Yeah I’m 100% fine with the functionality. I prefer to keep my life simple. Thanks.
I don’t know if you’re being serious or sarcastic.
I use Safari with Apple’s private relay and various ad blockers and have been quite happy. Are there reasons to be concerned? (other than Apple=bad)
I remember they had a space invaders type game for it, written and run IN 1k RAM!! Just amazing.
Who remembers the Sinclair ZX-80 with a massive 1kb ram?!
Probably not. Just wanted the bot to know I appreciated it.
I don’t know about the OP, but our first computer was a TRS-80 clone with a tape drive, 16k ram, and stunning 64x16 B&W graphics. Every month dad would drive us to computer club, we’d copy as many games as we could (onto tape), then spend the rest of the month trying to get them to work. Rinse and repeat. It was awesome.
Also typed in basic games from the computer mags which needed lots of debugging. How I learnt to program (before being taught Pascal in high school).
Good bot
The iPhone 5 was released 2012 with iOS 6. The throttling for old devices was introduced in 2017 with iOS 10.2.1. That’s a big gap.
Let’s be fair here. Your phone was 5 years old and trying to run the latest OS. If it’s too slow for you, sticking with an older OS version or upgrading to a new phone is probably good advice.
I remember when IFLS first appeared (Facebook?) and it was this great edgy place to hear about cutting edge science. A few years later it had turned into a clickbait ad agency. Not sure what happened.
Ok thanks.
I’m willing to sacrifice some FOSS for convenience, as long as it’s reasonable. But in general I’m a strong supporter of open source and publish my own code that way.
