I am very sorry you all are living like that, it would drive me mad.

However you classify them, they are deadly to many people.
It can’t possibly have any relationship to morons like Florida’s Surgeon General citing bogus claims and vaccine efficacy denialism could it?
Anything that helps demonitize Twitter is good in my opinion!
Haha I’ve been trying too.
If only more people would move to Mastodon it could drop another 50% in value!
I’ve been getting these for ages now… UPS, USPS, endless scam texts all the time!
This 100%! I barely used Twitter to begin with, but as soon as he went off the deep end, I completely deleted my account.
And we do realize that revenue is different from net profits correct?
Oh ONLY 68 MILLION dollars, not to mention the ever increasing cost of living for all the other unionized cast and crew. I suppose they can totally just absorb those costs, or people should not get cost of living increases right… The company has a little over a 10% profit margin, which doesn’t seem egregious to me.
Love the down votes haha… I guess people don’t want to actually pay for creators to make content. I don’t think the average person has any idea how much content creation costs, nor how time consuming it is.
This shouldn’t really surprise anyone, the writers all finished striking for MORE MONEY. Services aren’t free, content isn’t free. Netflix hires a lot of writers and endless unionized people to make their shows and films. If we all want to be part of making society more equal it does infact come with higher costs for our selves, and I am perfectly fine with that.
Technically, but not like it uses to be… the back still has to come off which uses adhesive, and a few little cables have to be moved, but you can check out a few tear downs. I don’t understand why we can’t have water tight backs that use an O and screws, but I guess that would make it to easy to fix things, so lets use more glue.
I ended up getting the S23 Ultra, (had to come out of pocket a bit), and if you get Samsung’s Care+ insurance it’s $8 a month, so basically $100 a year if something goes catastrophically wrong. I will probably carry that insurance for the first two years or so of owning the phone. Given I rely upon my phone for a ton of business, my home phone, social communication etc, it seems fairly reasonable as they claim to have 24 hour replacement.
Contract subsidies are kind of coming back in the form of “trade in bill credits.”. Previously you’d sign a 2 year contract and they would subsidize your phone, however; I just got $800 of trade in credit at Verizon for a phone they normally give $150 for.
The catch, of course there are many… the bill credits are over 3 years, and in my case fully offset the cost of the monthly phone purchase price; if you leave you need to pay off the remaining balance, and if you upgrade you lose your credits. Also you need to be on an unlimited plus plan.
However; I now have a new phone with no additional monthly payments. The last Samsung I had made it 5 years, and the new one actually has a serviceable battery!
Small houses in most Florida Metro areas are in the 400k range… Multiple 3/2s in the 1500sq range are 500k+
It’s abysmal at this point… Whatever they did to it, the results are now awful and far more inaccurate than they were a few months back.
I don’t know where you got that info from but that is certainly not the norm… There are Tesla cabs in Vegas with over a million miles, and most of these battery packs retain close to 90% of their capacity even after 10 years. I’m sure there are exceptions, but 3 years is silly.
Yes there are problems and hurdles to overcome but I’d rank that pretty low.
My experience mirrors this, though I don’t use it for much beyond a specific use case… I’m wondering why they neutered it so much?
Please don’t ban me… I joined .ml because it was privacy, security and FOSS focused! I had no idea about the ancillary political focus now associated with it.
