You know the Eloners were praying for it to explode.

Fucking piece of shit Boeing. Cant believe they would land a god damn spacecraft safely back on Earth. We need to gut them and give all our money to Elon. /s

No idea what that means 😂

Iron enables the genocide.

Not really a hard choice for sane people.

Get fucked, advertisers.

I hope they figure it out. Sincerely.

S5 was not IP68

Oh forgive me. I wasn’t aware this device existed. Very good. Unfortunate its an Samsung phone, so it probably doesn’t meet the requirements to run GrapheneOS.

But good to see it can have a replaceable battery and be IP68 rating.

Im refusing to accept the idea because it doesn’t exist. Who manufactures one?

Maintenance is never free, so im okay with a service fee every four years rather than buy new phones every time they get wet. Im not saying my particular view is right for everyone, but its what I want. I get why people want replaceable batteries. No problem with it. I just would rather not have them. So if there is an option for both models, one with, and one without that feature, this is a win for everyone. If not, and only one or the other is implemented, then its going to suck for whoever is in the party that got left out.

Well then I like my phones a little bit more expensive then since they’re certified. Gives me peace of mind.

Ive needed the IP68 rating a handful of times. I have needed a new battery zero times on my 4 year old phone. If I need the battery replaced, Ill just take it to apple and have them swap it out.

Its still at 70% usability, which still lasts me all day.

None of those phones are IP68 rating

Hopefully they keep selling a phone with no user replaceable battery. Id rather have the weather proofing than a battery i need to swap out one time after owning the phone for over 4 years.

Agree to disagree then.

You miss family, yes, but you keep in touch and enjoy the wild journey you’re on. How hard is this to understand? These people are not your typical humans. They are sacrificing a lot for the fantastic research they do. Its fine if you don’t agree with their sacrifice, but don’t put words into their mouths saying they want to come home if you cant show that they did say it.

I feel that way even with a partner and kids who has worked on an extended business trip for the SLS program alongside NASA employees.

What if they want to spend a once in a lifetime opportunity on an international space station doing research for a year? Are you serious?
