Thank Mr skeltal

Thank you!

Anyone got the link to the paper?

I’m fully expecting it to taste like vinegar.

I mean, you could set your phone outside the shower and record your shower, just speak out your idea and transcribe it after the shower.

Gotta get out while the markets are up.

My father got and installed two of the newer nest thermostats, and they are bar none two of the most annoying tech devices I’ve ever had the misfortune of having to fix. Have literally spent hours debugging them when changing the wifi password, they don’t support wpa3, and the setup app feels like a half assed student project. I know this audience probably isn’t interested in getting one, but if one of your family members gets some for free, do NOT let them install them.

Be honest and basically say what you just said. And obviously apologize for the mixed messages.

This’ll be interesting to watch.

Funnily enough, USB c can also do that.

Grass roofs have been around for ages, but they require a lot of structural planning to deal with weight, water, and when they inevitably have to be replaced, they are more of a hassle. Whereas paint probably just needs to be repainted, or reflective metal roofs last longer while not being too hard to fix (need a radiant barrier, but still easier to work on).

“It isn’t cheap” seems to be the biggest issue. Saw another video that showed it working, but he did say it was pretty expensive for paint.

Make more opossum-like maybe, but I think it’s still otherwise fine.

You’re forgetting getting into the car, where that jumps to a -5pts for a few min.

Depends on what you’re doing with them. If I’m listening to music and want fidelity, I use wired headphones (also with my Xperia 1 v), but if I’m at the gym I much prefer my Bluetooth headphones as they’re generally easier to keep in my ears for long periods of time. Just a point of reference though, I’m not recommending the airpods style of Bluetooth headphones, I’m talking the older style wired connecting the two earpods and when you’re not using them, they magnetically join together around your neck. They’re actually pretty decent with Bluetooth 5.2, can get a couple of days of battery life and charge quickly over USB c if they’re low.

I feel this is a very good unpopular opinion, as I think a lot of the annoyance about the fair phone not having a headphone jack is that they bill themselves as a sustainable phone maker who prides themselves as reducing waste and increasing repairability of their devices, something that dongles kinda fly in the face of from an ewaste perspective.

The same target group that they are aiming at generally likes stuff like expandable storage (so that they don’t have to upgrade devices just to hold all their photos and stuff) and having a dead simple headphone jack so they can use one of the oldest standard ports in the world to use their headphones.

Since most newer phones have multiple days worth of battery life, I’m more than willing to sacrifice a few hours worth of runtime (maybe even a days worth) just to have a headphone jack. And you could say that I am in the minority of phone users, which is apparently true, however I’d argue I am pretty solidly in the target demographic for a fairphone, which I’m not getting due to the lack of a headphone jack. I instead, got a Sony Xperia 1 V (stupid name for a very nice phone) which offered a 3.5 mm, expandable storage, and decent repairability.
