Just this month I finally moved off my 2017 flagship… Only because my cell provider stopped supporting it (for no fucking reason).
I was running the latest version of Lineage too. Thing was great. It did need a battery (which I may still replace for about $7).
And like you said, sometimes you need to replace a phone.
Maybe it was lost, or destroyed.

Can you just flip it over and leave it upside down? Cause I certainly would.
Look at it this way, $30 per machine is a helluva lot cheaper than mitigating whatever 11 will break.
Not to say don’t update, but Enterprise works on this stuff in advance, testing their systems with the newest versions as their Betas are released, to develop their mitigation strategies (including staged deployments).
Even there, $30 is cheap insurance if they need a little extra time to address issues.
For the home user, fuck that. Just ensure your security model includes layers, e.g. Don’t run as admin, isolate systems that are at risk, etc.
Hell, at home I run different VLANS for my own stuff (cause I do risky things), one for TV (because those things are terrible about security), another one for everyone else, and a guest network.
The contacts were surprisingly robust. Mine just died, sadly.
New ones are crappy knockoffs, but they’re cheap enough.
LaCie IAmAKey. No longer made. Current ones are made from aluminum and bend easily. Originals were stainless and rigid.
My 2006 one just died, and I’m so frustrated with the new ones. Fortunately they’re pretty cheap, so who cares.
Here here!
Best mouse I’ve ever had. Lasted 10+ years. Just can’t justify $100 for a new one
I was just thinking about this a little earlier.
People simply can’t be bothered to learn how systems work (any kind, technical, financial, political), then bitch when it doesn’t work the way they want or think it should.
I’m as guilty as anyone (especially finance). At least I try to not bitch about it too much, and work at keeping away from more complex stuff that I just don’t understand well enough.
Thanks for the summary, it adds great clarity to seeing how it could happen
Are you going to pay for retraining 30,000 employees?
Or to make all your software work on Linux?
Autocad?
Hahaha, right,right.
Making something usable by more people is “severely inconveniencing” someone. 🤦♂️
The UI shitshow today is unbelievable. Low contrast being the “cool” thing. I have great Vision and find it frustrating - I can only imagine what it’s like for people with vision issues.
Phones in 1998/99 had BT, well before smart phones.
Thanks, it’s been a while.
Your fine with people violating your trust? Because that’s what you’re advocating.
If people are going to show they’re willing to scam the company and steal from it, why would you keep them around.
Sorry, I would have a zero tolerance policy on theft. I’ve seen it first hand in a small business and in a massive retailer, not cool.
It’s for food.
It’s the rules for receiving the funds. Don’t like it, don’t accept the funds.
Sorry, trying to scam your employer isn’t smart. Food vouchers, not couch vouchers.
Take a look at some stats sometime, nothing comes even close to nuclear safety by KWH produced.
There’s far more involved in solar than just solar panels.
Are you me? The only difference is I just switched to a Pixel 5. My 2006 car should run for many more years, 10 at least.
