Stick drift isn't when the sticks fail to recenter (which is what this would help with).

Stick drift is when the electrical contacts inside the stick change over time and as a result the electrical signal changes over time. A perfectly centered stick might have the same signal as slightly off to the side. (Which this wouldn't help with)

OTA updates are not an EV thing. That is all modern cars.

I just recently got rid of my oneplus 5 because the volume button stopped working. So I understand the motivation. But LineageOS has Android 14 running on the S10 and its very possible that when they release an Android 15 version, they also support the S10

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as a Gull, is in fact, Sea/Gull, or as I've recently taken to calling it, Sea plus Gull. Gull is not an categorization unto itself, but rather another component of a full identity made useful by the kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species components comprising a full identification as defined by its scientific classification.

Sometimes games ship updates that mess with the game. I have over 20,000 hours in WoW. But my play habits from over almost 2 decades ago don't reflect the current quality of the game.

And some people compulsively play games they don't enjoy because "once I get to the next thing, it will finally be fun!" And maybe this person had an awakening and realized that they will never get there... Or after this amount of time had a drastic change of heart.

And some people leave games open when they aren't playing.

I'm not saying this is normal or necessarily healthy, but it's not unfeasible.

It isn't just about ungoogling things though. Having a monoculture in the browser space means that if Google makes a push to favor ads, say by removing certain extension support from their browser engine that everyone uses, then the entire internet suffers. It is effectively a monopoly.

Mozilla tries really hard sometimes to be unappealing, but there is value in not just letting Google have full control over the internet.

Its possible that being the platform meant they wouldn't have been bought up.

"Well I bet your power bill went way up!" Maybe. But not by as much as my gas station bill went down.

When old testament says to love someone instead of just smiting people, you know that shit is serious.
