  • Honestly I had a OnePlus 6T for 4 years and after that started feeling slightly slow and i need it for testing at work, I now have a Pixel 7. Both the 6T and the pixel are great phones. My only regret is my own fault, i want to have a telephoto camera but thought that it’s not worth buying the pixel 7 pro for… There’s many good options out there. But i admit they are harder to find. It’s not “buy iPhone” and be done with it.

    But honestly every Apple device i’ve used in the past made me dislike Apples software more and more. It’s fine as long as you aren’t used to anything else and aren’t a Poweruser i guess. But there’s just so many weird decisions in the software. And it’s all locked down to hell.



  • Okay i’m not sure how much + is in your 1000$ and obviously there’s a manufacturing defect at olay here. But man a MacBook is 2000$+ I have heard this argument too often unfortunately:

    I tried Android once and it was horrible so i just went back to iPhone©™ and now everything is great again.

    Context: they bought a 300$ Samsung phone and expected it to perform the same as their previous 800$ iPhone…

    And this just sounds too similar. “I previously had a 2000$+ device, now I bought a 1000$+ one and it doesn’t perform the same.” Except for the part where it’s also a shitty brand and the device had a manufacturing defect.



  • I have only been driving a Tesla for a few days in 2022, but i fully agree with you, i wanted to specifically test the FSD and i had so many incidents where it tried to get into an appearing turning lane, even tough it should go straight, just straight up slowed to 10kph in a Tunnel where speed limit was 50, and there were blind corners because of “bad vision conditions” even the cruise control was annoying, it felt like my steering input was basically just a “suggestion” that i sometimes really had to force through against the will of the car because otherwise bad shit would’ve happened… Sports mode steering made that only slightly better in the dual motor Model Y

    Overall I enjoyed driving the ID3 more actually… at least that had solid and responsive steering that felt - compared to the Tesla - like driving a sports car… and i’ve driven the ID3 directly after the Tesla.

    Only good thing about the Tesla was acceleration.







  • To be honest, one part is what everyone mentioned here. Not being preinstalled and all that.

    The other part is that unfortunately at least according to my own expirence as a Linux noob a few years ago some Linux communities can be very toxic. If you’re asking questions of how to do X and someone comes along and is all “why do you even want to do X if you could also do Y? Which is something entirely different but also does something vaguely similar”

    That’s one if the things.

    And then other curiosities. I cannot for example for the life of me get my main monitor to work under Linux with any new Kernel version. My Laptop just refuses to output to it or the second monitor attached via Display port daisychaining. On the older version it works, on the newer it’s broken. I have tried troubleshooting this problem for over half a year and it’s still broken. And that’s out of the Box on Ubuntu LTS…

    So i don’t really understand this question. There are major roadblocks. With Wayland which is default for Ubuntu now those roadblock jist became bigger. Screensharing in multiple Apps including slack is outright broken unless you use the shitty webapp. The main player Office 365 largely doesn’t work at all on Linux. All these things that should work for a Desktop operating System don’t work out of the Box as they should.

    That’s why people aren’t using it and companies aren’t preinstalling it.
