Reballed memory currently accounts for a small share of smartphone components, but adoption could nearly double by 2027 as manufacturers look for alternatives to increasingly expensive DRAM.
At a certain point, can we agree that we don’t need these overpriced cell phones? How did we get to a point that a grocery store employee needs a smart phone?
I know. I did homework in Tokyo on my Linux phone. The argument was, how did we get to a point where working at a grocery store requires you to purchase a smart phone? When I worked in JcPenny, they gave you those iphone like things. What next? Bring your own cups, plates, cutlery to a restaurant? It’s encouraged to bring your own bag to a store, scan your own items… Should I go empty the truck as well and wash the bathroom?
Well, the said poor person may find these miserable and not know how to make these go faster (or if it’s possible at all), but that’s more of a mainstream software issue. Anyways,

Exhibit D:
The entire world runs on smartphones these days, did you miss that memo?
And yes, you’re right! You can live without them. But that is like running hurdles and saying I won’t jump because the track normally doesn’t require it.
I mean that’s a smart phone. I was referring to being forced to use crapple or doevil phones. At this point everything is running a hurdle and jumping out the window. The most basic things have become overly complicated. It’s like being thankful for the connivence fee to pay your bill.
I never said that, I hate microslop, but that phone was something else.
It’s like imagine going from playing a gameboy to having a gameboy on your phone. It had pretty much all the features a modern phone has but it wasn’t locked down like modern phones are. And it wasn’t hard to put software on. And I was around 15 when I had that phone.
Modern phones are tracking devices. Go jump in to some c-sec stuff and you’ll not be very happy to see the bigger picture.
Oh yeah and I gave you an upvote for engaging in a conversation.

You do realize for many people (in the world), their phone is their only computer/access to the internet?

Yeah, how dare poor people want to e.g. access Youtube or message their friends!

The point is it’s a chain around your neck. Working shouldn’t require to have a google or apple phone…
There’s an example. Fun points? I played a gameboy emulator on it. It would fit in your pocket unlike the tablets of today.
“I can use x, everyone should do that”

Because literally any era of Microsoft is so much better.
