Still dislike Microsoft for cheaping out on the later generations Lumia. Cheaper displays so the 950 didnt support Glance. Wth?

I still miss my 920 tho. The Lumia 920 is only recently dethroned as my favorite (smart)phone of all time.

Microsoft messed up badly in Europe by completely and utterly ignoring the continent. Nokia managed to gain a larger marketshare than Apple in both Italy and France at the time. With meaningful marketshares in the rest of Europe.

Nokia was doing alright in several Asian countries Microsoft ignored as well.

After the take over, Microsoft kept all their resources forced on the US market, failed and in turn lost the European and Asian markets.

GG.

The Fairly Oddparents is kind of the last reminisce of golden age Cartoon Network.

What was Wenger thinking, sending Walcott on that early?

That’s because of the 22,3 year rule. Tragedies become funny to joke about without shockhumor after about 22,3 years. Like aids became socially funny ~20 years ago and 9/11 became socially acceptable to joke about just shortly after COVID.

It’s uncanning how accurate Matt and Trey’s documentary was. As usual.

In certain areas of Germany this map can be useful as a reminder.

I was watching Enter the Dragon a few days ago.

Amazing how a movie from 1973 has better audio quality than the vast majority modern movies. And that movie feels like a bad dub sometimes.

They often claim you need a proper audio setup.

I have an expensive (be it old) surround sound setup. Marvel and many other modern movies suck absolute arse. Having to pause and fiddle with volume going from a barely audible conversation to deafening noise in a single scene.

Fuck that noise, audio seems optimized for smartphone speakers nowadays.

The Dutch managed to tax it just fine. It has the same tax reliability issues any cash payment has.
