Where do people buy things that don't break?
Where do people buy things that don't break?
Whenever I buy clothes they always end up getting holes quickly, I burn through socks fast, my bags keep breaking, my phones magically shit themselves and my chargers melt. I'm sick of everything being a wear part and I'm wondering where people get things that last.
You're viewing a single thread.
other people are addressing clothing, so - regarding your phone and chargers:
-
your phones shit themselves - RAM is a big issue (my phone has 4gb, fucking Android itself takes up 2+) along with apps sneakily running in the background (any food or grocery things that give you coupons are probably doing background stuff consistently)
-
your chargers melt - this is terrifying to read and I will happily scrape together some money for you to buy a nicer charging brick - please do not fuck around with cheapo chargers, your life is worth the extra $5 and I will happily give you the money to buy a safer one

ill chip in the extra on top to make it an unnecessarily fancy one for no particular reason
Count me in for delivery fee
I didn't specify this but I'm taking about higher wattage laptop chargers, not phone chargers. Thanks for the offer though. Do you know if Graphine is better for RAM consumption?
any food or grocery things that give you coupons are probably doing background stuff consistently
Is there any way to tell if they're doing stuff and restrict them? With or without root?
You basically just have to assume that they are doing crap in the background unless you get one of those de-googled custom roms that runs google play crap in a sandbox.
I gained like 10% battery per day by uninstalling a few of them.
telling if they're doing stuff
I think foss apps like Netguard and Trackercontrol would be useful to use if they connect to the net.
Restrict them
The same apps can be used to restrict connections.
Android app preferences can be used to restrict background data and background battery usage too.
And if you want to remove unwanted apps that can't be directly uninstalled, you can use the Android debloater.
I wish I knew, I gave up on figuring it out and decided it would be easier to just delete all the apps and only reinstall them briefly when I need them.
