All of my computers had been Intel for many many years and here about a year and a half ago I got my first AMD computer because I had seen other people's machines with AMD processors but I had never owned one for myself and so now I do I have one with an AMD Ryzen 5

I think so, the SE 3. With that said i won't swear to that because I hardly ever look at Apple. I have been an Android user for more than a decade now and so have very little reason to keep up with their products other than they flagship.

Most definitely go back, but some stay, and those who do stay, cause a growth over time. The activity stays somewhat elevated and never goes back to exactly where it was. It's always just a little bit higher.

What about the iphone SE?

Seems a little early doesn't it? I know the iPhone 15 and 16 have a USB type C, but don't they still sell devices that have the lighting port?

Honestly, I don't blame them one bit for wanting to bring data back on shore, where it's theirs to control.

Humanity is doomed because that means that eventually we're going to have Kim Kardashian as president. We might as well evacuate the Titanic while there are still lifeboats around to do so.

Or I think you know, users are going to have to get over themselves because they are currently going from centralized platform to centralized platform to supposedly decentralized platform. Eventually, maybe one day they will figure out that platforms do not work and protocols are what people should be using.

Taxation is theft and the irs along with all world governments need to be desolved

 

So recently I've been seeing the trend where Android OEMs such as Google, Samsung, etc. have been extending their software release times up to like five, six, and seven years after device release. Clearly, phone hardware has gotten to the point where it can support software for that long, and computers have been in that stage for a very long time. From what I can tell, the only OEM that does this currently might be Fairphone.

Edit: The battery is the thing that goes the fastest so manufacturers could just offer new batteries and that would solve a lot of the problem.

 

This right here is just part of why amateur radio is such a necessary vital service.
