  • Your sample size is 1. Sure, you can get a phone that won't have battery swelling after 5-10 years. My old Samsung S9+ doesn't have any swelling yet, and I've had it since around when it came out in 2018. Whether or not swelling happens to any given phone is more or less down to luck. You might want to avoid Samsung phones to be safe though because there was that whole battery swelling issue with almost every phone from the S20 downwards a few years ago. Other than that I don't think there's much of a difference*

    *Probably something to look for reports/statistics on though

  • Note that a few of these are misleading...

    AngularJS no longer exists because the library switched to TypeScript (which can be used with JavaScript code) and is now just called Angular. For the non-developers, TypeScript and JavaScript are mostly cross-compatible, and having a typing system makes way more sense for what Angular tries to accomplish. They didn't actually kill the project.

    The Google Duo app also got more or less facelifted into Google Meet, so it's not like it's actually dead.

    Those things being said, the amount of things on that list is pretty crazy. Especially the ones that were straight up canceled and not rebranded/replaced.

  • I'm fine with a menu being there, just give me the option to make it go away by selecting a default or something.

    That single problem makes dolphin unusable for me because there isn't a basic setting to make it behave like basically every other graphical file manager on any operating system.

    (Edited grammar for clarity)

  • I think they're saying religious people believe that if it isn't an enforced rule by either the law or some religion, people won't follow it.

    (I know it's the jesse meme text but internet sarcasm is hard so I'm putting my interpretation anyway)

  • My system volume is consistently at 8-20% on windows (30-40% on Linux because it's a bit quieter usually) but every time I open a game I can't hear myself think. I always have to turn the volume way lower (30-50% game volume?) to be a volume I'm comfortable playing at.

  • Maybe a more mild case but nope, definitely still tinnitus.

    I have sensitive hearing towards higher frequency sounds (10khz+) and I've always listened at pretty low volumes (like 10-20% on windows for most headphones, even less on my easier-to-drive earbuds). Unfortunately for me I still ended up getting tinnitus but it's only noticeable when I actively think about it or when I'm trying to sleep.

    Seriously though, tinnitus is awful, it makes sleeping so much harder.

  • I think we're on the same page? If an attacker wanted a keylogger they wouldn't even need to go as far as a screen, there are plenty of other ways (like a 3rd party keyboard app) that would work just as well, if not better, on an iPhone.

    Hell, while we're at it, using a phishing email to get you to enter a password in a fake site or using social engineering to reset your passwords is way more effective than reverse engineering and modding a camera/screen.

    There's no reason why Apple should get to keep exclusive rights on repairs just to profit more on parts. 3rd party screens, cameras, face id modules, etc. aren't going to suddenly make your phone less secure.

  • I wouldn't even include all of America in that either. It's really just a rural America thing. Sure 99.9% of people will speak/understand English, but in my anecdotal experience, it's pretty common near big cities for people to be bilingual and grow up speaking a different language with their families.
