What does do not disturb not do normally? I have it set to turn off all sounds and vibrations except alarms. What more could you want?

Just use your key

Nevermind the nonsensical charging port, that mouse is a great pick for those looking to suffer from carpal tunnel later in life.

I own a pair of QC35II’s as well, I’ll wear them in everything but the heaviest rain. Completely fine for 4 years now.

Only replaced the earmuffs once, 10 bucks for a 3rd party pair online that’s indistinguishable in terms of quality and actually came with a pretty cool looking coloured inside.

Kidnapping someone isn’t nearly as easy as creating AI porn of them is… Dumb comparison.

Boycotts don’t work and most big companies are just as bad as Nestle. I can’t be arsed to avoid all of them.

If you want them to change the only way is through legislation.

Hover

Pointless unintuitive feature that’s replaced with simple press and hold.

Iris scanner

Slow and unreliable compared to fingerprints. Anyone actually used it?

Air pressure/humidity sensor

Who needs these things? Weather apps work just fine. Rather use the space for battery.

IR blaster

Unless you’re looking to vandalize public tvs, just replace it with any number of wifi/bluetooth remotes.

Just saying there’s a reason features get the axe. Headphone jack is the only one I can sort of agree with, but I still rarely ever need one anymore. Bluetooth is just so much better.

And one thing all this debloating has led towards is larger battery capacity, which most older phones are sorely lacking.

This is pretty much exactly my experience with Minecraft. Always enjoy watching Etho.

I keep trying to replay Minecraft and it just can’t hold my attention for long. I still follow the updates to it closely however. Maybe I should intentionally distance myself from it for a while instead, make it feel fresh again. Same thing applies to Terraria as well.

I can somewhat relate to this, for me it’s with Hollow Knight. While I wouldn’t say I find it boring, I’ve just played through it all and have little interest in replaying. Yet the world and story is so interesting to me that I still love to watch others play and talk about it.

Mastodon is definitely a harder sell than Lemmy due to the nature kf following people rather than subjects.

Problem with top sorts is that you miss out on smaller communities.

There isn’t a singular exercise. Maybe you just need to find the sport that suits you.

Personally I find going to the gym (which I assume to be the exercise you meant) rather unrewarding. I prefer to have some competition. Now I’m addicted to rowing.

Turn on sticky keys?

Yes No

Samsung offers 5 years of support nowadays. The other big manufacturers tend to be lacking in this regard however.

Both Samsung and Apple offer 5+ years of software support nowadays. It seems unreasonable to expect much more IMO. Devices don’t stop working after no longer receiving updates, and there is also the option of jailbreaking/installing custom ROMs for those who really care.

Not sure how removable batteries make a phone more flimsy. The back might pop off when you drop it, sure, but isn’t that preferable to having it crack?

Not to disturb the circus, but with some discipline and mental rewiring it’s not at all impossible to get your dopamine from healthy foods. Exercise is also an excellent source. Fast food might give you effortless happiness quickly, but a healthy lifestyle will be much more beneficial to your well-being in the long run.

I’m sorry but that is grossly untrue. Apple is pretty good at sweeping them under the rug but they’re absolutely no stranger to failed or underwhelming products. Remember AirPower? Or how about Homepod? Ping comes to mind as well. Those certainly didn’t demolish the wireless charger, home assistent or social media industry. Far from it.

Even many more succesful products can hardly be said to have demolished their entire industry. The iPhone might have won over the US, but everywhere else Samsung is king. Windows computers remain far more popular than any Mac. Even Airpods, while very innovative at the time, now have many succesful and often more affordable competitors.

The only spaces I’d say Apple is truly dominant is smart watches and tablets. But even then Garmin makes a better sports watch and 2 in 1 laptops eat into the tablet market.

We just have to wait and see where Vision ends up. In any case, until we can actually experience the device ourselves it is nothing more than a sales pitch.
