If you swipe down on the notifs twice, you can edit them to be similar to the previous style.
On topic of your post, fuuuuck everything about their forcing AI, but my biggest gripe is how they moved the audio display (from, like, Spotify or audiobook readers/podcast apps) to the bottom of the lock screen as a tiny bar on the bottom instead of showing me all the info as it did before. It’s super annoying when I swipe to unlock and pause what I’m listening to.
Well, it worked tho! Lol
Oh, and I agree. I understand that. It’s also the first film to piss me off, in my formative years.
Still fkn hate it! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Agreed. Still hate it.
I’m not your buddy, pal! (╯°□°）╯
(ﾉﾟ0ﾟ)ﾉ Oh no! A ghost!
I said what I said! ಠ_ಠ
I respect it, appreciate it even. But my God, I hate that film.
Oh valid, my bad. I saw it in passing when I googled him and put two and two together to make eight lol
Hmm, I did some quick googles. Wiki didn’t have much on his finances, just his work. But from few sites, it seems he definitely was blacklisted but made a return throughout the 70s and 80s but nothing big took off and he still ended up broke doing commercials because he lived too loud with his money. So it seems it started with being blacklisted but he also was spending too much money? I dunno. I’d have to read more, but sounds about right from what I remember of a film appreciation course I took a decade ago that started with fkn citizen cane.
At least you had the common courtesy not to comment with the panic (๑•﹏•)
Thank you thank you! I panic commented because it was driving me nuts. Then realized I could Google old man wine commercial and got the answer.
But I appreciate you! Thank you!
That guy is someone famous and lost all his money so he did ads, right? I cannot remember his name and it’s driving me insane. I think he like… Directed films? If I recall correctly, he was a bit of an ass.
I cannot remember his name. 😭
Edit: I googled old man wine commercial.
It’s Orson Welles. The author of War of the Worlds and I think Citizen Cane. Itch scratched!
Side note, citizen cane is awful. I don’t care that it’s said to be top cinema. I hate that boring waste of 3hrs.
16 if I’m cold, 17 if I’m warm, 20 if I just got out the shower right before bed. If I shower and stay up reading or such, back to 16/17. Tits out for harambe, 100%.
Oh, interesting. Thanks for the heads up!
Would the Google pixel not retain some line to Google? I’ve been leaning more and more towards getting away from Google and Microsoft. With Linux, I’m scared I’ll have an unsecure system just by virtue of not knowing dick about Linux except the little coding I’ve taken courses on that barely scratched it.
Only reason I got Samsung was the cameras on the S22 or 24 or whatever it is I have. Pixel has good cameras, I’ve heard, but it’s entirely Google. Does putting Ubuntu remove all that…?
Sorry if not the place to ask.
Escape from Tarkov has a PVE mode now, so you dont gotta deal with the sweaties of PVP. Any of the tactical looter shooters have a slow vibe. Tarkov was intense and difficult for a long time, but my bestie was my Sherpa, so to speak, and we go into maps together and I can handle myself now. It has a hideout building aspect, so your loot goes towards something. There’s quests from the trade vendors, that all builds a lore to the game that has a lot of secrecy. I dunno a lot of it, but it’s fun to figure out. It also has weapon building, where all the weapons are able to be taken apart and sold for parts or pieced together with the parts you want. The ammo has stats on what can penetrate armor, and the armor has a plate system so you can buy or find better plates for it. There’s a durability aspect too, and weapons can jam and need to be evaluated and then clearing the malfunction. There’s bosses, too. And different factions to deal with. Many are ill equiped, and some are decked out in gear with big weapons. Your character can die with one shot if there’s no armor there. Or you can tank a bunch of shots if you’re kitted out. There’s even a flea market that’s player based. So the prices can make your character rich, if you play the market or sell stuff. Like, selling a chocolate bar can net you 100k, because they’re fast food during in-raid. Oh, and there’s a whole water + food system. So you have to find food and water to keep that going. You have to use the right meds for the right situation; splits for fractures, bandages for light bleeds, tournequits for heavy bleeds, pain killers, injector pens for status effects and medkits to heal, after you deal with all those situations. Some medkits even cover a lot of the various things, some inject pens cover various things too.
It’s pretty in-depth.
The game is based in Russia though. Your character is without a faction, despite picking one “USEC” OR “BEAR.” But that’s just how you got into the city; USEC was the corporations mercenary group, BEARs were the military. And it takes place after the fighting, your character sorta got out of the faction. Unless you do a scavenger (scav) run, everyone is unfriendly. Scavs all stick together except the boss and their goons might pop you.
It doesn’t seem to have anything to do with real politics, far as I’ve seen? But the lore deals with the corporate greed, military powers, and regular scavenger people all kinda vying for survival in a war torn city of Tarkov. It’s a weird lore, but interesting for a game and intense gunfights of fire, move, cover, fire, move, cover. Be wary of a clicking grenade and run.
Lol, could’ve been bad. I hate the new UI.
