I’ve only had 1 phone in the last 10 years that didnt wirelessly charge, and there’s zero chance I’d buy a phone without it again. And I’m really hoping qi2 starts appearing in phones next year.

I don’t understand the need for super fast charging, like it’s handy if you’re on the run and forgot about it, but I need more charging than my phone does, so it’s no issue to just plonk it on a stand when I’m resting…

Looking at Tesla’s support the US is crippled by the 120v power grid for wall charging, 3 Miles per hour on a standard 120v plug, and 23kmh on an Australian 240v 15A plug.

And not to mention it was water ingress into the bloody batteries, they’re lucky (or maybe unlucky in this case) that the car didn’t burn down from the Lithium…

HMD Global is a Finnish company, run by ex-Nokia executives. It’s pretty nuch the old Nokia, seperated enough to not bankrupt the original company if it goes bad.

The phones are no more Chinese than Google and Apple.

Same here, for my ISP it’s no extra charge, they just ask you why you’re opting out

I don’t believe anything is actually copied until you request it to be pasted. The clipboards in Linux mark where the data is, and don’t actually initiate a copy until there’s a destination.

The research is from Qatar, I imagine it’s a lot harder to grow enough carrots in sandy deserts and bedrock

I’m going to get an S24 when they release, have pretty much always used Samsung when on Android.

FWIW, I understand all the complaints about bloat from duplicated applications, but a significant amount of that blame should be on Google as well. I don’t use the GMail app, but I can’t uninstall it, so it’s system bloat.

I’m one of those people that uses DLSS, because I’ve got a large fancy 4k monitor that is big enough that is looks like shit at lower resolutions.

DLSS is better than nothing but it’s no replacement for native rendering, it introduces a heap of visual anomalies and inconsistencies, especially in games with a consistent motion (racing games look like shit with DLSS), so I tend to be having lows of 50fps on medium before I’ll even think about DLSS.
I’m also pretty sure Nvidia is paying devs to have it on by default, because everytime it’s patched into a game they clear all the current graphics settings to turn on DLSS, at least in my experience.

Unfortunately you can’t easily patch the fleshy thing operating the system

Similar experience with my Galaxy Watch 4 classic, had it since launch, don’t treat it carefully and I haven’t managed to damage it, and it’s been pretty much faultess for me.

Generally security programs like this that do keylogging are context aware and don’t include passwords, plus if it’s a managed device they probably wouldn’t need keylogging to obtain passwords if that was the objective. Significant amount of endpoint protection software will allow for RAM capture, which would have your passwords as well.

Furthering this, if you’re accessing managed applications (say OneDrive or Sharepoint) it’s common to prevent access to a device that doesn’t have all of the monitoring software installed.

Also using the Google Phone app for this reason on my Samsung, works great wouldn’t even think of moving to another service at this point in time.

We have Covenants at least in Victoria - https://www.planning.vic.gov.au/guides-and-resources/guides/all-guides/restrictive-covenants

Honestly, they’re kinda stupid and should have a mandatory end or review date, mine has stupid clauses like you can’t park a commerical vehicle within visibility of the street and restricts the material used for fencing etc
