2·1 month agoBut the post is about censorship and controlling the narrative. WhatsApp doesn’t do that. If we are talking about corpo apps that do any sort of communication, then the list should be much longer.
Why is WhatsApp on the list? Is it used as a social network?
For a second I thought that was Sundar Pichai.
But the sale numbers are probably much higher nowadays, so it would be feasible to sell games for cheaper. But why would they? People are gonna buy them anyway. Those who won’t will get them on a sale later.
I’ll be waiting for the Tinfoil discount.

5·3 months agoI’m not criticizing the screens, they are ok and I loved my Pebble Time Steel until the battery swelled and popped off the screen. I’m just saying that calling these e-paper is a deceptive marketing strategy.
From the Verge article:
The first watch that Migicovsky and Core plan to ship is called the Core 2 Duo (not to be confused with the old Intel processor), which Migicovsky says will cost $149 and will ship in July. […] It has the exact same black-and-white e-paper display as the old Pebble 2 (technically a transflective LCD, if you’re curious)
As I mentioned earlier, whether a screen type is considered e-paper is subjective. And in my opinion, reflective LCD isn’t a type of e-paper. You may disagree, but it’s not “categorically” wrong.
Quote is from Wikipedia. You can see it’s the case for both models here:
Besides, I own a Pebble Time watch and can tell you, it doesn’t perform like a typical e-paper. It has the bad viewing angles of LCD and screen goes blank when power is lost.
The watch featured a 32-millimetre (1.26 in) 144 × 168 pixel black and white memory LCD using an ultra low-power “transflective LCD”
The problem is that e-paper is a category of displays, and some companies label reflective LCDs as “e-paper”. Which is subjective (and I personally heavily disagree with that categorization, cause then LCD clocks and Gameboys have “e-paper” displays, too).
But in the comment I responded to it was said Pebble has “eink” display, which is categorically wrong, as that is a very specific proprietary technology, which is e-paper in traditional sense, like the ones in Kindles.
IIRC, it has a reflective LCD, not epaper display.
I tried. But got:
Yes, of course, strictly in Minecraft.
If we are being pedantic, Trills are a bad analogy for transsexuals. Every new Trill host is a brand new person with only the memories (with some extras) of the previous hosts. This distinction is emphasized in several episodes. So while Klingons are rather hyper-traditionalists, they can’t really complain about a person having another person’s memories.
