  • I wish there were some big story / quest updates. Exploring the galaxy was a fun for the 150 hours I put into it, but after the end of the storylines and relatively few sidequests it got boring pretty quickly. This whole “Explore a new galaxy!” thing didn’t make sense to me either. What was I supposed to do that for? It looks practically the same everywhere. And there is nothing that would be actually new or surprising.

    I mean, I could still do things like finish upgrading the freighter and the fleet, but for what? There is nothing to do with it.

    Nevertheless, the purchase was definitely worth it. Games these days can rarely entertain me long enough to get that much time out of them.





  • Is VoLTE not supported by default on GOS?

    Yes and no. e.g. see https://grapheneos.org/usage#carrier-functionality

    Wi-Fi Calling, VoLTE, Visual Voicemail, MMS, SMS, Calling and 5G (SA and NSA) all are supported, however some functionality may not be usable due to Google not supporting carriers on the stock OS officially or due to GrapheneOS not shipping proprietary apps required in order for this functionality to work on some carriers.

    Generally 5G, SMS, MMS, Calls and VoLTE will work fine on GrapheneOS with officially supported carriers by Google.

    Some carriers may restrict functionality, such as VoLTE, on imported Pixel devices as they only whitelist the IMEI ranges of Pixel device SKUs which were sold locally.

    And https://grapheneos.org/usage#lte-only-mode

    VoLTE / VoWi-Fi works on GrapheneOS for most carriers unless they restrict it to carrier phones.

    So… it depends

    If your carrier is official supported by google, your carrier itself supports it and your device is not imported, it is likely to work.





  • Is there even a “before”? The very first release of Firefox was in 2004. Google started paying Mozilla in 2004. The only time there was no funding from Google was 2014-2017. In that time Yahoo took over that part.

    There was however the 2 year period from 2002 - 2004 when Firefox was still “Phoenix” which was mostly funded by AOL.

    To my knowledge, there is not a single moment in the life of Firefox when it has had to get by completely without external funding. And 95% of that time, it was Google.
