Like all the people who didn’t need an iPhone 16 Pro Max because they already had an iPhone 15 Pro Max? People out there are buying millions dollar properties to stay empty. Sony wouldn’t have even created it unless there was a market for it

Tbh, most people would drop more than the price difference on clothes that they will never wear. Just look at the new car market. Hardly anyone buys the cheap model, so for a couple of hundred bucks, I don’t think anyone really cares about this. If they have the disposable income, they will probably just buy the pro because of the perception that they are buying the best.

For me it was Scomo by a country mile. Abbott had some peculiar views, but he didn’t seem as totally incompetent.

Anything is ok for long term storage as long as you have a backup and you have tested the recovery

David Gilmour - Live in Pompeii

 

I was having this conversation with my daughter and thought it was an interesting topic.

If an EMP or solar flare took out everything electronic in the whole world (permanently), how long do you think it would take for you to die, given your current location and circumstances.

I believe my daughter thinks we would live a lot longer than I do, but she is thinking about how long she can live without the internet while I am thinking the world will quickly descend into anarchy.

With no traditional forms of transport, so supplies would dry up, limited resources, health etc, law and order would be a challenge as things become more desperate.

I think I would live for about 3 months. I would try to get the family somewhere safe and remote and come back later, but I think most people would have the same idea.
