headphone jack, NFC, and microSD

The holy trinity.

I need to move on from my LG (RIP) G6 soon due to battery life and apps becoming unsupported so I've been shopping around.

Right now I have a headphone jack, NFC, MicroSD, FM Radio and 4k video recording.
I'll probably have to give up the radio at least if not more to get a well rounded phone.

The G6 came out 7 years ago but it feels like most new phones are a downgrade in comparsion.

It's an impressive FOSS project, scracthes the fast paced Quake itch but not a lot of people have that these days.

I use to play it's predecessor Nexuiz for years, you might recognize a few maps as some were updated for Xonotic.

Shout out to the crew who played on the HOCTF server. Had well over a 1000 hours on there.

This was talked about briefly in October but it's still flying under the radar imo. The Oct 7th attack took place on these very left leaning pacifist communties who believed in peace and liked to work with the Palestinians and their cause, more than most Israelis.

Many of the kibbutzniks who experienced October 7 can't bear to hear Arabic and want to see Gaza erased.

The trauma is stronger than their worldview

I was wondering if it might push those with that pacifist/hippy outlook on life to change and it appears it has.

When even the hippies are yearning for scorched earth tactics it doesn't bode well for winding down of military operations anytime soon. It also makes me think we're far more likely to see more serious military action roll into Lebanon within a few months.

TL:DR RIP peace. We never knew ye.
