I really, really want to see Jordan Klepper debate with interview Trump and not hold back at all.

Seconded. Seth had to pitch the show to Fox as a sort of live-action family guy and kept it going for the first few episodes, but it quickly sheds that vibe and keeps getting better.

Now would be a good time to start watching Doctor Who (2005) if you haven’t yet 😂

You don’t have to like them, you just keep revising the reason you hate them when it becomes clear your reason is wrong. You’re starting from the conclusion of “I don’t like Apple” and just working backwards. That’s what moving the goalpost is.

Yes. I can, and I do.

Why do you keep moving the goalpost?

Fair, but now that they’re using USB-C that’s a temporary thing.

Also most people don’t need USB 3 speeds on their phones anyway because they don’t really plug them into anything that will take advantage of those speeds.

I realize some people do, and for those people the pro is the answer to that.

It seems like you just keep moving the goalpost to keep having a reason to hate Apple.

iPhones have USB-C now…..

Then just remind them that they have something in common 😂

I already stated as much my guy, they screwed up letting users know what was going on. First in the release notes, second in the press release they put out about it. That’s why Apple was found to have deceived customers and rightfully so.

I’m not arguing that. I’m just stating the intentions behind it have been completely dominated by the media and reader’s reactionary responses to hearing “Apple slowed down your phone”. All I ever said here was that there was a very good reason for doing so, and it wasn’t planned obsolescence.

As for lineageos, it also slows down the CPU as needed when a consumed battery cannot output the necessary power or when the operating temperature exceeds safe limits. Most OSes do that. The ones that don’t cause data corruption.

You seem to misunderstand the issue still. It’s not an OS issue. It’s an issue with a consumable part becoming consumed. Until the update, iPhones just shut off when the OS tried to pull too much power. All Apple did was trade shutoffs (compromising user data) for dynamic CPU throttling (sometimes slower performance but your data is fine). Where they screwed up was in telling the users what they were doing and why.

It doesn’t matter if we’re talking about iOS, Android, a fork, or something else. An OS has battery management capabilities or it doesn’t.

That doesn’t change the fact that Apple should’ve been more transparent, but you’re not avoiding this very common method of resource management because of the type of device you have, unless lineageos can defy the laws of physics and consumable batteries.

I think people just like to pick on Apple. They support old phones for at least 5 years with software and security updates, and sometimes even longer. They’ve even been known to push out the occasional security update for devices nearing a decade old.

That’s not to say they’re a perfectly innocent company. I just think there’s an Apple hate bandwagon people like to jump on. Rather than doing that, I’d like to see people focusing on the specific shitty things they do, and giving them credit for the things they get right.

I mean yeah it’s not as optimized, but that’s not what the claim was. That’s also not exclusively an Apple behavior so I don’t get why we’re singling out one manufacturer here.

Apple doesn’t make anyone buy anything every year. They support older devices longer than most other manufacturers, so I still don’t understand your point.

 

Hi! Hope these posts are ok to make. Math was never my strong suit so I just want to check what I think is a pretty decent degradation rate for my 3 year old EV.

I can’t charge at home and have had to rely on public charging, which until recently was mostly DCFC at ~50 kw. Occasionally (a few times a year), I might do a couple cycles of DCFC at a faster rate while road-tripping.

With that in mind, my math shows my 77kwh battery (82kwh usable) has degraded 1.82% in terms of experience and actual range lost.

The way I figured this was to calculate that my most recent charge from 36-73% delivered a little over 28 kWh, which means a 37% charge is 28kwh.

This makes 10% = ~7.56kwh

7.56 x 10 = ~75.6kwh.

75.6kwh is 98.18% of 77.

While the full rate of degradation is above 8%, the usable degradation is less than 2% over 3 years of almost exclusively DCFC. That’s not too bad, right?
