The S22 US version used snapdragon 8 gen 1 (in the US) and the chip was prone to performance issues. It worked, but it was rough, ran hot, and ate power for lunch. I’m not sure if that was a year that the international variants had an Exynos, but their performance is generally worse.
So seeing a simpler phone with basic android seem to do fine versus a flagship with super bloated Android on a first gen apps processor makes a lot of sense, really.
Up to $210 if uninsured.
Nice to see California catching up to Colorado.
I’m not pro-China, but will probably sound that way here. We are all nation-states composed of arbitrary rules. We all think we are the best. We all think the others are less. We all do shitty things to our people. We also need each other to survive. It’s a clusterfuck that needs a fix. Xenophobia is never the answer.
One cannot really use a universal fact shared between the two nations as a plot point.
Oh, yeah, the US Federal Government would neeevvverrr put backdoors into things. Not ever. Not BlackBerry, or iPhone, or messaging apps, or anything…
…oh, wait.
Duh, it’s so simple. The lab released infected animals to the wet market. All bases covered.
I’ll take my research grant now.
(This is all said non-serious to be clear.)
Is that the latest bear name Russia is using? They’re not very clever in their naming of their shit orgs and furry obsessed with bears.
I asked ChatGPT if it knew of that, and even with it’s heavy microsoft influence it was confused.
Have you met Google?
Those are both mental health issues, as well as the latter being failure of the medical system to limit access. (As well as the unrelated easy access to firearms issue.)
Mental healthcare in the US is terrible by itself, and is under the healthcare umbrella.
…you know what they say about guys with big lift…
Funny thing is, the people I know with large vehicles around here always bemoan how difficult it is to park, yet don’t want to solve the obvious problem because twice a year they want to haul a fridge to the dump or pick up something from the home improvement store rather than have it delivered or rent a truck for an hour.
…and the text messages, and the canvassers, and the snail mails, and the billboards (if you live where they are allowed), and and and.
Wish it would all just go away, I’ll vote how I want despite all the waste of media.
Politicians should get some sanctioned debates and interviews on CSPAN and that’s it.
I have a set of uBlock Origin filters I turn on in the “my filters” tab when this garbage gets too exhausting.

Surveillance images released by police showed one suspect dressed fully in pink - including a shower cap.
Funny that BBC describes the images but doesn’t bother putting them in the article. Did they receive this news via paper telegram, dictated but not read?
Gravitational interactions between Earth, Moon, Sun leading to the orbit never really being stable, probably. The asteroid decided Earth orbit wasn’t its’ forever home.
Doctors are erring on the side of caution to avoid potential lawsuits and even jail time
I get it’s risky and money is needed to survive, and prison is bad, and all, but it seems a bit hypocritical for doctors to violate their modern day version of the Hippocratic Oath.
Especially the part where it says:
I will prevent disease whenever I can, for prevention is preferable to cure.
That’s a place where life-saving decisions should always transcend law, and there should be a law (since we can’t go on gentleman’s agreements anymore) that says as much to cut out this partisan horse shit that vacillates and trends downward every year.
Can’t believe it’s 2024 and our big accomplishment is that America figured out how to politicize the human body, and the uterus in particular.
It’s Florida, dude was just bird hunting. /s
The shit of it is, the paramedics listened to the cops who demanded they inject him. They should have not been put in that situation. Cops shouldn’t have any power over paramedics. The cops should have been charged and sentenced.
Unfortunately, cops are the LARPers with guns, so until the false air of power goes away, it will always be an unbalanced situation.
This whole series of court cases was garbage and did nothing to add faith that the “system” may some day be fixed.
Nah, more of a challenge. California normally leads the way with things that are good. Competition towards good things is good.
