This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Here's my take on what phone companies will do next: replaceable batteries are back! With an inkjet twist:
1- You have to buy them precharged
2- You can no longer recharge them
3- The phone will explode if it detects a 3rd party battery
Nothing stops you from importing one
(Lack of) Money does
Jesus Christ
Or maybe they will go the Musk Tesla route:
Phones will come set to let you use 64gb of space and have a battery that lasts almost a day. For a fee of they will let you make use of 256gb and additional 50% battery capacity. There will be fees for enabling software that allows supercharging with special adapters.
Real inkjet twist. You can subscribe to a battery service that sends you a new battery every month for 19.99. If you cancel the plan, your phone is deactivated immediately, even though your phone came with a battery.
EU is coming for non-replacable batteries in 2027 I think
