To add to your comment, ceramic window tint is a night and day difference. My steering wheel, shifter, and all couldn’t be touched after work. I wore driving gloves to get home. With the tint there slightly warm and the AC doesn’t take half the drive to catch up, the car is cool by the first stop light.

Maybe they should sell cars with that by default instead?

SaaS occasionally makes sense but I’m overall against it. Hardware SaaS has been dumb as fuck since AMD tried to charge us extra to unlock cores we already had on the chip and like 6 seconds until we fished out how to get around it.

As a Lemmy and Duck Duck Go user, this is a desired feature!

This all sounds smart to me. I’ll vote for it given the chance.

My daughter has been trying to get me to install this for years. My refusal has been vindicated! I kept telling her I don’t trust it. And she drives like me and her premiums are nuts even for her age and she’s been lucky and has a great driving record.

Denver Metro is on par with the cost of living of San Diego Metro. Lots of people agreed with you already and moved here.

Yeah I wonder as well. My wife would rather have that but there are no choices like that anymore. What we used to consider ridiculously huge, because tablets started at 7" became the norm. To think my phone is almost the size of an entry level tablet not that long ago is wild.

Yup!

Yeah just the protector, Samsung says not to replace it yourself but have a professional do it and since we have the warranty we just can T-Mobile. We keep expecting them to send us to a store to have an employee fix it but they just keep replacing the phone instead. So weird.

Based on this article consumers overall agree with you. I’m not a fan. But my wife has a real good reason. Pockets in women’s clothes suck as they are tiny or non existent and modern smart phones even the small ones never fit. But her phone when folded does.

I imagine we’ll go through this dance of yearly replacements until T-Mobile gets sick of it 😂

Maybe, probably some trick in the way it gets opened. Or maybe that we live in an arid climate?

To add to this my wife got the Samsung Flip or whatever, the one that folds like an old flip phone.

Every year she’s had to have it replaced because the screen cracks in the middle. Fortunately we have the insurance so it’s only $5 to replace it. She just got her third phone this week.

I upgraded from a 3080 to a 4090.

My son needed an upgrade and it was easier to justify giving him the 3080 and chalking up the difference as his Christmas gift last year than to buy a GPU for him outright.
