Oh, well, that “local only” feature didn’t last too long. After all, why waste perfectly good harvestable data?

Can’t wait to see this game top the charts so all the anti-woke chuds will say “well it wasn’t woke to begin with, that’s why it sells well!”

This was supposed to happen in “a few weeks” from September 10th, btw. Meanwhile QPR2 is almost there and we just get QPR1. Can’t wait to see QPR2 source code by the summer of 2026!

How ironic. Recently, Google stepped up their game of “let’s kill open source Android”, and when THEY need something done, unpaid open source laborers are supposed to throw away everything and jump on the issue. What’s wrong, Google? The source code for Android 16 QPR1 was supposed to come out “in a few weeks”. They said that on September 10th. Maybe FFmpeg should fix these issues reported by Google “in a few weeks” too?

I’m not a big fan of recommending neither Fedora nor openSUSE for first-time Linux users. Both of these require you to use terminal to add third-party repository (which is also a topic of discussion in itself) and swap your ffmpeg/mesa/video player to a 3rd-party repo one. That gives users a pretty bad first time experience.

This will not go well. Their track record with snap has been terrible from the security standpoint. How many times was malware found in the snap store? Not to mention subpar sandboxing that results in file access issues and missing features due to the nature of sandbox. I feel like Ubuntu has enough problems as is, especially with their non-LTS releases.

Amazing how bad it has gotten just in 2025 alone. We had:

-play integrity api

-changing the monthly security patches into embargoed proprietary blobs

-not releasing device trees for 10 series

-holding back the source code of QPR releases

-the upcoming app installation lockdowns

I guess Pinephone with a 20k mAh powerbank taped to the phone starts looking pretty good…
