Exactly the type of super human that would engage in N900 necromancy.

This is one of the dumbest distractions I’ve ever witnessed. I suppose the purposely forcing an acknowledged shitty font that was pushed out for a reason is on brand for such a shitty administration.

I’m in the US anyway, so it isn’t an immediate concern, but it pretty much is a deal breaker for me so I guess that is that. Nothing USB is going to do it for me, though I wouldn’t be surprised if USB DAC/Amps have some compatibility issues.

I didn’t see it mentioned in the article, but does it have a headphone jack?

A broom? /s, but not really

Well, at least HBO content might become accessible through a decent UI and keep the same name for more than six months.

I’m glad to hear that the BYOD trend didn’t take off in every country. Many of the companies would act like they were doing you a favor so you didn’t have the “hassle” of carrying two phones around. Oh that is a hassle, but this was just them shoveling their costs onto the worker.

Every work phone, BYOD or not, has had the corporate profile stuff installed which already let them see most of everything. I just assumed this was more of the same. Shame on me for not reading the article.

Yeah, I had no choice on needing a phone for bring on call, but being only able to receive calls or SMS really cut down on the nonsense heh.

You would be mistaken if you think that every work phone is paid for by the employer. A lot of companies have a BYOD policy and still require loading their restrictive bullshit onto it. I have worked at two places like this and I refused to let them do it, but most went along with it. The funniest part if that they still wanted me on the on call rotation, but wouldn’t pay for a decent device so they dug out an ancient Nextel phone for me to use. I have no idea how it still worked.

Well, at least there is some good news today.

You can get a Nokia flip phone on Amazon for under $100. Before all the tariff BS it was more like $60. My daughter has been using one exclusively for about six months.

The $15 plan used to only be 2GB, which was honestly still enough for people that only use mobile data sparingly.

The grappling hook was a common mod in the original QuakeWorld scene and was included in the official Quake II CTF game mod. I’m surprised it didn’t become a mainstay in games afterwards, it was so fun to use. Shogo: Mobile Armor Division had it built in and was one of the most fun FPS games I had ever played until cheaters took over.

I don’t think the final release was “shit” per se, but I was super confused when I played it and expected cool features from the beta. The beta was also very beta and not all of the features were actually good, but I feel like they ran out of time/money/patience and just cut down a ton of stuff to ship it.

A classic. I loved how in the last phase you could make the right combination of nonsensical choices and end up with human and do really well. Not as well as my hyper-evolved Rhino-montser, but really well.

Yeah, it’s a real mystery you narcissistic fuckhead.
