Sounds about right. It uses CPU for encoding (though it should have dedicated hardware accelerated encoding, so it's not as bad as say x264), it keeps screen awake, it actively writes in memory. That's gonna be a lot of energy usage for a phone.

The longer I live, the more Mean Girls looks like a documentary of feminist women, rather than a satirical comedy. -

I like Billie Piper, to this day she's still my favorite companion and even the best romance option for The Doctor. But this is so fucking retarded. How do you spin The Doctor regenerating into one of the most important companions he's had? It's not like the writers can just ignore it. They couldn't ignore it when Peter Capaldi came along, after he had been a small side character for 1 episode.
And this is so stupid, because I think she could do the job. She probably has a better understanding of the character then the last 2-3 attempts. If anything she should have been the first female Doctor (if you really want to do this stupid idea). But the writing will still be horrible. And bringing her along is a sign that the people in charge know the writing is shit, but they have no intention of fixing it. Just like when they brought back David Tennant in the role. They brought David on to invoke people's nostalgia and hope, but when went on to ridicule and belittle The Doctor. Great job assholes.
Doctor Who died. And they fucked the lore so hard, that they can't even go on a decade break and try to revive it again, like they did in the 90s.

I guess the thinking goes something like this: having the mic disabled should be the default, but disabling the mic leaves an annoying led turned on, which distracts me.
So while it's good to have an indicator led for your microphone, the light should be reversed. -

@LukeAlmighty Depends. There are some really fucked up forms of torture out there. Can't remember where I heard this from, but there are some bastards that would whip the sole of the victim's feet, and the damage and pain would be so excruciating that it would make it impossible for someone to walk for a long time.
And at the same time, put someone in solitary confinement for 13 years, and you utterly destroy someone.
There's degrees of bad on both sides, and in some cases prison might be better, and in others torture might be better. -

@LukeAlmighty I think torture like that might break more international laws than capital punishment... so it'd be harder to implement.

Great program! Love the thing. The only reason I can find it is I managed to remember it starts with "cz". -

@Inginsub @RustyCrab
Through the KDE distro I started with, I think Kate was the default. And I kept using it. That would have been 8 years ago, so hope my memory is correct. On what I use now, it's not, and I have to install it. But I think it's still the better known text editor for KDE. -

@RustyCrab Don't think that bad names are limited to Linux ecosystem, but it does suffer the most there I guess. As much as I love KDE... "Kcalc", "Kate", "Konsole", "K3b", "Kasts"... just... stop...

@RustyCrab k3b is for DVD burning, though it's understandable that people have forgotten about that. Kate is the text editor.... a damn good text editor, but you wouldn't know to search for it if you weren't on a KDE distro.

@LukeAlmighty And that's how you find out I never played League.
In that case... hhmmm... if that's game audio (not just interface language) my assumption would be that they're packaging their game based on geographic regions, to reduce size. Which again, makes Greek being there very odd. And it's still be weird cause there would be better ways to package and distribute things.

@LukeAlmighty If they don't expect, or maybe want, the game to end up being played outside of this geographic area, this certainly is something they'd do. If anything, I find the inclusion of Greek weirder, cause they're further away from the rest.
My initial assumption was that this was some random app (only words I recognize there are "chat" and "client"). And that would definitely have more reasons to be geographically restricted. If it's a game, that does make it a bit more unusual, but not outside the scope of possibility imo.As for why you wouldn't want to sell a game to a world wide audience, maybe dealing with American, UK, or other countries' legal stuff is too much for a small dev team. But again, I'm making assumptions about what kind of game, and how big it is.
If it's a small East European team, small game, and especially if we're talking early access, or early version, lack of language options doesn't seem particularly weird.
If on the other hand, this is a game the size of even classic WoW, sure, that would be fucking weird. Or if this were a game made by Koreans. Then it literally wouldn't make sense. Context matters, and I have little context to go on.

@LukeAlmighty If it's something made for Eastern Europe, it doesn't seem that weird. But I have no idea what this is, so :blobshrug:
