  • Is arbitrary busy work a good answer? Because that's the system we have now. Also production costs would drop dramatically after the initial investment which would make things cheaper. Of course none of the companies would actually lower prices unless they were forced to but that could be arranged.

  • It's weird to not distrust Meta, if you can't see that idk what to tell you. In 70 years when a company is using detailed data collected about you since you were 13 to market nostalgia it'll be too late. Even if laws get implemented in the interum between now and then banning data harvesting, whatever data is collected today will still be on the market and you'll be an even juicier target.

  • Corporations absolutely control the power what are you even talking about? The only time they listen to us is when it benefits them directly. Look at Reddit and Twitter right now, you would think the large user backlash would improve things but it doesn't. We don't live in a market controlled by you and I, the market it controlled by VC funding and what looks good on an earnings sheet.

    People hated the headphone jack getting removed but that didn't change anything. I very much did try to keep buying phones with headphone jacks and expandable storage but companies stopped offering them. Sure there are options available but they all have bigger issues for my use case than lacking I/O.

    The EU is requiring user replaceable batteries in phones by 2027, lets take a guess as to who apposes it... is it A) the consumers or B) the phone companies? I'll give you a minute.

    And oh boy would you look at that, it's the manufacturers who are fighting against it. So if the manufacturers are fighting regulators over this, do you think the free will of the market could achieve it more efficiently?

  • Fascism is a political ideology, not an economic structure. I also don't know how you could miss read a comment that badly, maybe you did maybe you didn't. Either way your comment is just really poorly thought out and written. Please try and contribute something more useful to the conversation. It was nice to not worry about people trying to stir shit up like they do on reddit, however briefly it lasted.

  • Trump has all of Bidens issues AND he's a fascist idiot. Trying to say he's in any way better than Biden just shows either how uninformed you are in American politics, or you think people like Trump are attractive candidates. If it's the latter you may want to take a look at the type of people who, in your own words, are making your country a "political shithole".

  • I didn't mind the fact that it was there, I was always just annoyed at how useless the memory hints were. Like yeah, of course I could spell "neither" if I just remember the e comes before the i... that's the problem.

    It's like saying "if you want to be rich just get more money" or "NASCAR is easy cuz it's all left turns"

  • I think it's a trade off because a lot of the people who fall into the less tech savvy catagory don't understand that SMS is unencrypted. I can at least see merit in the argument that a false sense of security is worse than no security. I wish they made it a setting you could toggle, even if it was off by default.
