So this was before cell phones, and I’ll bet the landlines got knocked out by the quake, so yeah, in the immediate aftermath, you’d have no idea if your family was ok until you raced home to check on them. Makes perfect sense they wouldn’t stop to take the shit off first.

If you saw it moving, that means it wasn’t an Angel. They literally don’t exist when observed.

Only if you leave your mic unmuted.

This is a troubling advancement, they all are, but the methods of countering this specific one are plentiful.

Really, what’s needed is a more robust mute function with a good voice recognition system that automatically cuts off the mic when you’re not speaking. That, and people need to learn to use push to talk.

I’ve been saying it for years: were currently going through a soft reboot of the Post-Civil War/Reconstruction era. There are an incredible number of parallels.

This is also the dev that got really hurt over his paying customers not liking when he completely changed the app they paid for under their nose with no option to roll back, and quit pushing updates for a while after that. It was a whole thing.

I’m not paying a dev that can’t handle feedback and has an entire fanclub cheering on literally every single decision.

Btw in case anyone wants to smile, Newgrounds.com is still kicking. Same owner, same purpose, still no ads.

It’s kind of beautiful. I feel the need to protect it in this current internet hellscape. Like some rare specimen of near extinct species, this one must survive

The android community, especially on /r/android is/was intensely hostile towards Motorola for no good reason. It’s basically just a Pixel/Samsung circlejerk, anything less than a flagship from those line is spit on.

Motorola’s lines have been very solid midrange phones, shipping with near-stock android, unlockable bootloaders, and just all around respectable specs for their price. They were also shipping aux ports/SD card slots for way, way longer than the others until very recently.

And before someone says “update speed”, not everyone cares. Most just want something stable.
