Has anyone recommended Laya's Horizon before? It's a Netflix-exclusive game where you wingsuit fly around a big island with different biomes. There are a lots of different activities to do and as you complete achievements you unlock new magical capes (the game's equivalent of wingsuits) that change how you fly. The gameplay really fits mobile devices because there's no real story or main objective and you can complete a single run down the mountain in just a minute or two, which makes it perfect as a "time waster" type game. The controls are very fun and intuitive and it runs quite well on modern mid-tier devices (Snapdragon 7 Gen 1) and above.

Not sure when that would have been. I've also had an account for close to a decade and the registration process was the same as it is now.

It's a normal forum, registration is just an automated verification thing like anywhere else. You can download the Mobilism app without registering, although I can't remember if you need to sign in to download through it.

I'm not sure what's more amusing out of the American hypocrisy or all these football boot manufacturers pretending they are ethical for returning to cow leather.

Here's some criticism from The Australia Institute back in November last year.

And yet, if you look them up you'll find many of them have tens of millions of downloads. It's crazy the types of random shit people thoughtlessly download from the Play Store. The North Korean spy agency also had spyware apps on there until recently, targeting South Korean users.

SAPOL introduced something similar last year, specifically to target people who use their phones while driving. They issued 64,454 letters in the first three months lol

Most people a) have a Google and/or Microsoft account b) use Google or Bing to search the web and c) don't clear their cookies at the end of a session. So by default, most would be signed into their search engine (though perhaps without even knowing).

Some search engines like Kagi also require their users to login (because it is a paid service).

I'm a similar age and it was the same for me when I first deactivated my Facebook account, and still is with Messenger. After a few months of vainly trying to get people to switch to something else (like Signal), I just gave up and started using Messenger again. For me, the self-imposed social isolation was not worth the privacy gains.

Worst phone back ever? That is hideous.
