Nifty, censorship built right into office tools now too. It's so great my word processor and my spreadsheet app can police my thoughts now too. Maybe they'll be able to use AI at some point and just detect when I'm writing t

Yeah i know. Playing an RTS or a Moba game or something with a controller would be a nightmare. Most 4x games like Civilization would suck a lot. Games like Dwarf Fortress, Cataclysm or pretty much any non mobile roguelike would be unfeasib

I'm not sure how this could really be surmountable. With a controller you have access to at least 6 simultaneous inputs, more if you do some finger claw tricks or have back buttons or something. A keyboard and mouse gives you around th

I tried pubg mobile and a few other mobile FPS games. There's one major flaw with using a touchscreen for those kinds of games, you need to be able to aim, move and shoot at the same time. In my experience, touchscreens only allow you

I don't think there's a single game I've ever played where there hasn't been a cracked version of the game released within a reasonable time of a game's release date or update patch. The only reason I don't pir

As far as I know, the audio functionality gained by rooting is no longer possible in newer android versions. I don't understand why the concept of 'rooting'(as it applies to android) exists. I purchased my phone, with money,
