another good place to buy a used one is https://swappa.com

Fair point, but I never had a Mac or IPhone on principle. Because I don’t like Apple’s strict policies. I’ve owned a PC since the early 90s.

Maybe they meant an IPhone monopoly in the IPhone world.

Never used an IPhone… don’t miss it

yeah, the screen on my Pixel 7A cost more than $200 to get replaced and I can find a brand new 7A for $250… not worth the risk of a bad repair

and this is the banner that I was talking about:

This is what you see when you run out of free articles:

I’ve never seen one with that much power for phones… at 5v that would be 6A for the 30watts one… must be designed for laptops

And that said, I don’t get the Wired paywall at all and I’m not subscribed. I wonder if it’s an AB test.

I dont get it either besides that obnoxious banner that you can minimize… might be because of ublock origin addon

thanks. someone need to make a bot that auto-post archive links for paywalled sites though

What happened to that technology?

They probably realized that profits would decrease.

On Android I use Newpipe for downloading audio-only.

We need phones that don’t break so easily and we should be able to repair them and replace the battery, at the very least.

if that’s true, you are probably opting out of them telling you they are using facial recognition… but they probably still use it… how else would they know how to exclude you?

exactly. each states, cities or even neighborhoods can be completely different…

Downtown Atlanta, moving just a few blocks can put you in a hell hole. Some stores need to have multiple cops guarding them at all times, for example.

no thanks, I like “risky” browsing. Never liked that Firefox implemented that Google feature.

buy a burner phone when you get there and leave your phone at home… also use cash and not credit cards… it would help to know exactly where you are going to be able to give more tips…

thanks a lot man, I will look into it but I have on-board gpu… not a big deal if I need to upgrade (I spend more on hookers and blow weekly)

tell me how… they are dumb as fuck and follow a stupid algo… the data make them somewhat smart, that’s it. They don’t learn anything by themselves… I could do that with a few queries and a database.

sorry for all my spelling mistakes… I fixed a few. I think everyone should spee(a)k binary anyways.
