ZEN FIRE ZE MISSILES!!!

Yeah but as far as I know no items (resonators, busters, power cubes…) go higher than 8

I joined Ingress during the closed beta, and technically still play, incredibly rarely. Before they started monetizing it with boosts and extra item storage and stuff, it was a really cool, unique game. Meet up with other players of both factions and either blanket the town and spend a couple hours hacking every portal high enough level to give good gear, or battle live for control of real locations. I once fought off a couple by myself, the three of us frantically running around a playground/park for like 90 minutes. Good fun, good exercise too.

When PGO was released, and the swarm of new players to effectively the same game (same backend, same locations, just a different visual and Pokémon instead of Portals and Lore) lots of places got bitchy about people coming around and not buying stuff, getting very Karen about the situation. Pair that with the desire to cash in on both games, and then tightening the requirements and restrictions for android (for a long time, I couldn’t play because I was running GrapheneOS).

I still fire it up when I think about it and have some time, but I haven’t been to a meet-up in over a decade, even longer for an official event. I’m still level 8, so I can interact with all items afaik, but my stats are basically a time capsule of a time forgotten.

Technically speaking, the suffering will stop when you die

I would assume Pixel only yeah. I’ve only had Pixel/Nexus for like… 14 years, so I don’t have experience with other brands.

Googling ‘how to reattach testicle’ while crying

On the android side (Advanced Protection), but yes I do, for both account and device. I’m currently running the stock OS after a few years of graphene, and the things I’m most worried about AP now covers (most important, USB data access if my device is seperated from my person). Had it not been an option, I’d still be replacing the stock system.

I’m not a high value target, but I have had people attempt to attack me and my accounts, and there is almost no downside (for the account side, you need a physical security key; for the device side, sideloading takes a couple more steps and reboots). Being someone that uses the same username almost everywhere makes it easy for others to connect with me, but also makes tracking and attacking me dead-simple. I also use my phone heavily, from medication tracking to to-do lists and reminders, emails and banking; and I figure I’m already using crazy-long passwords, MFA, siloing my data under my own control… why wouldn’t I take advantage of more security?

Thanks for the details; I was going AHHHHH the whole time reading that, but knowledge is good I guess. My vision is pretty bad (and I’m partially blind) but eek, not bad enough yet to consider that. Genuinely terrifying, even the middle ‘just a tiny cut’ option, if I have to be awake to any degree.

Granted: moms that live in the Sahara desert

Do they knock you out like all the way, or are you just loopy, or…

Anything stabby, pokey or anything else involving any part of my vision is terrifying to think about.

Monkey paw: you are granted unlimited food but the corporations recieve full compensation, so while world hunger drops, so does the quality of food, and new companies cannot break into the market because they are immediately bought by the conglomerates and quality drops, so nobody wants to eat

Oh, Spec Ops was great. I totally thought it was going to be a COD-like game all pew pew go America let’s shoot up a burger king and teabag the enemy, but holy shit.

It’s one of those things where I want to forget everything so I can experience it again.
