Ha! As far as theories go, this one will remain just a theory hahaha
What’s bucket budgeting?
Edit: [sigh] all I needed to do was search the term… sorry everyone
Super cool concept. But I will never own another Huawei.
Gotcha. Ok. This article makes a whole lot more sense now. Thank you!!
…Yet both Android and Apple phones use MEMS silicon for their devices, so why were only Apple phones affected? The answer, it seems, is because Apple recently defected from traditional quartz-based clocks in its phones in favor of clocks that are also made of MEMS silicon.
So, they ask the question of why iPhones are the only ones affected if androids also went to MEMS, then answer it by saying that apple went to MEMS. Are they saying that the clocks in Androids still use quartz, but iPhones use MEMS clocks, even though they both use general MEMS silicon?
Edit, autocorrect
I had no idea this had a self-hosted platform category. Cool!
No judgement felt lol
Someone else called me out on it, too, and I decided to have fun with it instead of fixing it hahahaha if you can’t laugh at yourself…
Mainly, this is because I was writing official docs, then took a quick Lemmy break, but my brain stayed “official” hahahahaha that’s all. ‘they’ should absolutely be used in this colloquial context.
What someone feels is ethical and what may be legal don’t always match. From a legal point of view in every country I’ve worked at as a contractor, “time laying in bed thinking about problems” isn’t billable time.
As a personal time management solution, I don’t see any issues here. As a billable time report maker, it has the very real potential to get the user into legal turmoil.
Use at your own risk and made damn sure that the laws match your idea of ethical billable hours, is all I’m saying.
Sure, sure. But s/he reading this might appreciate the use of special characters to improve his/her password entropy.
Impressive, I gotta say
Outputting clean reports is one thing, but “normalizing” the time to make it look better, or as though I’m more busy, is something else entirely. I appreciate the effort, but this tool has the very real potential to get a contractor or employee sued for time fraud. I highly recommend against normalization of time data. The contractor either worked a full 30 or s/he didn’t. It’s black and white. Saying s/he worked for 30 when s/he worked for 25 is a lie, and subject to lawsuits and further legal action.
Unfortunately, no. The last one I’ve used was last year’s Samsung flip. Z Flip 5, I think. I really want to try the Razr 40, though, and the Pixel Fold.
I’ve used them. The crease is not unnoticeable. Sure, you may forget it’s there after a while, but it is still there. And that’s not what I was talking about. Specifically, the delamination that tends to occur after extended use. That’s the issue they need to figure out. And to your camera point: my phone has a cutout, and I hate it. It always gets in the way. Yes, I get used to it, but it’s there, and it blocks a small part of the screen.
My point with all of this, is not that these folding phones suck and shouldn’t be made just because it has a crease. I hate the notch. I can’t stand the crease. This doesn’t mean they bother you. My point, however, is that unless this is actually new, it’s not new and is, therefore, irrelevant.
Edit: as an aside, I’ve owned a Xiaomi, and it was the worst phone I have ever used. Actually, it was awesome for about 5 months, then started degrading, then turned itself off randomly after the 6-month time. I had to replace it after 6 months. To give perspective, I keep phones for years. The phone before that Xiaomi lasted 5 years, before it started having battery issues.
If I may venture a guess:
There are four of these chips (1302, 1105, 1507, 1202). Someone, trying to speed-talk, referred to them as the “four thousand-series chips” (instead of the “four, one-thousand-series chips”), and someone misheard or misunderstood that as the “4000-series chips”. After several levels of this telephone game, marketing got involved, and they were just renamed into the 4000 series instead of redoing the marketing documents.
Just a guess.
Did they fix the screen crease? If not, then this release is irrelevant, as it brings nothing new to the table.
Edit: I really hope SOMEONE figures out the screen crease, because the concept of foldable phones is amazing. Just, poorly executed currently.
Maybe we can do that to them…
Sorry. But that’s not cat dog.
This is…
No need to apologize, mate. Your comment was super helpful.
