Nope I speak from experience, we have a 6 with iOS 12. Also have an 8, which admittedly is an ok phone if horrendously overpriced but work paid for it so I can't complain.

I'm not speaking hypothetically, but from experience. I have a 4 year old 200gbp Android phone running Pie, took 10 minutes. I also have an iPhone 8, this is an Ok phone but is a worse experience than the 4 year old Android phone. Desp

Useful to whom, the companies employing predatory behaviour and psychological tricks to convince people to buy things they do not need? There's no nice way to put this but the world would not be at all affected or a worse place if your

Yeah that's fair, but (again, purely personal) I also wouldn't want to move from the Alps to live in Dublin, no matter the salary. I agree that the salaries are lower, but also tax is a fair bit less in the UK than some EU countri

What do you find so shitty about MP3, are you morally opposed to it's origin/licensing? Quality wise for listening you aren't going to tell the difference between a -v0 MP3 and FLAC even if you think otherwise. For anyone tha

I work 3 day weeks so I can ski the other 4 days/week. My hours aren't strict so in theory it could be 7 days/week but having tried that before, it's a bit too much to try and fit work into it without any time to relax.

Articles like this are so far removed from reality it's hard to take seriously. The screen on the XR is absolutely indefensible - it has the same PPI as an iPhone 4. It is worse than the 8, which is already worse than the screen in my

Eh we raided Mythics with 25 where most people had voice activation. Was perfectly fine. I think it's more about who you're playing with, if you are good friends with the people that you are on voice with, chances are you're

Anecdotally, it doesn't seem so. Even straight out of University with 0 years experience, salaries among my cohort seemed to be between 30-40k GBP and this was some years ago. Not to say that there isn't companies making terrible
