The battery is the most expensive part of the phone
Lol no it's not? This is easy to disprove just by looking at the price of replacement parts. You can't tell me that the battery is more expensive than the processor of the phone.

This is like closing a shop to prevent robbers.
Surely the solution is to make the grid they charge off of sustainable then????
Ya see that one where someone's landlord went loopy and cut power to their building because he'd consumed a bunch of conspiracy nut stuff?
A useless comment by a useless person who's never touched code in their life.
Similar experience from a European.
I own a 2015 Vauxhall Adam. It's a brilliant little petrol car, 3 doors, very small and very reliable.
GM canned the model in 2019. It makes no sense to me, if they had stuck a battery in it for an electric version I'd have been sold in a heartbeat.
But no, GM wants to focus on big cars that I don't want. I don't want anything bigger than a 3 door hatchback, I'm only 20 and have no kids, why do I need some massive fuckoff SUV????
I feel a way to combat suburban hellholes is to at least make it more cycle-friendly in those areas. Big stroads kill any chance of people being able to cycle to stores, I feel a lot of people don't want to have to drive to get to a Walmart, especially in hot months and would probably prefer to bike it instead. There's obviously also the health benefits of people cycling too. For those more lazy individuals, e-bikes and e-scooters are a good idea that can help them rely less on their car too, and are far cheaper to run than a full car.
Eliminating huge sprawling suburbs is a monumental task, but we can at least apply patch fixes for some things at the moment.
It's surprisingly good at making nonsense
I can see why Google doesn't allow swapping out specific "core" apps such as settings. Giving a foreign app access to your system settings sounds ripe for abuse, which is why a lot of permissions are focused on changing them.
You do realise data miners have been ripping WhatsApp to pieces to find traces of a back door for years right?
Nothing has ever come up.
I hate Meta as much as the next person, but when they say the messages are end to end encrypted they do mean it. Otherwise the backdoor would've certainly been found by now. Signal, iMessage and Telegram are the same.
Sure this isn't true for anything like Twitter DMs but for the ones that are end to end encrypted nobody has found a backdoor.
