Escape from Tarkov, but with the single player mod and further addon mods for AI, ballistics, QoL features etc. With enough mods Tarkov can be the most realistic FPS shooter around with an excellent body armor system and ballistics that actually makes sense imo.

How is that not a valid metric for choosing a phone? The way I see it, it’s not really any different to choosing a phone for its camera performance or battery life.

There are good mobile games too, and emulation. I have a decent laptop to play games on and I still prefer my phone for gacha titles everyday over Android emulation on PC.

While I have seen a few instances like this on Reddit, they were always at least 6 month old posts, and none that’s from the recent ad crisis. So yeah, not much to conclude here imo.

That’s just their marketing team at work, I find that hard to believe tbh.

My 5 something years old Fenix 5s still works great with like, a week and a half battery still lol. So yes, it’s just that brands like Garmin don’t advertise as much as Apple’s.

Same, Garmin has made me swear off from owning any modern smartwatches. I mean having to charge every other day is just nuts lmao

Stop it, don’t give Google ideas or they will turn to Android next lol

Knowing Google I wouldn’t be surprised at all if they do remove Play Books and fuck over all the customers, just for that 1% increase in profits lol.

This 100%

The WF-1000XM4 is fine long as you don’t update the firmware to 2.0.0.

Got mine as a refurbished unit couple months ago, came with 2.0.0 by default and it ended up almost nuking the battery after two months lol. I ended up having to get the battery replaced, plus downgrading to 1.3.3 and it’s been smooth sailing ever since thankfully.

I wouldn’t recommend the C700N if ANC is important, since it’s ANC is quite weak and passable at best compared to the LinkBuds S or WF-1000XM4.

Fairphones have always used Qualcomm SOCs, there’s nothing new here. I don’t understand the fuss here if I’m being honest.

Maybe it’s just me but I’m surprised that Apple isn’t taking more of a stance regarding EU’s new regulation on smartphone batteries, especially considering how greenwashing-loving and anti-repair Apple is.

Yeah that still depends on the instance in which posts came from, imo here on c/Android it’s already a lot less US centric than r/Android was.

Just a r/cars thing. Mostly because of how Nissan relies on subprime lending to sell cars in the US and Reddit likes to makes fun out of it.

It’s mostly just a cars subreddit thing. In big subs like r/cars Nissan cars are a popular target to hate on, because of their tryst with unreliable CVT transmissions in the past plus Nissan’s dependence of subprime lending in the US.

*Why American Teen Hate Android Phones

Also I’m very glad that Lemmy is a lot less US defaultism than Reddit is. It’s pretty tiring having to constantlt hear about Democrats and Republicans, or bubbles, or Nissan cars bad, you get the point.

Maybe it’s just me but I have mostly converted to TWS now, their convieneces are unmatched compared to traditional IEMs. Plus, noise cancelling is an absolute must-have for outdoor usage. Which is quite the irony considering how I own multiple LG V-series phones lol.

At home I alternate between the Sony WF-C500 and WF-1000XM4, plus Moondrop Quarks for gaming.

For outdoors usage, WF-1000XM4 and Beoplay EQ. But mostly the XM4 since the Beoplay EQ’s app sucks balls and it’s pretty bad at blocking wind noises. If anything, I believe that the EQ actually amplifies wind noises in NC mode compared to the XM4 and C500.
