Not that I remember and I saw it in the cinema. Soundtrack was decent though.

Just missing Outlook(1) and Outlook(OLD DONT USE)

Apple popularised two things that bug the shit out of me in addition to everything you said. “on iPhone” “on iPad” just sounds utterly wrong. It needs to be “on the iPhone” “on the iPad”. Now everyone is doing it.

The other is " breathlessly were excited to announce/we’re excited to share with you/we’re excited!!!big fucking cheesy grin". The whole point of having that whole “excited” or whichever adjective you want at that point of the sentence is to prep you and let you know what you’re supposed to feel. If it’s that good surely you shouldn’t have to tell me what I need to feel.

One day it will be Black and White. One day.

Oh balls.

"How quaint "

Spear still isn’t great. I’ve taken to using thr disposable AT rockets. That or thr auto cannon. Both work well they just take bit more aiming than the rail gun. Like you said though the rail gun still works as before as long as thr safety is off and you overcharge. With the safety on its 2-3 shots.

Naive/naïve?

I searched for “nahive” just in case it was a word I hadn’t heard of but it doesn’t seem to be.

Look at Dundee for your answers.

You and your random hatred of GDPR are hilarious. To quote you, pop an adder all, you need it.

“Mosh-t thing-sh in here don’t react too well to bullit-sh”

Unfortunately not. I’m trusting others who know better but if you want trusted as best as it can be you’re stuck with the play store sadly.

It’s still there. You said nothing about a specific repository. That’s not “missinfo”. How about you calm your rhetoric.

Weird as I get signal from f-droid.

That’s the one!

I love how my description of basically “it’s a website in searches” was enough for someone to figure it out 😄

There’s a medical website that appears in top searches (forget the name) that does it too but yeah, mostly seems to be news websites but not the big ones. In most cases Unlock Origin or the like can hide the panel they throw up to choose if you really need the info or archive or 12ft ladder can get you the info.

That’s not strictly true at least of Flamanville and by extension HPC. They were refining the design as they were building Flamanville and kept having to rework whole sections which put a delay on HPC. Now granted there was funding issues and government flip flopping involved but the regulatory process is pretty clear in the UK around these kinds of things.

I don’t subscribe as a rule these days.Subscription fatigue is a real thing but I do make one time payments to regularly used services or apps across the year. I guess it’s like tipping in that respect, I do it when I feel I should.

For Sync, the subscription seemed steep for an app for a platform I’m still only starting to use and don’t use anywhere near Reddit levels (by design I might add) plus the one time payment seems similarly steep. I bought the pro for Reddit about 2 years before Reddit went full ham and was ready to spend the £8 of Google credit I have on it again if it turned out I used it/lemmy more than I do.

The issue I found is that feeding that back on anything like this hit the cult wall and you just get a lot of angry posting about you being cheap or just use the ads etc. Hell, you can see the same posts even in this thread which is only tangentially related to that whole quagmire. I had hoped that lemmy would be less vitriolic and more discussion based even on these kinds of things but I guess people are just tribalistic regardless.

That was my bigger issue along with the GDPR compliance. The dev has said that clicking do not consent turns off consent but we’ve all see sites and apps where “legitimate interest” is skipped when you remove consent. That and the data that’s collected seems a bit opaque. Now, I know these types of advertising platforms are often drop in solutions so it’s possible the Dev just doesn’t know that side. That being said they should be aware of these things when on a heavily FOSS skewed platform like this. The Dev seems responsive so I imagine this will all be smoothed out in future.
