Ouch. So... any ideas when AI might be used to lower my medical costs? :-P (/s btw, except a horrifying thought just struck me: how long until someone takes that choice away from me and does it to lower THEIR costs?)

Except then you get the boss' son "making coffee" at daddy's (friend's) company as their "service". The rich will still find a way to game the system.
Which doesn't mean that it's not worth a try!:-)
Dat butt tho...
Sadly I know very little there. I know I HATE my current Samsung (mostly due to the company practices like you mentioned), and I also felt incredibly betrayed by my OnePlus 7T before that (the device itself was amazing, until an update broke it and now it literally hurts my hand, like I wonder if it's giving me cancer by radiating something through the shielding that it burned through), and before that I absolutely adored my Nexus 5 (but Pixels are a whole other thing entirely - far too much camera and too little actual phone for my tastes). The entire smartphone world is incredibly predatory. I mostly figure that the next one I get will be a cheap phone, maybe even a dumb flip... but on the other hand I do live in an area where Google (or whatever) Maps could really help out so... I don't know what I'll do when my current one craps out:-(. Probably I will research a Fairphone, but if you live in an area where that would be difficult to repair, then yeah that may not be an option for you:-(. At least you live within the EU though where such is being forced to change, so you have that going for you.:-)
I bought a Samsung as well. We should both learn from our mistakes, and never do that again - this is simply the cost of doing business with them. Maybe Fairphone would be good?
As I listen to people like the comedian George Carlin, who was talking about it before it happened and yet managed to lay it all out for us in advance, I realize that things were always going to head in this direction, and it was never going to be any different.
Therefore, for the sake of our own sanity, I think we need to let that go: it's never going to happen. The USA might not even survive the decade (imagine Trump winning, but even if he doesn't, is there any doubt that a GQP member will take the one after that? historically speaking, Dems never win successive elections), and if it does then the Dems will just cite how Congress blocked them at every turn, blaming the other side for why even with a majority they won't pass any laws related to e.g. school shootings.
Whatever happened in the past, it's over.
Absolutely, and I think it gets skewed even further by e.g. many TV shows and movies not even showing the presence of minorities at all. It's a collective blanket that gets pulled over people's heads.
But also, certain parts were legit better too (even as other parts were much worse), like there was an extremely brief period where the USA was not in one of the variety of forever wars, and supposedly a minimum wage really was a living wage somehow, at some point? (I'm not sure how many people got paid the *minimum" though, certainly fruit pickers would not be).
^ This - they will reference that it exists, therefore blah blah whatever they want to say after that as if somehow the former had even the slightest relation.
Example: Jesus says "love people, especially those you disagree with". Translation: Civil War time muddafuckers!
You mean create jobs - what kind of nutball idea is that? I won't stand for it - that's not how I want ~~my~~ our tax money to be spent! I will burn this place to the ground before I let that happen.

They know. They simply do not care.
Yet still four heaping plates of food?
And...wait a minute, did she microwave that glass of wine as well?
:-P
