Third wordist world order cant come soon enough. Though, Android sucks monkey ball, Google is trying to destory it for some reason. Android is like cheap earbud, works but sound not too great and breaks easily. If the wire breaks then in 98 percent of time you gonna throw earbud away. And iPhone is quality IEM, built to last, good sound, if wire breaks wire can just be replaced. Yeah, at least now Duolingo wont lag any more like it did on all my Android phones. Though Im afraid of wat happen if it falls…

got iphone 17 last year. would have preferred mini or SE but it doesn't seem like they'll do those again

my cousin was surprised that i had normal phone since b4 i always had some weird phones

it's good, tho i don't use phone enough for me to need something that wasn't a potato. more aesthetic OS than android, which i put maybe too much weight on

it's embarrassingly expensive, but i'm not allowed to save money, so i have to invent things to spend on basically. it feels macabre since i'm fundamentally not a very consumer person

Yeah, I was thinking on saving and buying an 17e on next year or some thing. 17e sucks all around but it still better than 12 mini. 17 is too expensive… I wanted to buy SE 2022 but it is hard to find someone to sell it. Alas, my mini is in good condition and it is really small… they didnt lie with the name, my Redmi 7A is bigger than this

Yeah, iOS is quite cool, especially system apps. It is far better than Android one, and to be honest, iOS is superior in design to Android. It is just good and thats it, difference is like heaven and earth, so dunno I think iPhone is very good phone but it sucks that it is so expensive… I dunno, maybe more expensive Androids have it better, but all phones I used werent really as good as 12 mini… Seem like China phone is scam

Uh, well, but you see, I repudiate slavery and you revel in it. I repudiate capitalism and you defend it.

are u planning on continuing to work long term ? i thought it was something u would do for few months, give half the money to mum, and then continue studying

well only thing i dislike on ios is some apps having the files embedded in them instead of accessible from file tree. like music app. well dunno wat exactly to say, it would be long review, but i doubt interesting since u have iphone too. but at least i feel less crazy since even u liked it. will u eventually try macos ?

  No. 282510 [PM]

Never had one and never will

Based on what ive heard its not even better. Workmate has one and he has constant problems with video calls and such, brother has one and has issues with signal, like not able to play all videos.

However software problems is not why i wouldnt have one. I just think apple is worse in practice and anything associated with luxury or income should be avoided in general.

All that aside though, phones are very bad and evil in general and i wouldnt want to be invested in them anymore than absolutely necessary, which is why im gonna stop making technical arguments about them (they dont matter)

>>282504
Eh, giving half the money to mum? I negotiated, I can save all, well, I have to buy food for myself though… But yeah, I guess Ill work for long term at least thats the plan. With the job that I have right now I can study resonably so if I begin studying right now then my grades would be ok, maybe. At least thats the plan, I havent yet fully organized, but I do have a plan. This time for real (promise) (how can I save money if I buy expensive toy? Good question, but now I do at least have some money…)

Eh, I think its better than Android though. In iOS there is only document storage or watever it is called, cant mount system storage and it make far more sense… Android file permissions are horrendous abomination, they so bad it is sad… So I would rather prefer iOS one because it is nice actually… and it just works on computer too. Downloaded Jojo and put it to VLC folder and it just work. Dunno… Yeah, iPhone isnt dat bad, no thing crazy. I would get myself a Macbook Neo but they increase prices and now itll be too expensive. So, dunno about this one, maybe not, Ill not be getting new computer unless this one damages irrepairbly
>>282510
Yeah, well, I think iOS doesnt natively support a lot of codecs so there can be problem with dat. VLC plays all video though. It is hardly any better on Android though, so, yeah it is understandable that if you send video from Android to Android itll play but not always Android to iOS or iOS to Android. Dunno about video call though, FaceTime seem not to work in Russia but other wise I havent had big problem with it

Eh, you arent wrong but… I dunno, you are very contrarian, so youll be opposing out of principle, but wat I can say is dat iPhone is indeed a luxury but it is also good. Would something that is not luxurious not good? Perhaps there can be such cases, but I dunno. Luxury in itself is not so bad, it only bad if it is exclusivity is all that distinquishes it, like luxury watches is all just exclusivity and artificial scarcity. I hate all luxury though, even if I can see good thing in it(like durability), but even then I can see that iPhone that I have is very good phone… So, I dunno, perhaps iPhone is status symbol, but I think it is nice if you can have it and it sucks that it costs way too much…

Ok, I respect that. Maybe phone is evil… Or maybe not, I dont believe dat, I think phone is kinda okay. So, cant agree here I guess

Your words are meaningless because your actions speak against them. Third worlders don't believe in anything because the minute they get money they immediately fold over and get the most capitalistic unrepairable goygoods.

>Yeah, iOS is quite cool, especially system apps. It is far better than Android one, and to be honest, iOS is superior in design to Android. It is just good and thats it, difference is like heaven and earth,

There you go, flapping your gums again, saying meaningless words. You yourself do know you can change all the system apps on android. You are just trying to justify your expenses.

>So, I dunno Chief, maybe me buying second hand iPhone is not really increasing shareholder value but you defending capitalism as whole surely does.

There is this saying if communist knew anything about economics, they wouldn't be communists.
You, as a second hand buyer are a very important part of the market, you ensure the first buyer feels comfortable making the larger initial purchase which in turn DOES increase shareholder value

well i would so i would feel less bad when i was neet studying while living w/ mum. but if ur able to study even on same days u work then yeh not bad idea to work. can then consider it as minimal exercise and socialisation needed by body. so it's not really even time wasted. i thought about getting simple job for same reason but it's pretty much impossible in switzerland because there's so many applicants

well tried the vlc app again now and it puts wide aspect ratio vids behind the notch/island. extremely irritating. so can't watch movies but tv shows yeh
>but they increase prices
yeh dunno about any new phone or laptop in next few years. or if some speculations are true, ever again. and like elon mask says u'll just have display, w/o OS or anything, where 'ai' streams wat u want to see

There is no such thing as simple job. If job simple then there must be too much responsibility and it sucks way worse than working at factory (which is good position to be in). So, dunno, just find a job and see how it goes if you want. I have chill job though, sometimes I can study even on job, but mostly I read books, now watch anime and learn languages. Yeah, well, if you arent socialable or dont want to be there is no thing to be done about this though… which isnt so bad, just dont become Hitler I guess

You can press the button to change the aspect ratio though. My video all play normally… but dunno, I havent watch wide format video yet but I think you can still enable a switch here and there

You like this Ilon Mask fella but I think he has very bad influence on you. I think he lie, well, he would lie because he is miserable human. So, dunno, I dont believe in AI or in its wonders, it gonna suck just like everything sucks and maybe it isnt so bad. Now even idiot could go on Google and ask Gemini how to do any thing.

I do think principles matter more than some weird reasons, like a button is more shiny or it takes 100ms less to load

I can kinda empathise for people using android or windows pc or whatever, because its normal person choice and they dont know better. Im realist so im not expecting them to suddenly start gnumaxxing and use pagers instead of phones.

that said i view apple products worse, because using such is a conscious decision against customer rights and privacy. Its essentially like taking a extra steps to make the situation worse.

Its also not some technological marvel either, but as you mentioned previously mostly just status symbol. You can take some specific bits from there and there and try to built argument on that, but i feel like that just trying to justify something else than an actual reason, its not really honest, not for the most people.

However when you make this argument to usual leftist they dont even want to hear it. That marxist guy, yanis something, he also noted this. He said its always the left supporting the worst corporations, they throw all their views in trash bin for convience and latest shiny thing.

no i can't get those either. my point just was that even low level stuff like mcdonalds or supermarket or cleaning is hard to get here. i will have to go to school, or then german speaking switzerland and ask for job from relatives (they have some factories etc), tho for that i should learn german…

u can but then it's wrong aspect ratio. well not that i watch much anything on phone so just have to only watch aninme

it's just extrapolated from current bubble. like, we don't know when it ends, but if it keeps this up for a decade, end result is that there's no more consumer computers or smartphones really since all teh compute is gobbled up for ai

Wat are those principles though? I mean, I want to use Postmarket but it is busted beyond repair and lightyears need to pass before it can be useful at all. Thats wat I want to use, thats wat I want to support and thats for wat I would make mobile app. Yet, it sucks, you never ever thought of using it. And now when weird think happen with Android I dunno wat principles are there in space which is openly hostile to any thing geniunely good. Like, okay, princple matter thats true, but I can see with my both two eye wat is good and wat isnt so good. I dont like constant lag dat is unexplainable, poor driver, poor support, junk devices, busted GPU drivers, unreasonably poor performing hardware. Google Tensor is so bad it is pathetic, it uses IMG GPU for which no one competent yet written a Vulkan driver. Is this really so good? Wat are the principles if all of this suck so much it just negates any and all principle there could be, making it insignificant and pointless squabble. In the end all we arguing about which commodity makes us feel better and I think it is clear which. iPhone makes me feel better, but that is only because I bought it from second hand

I mean, Google is no better at privacy. Dunno, do Android phones really so easy to repair or is it that we should have right to repair any device?

Apple's hardware is coherent in the way Android never could. It is better at hardware simply because it is harmonious. It is a status symbol but not just that. I can ship app with compiled shaders for every model and expect them to work, on Android Vulkan is poorly implemented and you cant target for things like dat. iPhone's UI performance is far superior to Android, and overall, it is a much better engineered piece of software period. It is quite easy to "justify" because it is plainly obvious that if all you have are handful of devices that all run very similar system, very coherent hardware that is performant, it gonna be just good all round. Yeah, it is not a marvel, but is just good

Like, come on. We all exist in a society. Can you imagine being so inflexible that you only eat grass for breakfast, that you are afraid to raise your voice even a decibel to not disturb air? Yeah, I guess you could use your rhetoric like dat but you could replace leftist with rightist and no thing changes. So wat? Yeah, leftist like having a Che Guevara shirt, but wat do you expect if thats the system we live under? All the people who rebelled and wanted something better either killed or exist in limbo. Now wat. Wat is your argument, or all you could say that leftist like shiny thing and live in billion dollar house, ignoring 99 percent of all other leftist which never could live like dat. I say, let leftist have iPhone. Why not have nice thing? Because rightist no like it? It make no sense, if wat I say is some leftist hypocrisy then, well, then wat? I must somehow make my views more coherent and propagandize Comintern party line and scientific communism? I should just eat grass for breakfast and be afraid of disturbing the air even for one decibel? Lets live like dat and see how fast will we start eating each other alive

Well, just study then I guess, you have money flowing right now so it isnt so bad. But yeah, if you want work, well just find some work and stick with it. All work suck, it is very hard to find good work, so I dunno

Yeah, those AI guy really increase price for all… Thats very dumb of them. But I guess I dunno. I imagine you being in cult of space so I guess you just really like progress… Or at least fascinated by it. I dont think phone really gonna become some AI terminal. And to be honest, perhaps if it were, it could be good. Liberating us from friction isnt so bad. Wats bad is total control of it in hands of people like Ilon Mask, champion of pure stupidity

the reason why i dont use phone with Postmarket OS or such is because i havent sligtest idea about it and im not interested in phones to figure it out. Also would it really matter, since im required by job to use all these google apps and authenticators and what not. Can you even install those on device like that? So for my case its not really even about choices or anything. The principle though is to minimize use of services by bad corporations. Apple is opposite of that, its very much closed ecosystem and ethically even worse than google and on top of that they probably share all your data to google anyway (apple has big deals with google, the phones use google search by default and now they are integrating gemini to it, because apple fails to make their own AI) Your arguments about bad performance are also simply not true. i dont have great phone, its pixel 9a, never have i had any lag with it, its android 16 (i think).

im not gonna even speak about the hardware or chip bs, because it simply is not real as it doesnt manifest in anyway in normal phone use. phones are phones, and you shouldnt even create these fake expectations for yourself that are needed to be satisfied. Also im not gonna take any proprietary software argument seriously, if its proprietary the argument already cant be proven.

i dont think existing in society is excuse for making worse ethical choices than majority. in fact its pretty bad. anyway, this is starting to already sound too judgemental, so whatever. its just how i view it and i need to express it, because its hard for me to take anti big corporation or anti-capitalist arguments seriously if you willingly support them, its more understandable if your hands are tied or you are unaware for whatever actual reason.

You can install all Google app on Postmarket with Waydroid, but your mileage may vary. If you are curious, you can find an Oneplus 6 or watever on Postmarket wiki community supported devices and see for your self. It is not usable unless you have GPU supported by Mesa and it has Vulkan driver. Otherwise youll get either performant Plasma Mobile that is borderline unusable at times or Phosh which is usable and neat but has random performance dependent on GPU for driver reasons

Dunno. You are forced to use Google service for work. Im forced to use Russian app for work and it happen like dat. How is Google any open than Apple is big question, it certainly isnt, but people liked Android because at least it felt like it was open. It wasnt fully, as phone manufactures provided broken kernel packages more often than not. So, I dunno, I dont see your argument that Apple is some very exeptional case, it really isnt. Wat is exceptional is some Android phones which could be used in a free way. Dat doesnt represent all other 98% of devices on market which are junk phone which has support for 2 year and after dat receives no update wat so ever, not even security update except Google Play one

Well, Pixel 9a is not Redmi 7a. It is some wat performant even though Tensor is horrible. I mean, yeah, you can have dat. I never had that, perhaps it is good phone, but for the money that I got Im happy with iPhone. Maybe Ill get Pixel some day and then compare, but I dont think it gonna be any better, perhaps even latest Tensor CPU (and probably GPU too) is slower than 2020 A14 in 12 mini

Dunno. Phones are phones. But all my phone lag. iPhone little lag(almost none). How you gonna deny my phenomenological reality is unclear… I dunno why you persist with properietary software if your phone runs kernel with blobs and probably unfree Android, but okay… My point stand, 2020 iPhone is better than latest Pixel and there is no thing you can do to prove other wise, not because Im obstinate, but because it is true

Ethical decision? Do you eat meat? Wat is it all about? Certainly not about ethics or morale. Im puzzled. You say, it is hard to take me seriously, well, Im fine with dat. Wat can I say, I cant be so unflexible as I wont enjoy nice thing. I have principle, but I could change my opinion also. Other wise, it would be pretty dumb of me… So? I can be anticapitalist, anti big corporation, and like iPhone. Wat are we living in, Victorian England? You might say, hey, this doesnt sound so good of you "leftist" guy but listen, those argument are tiring. You say dat society is not excuse to make worse ethical choices than majority. Majority make same choices as I do and I dont understand how did I suddenly become more unethical than them in choices. You are being very unfair to me, and you know, I respect your rhetoric. But thats nothing… All I can say is that yeah, Im human… I cant be other wise. You gonna judge me for being human? I respect dat. But why then you use bogus ethical argument that it seem you yourself couldnt uphold? I dunno, but I respect you for it, thats all I know, if you cant take me seriously because I like iPhone so be it, thats cool and watever, I like having opinion…

perhaps i could, but it would be kinda pointless given the use case

i mean we could go case by case every anti-consumer thing that apple did, like use custom chargers, make system software update to make phone artificially worse, so that people would buy newer one, making overpriced products, weird marketing about chat bubble colors, weird censorship and the list goes on. its clearly more anti-consumer and anti-consumer rights. that said i dont want you to think i support google. google is evil in its own right.

your argument that why are there some trash android phones is not very good either, of course there are as they allow any manufacturer to make whatever shitphone and put the OS on it.

maybe that tensor is bad, idk, its hard to say since its only bad on paper. i wouldnt know what u need to do with phone to see that. for me it works just fine. if i think about issues ive ever had with phone, theyve always had to do with custom android version.

again, my point wasnt to defend android on this. what i meant is that i refuse to argue about one propietary software against another proprietary. its pointless. there are some exceptions, like games and such. i dont care that much about that, since they are just entertainment.

okay maybe i was too hard there, i mean you clearly care about the new phone, so i dont want to be debbie downer no more. the argument isnt going anywhere anyhow. im just saying that i wouldnt use apple product for ethical reasons.

Pointless? I dont understand then why are you clinging to the ethical argument at all

Sure. Perhaps, it all happen. Now in EU you can even install other app store on iPhone. There is now USB C charger. Yes, Apple made update which throttles the battery if it is in bad condition, you could also disable dat at any time. Yes, there is censorship. There are clear anti consumer things dat Apple clearly done. Yet it can be forced to comply with law and stuff. Their phones are overpriced indeed, even though they are good. All happen. Do I need defend Apple for for all that to enjoy iPhone? No. Is Apple uniquely evil? No. Wat is the purpose of all of this?

Yes, but there is simply no trash iPhone isnt there. I mean, thats just how it is, take iPhone and it has cool thing in it. In Android, there are only few good phone. Maybe it isnt good, but just because any one can make China phone is not excuse to make junk phone at all. But we are powerless to stop it, so, well, now wat?

Pixels are cool but their problem is Google's incompetence in hardware. Pixels have very strong software, no question, but Tensor is hilariously weak and using IMG is a fatal mistake that no one in right mind would make. Newer Pixels can be reflashed and locked with AVB presserved, and it is far better than any other Android period. Pixels have strong support for the hypervisor and virtual machines that it is uses for their Terminal. In security, too, newer Pixels have ARM 8 extensions features like memory tagging and stuff and geniunely it is one of the few phones in principle that is very secure fundamentally and is open to be expiremented on. In short, it is quite good phone, in fact it is very good phone, but dat aint besides the point that Im making. My point is, even Pixels, phones that are geniunely good, have for some reason hardware that is strangely underperformant than a 2020 12 mini. Like, why is dat? And answer is simple, iPhone is luxury, being better in long run is all the point of luxury and thing is tested by time. And that is really I want to say, I think iPhone is good phone for this reason that in this moment it does not suck and that is very cool

So, I dunno. Sure you can make all those proprietary software and ethical argument. But it ring hollow to wat I wanted to say. And I say, I enjoy iPhone because it good. Thats really all, and I dont think you can argue against dat really. You use proprietary argument, now you say you oppose all proprietary and yet use proprietary phone and refuse consider available alternative that is libre. You use ethical reasons for saying why you wouldnt use Apple product and I respect you for dat. It is cool. I just dont understand how is Apple any more special than any other random phone maker, yes, you could say dat you already made list. I read dat list. It had no thing about hardware on it. All politic. And I respect that. However all I wanted to note is that iPhone I have is just nice phone despite all, it performant than all my other phone, and it renders Duolingo without stutter which for me is big achievment… Overall, Apple and Android can be judged by Duolingo, on Android Duolingo is half disfunctional and not of really good quality(due to huge diversity of Android phones and unable to target for coherent hardware) and on iOS it is premium and just nice to use. Heaven and earth, that all I say

come on now, you keep circling back to points i already covered. either you dont understand my position or you misrepresent it on purpose. you can make million arguments about hardware but it doesnt matter. hardware for what? opening some react apps that display text and basic files? i dont think thats interesting. i wont forgive apple its crimes against people, no matter if EU forces them to make everything right or if they have best hardware on market. also you didnt understand my point about propietary at all. also there is no such thing as libre phone. as soon as i have to emulate all android app that im required to use its no longer libre, so its a fantasy. phones are simply bad. android is bad and google is bad, but worst of them all is apple.
