Rexelpitlum ,

Remember playing this quite some time at a friends. But I think we played Wing Commander even more for some reason.

And way before that: Elite on a C64. That blow my mind at the time. Connected lines in 3D! Wow. And yes, I am old.

But my favorite of all time has to be Privateer II - The Darkening. Relatively open world with a cool background story and incredibly immersive with fitting prerendered cutscene visuals and lots of real actors doing the keyscenes.

Rexelpitlum ,

Anybody watched the video? What’s the verdict?

Rexelpitlum ,

I’m confused…

Doesn’t a rainbow contain all colours by definition?

Rexelpitlum ,

Interesting point.

And I am a little bit with the Japanese in this regard. At least my GF always complains that I am unable to correctly distinguish between green and blue ;-)

Rexelpitlum ,

Yes, exactly.

E.g. in Germany I don’t have heard anyone using Indigo and Purpur as major colours but only in combination with blue : “Purpurblau” and “Indigoblau” describing certain forms of blue.

So only blue and violet in german rainbows. And ultraviolet because most of us are more engineer than poet nowadays ;-)

Well in my case it’s more about where to draw the line between blue and green.

I can differentiate the colours but just still call things blue that my GF (and most of the rest of the world, apart from Japanese and the german dialect I grew up with as it seems) already calls green.

Rexelpitlum ,

What a phantastic thread!

We have had linguistics, sociology, physics and now biology in the form of colour perception so far.

Cross domain discussions are great! :-)

Rexelpitlum ,

Finally, I am not the only one! Feels good.

lf it is a region lock than even if you use a VPN you propably won’t be able to buy anything.

Unless you also happen to own a japanese credit card. And a shipping address in Japan for physical stuff.

(Sad European noices…)

Rexelpitlum ,

You could go for Lineage OS.

OnePlus Phones are well supported, even the OnePlus One gets regular updates.

Was considering buying a OnePlus phone just for that reason alone.

Rexelpitlum ,

l am using it to revive old phones since its cyanogenmod days. There has been a lot of progress on the installation and update side, much easier now, so perhaps just try it.

Much better than a phone without Seurity updates…
