I'd like my phone to last 5 years minimum.
That seems to be the new standard for continued software support too. If the phone only lasts for half of that, what's the point?
Replacing the battery on a 9a is a invasive 64-step process(ifixit guide). The kit they sell is surprisingly cheap at $40, but has a list of other tools you need. Its definitely not a project most people will undertake.
No, that sounds silly. It must be PNG. You really should enunciate the PNG.
But not 2004, that seems like last week.
You'll be working for Slugworth
Is it pronounced png or png?
I've never had a problem with ads made in this way. My only complaint would be it looks like an actual post. Even though OP is just sharing it, a filterable tag, like we have for nsfw, would be nice.
This form of "passive marketing" (I'm making up terms), I.e a random picture in the feed that you can easily scroll past is fine (assuming its marked appropriately and there are not too many). If the post catches attention enough that people start sharing it because they liked it, the marketer has done a good job. I also consider banner ads "passive". If they actually filter out the scams and malware, and if someone wants to sponsor Rod's Radical Recipes with a banner ad, who cares.
I do take issue with I'll call active marketing. This is an ad you're forced to engage with, like an unmutable gas pumps that's playing audio, a commercial break or a pre-roll add. If I'm getting something for free, then sure an add or two seems reasonable (well, 15 years ago it did), but I'm already paying for the gas, shut the fuck up and let me enjoy my 3 minutes of stress watching the numbers go up without some guy screaming about beef jerky.
Edit: reworded the second paragraph, definitely didn't look at the background too quick and think it was a real poster somewhere and talk about random posters on a wall...nope defiantly not.
And the school who handed them out will suspend kids for having drug paraphernalia.
Sigh another alchemy experiment gone wrong
Neat, they are going back to useful information on the bsod. I hate the current one with the useless QR code.
Although, I foresee the new having errors that when looked up will all say "did you update windows? OK, now reinstall windows. Be sure to do a full reinstall, your data's on one drive so don't worry about it"
Sure its easy cash, but now he is deprived of his fun.
Worst is when they copy the click bait title, so the comments are full of people raging about something like "Lemmy now has a premium cost", without realizing it's bull shit.
