The problem isn't the updates. The problem is microsoft downloading things and restarting my pc without my consent (annoying me until I say "fine, do it" is not consent). No one but me decides when my machine installs updates and reboots. I know I'm putting myself at risk if I let my system fall behind on updates. That's on me, it's my computer, it is my right to make that decision.

so I totally forgot that I commented on this, and was coming in to make a comment about how aesthetic is so much more important than graphical fidelity, then saw that I had already made a quippy comment.

oops.

imagine using your brain and looking at reality as it is actually playing out. Based on your previous comment, I thought that included you.

I also frequently lie to myself.

not only based, but also gay.

because gay is good, therefore the original point is good.

edit: lemmy does not respect formatting 100%. I wanted larger gaps between sections.

It's better if you look at games that are not 3d.

i've got an old version of FCEUX that I boot up all the time to run The Guardian Legend. One day, I'll do a full run in one sitting. Then, maybe I'll speedrun. I can dream.

I think I may have just done a bad job of explaining my first point:

I'm saying that manufacturers are putting these features on phones that people weren't going to buy anyway on purpose, in order to support the narrative that nobody wants those features.

There's counter examples of course, but for the most part I think what I said is applicable.

no one bought it because it was shit. companies do this all the time so they can make more expensive things more cheaply, and force people into buying the most expensive.

I want an easily removable battery. As in, I want to be able to have two batteries, one in my phone and another in a charger and I just swap them once a day. I used to be able to do that, and it was normal. Now, the only phones that have that are either extremely garbage or also feature a barcode scanner and cost as much as a "flagship" device.

both are true. This is not mutually exclusive.
