Sim Racing can be so fun and silly.

I had some fun for some hours hotlapping the famous M3 Touring 24h round the Nürburgring. Way too much fun. Still hella slow doing a 9:13 on the Endurance Layout.

A wagon being a GT3 basically still is way to silly but fun.

IRL with proper drivers its a proper GT3 car with the times to match

@quad dunno did you play SAO Fractured Daydream or not?

They did add a mode to it to play in singleplayer now as well. You will still need to connect to the server though. and rewards are not that high as in Multiplayer and you can't get stuff of a certain rarity.

But it certainly leaves the door open to them patching the game fully single player when its EOL

@quad sums up my ideas fairly well. Though I use mine often enough that a daily charge was needed on the FP3

@quad I mean e/OS is fine as you say. And my phone usage comes down to the basics anyway. but having a microG-option instead of needing the full google suite is a nice bonus.

I don't really care all to much if its "fully" degoogled or not. Hell I still use a Google account over microG for simpler downloading of apps over those alt-playstores.

it is nice that e does include a proper tracking and ad-blocker system-wide. For web-browsers I could use fennec (thank you uBlock Origin the GOAT!) and the rest of my apps is more likely then net foss. Some apps had ads though when I did not have root.

It is though quite nice that e has safety net patches included as well if one really needs them.

I was bigger into tinkering with android like 10+ years ago but nowadays I prefer stuff to just work OOTB. Just not wanting to spend the time on that anymore really.

So yeah I took e/OS and also installed another launcher and called it a day really. The FP6 does work better with it than my FP3 with microG that had some smaller issues. Like GPS taking fucking ages to locate. FP6 seems fine in that way.

Other than that I can atleast (hopefully) count on e to get my updates in a regular shedule and use the FP6 for a long time. Maybe someday postmarket also gets more stable on it. Would be cool.

e/OS has me kinda frustrated right now.

Like they patched out a basic function from android way back and never added it back it in again after stuff changed.

I mean come one accent color customization is a thing since Android 12.

e/OS does not have it. they did not add it back yet.

Seemingly they removed it for reasons of looking ugly sometimes back in the day when apps don't adhere to it.

So basically: You can get any color you want as long as its blue.

@puniko hewwo puni

hello from the fairphone 6

@quad fun indeed. I do not particularly for that right now Android 15 will be fine

@quad just need to find that FP6 android 16 image

@quad yeah having nicer phone that does not do that surely is a great thing....

ah yes the best android experience there is.

Get Fairphone 6
turn it on.
Update the software on it to Android 16
Install e/OS using the web installer.

Oh fun times so now I am download an Android 15 stock rom and e/OS and flash all the shit manually.
