If you kept it long enough... The last update made it unusably slow, was the only phone I ever destroyed and sent for recycling as there was no way I could sell that thing to someone.

Also last Samsung phone I ever bought for that reason. Actually could be the last Samsung anything I nought come to think of it

Like that time a US state subsidised Tesla with a billion dollar factory in exchange for jobs most of which were never delivered. I bet in China at least they would expect their grant deal to be fulfilled.

I'm not trying to advocate for China, just pointing out how much of Tesla's current position is the result of hand outs (see; carbon credits)

I would have interpreted that as 'prolapse'

Good thing no one is expecting me to provide translations

Hey they didn't specify which bit, we can aim much lower

localhost443 ,

Nah its about £13 retail.

Oh wait, you mean from apple... Its £200 from them.

Yeah I was just pointing out the insanity of their pricing, using sarcasm. Its the main way we communicate over here.

The price difference between the first 2 models where 8gb ram is the only change, is £200.
Post 2025 I'm going to need some solution to replace my windows install which solely runs CAD/CAM software. If it wasn't for this scumbaggery I'd buy a Mac to replace win10, but at present apple are such a shower of cunts I think I may have to put up with win11.

What a fucking choice...

I already run Linux for everything else. Its not an option for my CAD work unfortunately

    Also went this way, now stick almost exclusively to indie titles and everything is just better

    This is some weird tribal emotional stuff.

    I run both on the same machine in VMs, had this fedora install since 2019 and kept up with the version upgrades every year. Its just worked without issue during that whole period. I use office in the web app.
    Windows is there to run cad/cam software. It feels more gross with all the candy crush etc that you have to remove, but it works fine to run the software I need it for.

    What's with all the hyperbole above? Did someone hurt you?

    localhost443 , (edited )

    Err OK. I passthrough a card to each, switch with KVM. Its like having 2 native machines. According to you I have loads of issues, I guess I just haven't found them yet?
    What should I be giving in to?

    This is really weird,

    ps, I sometimes game on either system, still can't tell any performance difference from when it was bare metal. I guess I could be super lucky considering all those issues I should be having. Or maybe things aren't quite as dramatic as you've portrayed them

    The host is headless, no video output. The 2 VMs have a GPU passed directly through vfio, so there is no additional delay. Both GPUs connect to the same 2 monitors and USB by a KVM, so its one button press to flip between systems.
    Though I often run the cad software over RDP, as a little extra latency when using that doesn't bother me.

    I still don't get this level of rage. I just have a USB C adapter on the end of my ear buds, problem solved, one less physical port to have to replace as I keep my phones until they're dead dead.

    I guess you could argue you need an extra cable on you to plug direct into a HiFi system, but I cant even remember the last time that was something I'd want to do.

    Aldo in the case of a repairable phone and having replaced the USB on this fp4, I struggle to see where they would have fit an extra daughterboard for a 3.5mm jack to make it repairable
