Umm.. no they don't? You need a password to unlock it after restarting it but you absolutely can turn the phone off without a password. I'm on my 3rd Samsung device and have never entered a password to shut any of them off.

Oh man. My old Walgreens had these and I begged the manager at my new store not to let them put them in. They still haven't made their way over yet, maybe the company realized how absolutely idiotic they are.

The only reason they wanted them is because when someone wasn't standing directly in front of them they would play full screen ads for whatever was (supposed to be) inside.

Y'know, that's a fair point. I don't necessarily agree, I'm not that in tune with most websites' designs, but for someone who actively works on them I can see how you might look at things a little differently.

It seems I've made a simple mistake. No reason to come apart at the seams over it.

Are you able to show us an example of what you're talking about? I genuinely cannot picture a situation where this would be remotely as bad as some of y'all are making it out to be, how do you design a website in such a way that very slightly chamfered edges completely ruins the look?

Grab one of those jugs from the garbage, fill it up with water, squeeze it. See where the water comes from, from there maybe you can figure out why it's happening.

I've had a milk jug split on the bottom along one of the "seems" or ridges after slamming it down on the counter a little too excitedly. Maybe you're used to the force-absorbency of a soft bag and transporting/ handling it in a way that's breaking it?

I mean you can like or dislike it of course but are you really complaining about a viewport 20 square pixels smaller than normal

Imagine the headlines. World's richest man files for bankruptcy.

You guys are failing to see that this was a simple misunderstanding.

Musk was told he needed to pay severance to all the ex employees, but he was confused why he was paying severance to "X employees" if they were still employed, so he simply didn't.

It's an easy mistake. Anyone could've done it.
