So you’re angry that a Google service doesn’t have longevity on an Apple product?

Your argument makes no sense. Who even cares if these ancient paperweights work? That’s not “planned obsolescence”, that’s just hardware and software getting old.

Well there was no such thing as the “iPhone 3”. There was the iPhone 3G or the iPhone 3GS, but no “iPhone 3”.

And this doesn’t prove anything lol an iPhone 3G can still connect to a 3G network and make calls and browse the internet.

“Planned obsolescence”? Like where the iPhone 7 and on have received 6 to 7 years of software updates?

I looked for this integrity check file and ran the power shell script and I don’t see it listed anywhere on my system’s roaming folder nor in the list of applications with cpu usage.

Has anyone seen anything on the DODI release or is it clean?

We’ve known about the X everything app for months now. Elon hasn’t been hiding the fact that he wants to compete with all major forms of social media. Twitter’s acquisition was only the first step. Soon it will be YouTube and Twitch competition, then Instagram, etc.

Sir, we’re talking about boats.

I disagree, but I also don’t have a problem with people or companies being wealthy enough to make or own them, either.

Electric boats seem like a great idea, especially with all the pollution the really large cruise ships put out. I’m happy to finally see this become mainstream. On the water there’s nothing to really get in the way of solar panels, either, so it makes sense to have them for charging.

That I did know. I played through a few of them and each of them were as bad (in a good way) as the others. I think evoking that type of emotional response was the idea of the series, book and game, however. They’re not meant to give you good feelings, but cause conflicting emotions.

Stellar series, like I said before. Absolutely enjoyed it.

I’m pretty sure that the game has a slightly different ending to the book, as well. I didn’t know he did both. Very few things have made me feel as uncomfortable and unsettled as the book/game.
