Just so you know, this isn't Reddit. You've just been blocked by everyone reading along here.

If you start to feel like no one replies here, it's actually you, in this case. It could help to try again with a new account.

Sure some people might say hi back but that doesn't mean they're a friend.

True. But I've had some great friendships grow after years of just "hi" in passing. We weren't friends yet, but we were destined to become friends.

I'm with you.

Thankfully, corporate bullahit isn't the only way to create a discovery algorithm.

I expect that we will have a diverse set of discovery algorithms available to opt into here, in a few years.

Any politician launching their own media network is a reprehensible piece of shit.

Prove me wrong.

Counterpoint?Obviously I don't have any examples here.

I'm sorry if I got anyone's hope's up

I hope this was a brief, fun, moment of mystery for a few of us.

I always wonder about the people who drop off just before finishing the game.

That's me. It used to be common for games to have a sharp ramp up in challenge at the end boss, and I often don't have the time to get through that.

So I habitatually abandon games when I feel close to the end, and I watch the ending on a stream, instead of playing it.

I realize that minimal research could tell me which games are which, but even less research finds me a decent stream of the game ending.

Nothing anotger fireball won't solve...

the low rollers having been filtered out by dart traps, lucky kobolds, etc.

True. That's mage survivor bias, right there.

A manufacturer phone pre-installed with LineageOS would be awesome.

I'm partial to RetroPi or Batocera, so I end up with a retro game console and media player in one. This build works with anything compatible with Kodi. Excellent for home media, but paid and free streaming services are hit and miss.

There's also builds of Android Open Source Protect for Raspberry Pi, which have much better support for streaming apps, since anything that works on an Android Phone works, as long as the streaming service developer hasn't done anything stupid.

Edit: A warning though - Android on Raspberry Pi is still very new. Think Alpha/Beta test. I think that Android on ARM chips, in general, is new. It'll get good, but your mileage may vary, for now.
