OpenAI just replaced its core values with completely different ones

Faktas, kad telefonai mūsų klauso, bet pasidalinkit labiausiai wtf momentais, kai pradeda reklamuoti tai, apie ką prieš tai kalbėjai su kuo nors. Mes va su drauge buvom mieste, bandėm surasti tualetą kur nors, po kelių valandų facebook'e jau tokias reklamas meta lol

2.7M Brits still use a 3G only handset, as the 3G switch off looms closer
I have a 3G device still able to watch YT and a very old Kindle Fire that has NewPipe [1] installed for watching YT in bed (whilst my phone is on charge).
I don't see why not either - if the device was capable of H264 when it was released, why not now?
