you can get rid of the AI bullshit right now by installing lineageos, that’s what i did and it’s a big part of making this the best phone experience available, there’s just no bullshit and everything works

indeed, plus i run ACCA to limit the charge level to 75% during the day and between 40-60% at night.

i’m on a used pixel 6a and frankly i have no particular desire to ever get a different model. sure it’d be nice to have something newer but this works absolutely fine and i would have 0 qualms using it for the rest of my life, barring the release of phones with hologram displays or some wacky shit.

i mean if you can’t give an estimate, don’t give an estimate. otherwise you’re just lying to the user and making things harder for them.
just show how much of the data has been processed and let the user make of that what they wish.

okay so yes you’re not serious and just trying to get a rise out of people, great to have that confirmed.
- Comment on Chirp in Fahrenheit 2 days ago:
huh? how is the freezing point and boiling point of water made up? how is the temperature of the human body better in any way?
The freezing and boiling points of water are by far the most logical reference points since anyone who wants to calibrate a thermometer will have access to water, and needs only go to the nearest ocean and bring some water to freezing and then boiling and making marks at each.
Celsius is the precise opposite of random.

unless you’re the sheep near me, who seem confused as to their species and instead act like dogs, including the wagging tail as you give them scritches
- Comment on Reddit lost it 3 days ago:
i mean i’m pretty sure we can enable people to communicate if they’re at all conscious and mentally able to communicate, stephen hawking was able to write despite literally only being able to move his eyes reliably. So long as a person can intentionally move one muscle we can rig something up to interpret it as morse code.
is it great? no, these methods fucking suck, but they do work and we don’t need AI to do it.

at the very least it should run on a machine physically sitting in your home, and have a memory measured in years
like holy fuck how can you get emotionally invested in a “”“person”“” who will forget things (or simply restart entirely) after like a month of talking to it and might just be shut down because the company moves to a new model???

- Comment on McDonald’s CEO is grappling with a ‘two-tier economy’ as he slashes prices on value meals—and signals backing for a minimum wage increase 4 days ago:
i remember several years ago as a kid thinking “hey why’d they raise the cost of a cheeseburger from 10 SEK to 13 SEK? isn’t the whole point that you can just fish out a single coin to buy a burger?”

fast food as a whole is just baffling to me at this point, especially since frozen meals that taste good and are of perfectly decent quality exist.
Why the fuck would i spend at least 8€ on a burger meal when i could buy literally a fucking kilogram of food for that same price? And it’s not like fast food is faster, that 1kg bag of hash takes 10 minutes in a skillet, even with mcdonald’s being 500 fucking meters from my house it’s faster and more convenient for me to just cook the hash than it is to travel to mcdonalds, wait for the food, and take it back home (which is annoying anyways and means the food will have gone slightly cold).
And no, cleaning the dishes isn’t some ardous task, get one of those sponges with a hollow handle you fill with soap, it takes 30 seconds to rub down the skillet, plate, and cutlery and it’s not even remotely messy.

considering how california alone is like 14% or whatever of the US GDP, i’d say they should just tell the federal government to suck eggs
