I’ll keep my unkillable Gen 2 Prius. 281,000 miles on the odometer, original engine, replaced the hybrid battery a few years back with a brand new one from Toyota (that I installed myself after convincing a dealership to just sell one to me) and knock on wood, but that’s the last maintenance item I’ve even had to spend any money on.

Too bad quality dropped off after the Gen 2 years.

Clickbait and ai bullshit from Google feed is pretty much all I’ve ever seen from them in the past year.

Newsweek is seriously trying to take a dry and completely humorless approach on this “story”

:-\

How that going to work out? You refuse and then the military is the ones that decide if you were given an illegal order, or you were insubordinate?

You chose poorly for Samsung. I’m still holding onto and using my Note 20 ultra. Their last great phone.

It’s looking like pixel may be planning on locking down root access as well, soon. Really, pixel has never done anything very great. No SD card, ok, screen, ok apu, pretty good cameras, meh battery, and meh storage and ram. Never anything special. Sony phones had potential but they’re always priced high and their software support sucks. I wish LG had kept making phones

Do you even know if that’s true for Denmark? It is in the US, but I doubt it is, globally.

They’re a descent phone right now with their OnePlus 15. Huge battery, good and bright screen, top of the line processing and 16GB of the fastest ram you can get in a phone, and less than $1,000.

My issues with it are that their potential unlocking and rooting is a bit up in the air, and that they only offer up to a 512GB with no SD card.

I’d buy a damned Red Magic 11 pro if they didn’t block root and supported band 71.

Yep. I’m running Linux on all but one of my machines. You at least have the option with most any PC. There’s a very quickly dwindling option to do the same with phones.

That’s not good enough. They’re just going to keep lightly pushing against the bad publicity until everything not controlled by Google on your phone goes away.

We need an alternative made without googles shitty hands in the mix. This forced duopoly between Apple and Google sucks. No phone competition in the US also sucks. Overpriced Samsung or a Google phone, while companies Like Red Magic have fan and liquid cooled phones with huge batteries, more ram, and more storage, for less than a grand being sold around the rest of the world outside the US.

It’s been posted as a link in this comment thread, actually. He kinda just skates around the question. Lol

Yep. And for the most part the answer you’ll get is just that "these are universal forces. Excepted as observably true, but the why is seemingly unknown beyond “it’s a universal force.”

We can mostly know what magnets are doing, but answering why it’s a universal force that just is, is a different matter. We just know electrons really don’t wanna touch each other, and I’m assuming if they did, matter wouldn’t exist.

Yes it is.

Another interesting thing about Feyman’s video is that since the time he made this, the reason of why ice is slippery has actually changed, and his long-standing theory is no longer observed as correct. It’s a different reason, involving dipoles.

To be fair: "A magnet works because negatively charged electrons repel each other. "

"Why do negatively charged electrons repel each other? "

“… Well … Ok, so hear me out. You’re going to need to understand quantum mechanics and then the fermion principal. Then you’ll know that the electrons aren’t allowed to occupy the same space, and the easiest way to avoid being in the same space is to not touch each other. The electrons know they aren’t allowed to touch because they’ve studied fermions.”

They tested that too, actually. Heat, I mean. It’s in a different one of the channels videos. It’s easy to find, since the channel only has like 10 videos and only a few are about phones .

You say that like batteries don’t need replaced every few years or that they didn’t design the Samsung Note 8 phone that kept catching on fire.

Engineers get told to make the phone charge as quickly as possible, while still lasting 2 years. After that, the company with those engineers pretty much wants the battery to fail, so they can sell a new device.

The one thing I wanted to see from that video, was also just testing the batteries until they went below like 75% capacity. The initial degradation may start off similar for capacity, but that doesn’t mean it will stay that way.

You’re an idiot. There can’t be a “safety brake” because you need the power and torque to scrub hard. If they were oscillating they wouldn’t work with using heavy pressure. That’s like saying you need a safety brake on a grinder.

Keep your cleaning supplies away from children.

Sure. But like I already said, everyone in here is blaming the mother.

What are you talking about? Everyone in here is blaming the mother.
