I was afraid it’d be like pandemic-era availability what with all the scalping but I snagged one from NewEgg today on my third try. First all-new build in seven years!

Edit: Hope the scalpers lose their collective ass on this one. ✌🏻

We finally dropped them after this bullshit. Also Loki S2 was bad.

Rachel of Rachel & Jun made some for her cats. Her DIY stuff tends to be more helpful than most IMO since it’s not just “I made this thing” but “here’s all the crap that went wrong while I was making this thing”. https://youtube.com/watch?v=Me587OYbyRk&t=215

Thanks for asking instead of down voting me!

This is what bit me. Hadn’t used the handset for a while. Ran updates and did a factory reset. The only fix is mainboard replacement, which our pal Google won’t do for out of warranty devices despite it being their fuck up.

Another, apparently unrelated issue:

If you want your phone to be permabricked by the manufacturer at some random point in the future, it’s hard to beat a Google Pixel.

For me, I think it will. Love my moto.

Had mixed results on Samsung Z Flip 4. One had the inner screen die right after the warranty was up. Other is still going strong, though the permanent screen protector has separated at the hinge.

Did you read the article? Biden made many of Trump’s tarrifs permanent and Harris, while critical of Trump’s tarrifs, hasn’t put forth her own plan or disowned the Biden strategy.

Edit: Fucksake, Lemmy. It says this in the article. I said nothing positive or negative about either candidate or their positions on tarrifs. 😆

Fuck driving. You’d be lucky to get me off the couch. 😆

Obviously ACAB, but…I have known a few jackasses who thought nothing of driving while high. Just don’t. And don’t reply to me about how you “know your tolerance” or that you can “handle it”. Fuck you, you’re impaired. Don’t do it.

Colonizers stick together.

I think it’s fine if Microsoft has their own nuclear power plant as long as every Microsoft corporate officer is required to live downwind of it. ✌🏻
