Yeah, but if it’s new, you either put up with the stock firmware, or unlock it right away, giving up the 1 or 2 years of warranty (depending on the region).

The problem with Samsung (last time I checked at least) is that the moment you unlock the bootloader (which is needed to install anything other than stock), there’s a flag raised voiding the warranty. That flag from what I know is acting like a hardware fuse, so it’s pretty much non-reversible. Shame, really, because Samsung do have some really nice things in terms of hardware.

On a serious note, if you can’t look at the diff and make sense of it, you’re doing something wrong.

Yeah, but in this case is the universe just the dots on the surface of the balloon or is it the whole balloon with its entire volume? Intuitively I think it’s the latter (although there’s probably no “hard” edge that’s bounding the ends of the universe like the rubber of the balloon), and if that’s true, you could measure the speed of one wall getting away from the centre or the speed of two opposite walls getting away from each other.

I could be wrong of course, I’d be happy if someone points out what I might be missing.

Hey, wiretap

This brings up the question of experience and how good you’re at what you’re doing - because no matter how enthusiastic you would be (assuming you’re new to this), someone with 20 years of experience will always be better than you - and we’re back at square 1 and putting prices on things.

Watching people struggle with the idea that there are multiple approaches to the same thing is also a great challenge.

The “zero sugar” usually means they replace the sugar with something worse (that’s often also a laxative).

I’m a software developer. For me, “alpha” means somethings that’s still buggy, unfinished and unfit for wide availability.

I regret not buying a new CPU+MB+RAM half a year ago. I told myself that what I have is good enough for another year or two. I wanted to sell just so that it doesn’t become so devalued that it’s not worth it to sell, or so that it doesn’t just fail on me like 3-4 year old hardware sometimes does.

I can afford new things, but I don’t want to support the market in its current state. Just some months ago a 64 gig DDR5 kit used to cost maybe 200 EUR, and for less than 500 I could even get 96; now both are about triple these numbers respectively, so hard pass on this for now. I’m going to spend on things that are still reasonably priced (e.g. I’m in for a new PSU and case).

I’ve got an optical drive mainly because of the audio CDs I buy. Back in the time when games on CD/DVD were a thing, I was too poor to afford one.

Chris Barnes, is that you?
