Long story short, profit.
The not so short versio is that each manufacturer along the supply chain decides for how long they want to provide updates, the following manufacturer can’t provide updates that the previous manufacturer doesn’t. And so it goes until you get a phone that has 3 years of software updates and 5 years of security updates and that’s it.
For example, you might buy a phone from google, they buy electronic parts from maybe Qualcomm and a few others. Say Qualcomm decides that it won’t be profitable to provide driver updates to the SoC past 7 years and critical security updates past 10 years. At this point even if Googke really wanted to, they can’t provide anything past that as they would not be able to update the Qualcomm driver. But google has otger providers with maybe shorter support windows, abd they have their own costs and updates to make. So Google decideds that for them it won’t be profitable to provide support past 5 years and security updates past 7 years. So now you get a phone which will be unsupported after 7 years, and here comes the big difference between phones and most computers. Phones have a locked bootloader and usually a custom SoC. Locjed Bootloader means that you can’t just install another OS that might still provide some support, and the custom SoC means that any driver support will have to be only for this specific device.
So with an old laptop you might have a custom motherboard, but the cpu, gpu, ram, wifi, sound, etc will all be off the shelf, so if some linux developer makes some sort of driver support for your wifi card, it will also apply to all other laptops with that wifi card, but for a phone this won’t work, let alone even be viable since the bootloader is locked.
Simply put, no right to own and profit chasing means that no one really cares if your phone is a security and usability nightmare after a few years.

- Comment on Not really the future I imagined 4 weeks ago:
If your butt hole looks like the left you should probably go to the ER, if it looks like the right you should let us know if you can literally shit bricks, also go to the ER.

Why wouldn’t they be able to?
- Comment on PLASTICMAXXING 4 weeks ago:
If I remember correctly it is a real concern and also part of why developing a bacteria that can break down plastic is very dangerous (not just because it could degrade our tools and infrastructure, but also because it will release literally megatons of CO2 into the atmosphere)
Fyi, in the past there was nothing in nature to break down trees (lignin) and it actually was a problem as they would literally pile up and essentially be the same problem we have today with plastic (ironically it caused global cooling) thorogood.co.uk/treevolution-how-trees-came-first…
- Comment on Why are American cops allowed to be morbidly obese? 4 weeks ago:
Kind of an over amplification. Yeah, cops should ideally be fit-ish but even an obese person with a gun or a tazer can protect people, maybe not as well but still, and that doesn’t take into account the fact that a lot of cops are not actually on the streets but rather in an office doing paperwork etc. The problems are:
- There are maybe not enough cops that are fit for actual fights?
- Cops are ridiculously undertrained and unfiltered, giving us all if these assholes that really just like power.

If you are doing long term storage (5+ years) i’m pretty sure that tapes win on costs
- Comment on As you are doing it you never realize 5 weeks ago:
How? It is pretty sensitive. Why not tapes?

- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
Past 30 age is meaningless as long as both sides are happy.
Would a 80 yo with a 30 yo be weird? Yeah, would it be wrong?
50 and 30 is unusual but definitely okay.

My first thought was “why the fuck am I seeing a cum glazed slug earring?” Don’t know if it’s my brain or the design that is at fault here
- Comment on What're they gonna do about it? 5 weeks ago:
There was a story just now about this exact thing and how it got out of hand and the company noticed.
But it was different because the offender was another company

- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
This. They measure these body changes and some idiots decided that these correlate perfectly with lies, but really they can correlate with plenty of things. They start with a base measurement where they ask you simple and verifiable questions such as your name, address, etc.
Here are some legitimate reasons that can get you marked as a liar:
- Getting nervous because you are being investigated.
- An accusatory question gets you nervous
- Panic attack
- Physical discomfort, can be because of a long investigation.
- A question agitates you
- And more
A polygraph can be useful to help uncover the truth as it can help investigators possibly find subjects that disturb you and could relate to lies.
Calling a polygraph a lie detector is ignorant, malicious, stupid, or some combination of the above.
- Comment on I think we've all been there. 5 weeks ago:
Are you implying that all of these are actually different representations of the same thing?
- Comment on Anon measures up 5 weeks ago:
Personally I think the ideal size really depends on the acts being done for each person. Some people can really enjoy an 8 inch going in their ass or vagina, some might prefer even a 4 inch for oral, some like chocking on it, etc.
- Comment on Anon measures up 5 weeks ago:
Once knew a 6’5ish dude who had a 4 inch tool. I don’t how he felt about it but I can only assume he had sime struggles because of societal norms.

Yeah but for sex to be pleasurable for both parties chomping the thing going inside of you to pieces is considered a dick move
