Cute but the preview shows a lot of google apps that have been rebranded. How out of date is this?

Nobody could have predicted this! :P

Netflix seems pretty good at it but their catalog just doesn't seem deep enough to prove it out.

YouTube is the worst for this. I know a lot of people fall asleep watching YouTube so it makes to think that some stuff that was "watched" wasn't really watched.

I don't fall asleep watching YouTube. Unless it's music, I'm not watching the same thing twice.

I know, it sucked last time I got a new phone... but I think it has that feature added now. I haven't tried it yet, but I've turned on the "automatic backups" feature.

I had one of those. Failed in the weirdest way: sound stopped working, even through Bluetooth. From googling, it sound like the bends the phone gets when sitting on it can damage the main board and the connection to the sound chip fails. Was shocked the phone could have a hardware failure of that type. I have learned zero lessons and still keep my phone in my back pocket.

Anyhow, it was a great phone but just a bit too narrow. The keyboard was uncomfortable. I don't need these stupid supertall 20:9 stretched screens, but I need enough width to type. I miss 16:9 phones, my old Moto Z was the comfiest-typing phone screen ever.

Counterstrike predates that as a gameplay mechanic.

I agree on most of it, but I have genuine conspiracy theories I can't let go of about the end of the "state media" flag. Applying the state media flag to BBC and CBC and NPR was an excellent way to kill it for his Saudi and Russian friends.

checks. Oh. I never even heard of them, but yes. They apparently need better marketing in Canada, because they don't come up in Google searches for buying mp3s in Canada.

Their site looks way nicer than 7digital.

They're not generally cartoonish evil, I'm sure they agree that some tenant protections against sudden eviction are a good thing, and allowing unlimited rent hikes completely obliterates all that.

If you want my attention with Star Wars, give me a sequel to the Squadrons games. Play with the formula, set it in the Mandalorian post-empire setting so you can l mix up the fleets instead of just Empire Vs Rebels.
