“No one outside of maybe some catty preteens is throwing shade about the phone you use.”

There are literally a bunch of people in this thread specifically reporting bullying and similar behaviour over iPhones - not just from kids, from adults. Tell me again that they’re not a status symbol. You’re literally the only person saying otherwise, and let me guess - you’ve got an iPhone? I’m not trying to be…

It’s not irrelevant. I was told:

Valve said 2 years or so was more likely, fairly recently. The trouble is that the more powerful chips that have come out since don’t actually necessarily at the very low energy levels the Steam Deck uses - indeed some are worse. Valve seem to think this will change in future.

I can believe that, especially with kids. It’s pretty awful though and absolutely shows it is a socio-economic indicator/status symbol, no matter how people might deny that. It’s weird because in the UK, even with only slightly more Androids (they’re the majority, with like 58%, whereas in the US iPhone is with 51%),…

Fuck ‘em and fuck their pathetic class-war branding, this sort of handwringing just confirms the EU is 100% correct to do this.

I mean, no-one believes you when you say “I’m not trying to be a jerk”, when you’re being a total wanker over 16 days. Your shitty “no editors lolz” thing really is 100% purified essence du jerk. So if you’re not trying to a jerk, you are just wildly naturally talented at it. It’s amazing.

I said it was a socio-economic indicator/status symbol, and it is. That’s what you’re describing.

Absolutely insane stuff. I guess it’s because in the US it’s such a socio-economic indicator/status symbol.

Yeah it was definitely a cut above a lot of popular anime, possibly including a couple on this list, depending on your perspective, but I can definitely understand not including it.

Yeah that’s my main issue here. I’m definitely excited for a new ME game, but like, 2027 seems really optimistic, given:

“That is most certainly not the game we’re going to get, but it would be bold and ambitious, and would go a long way towards making the original ending(s) more than just a color-coded choice, as they originally were originally boiled down to.”

You are genuinely unable to comprehend what you’re reading. It’s pretty fucked-up dude.

Is the second half of your post a satire of absolutely awful pedantry? Or are you really just that awful a pedant? Yes, technically Dec 15th 2022 isn’t 2023 but come the fuck on, it’s a close enough.

I feel like it’s rather weaker than the earlier Demon Slayer arcs. Not bad, but not as sharp or entertaining.

Vinland Saga S2 at #1 is 100% spot on.

“Nobody has an agenda about a movie.”

It really isn’t. It’s full of fundamental errors in understanding, some of which show he hasn’t even actually read the article in front of him, let alone understood it, and the fact that you apparently don’t realize that is rather sad and depressing.

That’s a lovely bunch of Yank special pleading whinging, frankly.
