People want the newest shiniest thing. Cars are no longer tools, but status symbols. And people absolutely will not give up status.

My bad. Didn’t know they switched to React.
I guess it’s less work maintaining two different mobile platforms.

What? They never had a native app, it was Electron.

I just shut everything down.
I can’t think of a scenario where I need a PC/laptop in less than 10-20 seconds.
Phone? Sure, if I want to take a quick photo or something, but a PC? Where’s the hurry?

What? Abrams uses a multifuel engine, it runs on a multitude of fuels.
US is not the only country operating Abrams, they’re used in multiple countries around the world.

Maybe millionares. But billionares? It’s no longer about smarts, but taking advantage and building your wealth on the backs of others.
Musk is not smart, he’s shrewd.

We’re going back to the best looking space vehicle, lads: the Space Shuttle orbiter.

Oh man, I wish that we could have that here. One app from one of the bigger banks here, straight up refuses to run if you didn’t download it from the Play Store (like Aurora).

The only downside to this is that banking apps won’t work anymore. Some of them won’t work without GMS, or with a custom ROM, or if Knox is triggered (Smasnug), or even if the bootloader is unlocked.
Unfortunately, more and more banks are deprecating their web apps in favor of mobile apps, 'cause who doesn’t have a smartphone?.
Otherwise, I’d switch back to LOS in a heartbeat.

That goes against the whole anti-tracking idea of these frontends.
If you want to be tracked (and across multiple platforms no less), just keep using Google’s crap.

RealDebrid with Stremio or Kodi.
You can mix the fruit juice with water, that way you have flavored water without a ton of sugar.
While they do offer other nutrients (not a lot, mind you, as we’re throwing away most of them), fruit juices have almost as much sugar as sodas. We were never meant to consume fruit like this - we’re literally extracting the worst part of them.

IRS commin’ in tellin’ me “Ain’t you boys goin’ gimme some back taxes?”
I told them they’d be lucky if they got some front taxes.
By that logic, urine is 96% water.
Yeah, you get water in juices, but also a metric fuckton of sugar (fructose). You know what doesn’t have sugar in it and quenches the thirst? Water.
NCD containment breach! This is not a drill!
