Could be a hardware issue. I am running the same and haven’t seen any of that stuff. Sucks that you have though

I got one a few months ago and it’s pretty nice. No complaints so far.

Weird. Which model and OS is this happening on?

Interesting, I would have guessed that being left handed would make the placement better. I’ve heard people don’t like the button placement but it doesn’t bother me. I have an iPhone for work as well and as far as I can tell the buttons are in the same place so 🤷

What does that mean to you? I hear people say this all the time about various devices but I haven’t come across anything my phone couldn’t run in over a decade. I haven’t had a flagship or top tier phone in that whole time either. Are you talking about actual functionality issues or just theoretical stuff and benchmarks?

I’ve been using a FP6 for over a month and I have no idea what you could be referring to

I know, but there’s still a part of me that wants to avoid it. The last time I had a guy do it he didn’t even shut the gas off when he replaced a valve. He said “it’s low pressure, it’s fine”. I’m pretty confident I would be more careful than that haha

As a DYI maniac gas lines piss me off so much. Conceptually they are so god damn simple but the consequence of messing one up is your house fucking explodes. Every time it comes up I want to do the work myself so badly but I just can’t take that bet. Realistically I would be more careful than the average plumber but I still can’t get over the negatives.

Heat pumps are dope as hell. I’m glad the water heater variants are gaining traction

I know how that goes. My roof is holding on with only spunk and several tubes of roofing caulk.

You mean the shitty games? Oh no…

Damn, I guess he can’t play the same game that’s been rereleased annually for 20 years then huh. What a bummer

Many of those questions aren’t particularly useful either. They may be interesting from a philosophical perspective but that’s the language of thinking, not the language of doing. I’ve written code in assembly language. I’ve looked at the output in binary. I can explain in basic terms what is happening there. Does that help anybody?

I would argue that it doesn’t because almost everyone writes code in higher level languages. Even if I can tell you what I know it doesn’t provide any practical information for you to use. Similarly, I could explain to you how long division works but the next time you need to divide two numbers you’re still going to reach for a calculator instead of a pencil and paper. What then is the point of lamenting the loss of knowledge that no one uses directly? It could be reconstructed from what remains if necessary but since it isn’t necessary it doesn’t matter.

I love it. Perhaps it would have been more effective to just do whatever they did to the swings at the other parks? Either way it’s good stuff

Fair enough. That isn’t how I interpreted the comment but you could be right

Who gives a fuck about showing the Nazis civility? Punch them in the dicks and take their shit

Who uses edge though

Seems like we could all just mellow out a bit. You shouldn’t need to be afraid of saying stuff that isn’t perfectly pc now or in the past. Obviously there’s a difference between an off color joke and shit you would find in the Epstein files but I’m not particularly concerned about anything I’ve posted coming back to me. I’ve had bad takes (I’m sure I still do) and said things in the past that I no longer agree with, but who cares? That’s what life is like. You change over time in more ways than one. If someone wants to judge me harshly for that then we probably don’t weren’t going to hang out anyway so fuck em. Let them react how they want.

That being said, the implications of this kind of technology being used by corporations or the government are quite different. There may be value in what you’re saying from that perspective.

Whoever wrote that prompt seems to think that other nations having their own ideologies is the worst thing possible. That’s a common attitude regarding geopolitics that I’ve never really understood, especially from a Western perspective where differences in opinion are supposed to be seen as valuable (at least in the theoretical sense).

That kind of thing is funny if done infrequently but annoying if it’s all the time. I hope your friend does actually laugh a good chunk of the time
