You can probably disable it with a custom install, like Cortana

Even if it did, it would extrude your brain out like a can of pillsbury biscuits

MMORPGs may not be the butt of South Park jokes anymore, but that doesn’t mean that they’re dead. They’re more diversified… Like others mentioned, other games are quietly stealing the thunder. Also, if you think about it, battle royale games are kinda MMOs with how many people are in the lobby, and games like Roblox and Minecraft can have players interact with large numbers of others

Legit question: for the average person, why would this matter? Like congrats copper, you can see my text messages to my mom, and my receipts in my email, and my pictures of my pets. If someone’s actually doing crime, then a password should be the least of their security measures.

I’m in the same boat as you and it drives me up a wall. I’ve found a solution and love getting 2-day battery life out of my 5 year old phone.

I swear by Greenify and use it religiously. It programmatically force-closes all of your apps that you don’t use, so that they don’t send broadcasts to each other like the other comments mentioned. There are only system apps running on my phone at all times, unless I specifically open other ones.

With “sensors off” toggled on, no GPS or auto-rotate, the only thing that triggers apps to open is changing networks or receiving a notification.

Sooo I was kinda in your shoes a few months ago, and decided I really needed to do something about it before I lost my goddam mind. What I’m doing (and it’s kinda working) is to find a community that interests you, and persistently be involved in it. I personally found a streamer on Twitch and a few Discord communities, and hang out with those people by generally just being there and having small interactions with others. We watch the same things and play the same games in voice chat. It really helps to have some sort of common activity that you can comment on and springboard your experiences or stories. You don’t have to be that guy that’s obnoxious and in everyone’s face, just pay attention to the people in these groups and be super friendly. I’ve found a few acquaintances and am working on knowing them better to become friends. You’ll remember names and interesting things about them, or be like me and take notes so you don’t forget lmao. Eventually, they’ll say “Hi <name!> It’s nice to see you again. How was your day?” and then you know you’re on the right track.

Socializing is hard, especially when you’re not used to it and in this online era. If you’re friendly and attentive, people will reflect that energy back to you, and you will form bonds. Good luck!

I’ve heard the term used reffering the fetish about 3000x more than I’ve heard it used referring to a disability

Graphics chips melting is my main gripe

Legitimately, where did you see that Android isn’t profitable?

Their heart is in the right place, but good luck doing anything about it

I’ve had decent luck with Dells. They’re not spectacular but not garbage either.

HP on the other hand…

$14/mo 🙃

I disagree on the value part. It’s more expensive than most other streaming aervices. If it was less than $10/mo I would sign up in a heartbeat

Yeah, which is why you shouldn’t have posted to social media and gone straight to a lawyer.

Taper off, and self-care. Make sure you sleep regularly and sleep well, take lots of water, try to get some exercise even if it’s walking. I’ve been through it and it sucks, but you can do it!

You SHOULD expect legal advice, and your SHOULD seek it from a lawyer. Doing anything else can lead to serious consequences.

Just keep searching for TF2 community servers, not all of them will be that toxic. Some really don’t care about anything, as long as you don’t mic spam or grief. There are some furry ones that will definitely be LGBT friendly, if you don’t mind that.

Good choice, GW2 is a fantastic game. It’s not perfect, but the general community is pretty good and there is A LOT of content for your money

Jokes on them, I’m out of date anyway

And why should the average user care? They use Alexa and have the Facebook app installed anyway, this is just a drop in the bucket for all the other crap that tracks every movement anyway
