100%

A Republican town hall:

"People are gonna die" shouts a man concerned for the wellbeing of others.

"We are all going to die." The senator says with a derisive scoff.

She then responds to her disdain for living people with this:

They fucking laugh at us openly.

But, the joke is not funny.

Nor is what they deserve.

Another reason why it worka in place of the word death in that phrase.

My only real experience with symbian was waaaaay back when I did tech support for l Sony Ericsson, and while I was more into modding the phones (remember those days?) and playing worms on a 1.5" screen on the walkman line of phones, I did have the p900 and the p1i.

And let me tell you, OS aside, the P1i was indestructible.

One exceptionally intoxicated weekend, the gf and I got into a bit of a tiff.

She grabbed the phone and threw it out the door or the apartment, onto that polished rock type floor.

It impacted as one would expect.

Shattered into a hundred pieces.

But... The screen was the old capacitive touch type, so it was a layer of plastic with a layer of plastic with a layer of plastic with ultra thin wires with a layer of plastic with a layer of glass with a layer of plastic with a layer of metal backing, and the rest of the internals were modular with push in/flip down cable clips that easily separated. The entire body was plastic.

I laughed.

(I'd taken it apart before because mods)

I picked up the parts, put them together as I walked out and turned it back on.

Anyway, symbian.

Oh, the memories.

More succinct headline:

First they built a silicon cube the size of a toaster with a little switch in it that responded to electrical signals.

Now we have billions to trillions of those in our pockets.

Etc.

They were looking forward - to this.

They knew what was right, they knew what people demanded, they knew the consequence of doing nothing.

Tada.!

Sounds like 99% of drivers in Canada after the 1st snowfall of the season.

Every single year they all forget what snow is and they live in Canada.

Lol. No. It isn't .

It's pro Palestine.

But since you mentioned it, Palestine should be returned to the Palestinians. Like before there even was an Israel.

Paging r/polandball

Can you poke Canada with a stick now?

Closing the side loading option is a path to antitrust suits, a slap in the face to privacy, a kick in the teeth to independent devs and personal use.

There is zero reason for this other than wanting full control of how I use my own phone and how much money/data google can squeeze out of everyone.

I did not purchase a phone to have it later be functionally broken as features it had have been stripped in the name of 'security'.

A warning message is all that is needed. The current toggle is enough.

We are not toddlers.

There are not possibly enough cases that it warrants such a restrictive policy aside from the stated reasons above.

Give me liberty or give me symbian.


How's that?

Sell it and give the proceeds to Palestinian families.

That red/white/black color scheme reminds me of something.

I just can't quite heil my führer on it.
