I can’t stand gyro aim so I can’t speak for that

No, I wasn’t looking for a debate, I was just posting my unpopular opinion, you know, like how the sub is meant for?

I don’t care what you use, as long as you have fun. To me, I use both, but I find controller to be easier solely based on the barrier of entry like how I commented elsewhere.

I don’t care about competitiveness, form factor, or anything else everyone seems to assume I care about. I know about aim assist too and I know it works, I know it’s in games that allow players to use controllers, however does it really matter? All I care about is ease of access. If I were to want to play a DM of any games, on mouse and keyboard, I’d have to warm up my hands, or crack my knuckles and loosen them up a bit, practice aim training and everything. On controller, it’s pick up and play.

Based solely on ease of access, I find controllers to be better.

Okay but you don’t need to be competitive to have fun. The basics for controller is if you’re on PlayStation, get a dual sense. Xbox, Xbox controller. Switch, pro controller. Going through the sensitivities for controller is a hell of a lot simpler than going through sensitivities for keyboard and mouse.

The barrier of entry is far lower for controller than it is for keyboard and mouse. If you can’t figure out you need a basic controller for your console, especially considering most times consoles come with controllers anyway, I don’t know what to tell you.

You can’t tell me it’s “objectively wrong” then list inconsistencies like that.

Damnit, not what I wanted to hear but thank you!

Uber Eats was like that too, and I just worked for them a few weeks ago

So theoretically, if I want to help out my community, I’d have to sit in parking lots at a store?

I’ve been switching between iPhone and androids for quite some time now, I have an iPhone 13 and I’m going to be keeping it for a very long time.

You have to realize something: sure, you may have already been in the apple ecosystem with your Mac, however laptops and phones are wildly different. From what I’ve found, androids only work because it’s open source (or at least more so than iPhone) and iPhones work because, well, they just do. You can’t expect something from one ecosystem to be the exact same as the ecosystem you’re in. That’s like saying you want your windows phone (gone but never gotten o7) to run the same apps and have the exact same work flow as, say, a Samsung, or using the windows phone and not using the tiles. It just doesn’t work.

Your expectations are too high for an iPhone. Androids are built to be customizable, but everywhere else lacks. You can buy an older android phone but good luck getting it to work out of the box. iPhones Just Work™️

Let me go down the list real quick:

Optimization: kinda went into it already above, see “don’t expect something you’re used to on one phone over the other”. It just works.

Customization: sure, apple is slow at adding features and we probably won’t get customization for quite some time (took them how long to add widgets), however with how secure and good it feels to actually own an iPhone, like you’re holding something premium? I’d rather have that than internal customization.

Privacy: you know Androids are just as bad if not worse, right? Look at Huawei. At least apple has the decency to tell you up front what they’re doing.

Modifying text: see this is a weird one for me because I have really large hands and I can easily select the middle of something I’ve typed and edit it, and also on a webpage if I want to copy some words, and I miss, that’s on me. The only times where I’ve failed is when I know I’ve missed it due to fat fingers, and even then I hold the space bar and glide my fingers across the keyboard to guide the cursor where I want to go.

Maps and navigation: I think you’re just using the app wrong, I don’t know how google maps reacts but at least on Apple Maps if I start navigation, and lock my screen, and turn the screen on for the navigation system, yeah, that’s gonna happen. You’re gonna have to unlock the phone and go into your maps app for it to work. And this also depends on your call settings too, if you have it for banner or alerts.

In conclusion: iPhones are different than androids, you’re used to an android so you’re going to expect one manufacturers phones to be exactly like the other. Give it time. You’ll get used to it and once you do, you’ll never go back.

Is there a specific reason? Or is it more of a “just because” law?

I don’t even know who that is, and I was surprised to see so many posts seemingly celebrating someone’s death

My province seems to be fine when it comes to the lack of mold on Costco products

My bank (RBC) charges me $2.50 after 10 or so free transactions, doubled if tapped.

I switched to Neo and I love it.

It’s especially bad if you buy from Costco

Oh? You can set an Authenticator like Microsoft Authenticator for Gmail accounts? I know about those apps I just didn’t know what totp meant

I think I tried that but it defaulted to Gmail, I keep forgetting how to actually change that, or at least make google keep that setting. It took forever for it to click in how to change login settings from pixel to iPhone (you know the google app popping up with the “press yes to authenticate”

The whole process just really confuses me.

See, once I was introduced to breeding in Pokémon, that’s all I’ve been wanting to do. Not necessarily make the perfect mons, but just breed until I have the nature I want and then go from there.

I’ve been doing research and the best game, well “best” game on the 3DS era that I can see when it comes to breeding and the battle (whatever it’s called) is USUM, but I like the difficulty of the gen 4 and below games.

Can you give me an example of what really important data could look like?

Genuine question, I don’t work in IT or work with computers very often. I’m tech literate, but the most important thing I really have is my resume and even then I can redo it if I lost it.

Makes sense, thank you

Offsite? When I googled that it showed a team retreat planning website. How does that work?

Dumb question,

If you have an external hard drive for your cloud backup data, why use a cloud service?

Maybe that’s it! I struggle to box my Pokémon for no good reason! They’re family after all and I feel bad 😭

It’s mainly due to the lack of knowledge, I don’t know what hardware keys are, nor do I know what a totp app is, so it’s more of a convenience thing for me and not pretending to know what something is or how it works

“If it ain’t broke don’t fix it”

That’s fair! :) I feel the same about the Gmail app, it’s not great, but it fits my purposes well enough. I saw the ads OP was talking about, I know I’ve seen them for years by this point, but I never really took notice because they’re so (in my humble opinion) discreet and not really noticeable.

Edit to add, hope you have a good day/night!
