Nobody said you must get rid of wired charging.
Over four years I’ve broken three or four cables. Every time it’s because the phone moved while plugged in. Whether it’s my error (forgetting it’s plugged in) or the cat knocking the phone down, nothing breaks when the phone falls down from the wireless charger
It doesn’t have plugging and unplugging cycles and doesn’t get bent in different directions, so it will basically never break unless you use the phone while holding the charging pad
You keep on connecting and reconnecting the USB-C cable, and if you use it while charging you probably bend it.
The cable in the charging pad never gets unplugged
Your phone doesn’t have that much energy stored in it. 5 watt hours or so? Now consider the energy cost of making usb-c cords
It’s literally a few watt hours. Not kilowatt hours, watt hours. I pay $0.08 per kwh, so after a few years of wireless charging I might pay $1 more
But the USB-C cord might break in less than that time and cost more. Manufacturing cords is never going to be green, but electricity can be made renewable
There are artificial colors that are not known to be harmful, so would that also mean they are without chemicals?
Now play 1080p content on it to compare
I had a 6" 720p phone. Couldn’t tell the resolution, but could definitely tell the longer battery life
I cannot tell 4K because my TV is 50’’ and I sit three meters away
This why we need to switch to Matrix, to empower users to publish any malware they want
I remember you were able to crash someone’s PC by sending them a link to a webpage. This is what security updates prevent and there were even worse ones
Is that after or before it has to tell you it may cause cancer?
I got a pixel for GrapheneOS
It becomes an integrity check arms race. Graphene OS devs not keen on this idea, but they may not have a choice in the near future
Not true, vanguard sends me vote notifications. Basically, vanguard will vote on the board the way the vanguard shareholders do
They already diverge by having a network permission and a bunch of other differences, and not being allowed to use Google Pay because of those differences
I still logged in to Facebook on the number pad back in the day. If you told me I had to use a touchscreen I’d say I’d rather get a bigger physical keyboard because I need to feel what I’m typing and to see the whole site I’m typing in
You said
Imagine a calculator that reported “1+1=3”. It seems silly to use such a machine to do long division.
Every single person alive has made silly addition mistakes. Is it silly to trust those people with long division?
But you didn’t say that. You said you can’t trust something that makes basic mistakes. Humans make them all the time. You can’t trust any human?
If you yank a magnetic stick on charger it just disconnects. If you yank a wired cord it can break it.
I never said you must stop using wired charging. If you’re using it while charging and it works for you, you can continue to do that.
