Satellite radio doesn’t require your phone to have solid signal. Going out into the boonies? As long as you can see the sky you’re chance of losing radio is almost none. I used to love having satellite radio until I started working from home. Now I have almost everything I want on a downloaded playlist to my phone.
Absolutely. I use my tablet almost exclusively as a media device but I do feel it could be so much more. It is nice though to use it while my phone is charging overnight and not wasting battery on the phone while traveling.
I can’t say off the top of my head. Power tripping is the best first guess I have. I kinda equate it to anything that could help people live longer. Why don’t they give out insulin at better prices so people live longer and buy more stuff? That’s logically the smarter move, right?
You know they are always thinking how they can use it to only benefit themselves. Don’t kid yourself on that, they’re leeches and this is their mentality
The idea of antiwork isn’t bad though. We should use anything and everything we can to utilize automation to allow people to live with as little work as possible. Is that a reality today, no. Can it be a reality in the future, maybe. Things will need maintenance and upkeep, people will want to innovate and try to build new things, etc. But that doesn’t mean we can’t work on things like UBI, free housing, free medicine, free education, etc.
The idea of heading that direction is (what I understood) the main goal. We’re just going to need to take steps to get there and changing the terrible labor practices we currently have became step 1 and thus a majority of the focus in the subreddit.
That’s a great question. I would assume so since the whole point would be to strip out odd encodings. I don’t have to do it often enough saved in going to assume that option will depend on the program/OS and if it supports it.
Kinda related, I always copy paste into a “simple” text editor before I copy paste into something else. Slack is so bad about having hidden characters I don’t even want to think what other sites/programs do.
But think of the estates!
Yeah, end of the year. Link to a lemmy world post
That’s what I would go for then, yeah.
Yeah, I guess the question was more of if you’re going to have a lot of media on the drives and you’re on a budget. If that was the case it could be a reason to go more storage vs SSD only. If it’s gaming then I’d take the SSD to store more games on the faster drive.
That’s the way I would go as well. What’s the main stuff being stored on the drive?
Exactly, but I do wonder if the huge backlash from before was maybe a thought in the back of their mind. But I would bet it’s mostly getting licensing fees from MFi.
In September 2012, Apple announced the Lightning connector with the promise of being a “modern connector for the next decade.”
They specified 10 years (and I believe they said this because of the huge backlash of switching from the 30 pin connector) but I don’t know if they were truly saying it was going to last 10 years. Either way I’m glad they’re switching and I’ll probably turn in my 12 Pro for USB-C even though this phone is fine as is. Just hate carrying extra cables when I go on vacation and such.
Also don’t get the iPhone vs Android “war”. When I tell people I’ve gone from Android to Apple to Android and settled on Apple people think I’m crazy.
Yeah, nice catch!
