Another good reason to remove the jack.
More products broken out of warranty, more sales.

Unless you are in India.
Their customer service apparently drove a relative of mine to Apple.

Also some of the cheaper Nokia ones have a great number of problems:

  • SIM card not detected after Restart
  • Some bad sensor causing Google Maps to show you facing the wrong direction.
    Alright, it's just 2, but happens enough to make me regret.

Some high end model had its LCD liquidate somehow, without a visible crack and was not covered in warranty.

Who says you can't have an underground workshop, a gaming setup, a matrix+lemmy+mastodon server, an underground FTTH connection, an escape tunnel with a joyride leading straight to the highway and 100m below all of that, a nuclear power plant.

Ok, maybe someone will say something about the last one, but... You know?

Warning! Normies who can't digest radical ideas, don't click further.I keep the roll on its side (vertical, with circular face down).
Also, I don't use it to wipe my butt. I have a handheld water shower directing device (a.k.a. health faucet) for that.

I have a feeling making it all CAPS would have made it just a bit easier.
That, or using monospace fonts for it everywhere.

How about that.

Not really.
Microsoft won't explain further after "we end support".

They are now the "Something went wrong" people.

I'm pretty sure that's an example of why you should use the chosen ones instead of going "mancy/nancy" all over the place.

Also, didn't they just make a standard for themselves and other just took it because it was probably easier than making one for their own language (oh right, NATO... but let's be honest here, NATO is just a forum for America to flaunt its power while PR-ing peaceful, so it makes sense they use English, which is also easier to be a second language than most other ones).
Though I feel like China might have made their own.

The radio words were chosen to be distinct, such that for people who trained in them, it would be easier to distinguish letters being spoken over low quality radio.

Not very relevant in the era of 2G HD audio, and now VoLTE.
But when there's a bad signal and you have to tell someone a callsign, it makes sense.


I like ISO, because in whatever cases I have interacted with it, it has made programming easier for me.

I like YYYY-MM-DD, because when files lose their metadata, if they are named using this, I can still sort by name and get results by date.

ISO and while we’re at it, the NATO phonetic alphabet for English speakers. “A as in apple B as in boy” means fuck all when you’re grasping for any word that starts with that letter, and if English isn’t your first language fuckin forget about it.

err... didn't get what you're trying to say
