than type in a number, if that’s what you’re referring to.
It is, and also don't most generic remotes still have keypads? 🤨
That's the part that probably gets me the most here. You used to, and with certain services still, have to directly enter in a channel number to go to that channel...So the basic setup is all there, but...Pretty much exclusively used for channel navigation because ???
Is the last one an absolute requirement? If not, although I imagine you're already aware of it, have you considered the Moto G Stylus? It manages the first three details nicely, but I don't think any of the models have a capacitive fingerprint scanner (may be mistaken, wasn't a feature I was interested in when looking into these).
That's typically how I approach things, but this is asked in the context of having done stuff under a personal account that could help advance you professionally, but you don't want to share your personal handle as it's, well, personal.
Your argument rests on a fallacy- “vote with your wallet”. This presumes that we don’t vote with our voice anymore, so it supersedes a democratic system of governance.
Meaning this genuinely, not in a snarky way: did you read to the end of my comment? My phrasing may have been poor or a tad wordy, but I recognize what you're describing and advise collective, political action instead of voting with one's wallet.
The parenthetical at the end wasn't to suggest otherwise, only that doing so via one's existing/current government may not be a readily available option, demanding one change their government so as to make it work to those ends. I should have been clearer on that point.
Has there been any indication of these features in chat apps being popular enough to warrant this?
I've not really seen much one way or another in the case of Snapchat doing this, for example. In fact, last I read about that, there were rumblings of investigating it as a potential privacy breach of minors...In the UK, I think it was.
In principle I'm inclined to agree, however isn't this glossing over the degree to which markets are consolidated?
You try to opt out of products/services and choose more ethical alternatives, but it turns out the most readily available alternatives are in some way connected to the same unethical parent company. Ultimately the individualistic approach to addressing these matters is untenable and requires collective action in some form (ideally it would be leveraging a government that reflects the interests of the people).
Instead it uses Tor network [...]
Are you sure? Do they use that alongside the weird blockchain backend they had going, or switch over at some point? I remember looking into Session awhile ago but I wrote it off because of the blockchain/cryptocurrency shenanigans involved in the architecture.
As I recall part of the idea was that the cryptocurrency would serve as a sort of incentive for people to run nodes for the Session network to operate.
Where's a Garak? the new hit game of finding characters like Garak in other media!
Yeah, you got what I was trying to ask about! Also interesting that you take the games angle, as they have a sort of extra "problem" imo apart from narrative trope stuff, which is related to the gameplay. Similar situation as with stories just with gameplay one may have experienced a million times already.
If the story's compelling enough, it can help pull a game through, or vice versa, where the gameplay helps you gloss over an average story, but ideally they're both doing enough that you have a great experience all around. Personally I've hit a snag with games lately where it's the gameplay stuff more than the stories that haven't been managing to keep my interest.
To clarify a little, it's not so much experiencing for plot twists as it's a matter of becoming overfamiliar with some story structure/beats in genres so that they may lose some of their appeal or interest. It's kind of like the journey ceases to be a journey after awhile and is a little more like a regular commute, so even if you were more after the journey than the destination, you're gradually in a weird spot where you're out of luck.
Does that somehow...Not happen for folks who continue to enjoy genre fiction? That's more of what I'm wondering.
Thanks for the insight!
Use good shoes [...]
This is such a tricky part of it all, given different gaits/fits/feet though, isn't it? That's been my experience anyway.
I probably should have adjusted the examples as like metalbulletins.org to better describe what I was trying to ask.
It's not strictly the explicit software as part of the address that I've found odd, so much as the blending of the software in the names, but I think generally it comes down to the same basic point being made in the different comments concerning domain registration and management.
