Which phone was it? Sony has products in the low, mid and high price range and the cheaper phones naturally are weaker than an iPhone. If you compare the flagship models of the two brands the Xperia is at least on the same level of power as the iPhone.

And as an anecdote: I had an iPhone a few years ago and hated it most of the time (and I say this while using a three year old phone that cost me 200€ at the time)

There are many phones with a headphone jack that have an IP68 rating which invalidates your whole point. If the headphone jack was so compromising then Apple would have needed to remove the charging port as well.

I recently got myself a Teufel Zola on a sale and am really satisfied with it. It has good audio (as far as I can tell), is comfortable and looks nice.

The ending is not -erie but -le which is a diminutive that gets used in certain southern german dialects.

If those people are marginalised why not make organisations that help them get into programming?

When you think about stereotypical programmers, you usually picture a white guy somewhere between 30 and 50 years of age (at least in Europe and I presume the USA). Coding used to be a profession that was predominantly made up of women but when it became clear that it would become an important job more and more men became interested in IT so that now there are about eight male programmers out of ten.

Black people have similar issues (and god forbid you are a black woman) in that they often are paid worse for the same jobs than white people and have worse chances to get good secondary education and academic jobs even if they have the same intelligence as white people. Helping people to get into computer sciences that statistically have way lower chances to do so without any fault of their own is a good thing in my opinion.

Equus is latin but the rest are greek from what I can tell

It wasn’t metadata it was an entirely optional recovery email address that he used for his apple account.

Our old town hall was originally built in the 15th century but it is kind of a ship of Theseus situation as the oldest parts were destroyed in WWII.

In the minds of most people it is, because for them it’s just factored in the cost of their Computer.

German coders usually have lower salaries for the same jobs than US American coders. Workers rights are generally better here though.

I only go on YouTube about once a month and I use it exclusively with either Newpipe or heavily modified on my PC. I mostly use it to watch trailers of games I am interested in, so I think that I would not be really affected.

You mean like WinRAR?

Hard to not be the best mars helicopter when you are the only one.

Send letters instead, those don’t land in the spam filter so easily.

FwB is a friend with benefits, usually of a sexual nature, and FFM means either Frankfurt am Main or a threesome with two female and one male participant.

Why would it be safe? Playing games requires active attention which is a thing you can’t spare while driving.

Probably doesn’t help that there are many people that write it as “puss” for some reason.

How is it whataboutism if the US bans importing goods made with slave labour if they themselves make use of it? That is just hypocriticism on the US’ side.

Then why does US law explicitly allow slave labour? Do they blacklist themselves as well?

With something like the heroic launcher you don’t even need to install the Epic games launcher. Just redeem the game through the website and play them through heroic.
