What about running a Linux to go removable disk and just pull it when you need to boot windows?
Stainless steel, sharp edges, it’ll take your finger off with ease if you’re not careful. All traits I look for in a good kitchen knife.
They keep things locked down for the 50% of the population with below average intelligence. It makes things easier to trouble shoot when you can’t move the important stuff. Also that group is usually the loudest complainers when they can’t find something, or something goes wrong.
Or at least feature parity in the separate app
If you shop on the Google store, put a phone in your cart and wait a week they send out ridiculous discount coupons. I got a 7 pro for 400 just after the 8 was released. Brand new, no trade in required.
I can’t wait until the trifold phones become a thing, that way I can carry around a smaller phone that transforms to something larger when I need it.
Except the proposed rule doesn’t do that. It’s only regarding carriers unlocking policies. The owner of the phone could still be under contact, and early termination fees would still apply. Carriers are still able to recoup any losses on the hardware through those fees. Requiring phones to be unlocked after 60 days changes none of that.
As things are now, a poor person would have to pay BOTH. An early termination fee AND then go buy a new phone if they wanted to switch to a new carrier before the (typically 2 year) contact is complete. They lose any money they’ve put into their current phone because it’s locked to a carrier until they have been in good standing for the full 2 years.
So what it really depends on is if you think a poor person should be trapped with their current carrier until they finish the contract, unlock the phone and move to another, OR if they should be free to switch over to the competition at any time without onerous restrictions on hardware they have fully paid for via early termination fees.
This argument may have made sense a decade ago, but phones today aren’t making the generational leaps and bounds with performance every year. Even the low end phones are just fine for most uses these days.
If you’re poor, and I certainly have been, you shouldn’t get into these contacts that ultimately cost you more. You buy a cheap phone from last year and put it on an MVNO that’s cheap
Same here. I heard they released a handful of new upper tier pals but I’ll wait for the next major revision to go back
Guys we need AI on our blockchain web3.0 iot. Just imagine the synergy
Well the animation does look better than the animated Hobbit movie, maybe I’ll give it a shot
No, they’re aware. They’re just hoping the shareholders aren’t.
I would have assumed that it wasn’t in Sweden since like 2012 when Sony bought it Ericsson, but it looks like Sony Mobile ab got rolled into Sony Nordic a couple years ago. So they actually may still be designed in Sweden.
It’ll even play videos that are actively downloading
160x120 if anyone didn’t feel like clicking.
iirc you can get that resolution or better from a USBC thermal camera dongle
Thanks for the recommendation. I’ll have to check it out after work
Genuine question from someone with Nova launcher since like Android 6: do these alternatives have all the same features?
Wait there’s an astral photography mode on the pixels? I’ve gotten some half decent star photos with just the night shot mode and 2 second exposure, but I’ll have to look for it next time I’m outside at night.
That was my recollection too. Super slow all the way up to the finale when everything blew up.
