In ten years all phones will be crabs

Just buy used. You get all the goodies without supporting their shitty practices, while not even having to deal with the ethics of piracy. It’s all win.

It wasn’t a flexible screen, it was just bent. Also it was the back that was self healing iirc, not the display

Probably next month or next October

Same thing with my 2018 iPad Pro honestly. More ram and a better display? Maybe, but other than that it’s completely software limited

People have proven that this problem was massively exaggerated. I wouldn’t be surprised if in 10-15 years the SSDs of the vast majority of these computers will be perfectly fine (but only time will tell)

To be fair I had an 8Gb M1 Mac mini for about a year and never even once felt like it was lacking memory. I could open as many things as I wanted and it didn’t slow down, so I can kinda see where they were going with this. Not saying it makes that situation much better though.

I think the current base iPhones with 4Gb or 6Gb suffer way more from lack of memory than the 8Gb Macs, and people aren’t taking about this enough.

Will do! Thank you 🙌

I’m one of the devs, always nice to find users in the wild! 🔥

That’s what they do. Compare an iPhone 6 to the current ones, you’ll see they’ve gotten fat

Phones have stopped getting thinner like 10 years ago

Yeah :( It sucks because I don’t think there are any alternatives, and they’re expensive too for what they are

I don’t know about the 400Mhz part but I’ve had a similar experience with my 2012 Retina MacBook Pro. I replaced the battery multiple times with an iFixit one, and since then the computer has had all kinds of problems (dying at 40% battery, randomly switching off and other similar things). I’m on my third replacement battery, so either I’m really unlucky or there’s something fishy going on

I’ve been a heavy Telegram user since around 2016. I’d say the main thing I love about it is their focus on user experience. Everything is always super fast, looks nice and feels smooth. They’re often pushing new features which is always cool to see.

Plus their iOS/macOS apps look native and aren’t web-based, so it’s a great replacement for iMessage.

At this point I’ve converted my whole family and friends and they all love it too!

Yup! Been using it for years, it looks nice, has a good UI and works well. I’ll use the CLI if I need to but 99% of the time Desktop is the better choice (for me).

This is the ultimate YouTuber power move. Exurb1a and RetroGamingNow do it too!

I think I’d rather listen to some custom AI generated music than the same royalty free music over and over again.

In both cases they’re just meant to be used in videos and stuff like that, you’re not supposed to actually listen to them.

Right I see. Do you intend to keep that job a long time? If it seems to change you that much, it doesn’t seem like such a great idea :(

Yeah, that’s exactly how I feel too!

Did you suffer some emotional trauma or something similar recently? It’s been 5 years for me, I don’t have much hope of it getting better anymore honestly, at least not if I don’t get better

I used to regularly listen to music a few years ago, this was something I was able to really enjoy no matter the situation. But then I got depressed and I just can’t anymore.

Spotify will suggest me a song and I’ll be like « hey I kinda like this one ». I’ll listen to it the next day and it’ll feel super repetitive, as if I had listened to it hundreds of times already and it got annoying.

Thankfully it doesn’t happen with situational music like in games and movies, so I can still enjoy that. I’m also still able to listen to the songs I really loved before I got depressed (I don’t do it much though, don’t want them to get repetitive too). New music tho… I can’t :(
