Adding government ID to their data would hardly be anymore of a privacy invasion

Are you listening to yourself?

This is not even close to the worst thing they have ever done, but stuff like this is a waste of resources. People mostly want official vertical tabs and more than anything engine performance improvements. (and the ability to pretend to be Chrome in Youtube)

I think it's embarrassing how low that number is. If there are alien civilizations out there, I think humans would be at the bottom of the barrel intelligence wise.

As a consumer I will not buy newly made Unity games anymore. Whatever they might do now does not matter, because with the new TOS they can walk back on this at any time. Asking fees for installs on games that were made with a recent enough version of Unity that will prompt the developers to remove them from the stores.

If they wanted to regain trust, they would rectify the TOS that allows for garbage like this, but I don't see that happening..

I use an Asus Gladius 2 wireless mouse. On Windows upon plugging it in for the first time WU installed most of Armory Crate and called it a "driver" and of course it immediately wanted to connect to the Internet.. So yes, I'm skeptical.

No Man's Sky. (boring Sandbox exploration without a soul and very unfun crafting)

This is terrible news, because Scientology holds an absurd amount of power for a trashy cult/scam organization, it's not impossible that they could effectively attack this, given there is enough will within the curch.

The problem is manufactures are doing everything to sabotage users running custom roms on their devices. Frankly everything you highlight exists already, though there are very difficult problems on the image processing front. Personally I would much rather use a full Linux distribution on a phone, than AOSP without the play store.

Also micro G is not a solution. Having a desktop browser to access drive, docs and photos could be, especially if there were some unique rendering options for those things. (microG is bad, because Google can break it at their leisure)

I'm pretty sure turning LTT into an enterprise was a bad idea.

There was never a need to share the profits with so many people in the hopes to become more than just a millionaire. Greed's doing work, I suppose.

"on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter"

I'm sick and tired of reading this sentence..

LTT produced some rather entertaining videos over the years, but for a long time it's been just that without any substance. I'll be okay without their videos showing up in my YT recommendations.

"If a company offers a lot of different products or one product that can do everything, usually none of those are really good. "

I wish this applied to Google xD (Their search & web browser used to be good. Their cloud/photo storage and email services are still amazing.)

I'm telling you, he has Covid fog.
