I just had a purple line appear on my pixel 8, google offered me $490 on trade for a 9. The line is intermittent so I just rated my phone as good condition for the trade in. There is an extended warranty on the problem so if they try and give me any shit about it I'll just reference that. If you do trade it in, make sure to uncheck the box that says you'll accept less on the trade if they decide the condition isn't as described. I have no actual evidence, but given my fairly extensive history dealing with googles customer service I think they may try and screw you over on the trade.

Yup, I say it in every thread of this sort I see pop up, you definitionally can't force organic engagement.

There's probably a microsoft engineer out there somewhere sitting in a cubical who has the solution already written and tested and they just can't figure out how to send it to their boss. They've tried outlook, teams, github, skype, and even one drive but they're all so broken that it may just be faster to print the code out and mail it.

I think it'd be more for obfuscation than completely hiding it. As long as there are other hidden networks on the ship you just name it something generic that blends in. I mean this whole thing is a really stupid idea, but naming it something like "COM.NAB_ISO:4133" would draw less attention.

No it's not, because conservatives don't think micro plastics are a problem. Pretty soon there will be truck bros making tiktoks competing to see how quickly they can destroy a set of tires just to "trigger the libs".

No... it means they're confident enough to assume the risk, Tesla is not. They've been using their tech in europe for a while now without issue, Teslas meanwhile still love to hit a variety of new and exciting objects.

In short, this is one of those questions where if you have to ask the answer is no. It may be possible but unless you have a spare TV laying around that you don't mind breaking it's not a good idea to try. The best advice I have for any modder is to have multiples of whatever you're modifying on hand.

I remember when they switched from 30 pin to lightning when I was in highschool. It was the best time to be a little shit, whenever someone asked if you had an iphone charger you could ask what kind they need and then say you have neither.

I actually looked into this back when it was originally happening and the rules were fairly strict. It specified background color and wording but it didn't give a language so this guy did about the best you could given the rules.

However it would be a shame if someone printed a poster with UV reactive paint that changed to something else over time while it hangs.

B&H Photo Video is a decent place but stock is always iffy. More of a consumer electronics store than newegg in my experience.

Trump has all of Bidens issues AND he's a fascist idiot. Trying to say he's in any way better than Biden just shows either how uninformed you are in American politics, or you think people like Trump are attractive candidates. If it's the latter you may want to take a look at the type of people who, in your own words, are making your country a "political shithole".

I didn't mind the fact that it was there, I was always just annoyed at how useless the memory hints were. Like yeah, of course I could spell "neither" if I just remember the e comes before the i... that's the problem.

It's like saying "if you want to be rich just get more money" or "NASCAR is easy cuz it's all left turns"
