A. I was commiserating with you.
B. Not sure where you are coming from with that weird judgment about my shallow reasoning and arrogance, lol.
C. Cheers mate. Maybe you should take a break.
Yeah, man. This crowd doesn't really care about the point you were trying to make. Lemmy just wants to vote their feelings.
Don't sweat it.
That's my guess.
Looking at how people are commenting here, they would find six ways he committed a war crime, and whine how much he destroyed their day, and what a terrible, clueless person he is, if he just said, "Good afternoon."
I'm kind of curious why the article was even written. The guy is clearly out of the public eye and hardly anyone wants to know what he thinks anyways.
Why would he invite anymore scrutiny?
Some guy on here is still commenting on his painting, lol!? That was a stupid complaint when it first came out. Now it just makes the commenter look weird.
Most schools make you buy a clear backpack, so they wouldn't be able to use these anyway.
What you said:
"the battery of the Pixel sucks balls."
I was shocked because I took you at face value and thought maybe I got lucky with mine.
Then you started talking shit about your phone working for weeks at a time and and I thought, "Who has a smartphone that works for weeks at a time without charging?"
So I looked it up. You basically have a special use phone with a battery twice the size of everyone else's. Then you get on a thread talking about Graphene OS and say, "Pixel batteries sucks balls."
Then to try and support your argument, you pull up a review that just says it "doesn't quite live up to the standard"
From the article YOU posted:
"The average result for smartphones on our test is to post a time that's just shy of 10 hours."
The Pixel 8...posted a time of 9 hours and 50 minutes on our test."
So the worse thing you can say is the Pixel's batteries are average.
So like a typical redditor, you're just shooting your bitch mouth off, half cocked, spouting bullshit, pretending you know what you're talking about.
If you were really trying to be informative, you would have said something along the lines of, "There are phones that are designed to have much longer battery life. But oh yeah, almost every other feature will be worse."
But you said, "PIXEL BATTERIES SUCK BALLS", and then provide a review that places them right at the average.
You started this conversation. Think about that next time you want to post something stupid
Man, if my work would let me purchase my travel on it too, instead of the company card... I'd be Global Services for sure.
For the record, I looked it up. The pixel falls in line with most other mainstream phones. Depending on the model it can be in the lower half, sometimes upper half, but always top ten.
Your phone seems to be specifically designed for ruggedness and battery life.
In fact of all the reviews I can find, about your phone they essentially say: it works ok as a phone but hey, I can throw it against a wall and it has awesome battery life.
So calling out the Pixel specifically and using the Oukitel as a metric is just straight up fuckery.
That's the kind of crap that needs to be left on Reddit. Go back there to post your gatekeeping bullshit.
I disagree. I think that claiming something "sucks balls" because it will only last two days of normal use before dying, if you don't charge it all all, is absolutely ludicrous.
If I just text and leave my screen dim, I could get a whole week out of my phone. But that's not why I got a smart phone. I got a smart phone so I could use it, not see how long I could get the battery to last.
There is no what about female circumcision. There is nothing controversial about it. It IS mutilation.
Great. I don't need that. That's not even close to a selling point.
I guess if I needed to hike without a power source for a week, it would be.
I've almost never had an issue. Like ever, unless I forget to set my phone on a charger when I went to bed. And even then, it would just be in the single digits by the end of the second night.
I think I've had my phone die on me twice since I've had it (Pixel 6 Pro).
I never saw the movie, but I remember when I worked at Blockbuster, the movie's cover box had a button you could press, that would play the sound bite, "Wanna date?!"
It would be hilarious... on a slow Tuesday evening, there'd be maybe two people in the store... and you'd inevitably hear that sound play, and whoever played it let out a giggle.
All of my points have been vibes?
They were specific examples.
Lol, you're a fucking dumbass that will refuse to listen to any argument that might actually cast doubt on your fantasy.
It's called cognitive dissonance and makes you no better than a trumplican.
They charge $100 extra to support an unaccompanied minor!!?? JFC.
"A report from Morgan Stanley"
This reads like they are shooting from the hip this just like McKinsey.
Morgan Stanley is an investment company. So this was written for a purpose, with a predetermined outcome.
Capitalism sucks for the same reason Communism sucks. For the same reason Libertarianism would REALLY fucking suck.
Because people fucking suck.
People will always abuse the power they have to keep/accrue more of it.
Look at unions. Absolutely necessary for workers to unite and fight being taken advantage of by the companies who see them as nothing more than a number on a sheet. But then they can become the problem. (Look at the police unions for a perfect example.)
Religion. It was a great tool that helped raise civilization from small tribes. It created ethical mores that cemented the value of the individual. Then the ones that became powerful went on to become institutions of manipulation and control
There needs to be a balance and Communism is not it.
The original commenter is right. This is a stupid meme.
Yeah, especially since it looks like he is still wearing pants. I was like, is that supposed to be his belly button?
