8hrs on the road and you haven’t left your driveway

The IR blaster lets you use your phone like a universal remote. I can control my TV, my air conditioner, and most importantly, some stores’ unsecured commercial displays with my phone.

It’s a Ulefone Armour 27T Pro but I’d only recommend it if you know how to use adb or uad to remove the bloatware and junk apps that are baked into it, because it comes with a lot of garbage. The hardware is very good but the baked in apps and other stuff are really bad.

Are you asking me out on a breakfast date?

I’m not trying to sell anyone my phone, or be a shill for the company that made it. I’m just saying, if you want a particular feature, or set of features, just search for “smartphone headphones jack programmable key feature feature feature” whatever your needs are, and you’ll find a range of options. Then it’s up to you to vet your results, check reviews, watch some videos, and decide if it’s right for you.

If you choose between iPhone and Samsung, then yeah. There are decent smartphone manufacturers out there that have all these things and more. But if you’re going to choose the duopoly then don’t complain when they do whatever they want. You chose them.

My phone has an IR blaster, headphones jack, toolless dual Sim slot, 4 hardware buttons, one of which is programmable to three different functions (single press, double press, and longpress), waterproof, 10,000mAh battery, reverse charging (I can charge other people’s phones with mine) and a thermal camera. And it cost less than one of the flagship Samsung phones.

If you want a phone with removable battery and a hardware numeric keypad, you can get one of those too. You’ve just got to look further than like, best buy or whatever.

I kinda already had serious psychological harm TBH

In Australia summer is so hot you can get sunburn at night.

Australian pigs: Oinc…unt!

If all it needs to do is basic network fracking and cross-platform polymorphism, it’s reasonable to think that a local AI could propagate on a vulnerable network. It might not be lightning fast, it only needs to be persistent in finding vulns in a local network and exploiting them.

This is sleeping on hard mode, when burglars break in, you have to fight them in naked with slippy socks

You’re saying I need to shoot down a plane to get it’s tasty, tasty charging cables?

Normalise the Prompt to Prod workflow. Just give the AI a vague description of what you want, and your credit card details, and let it publish to prod on the first try.

Oh, I am, don’t worry.

It’s just a joke I guess.
