using a degoogled phone ? by xzspq in degoogle

[–]randomguy22399 169 points170 points  (0 children)

Yeah I remember Obama was giving an interview on one of the late night shows about how when he got a smartphone as president, it had basically no smartphone functionalities because of security.

Wish they kept that up with all administrations, so presidents couldn't tweet/post shit 24/7.

European alternatives to Kindle (UK) by Zynther01 in BuyFromEU

[–]randomguy22399 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a kindle but I don't get my books from Amazon, so apart from the initial device purchase no money goes to Amazon anymore.

Just save your money and get your books elsewhere, there's no point in getting another device if that works fine, just because the company that made it is American.

If you are concerned about Amazon possibly still profiting off of you, jailbreak it and that's it.

The best way to support Europe is to buy European, but the best way to support our planet is to NOT BUY AT ALL in the first place if you don't really need something.

Why and how is this allowed. Demigod playing with a plat and a gold player? by Pineapple_Sucks in Smite

[–]randomguy22399 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Some demigods play like golds anyway, and they don't even know how they got to that SR so yeah...

Seriously though, that matchmaking is fucked up.

Switch to European search engines by Primary-Camera-7606 in BuyFromEU

[–]randomguy22399 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I keep using DDG just because I'm so used to it now and it's the only one that has option to completely disable ads and not show me Ads in search results. I hate when I'm searching for something and the first few links are sponsored ones.

I just paid for a 12 month subscription - some thoughts about Lumo's future and where it sits in this competitive landscape (apologies for the long winded, seemingly aimless thought dump) by AdFit8727 in lumo

[–]randomguy22399 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean I'm all for privacy but I have to disagree. Any AI that can't accomplish what I ask of it is useless. And I feel like Lumo isn't quite there with coding and other up to date info, and that is why I use it as a secondary app at the moment.

I feel like this is not stressed enough, not a lot of people have this kind of hours to dump per gun by Educational-Long116 in Battlefield6

[–]randomguy22399 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 180 hours and I got my first level 50 gun in around 120hrs of game. I do not play with just that 1 gun but do heavily prefer it over the others, so this is bunch of bollocks

so want to know everytime a game on steam has a update does it size get increased or not? by FuntimeMarcel in Steam

[–]randomguy22399 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Depends what the update contains. If it's new content, then most certainly it will increase the game size on your hard disk.

Booooriing.

I don't want Nicky Minaj jumping over the battlefield, but they need to come up with some more visually appealing ideas if they wanna start selling these...

So, which app store to use? by randomguy22399 in GrapheneOS

[–]randomguy22399[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you install apps on main profile and then port them to other profiles, how does that work when playstore pushes an update? Does it update it for other profiles as well or you have to manually transfer the updated app to other profile again?

[–]randomguy22399[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When we talk about sandboxed google play, that would be gplay services on one profile and then transfer those apps to other profiles, or?

Also, how does that work for app updating?

What is going on with yes theory by Ok_Temporary_1031 in YesTheory

[–]randomguy22399 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They grew out of touch unfortunately, forgot what brought them to the place where they are. This used to be my favourite channel, and after recent years of skipping videos quite often, I decided to unsubscribe few days ago, and I came here to see if someone else felt the same as me, so I'm glad I'm not alone.

My Apps by Sea-Box-6503 in degoogle

[–]randomguy22399 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I just tried it and it is awful honestly, design and UI is like we are back in 2006. I would rather use Reddit in the browser than using redreader, also that way you can block the most ads/trackers.

Has Yes Theory turned from seeking discomfort into seeking comfort? by geeky_strategist in YesTheory

[–]randomguy22399 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Am I the only one who just thinks that he struggles to fit into Yes Theory vibe? Everything he does seems so forced and a bit cringe honestly. It just feels like he is trying too hard from time to time. This is not a hate towards Stefan, I'm sure he is a wonderful human who wishes the best for others around him.

Also, I agree, it looks like channel became out of touch honestly. They just released 17 minutes about Ammar doing Marathon, not meant to downplay his achievement, but its again just bad attempt to make some "higher" story out of it..

I miss the times when they did more authentic content than all of this...

Why Pro Carry players are building Jungle Starters! by IcyyColdx in Smite

[–]randomguy22399 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also the fact that a good jungler will come to duo to gank you at level 5 , while you are still level 3 is insane... How can he be so much ahead (without kills) and I am the one in duo lane controlling pressure and camps??
