Requiring 50x the hardware no doubt
- Comment on Fairphone announces the €599 Fairphone 6, with a 6.31" 120Hz LTPO OLED display, a Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chip, and enhanced modularity with 12 swappable parts 2 weeks ago:
Eh I don’t really see a necessary use case to get angry over it… Transfers over WiFi have been faster than USB on pretty much all phones for a while now, and way more convenient.
I just drop files into my phone with kde connect. It means I can even start a transfer and wonder off with the phone and the mesh network keeps it going

I doubt it’s some conspiracy, but it does still suck. I’m on my 3rd USB port on my fp4 because I use wired earphones. Replaceable USB port was my initial reason for buying a fair phone otherwise I’d likely be buying a new phone every year.
USB C is not up to that kind of use, and BT ear buds suck…

The transfer speed over USB on mine probably doesn’t even pass USB 2 speeds anyway and I’ve had flagship phones in the past that were even slower over a cable. I guess it that’s still the case then there’s probably a good engineering argument to reduce complexity.

I wish I could ditch stock android but my business bank app refuses to run on e/os and I assume I’d have the same problem with graphene.
e/os was otherwise soo much better, and the increase in performance and battery life was huge.

If the 10hz reading implementation is good I may consider upgrading my fp4. A better camera would be nice too but if they get the power saving if that screen right then I’m interested…
Otherwise my fp4 has everything thing I need a phone to be

A thicker phone would be great. All these manufacturers forgot at some point we actually need to hold these things with a human hand
- Comment on Tesla Robotaxi Freaks Out and Drives into Oncoming Traffic on First Day 3 weeks ago:
That was great, the first comparison that came to mind after reading it was they are both a game of russian roulette…
Waymo - you get one chamber loaded with a blank, might kill you if you get it. Tesla - you get one empty chamber… And the gun is loaded by your worst enemy

It’s painful how Reddit that is…

Alright,

- Comment on Asus and Lenovo’s handhelds get price hike as Valve pauses some Steam Deck sales 5 weeks ago:
A savings account earns interest, you can pay into it monthly until product release…
How does paying up front before release spread the cost?
- Comment on Jellyfin is not just good... but *better* than Plex now?! 4 months ago:
I was on emby some time ago and got sick of user issues, I tried jellyfin before that but it was worse. Very interested to know how both compare to Plex now (since maybe 4ish years ago) as I’d be very open to switching back.
I think I’d avoid emby though as I found the developer to be an annoying weirdo at times when trying to communicate.
- Comment on How does this pic show that Elon Musk doesnt know SQL? 4 months ago:
Because that’s really just to be expected at this point, and what his audience would want…
Better to focus on constantly poking at him for being dumb, which he and his fans hate, rather than give them what they want, ie being upset at their hateful language
