  • "We will release a patch to completely disable NFC and prevent any NFC issues from occurring"

  • Undoubtedly.

    Who thinks he's being the CEO out of the good in his heart?

  • Almost seems like the scratching of the phone is intentional. It would bring down the resale costs of the device and make them harder to trade in, and prompts consumers to think their phone is older than it really is in order to get them to buy a new one.

    Not to mention that the heating issues on iPhone 15 are going to kill the battery faster than previous phones that do not overheat.

    • The old Thief games (succeeded by Dishonored)
    • Condemned: Criminal Origins

    Those are the two I got for now.

  • Developers, developers?

  • Damn thank you! Didn't even think of making my own keto pizza dough

  • rule

    Jump
  • :3

  • oh shit these ribs are fucking bussin

  • That's when you just see through their bullshit and don't apply.

    When you have other companies that aren't bullshitting, and they're also paying a higher minimum wage, the other companies pulling that shit don't stand a chance.

  • I think the implication is zero-click exploit.

    But if that's the case it should be fairly simple to reverse engineer whichever exploit they're using.

  • You can also use Fennec (Firefox) or Kiwi Browser (Chrome) forks for Android. Both support uBlock Origin.

  • That's not necessarily true, though it is also what I thought as of just a few days ago.

    At least based on the information in this video from MKBHD, excessive heat is actually what causes rapid degradation of smartphone batteries. Super fast charging phones actually work by reducing the overall heat to the battery through engineering designs, such as by splitting the battery into two parts instead of having one entire battery that gets hot. In this way, a phone that supports 50W chargers can charge "each battery" at only 25W, instead of one single battery at 50W. The space between the batteries also insulates the heat between them. It's simple but ingenious really.

    You do have a tradeoff of less battery power overall, due to the gap between the batteries, but it is definitely a technical achievement.

    I don't know how EV batteries work, but since the batteries are made up of many different smaller batteries, they could theoretically isolate the heat much more effectively than in a smartphone, which is all crammed into one battery in a tiny little space.

  • So the companies "aren't making enough money", which means they don't have enough to pay us, which means we don't have enough to spend on them.

    Hmm.

  • There's nothing more spiteful than not buying either of them

  • The Pixel 2, which is 5 (almost 6!) years old, had better transfer speeds than this brand new $799 phone.

    It's not even close, it's the Pixel 2 with 1.5Gbps vs the iPhone with ~0.5Gbps.

    Apple's software is good but they are an absolute trash company that routinely screws their blind customers.
