I don't get why higher than 5w is needed. I charge my phone while I sleep. Wireless is super nice.

Unless you're in the US, then you don't get a choice.

You realize that is exactly what starlink and other satellite constellations are designed to do right?

Yeah that whole "flat tire" thing was so blown out of proportion. It looks better than any of the current watches with their huge bezels. I swear someone paid off reviewers to pan Motorola's products. The moto X got a bunch of unfair BS too.

Let's say everyone in the world has a smartphone and charges it 100% every day. Let's say that it's 4000 mah battery so they waste 2000 mah. This is very very generous. That's 7.4 wh per person per day X 8b people X 365 days a year = 2.1x10^13 wh. In 2022 we used 1.7x10^17. Or 0.01% Like I said, statistical dust.

Most teslas i see are still 30-40k and there really aren't any other brands besides compliance cars at that age.

The amount of electricity used to charge phones is statistical dust. If you want to save electricity there are 1000 better places to worry about.

Was it shorter? I know its 1mm wider which is a bummer.

Maybe worse with the removal of the zoom lens, which was already downgraded last year.

This is SMS in the US. No one uses WhatsApp, telegram or matrix. Every iphone user uses imessage and so we are stuck with SMS.

The quality and partner/sponsor issues are mostly expected from getting investor money and expanding quickly. The harassment issues are probably a preexisting problem from existing management. So its interesting that these issues are coming out near the same time.

Expect Linus to be reigned in and no longer be responding directly to these issues. Despite that he didnt sell the company, the people/banks that gave him the money to expand will not be happy to lose their money.
