Streamer group Black Girl Gamers, meanwhile, saw the leaks as an opportunity to highlight the opportunity disparities for marginalized content creators on the platform.

It’s a “please upgrade your rapidly aging shit already so we’re not constantly having to hamstring our progress and limit ourselves catering to the increasingly decrepit hardware yall can’t seem to let go of” tactic.

I canceled my D+ sub like a month after I got it back around when it first launched.

Speaking from experience in the betas, you’re about to hit a wall in terms of substance pretty soon here. The game quickly becomes a material collectathon and grindfest because there’s frankly not much else to do right now but a boring, paper thin story with repetitive quests you eventually may find yourself sick of…

I keep considering switching over to an iPhone but I really just can’t. Because they outright refuse to address the handful of little quality of life features I find the most useful on a daily basis from Android.

It’s pretty amusing that the company stance here is that this is all perfectly well and good and empowering and whatever else yet yall couldn’t use the uncensored pic for the article.

Cellebrite? The same shitty software Best Buy used to use (in a slightly pared down version) to transfer your phone data between devices? Yeah, no one familiar with it is surprised it isn’t exactly well secured.
