I have a Fold 3, had it since launch. The shitty screen protector started to crack in the middle. They offer free one-time replacement at any authorized Samsung repair shop. So far, so good.

Problem is that in order to do the repair, they need my phone's login data and total, un-supervised access to my phone. Fuck you. The reason they need it is to run diagnostic tests on the phone (reading and storing who-knows-what about my device usage). Fuck you again.

They needed all that access to replace shitty plastic (this was only like 1 year into having the device). Now I know what they wanted all that access for. Fucking fucks.

I told them to eat shit, and just peeled it off. A year later, the screen itself started to crack.

Don't buy their shit.

The point of my original post was that their update cadence is slower. The point of my followup reply is that they are not devoid of updates, either.

They have a release every 1-2 years, and it's packed full for various tweeks, improvements, and new features. They fix broken shit, and enhance where it makes sense.

I don't need my window manager to get fad features, and I don't need constant updates. It does what I want it to do already.

xfce ftw.

Indeed. Though that's only my surface level complaint.

On a deeper level; LLMs just fuckin' suck ass. They aren't people, stop assuming they can do things that people can do.

That's the company that made those assassin games

I'll be the first to agree that up/down votes should be replaced with something more functional, but if the current meta is "This is relevant or not" and the OP was unrelated to light/dark mode preferences, then... yeah, downvote. Off topic, doesn't contribute, randomizes the conversation, doesn't belong.

I've actually been thinking about editing my LinkedIn to specificly call out my lack of desire to work with LLMs (which I refuse to call AI, ever). Honestly, I only want to entertain contact from employers who feel the same.

Nice try EA, but you're not getting my golden ideas for free.
