if it dies, will he have to pay the debts ?

totally. and if scraped, they must be able to provide the source. I don’t care if it costs them money/compute time. They are allowed to grow with fake money after all

Do you realize there’s a difference between one or few “events” and a platform promoting it? There’s a fishy attempt to bind Musk to any right-wing/nazi shit.

Any proof ?

I go regularly on Twitter/X, I still have to see suggested hate/nazi/whitethingy in my timeline. How people get exposed to this shit ?

that’s fine, pal :)

I am not fighting you, pal. I just want to avoid the argument “it’s not because you don’t need it that bla-bla”, of course, I prefer protection but we need to find the right tradeoff, Glueing case, removing and risking to break a glued expensive and serialized screen to reach the battery: nope

Sorry, but that’s an awful comparison, and it isn’t even true. The Note 4 was actually ~10% thicker than the base iphone 14,

You don’t get it, first 10% (actually ~6%) is pretty ridiculous and I took the biggest phone at the time that people were buying and using, actually I still have it. :) We could take the Note20, which is 0.830mm thick (0.785 for the 14 Pro Max and as big). Clearly, in this model, the backplate wouldn’t have needed to get glued, if +0.020mm is all it needs to get a removal plate, let’s got for it. I take extreme high-end smartphone as a ceilling, smartphone too big to my taste but which people buy and use.

*When I’m back from traveling, I will compare my wife’s iPhone Pro max and my Note4, to see if this one is unacceptable. :)

where did you live the last 10years when battery were replaceable on highend smartphones?

I don’t say I would need it, but that’s not an excuse to not have replaceable battery. A so called waterproof sticker is $0.05. So, it could be sold with the new battery.

I personally have been bringing my phone in the shower for years.

total valide use case. (hem!)

In my mind, in a shower, I use both hands and it doesn’t take more than 5min.

I take in account what has been done by the past in the last decade, a Samsung Note 4 (8cores, 4Gb, etc…) had its battery easily replaceable and it is not any bigger than an iPhone 14!

Industrial design is about tradeoffs

Nope, for battery removal, nope!
Are you going to say that pentalobe screws is also a trade-off.

Also, smartphone are just too thin and it’s because you use a case that you tend to forget about it.

I have think really really hard to find an event in the last 14years where I would have needed a water resistant phone. It doesn’t need to be IP67

true, not AI but it’s doing a quite impressive job. Injecting fake money should not be allowed and these companies should generate sales. Especially in disrupting in some human field, even if it is a fad.

You can compete OK, but you use your own money and benefits to support your cost.

Yeah I know, something is called “investment”

Of course. Sure, AI image generated stuff are impressive but no way those companies could cover the operational, R&D cost if VC were not injecting shit load of fake money.]

Thank you, but I was talking about heat generated by the fires and compound build-up (eg: co2), while the last one might bring its effects later.

Just to be sure, I talk about these figures, not the global climate deregulation.

Couldn’t the massive fires (energy and compounds generated) exacerbate these values?

Don’t make me say what I didn’t say.

UI is still a bit weird. I enjoy Lemmy but linking or getting back to the context of a comment is still not possible (on Firefox/Chrome)

They had long longevity cause you didn’t need a fucking client/gatekeeper (win only) to be allowed to use it, no DRM, was cross-platform from the beginning, was light, still light and the gameplay is simply awesome.

how long before our beautiful UE thinks about doing the same?

I know about the PinePhone Pro and I am quite experienced.
But even hardcore hairy dude like Drew Devault disavowed it (source).
