It was spearheaded in the 1600s by the Roundheads in opposition to Royalists; a king (Charles) was later executed and the Roundheads asserted their control over England. Violently. Constitutionally, since the 1600s, Monarchs can do sweet fuck all without it being approved by Parliament; in practice, this wasn't widely adhered to until after 1700. --- You haven't set a signature for the message boards yet |

xGhostchantx 09/08/22 10:24:18 PM #102 | Blue_Inigo posted... Oh I get that, it's just that most people saying stuff like this don't. It's all "she did this, she did that, she did the other" but she ... she didn't, she didn't really do a lot of anything in a legislative or governmental way. The last time the Crown actually wielded its power in that way was in her father's time, and all things considered in the past, he wasn't particularly heavy handed. Blue_Inigo posted... Uh they literally do govern the CROWN colonies. It is why they have those names. They control the legislature. They are the administration. The CROWN is who makes the rules. This just speaks to a remarkable lack of insight into how the monarchy in the 20th and 21st centuries operate; either that, or using linguistic gymnastics disingenuously or to promote red herrings. The Crown is not who makes the rules, and it hasn't been since the 1600s when Parliamentarians took control, who have been eroding its power ever since. --- You haven't set a signature for the message boards yet |

xGhostchantx 09/08/22 10:10:44 PM #99 | Blue_Inigo posted... The colony Aden, which is now South Yemen, was a crown colony. Crown Colonies are ran by the monarchy who handpicks a governor of that colony. There are multiple pictures of Liz there doing her royal bullshit. A monarch isn't just sitting idly by while their "property" is actively trying to break free of their control. Bolded is wrong. The Monarchy can, but does not govern (but does "own") This is probably the best way of phrasing it, stolen from a Twitter post: she didnt personally run concentration camps in Kenya, she was just a PR rep for the regime that did --- You haven't set a signature for the message boards yet |
Topic | Wow a lot of people hated the Queen. |
xGhostchantx 09/08/22 10:06:10 PM #97 | In 1963 the Yemeni people rebelled against British colonialism. In turn the Queen ordered her troops to violently suppress any and all dissent as fiercely as possible. False, the Queen cannot mobilize the armed forces. It must be voted on in Parliament. That is delegated to the Commander-in-Chief, who is the Prime Minister, and that situation was precipitated not by the Queen, but the Governor. (well, she can, technically, but she doesn't; and the Crown hasn't for over 150 years. The "real" power rests with the Parliament). NOW, all of this is not to say that she couldn't have put a stop to it, but that's another thing entirely. Everyone accusing the Queen of just about anything is blatantly wrong. --- You haven't set a signature for the message boards yet |

xGhostchantx 09/08/22 1:13:24 AM #142 | archedsoul posted... You got a garbage ass deal since there were tons of other Androids 3 years ago that were way better for that price. yeah, but that's due to the Australia tax :( electronic goods are wildly expensive. archedsoul posted... going from the S6 (which your phone is the equivalent of) to the S22 is gonna see a giant fucking difference in everything. I'm using an iPhone 13 Pro in addition to my personal Nokia. For general use purposes, you are a chump if you are not consistently running top end stuff. Personally, I wouldn't pay the extra $1k just to get 60 FPS instead of 30; it's not worth it. If you think it is, that's cool and I'm not really going to fault you for a personal preference -- it doesn't make you any less of a chump, considering Genshin Impact runs fine on my $400 phone. Not at 60fps, and it does dip below 30, but there are never any issues running it (or anything else). It doesn't hang, it doesn't take long to load, it's smooth as butter (again, outside the framerate). I haven't tried Diablo I reckon that'd tank my FPS pretty quick, but I wouldn't try Diablo immortal anyway outta principle. But this is all dipping from the initial point, which is that Android just has more features and is more pro-consumer. That's all. You're happy with the limited range of features? Fine. Don't care, and I don't think anyone else does, either. But it's objectively true that Android has more features and is generally more pro consumer than Apple. --- You haven't set a signature for the message boards yet |

xGhostchantx 09/08/22 12:55:17 AM #135 | archedsoul posted... It doesn't do the exact same thing though. The Snapdragon 630 is a bottom tier SoC from like 6 or 7 years ago. You're lying if you say it can compete with the comparable iPhone SE 2020 2rd Generation's A14 chip (the new SE comes with A15), which is only outclassed by the Snapdragon 888 and Gen 1, chips from the S21 and S22. I have never opened an app on the iPhone that hasn't worked just as well on my Android, and I'd hazard a guess that you probably haven't either. I'm not arguing whether one is better than the other from baseline performance perspective; I'm arguing that they're no different from a user experience perspective, unless your are running the most system intensive games available for it. Which you're probably not. Aside from that, their performance insignificant in terms of general use value. It's like buying a gaming rig cause more $ = better, but you're not playing Crysis.

xGhostchantx 09/08/22 12:39:31 AM #129 | archedsoul posted... Just because some $400 can do simple things doesn't mean it's a good deal. If it does the exact same thing and more at a lower price point, it's a good deal. Phones are not playing Crysis. I can still play all of the games available and I personally don't see any notable difference in performance between this ludicrously expensive work iPhone and my cheap as shit Nokia (7). I definitely paid for a shittier battery, though. I'm not taking anything personally: truthfully, I really don't give a shit -- use an iPhone if you want. But no iPhone arguments stack up against Android features except for the cameras. I don't hate iPhones, I used to use them religiously; but the available options on my Android outweigh the simplicity of the iPhone for me.

Man, the other thing is that people keep banging on about the processors but only ever use social media and text messages. My 3 and a half year old $400 Nokia has no problem running Raid Shadow Legends or anything else for that matter. Not that I ever do, but I can. And customize just about fuckin' everything to boot. Will it run Crysis? No, but your iPhone probably won't either. Anyone who buys an iPhone or any flagships for that matter is a chump; being taken for a ride but too scared to admit it yourself.

I use an iPhone for work and except from the folders and removing apps, everything else is right. We just have greater control of our device. We can change almost anything without having to jailbreak. Don't like stock icons? Download new ones. Don't like the way the home screens work? Download a new launcher. Want your home screen to pop at you in 3D? Want to make it look and function like an iPhone? Ubuntu? Windows? You can! We can remove Google services if we want (if flashed). We can quarantine files and apps; we can edit their permissions (some only if flashed); we can use third party APKs that aren't approved for the Google store; we can add and remove pages to our home screens; we can hide or remove home page buttons; we can restart our phones or lock/unlock them without ever having to press a power button; we can shift our power button function to a volume button (most phones require custom ROM for that). Worried about security? Want to deal drugs on the dark web? Download a new ROM!

Because, y'know, we own the device. People might not take advantage of it, and that's fine, but it's more pro-consumer than Apple and that's what a good section of the market desires.
