Endless Mike posted:i am deeply concerned about the kernel version of my telephone operation system this is actually a big dumb problem with android. every iOS update bumps up the kernel on every device to the latest version. android *never updates the kernel* from the version it shipped with, with the exception of added security patches. this means that if new things get implemented that require kernel and driver support, they cannot be supported even in recent devices. android is extremely hampered from getting software improvements due to this.

now the 8 and x has a separate models with intel and qualcomm modem where the intel one is garbage and can't hold onto signals as well as the qualcomm model while being slower and can't do cdma

hobbesmaster posted:does android at least use LTS kernels? I don’t know enough to say. it seems like google chooses a kernel for each major release and supports that with security patches for a couple of years or so. of course that means the vendors have to accept the patches into their hacked up kernels and ship a new build, so it might eventually happen. this means every phone that shipped with ice cream sandwich is still running the ice cream sandwich kernel, even if it has been updated to the latest OS (lol)

OldAlias posted:lol what the hell, that’s terrible. anroid the alternate option is for chip and device makers to make their drivers run on every new Linux kernel. they will never do this because it costs money, they just don’t care, and the Linux driver model is that they get to break every driver every release and gently caress you. Microsoft gave them an example of how to do this and they were too dumb to see it.

i dunno but it better have AUDIOPHILE QUALITY AUDIOredeyes posted:Wha'd be swell would be a phone that worked on Verizon with audiophile quality audio AND a good camera, maybe wide angle. The LG Thinq 7 looks pretty close but it's camera is kinda sad compared to the Pixel 2. It's just never going to happen.

Pinterest Mom posted:Now consider that the portfolios of the iPhone 6, the iPhone 7, and the iPhone 8 have all exhibited major flaws stemming from the hardware design of the smartphones. While past performance is no guide to future stability, consumers are more adept at recognising patterns. The reliability of the Galaxy range in the mainstream media is streets ahead of the iPhone. "streets ahead" is joke from community about trying to force an expression that no one likes or wants

Jeff Anderson, the guy who plays Randal Graves, moved into a retirement community at the ripe old age of 40. He pulled out of filming Clerks 3 to instead do nothing.wikipedia posted:On September 14, 2010, Anderson made his first appearance on Smith's SModcast filling in for Scott Mosier on SModcast #134. In his podcast, Anderson stated he had moved out of Los Angeles and into a "retirement community in the mountains" where he is "the youngest person there by 20 years."

Retiring young sounds rad. Much better than the actors who gently caress up their finances and have to endlessly take lovely roles (or just get addicted to making money.)
