Yikes! The latest generation of whirlpool products seem to be at a new low in terms of quality and reliability. I have no experience with induction plates/ranges yet, though it sounds like I'll be getting plenty of calls on them when they become more popular around here!

Well if the richest man in the world wants something, he's gonna let everyone know

Let's make government smaller!

/Proceeds to expand government, including unelected officials

I recently repaired an Ikea dishwasher. Turned out it was a Whirlpool-built unit. Decent one, at that.

Agreed! It's a shame it's come to this, but i don't blame anyone for doing what's in their best interests in response to this. Clearly trump and leon are doing everything for their own be$t interests

As an American, this is wacky to read--but I'm fully in support. What can i say, i think there's some good ones here but not enough to balance out all the shite ones ¯(ツ)/¯

It was a good run, i guess? Lol

Lol, i forgot that Tesla is a status symbol

That's a weird mixture of hate and environmental concern. They love the planet but hate other races, i guess?!? Want the planet all to themselves but not all smoggy and dying?

Just watch, he's gonna start this trend for the right wing

I don't know what this is but it reminds me vaguely of Adventure for the Atari 2600. That arrow/sword was the shit

I just read this article that expands on that thought. They're trying to sustain mass-outrage with never-ending headline news. Most things he's attempting are being done by Executive Order, he doesn't have the support to have things passed through traditional means. Lots of the things he'll attempt won't get anywhere but the headlines are good enough for him to use as a distraction. I'm not saying bad things aren't happening. However, it does appear there may not be as much success in his attempts to fuck everything up as there are headlines detailing the attempts. I'm not 100% sure i fully agree with this article, but i found it thought-provoking. Certainly open to hearing anyone's thoughts on this too: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/02/opinion/ezra-klein-podcast-trump-column-read.html?unlocked_article_code=1.uk4.6pOw.Db_3T-xndI_z

Maybe they'll wanted to see if Tesla will sue him for selling it, lol

Geez, if the broncos are only ~$4.5B what's to stop Leon from buying the entire NFL?!?!

😱

They know nobody will hold them accountable. It's been proven ad nauseam

The sharpie is mightier than the pen

Sounds like he'll fit right in with this administration

What improvements do you like? Maybe there's something I'm overlooking. I also agree on size, i really didn't want anything larger than the 4a and the 8 was the closest i could find.

Welp I was proven wrong.

Either way I’m still right.

Well that clears everything up, lol

I had a couple 4a and now have an 8. Don't bother -- I'm convinced there are better phones for the $. Not to mention better companies to buy from, after this shit show

Why do that when they can finally force people off their halfway-decent hardware in favor of their latest crap? I had a 4a and liked it, worked fine for my purposes. When it crapped out i just got another 4a. Eventually the newer one started boot-looping intermittently and i decided it was time to upgrade to something more "modern". After spending way too much time researching the current options and cornering myself into options paralysis, i decided maybe the best choice was to "double" my pixel and jump from a 4 to an 8. I figured that many generations difference should provide for a notably better/faster experience. It didn't. I liked the 4a just as much as my 8--only difference being some very small changes in options and menus. Performance-wise it's not opening pages with blazing speed, the 5G doesn't really seem to be any faster than the 4G i had been using on the Pixel 4a. Camera performance is a little better but nothing ground-breaking. I think it's possible i get worse telephone performance, i occasionally get dropped/static-y calls and sometimes can't call at all. Overall i was really disappointed to see my upgrade act more as a lateral move. I probably should have just gotten another 4a when my last one died. Of course, it would probably need a battery now, lol. Or have the boot-loop problem.

Welcome to the future, where the tech is cutting edge but built with the cheapest components possible 🙃
