Not familiar with apple - does the last message being sent as a (green) text mean he got blocked?
In this context, yes. But I can also mean that the device could not be reached or the recipient switched to android. But for the sake of the joke it means they were blocked.
iMessage uses it’s own protocols and shit that are proprietary, and uses the standard sms protocol as a fallback. Android can use something called RCS which catches up feature wise, but doesn’t play nice with apple.
It’s to create an illusion of exclusivity and therefore social pressure to use an apple device.
It means the message was sent as an SMS rather than via Apple’s internet chat protocol. There’s also a whole thing that when you write with Android users, they always get green bubbles.

I guess, this could still mean that you’ve been blocked and it then tries to deliver via SMS, but I have no idea…
I started laughing because i thought the exchange somehow led to them switching to an android phone towards the end 😅
How to avoid going on dates 101.
Sorry I was too busy owning noobs with my Kamehamehas to respond right away. Yeah I’ll go with you! It’s a date.
This might be a weird question, does Eminem somehow actually perform in Fortnight (the game) ?
If it’s anything like the Marshmallow “concert”, no. It’s pre-recorded.
Info about how they did that: https://youtu.be/dPHPNgIihR0

Fortnite is kinda great now idk how to explain it.
Epic is trying to make their own ‘Metaverse’— just wait until Fortnite VR comes out in the near future.
It’s already a place for people to hang out with friends socially and just voice chat, or go to concerts, or go to Escape Rooms, or play music together in Rockband, etc etc.
Epic/Unreal will just keep adding and adding things to their ‘Ready Player One’/OASIS universe.
Yes but theirs is actually pretty fun. Zero Build was a great addition and now they have rock band, racing, prop hunt, and gun game. My friends and I moved to playing it recently and haven’t been able to move to a new game since.
I tend to agree. Taking the car physics from their acquisition of Rocket League and putting it into a racing game was a bit of genius. It is the most fun I’ve had in a casual racing game since MarioKart.
And,…that’s kind of my point. Epic/Unreal is acquiring gaming IP (Rockband, Rocket League, etc) and putting all of that into their own Metaverse/OASIS garden.
It’s an interesting Facebook-like strategy they seem to have.
Fortnite VR already exists, it’s called Population One and has the worst vr gun controls known to man
They probably saw Roblox, and realized that it would be a much better chance of competing to leverage and extend their existing platform to compete and capture kids and tweens that are aging up a little from Roblox. Every social media company is always gunning for the 12-16-year-olds because that’s who makes them “the next big thing,” so that seems like a great option for Epic.
Pretty similar, if I recall, to how Fortnite didn’t start out as Battle Royale and pivoted once it saw where the market was going.
But that’s just how it appears to me - I’m an Apex Legends player.
Does it have a first person mode yet? Not a fan of third person BR games because you can just camp on top of a building all day and no one will see you, while you can see everyone.
