You can’t afford $10/month for something you use many times per day? Are you paying for any streaming services? Those cost way more per daily use.

Plain as day how? The controversy Apple had was throttling processors in phones with aging batteries so they wouldn’t randomly shut down under load. That’s not even close to the same thing as purposely pushing an update you know will basically brick phones. Apple was actually attempting to extend the life of older devices not make them useless. I’m not saying Apple handled it correctly, but this is plain as day not the same thing.

I’ve been running this for my whole family and friends for years at this point. Way better than any browser based solution.

How does this make any sense when buying 2 of the cases is half the price while also faster and easier to swap? It would maybe make sense if it swapped out the actual phone battery. Maybe that’s their end goal, but how does it make sense at all to sell this as a real product?

You can’t make a generalizing statement about how EVs are expensive and then say you were talking about one of most expensive models you can buy…

[–] Rexios@lemm.ee 1 points 6 months ago (2 children)

$100k+ in what currency? The base model of the EV I drive is under $45k

The Apple Watch can easily last over 24 hours if you only use it as a watch and nothing else. The 18 hour estimate Apple provides is if you use all the features throughout the day such as exercise tracking, notifications, quick replying to messages, etc. If anything the 18 hour number is under selling the battery life.

Wasn’t this the word of last year?

If there was a Lemmy account setting to automatically bypass the proxy on failure then it might not require any front end work, but the manual bypass button would definitely need to be implemented in each client

Have you thought about solving this issue in the front end? The client I’m using (Mlem) implemented a feature to directly access the image if the proxy fails. This feature can either be triggered automatically or by pressing a button on the failed image. This allows users the benefit of the proxy while also having the option to give up their IP if they want to see a broken image.
