Yes.

I love every single game these guys make, but World of Goo is definitely in my top 10 games of all time.
I can’t even believe they’re making a sequel. It’s the dream comes true.
Going to replay the original in 100th time.

I use Metager instead - it’s FOSS and also has an option to filter out choosen domains from the search results.

No, next one is obviously the transparent alpha version to complete “RGBA”.

They require an extra fee to share connection via Wi-Fi.

Essentially, they can detect that your phone sends two types of ttl packets (your own and recipient device’s).

When they detect it, they cut 99% of your connection speed and redirect you to page with “Enable wifi sharing for 1$/day or continue at 60 kb/s”. (airplane mode toggle removes the speed cut-off).

I use a very simple solution:

echo 63 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_default_ttl

This line is executed at boot by djs magisk plugin. When the default ttl is 63, it’ll match the ttl value of all Linux and Android recipient devices.

But I still haven’t defeated the Windows detection: for a start, Windows ttl is 127, but even if I change it on the recipient PC, my carrier could see windows-related packets and still blocks me out. I even tried the vpn, but that’s still not enough.

I still root my phone for Freezing System Apps, reVanced, AdAway(system-wide adblock), Shell automation, circumventing Hotspot restrictions from my Carrier.

I’ve also been a customization junkie before (mainly with audio mods and UI plugins for Exposed). Not anymore.

But since then rooting to me become not only a means to the end, but an essential part of my phone, as in I get to control and choose what and why is installed/active, not the Vendor/Google. I would root my phone even if I didn’t had the need, just cause I like owning things, opposed to modern standard of “everything is a service”.

I only need a mobile data, no cap, 5-10 Mbps for 4$/mo in East Russia.
