Play store is a shitshow. It's so hard to spot the few actual gems in the absolute avalanche of ad-ridden asset flip time wasters that have the only goal of harvesting your data or running a monero miner in the background. The chances are better with paid games, but even then it's hit-or-miss.
I gave up on mobile gaming long ago.

Yea, but people don't play the same game non-stop for 8 hours… actually, never mind.

Of course they do. It's what they live for. All their focus is on the afterlife. Their actual life is just an annoyance that comes first.

Accidentally flashed a live image (PCBSD, IIRC) onto my 1TB external HDD instead of the thumb drive. Lost years of collected music and movies that night. I learned two things:

1. Don't do this sort of thing in the middle of the night, when you're tired and should be sleeping.
2. dd is nicknamed 'disk destroyer' for good reason.

Not college, but places.

Now that sounds like a good use for taxpayers' money.

It's something to occupy your mind that doesn't require a lot of attention but still prevents it from wandering.

Yarr Harr?

You mean B?

Because ext supports proper access rights from actual operating systems.

But honestly, how do you talk to those people? They're so caught up in their us-versus-them mentality and think they have the monopoly on truth, that I don't see any way of convincing them that they're not only making a potentially fatal mistake but are a danger to those around them.

As has been stated, that has always been the case. Conversely "Studio bosses want to share in the rewards of a successful show, but do none of the acting," doesn't sound fair, does it?
