Used to be beep hoop beeep bop skipped right to where you want to be. Now you have to stop at every menu before choosing another option.

Jelly posted:I have never been to a grocery store where they give a gently caress about me in my entire life, where do you live I have lived in both huge cities and rural bumfuck, and will confirm that in rural stores, even huge chains like walmart, it's fairly common for the staff at checkout to make earnest smalltalk, and even recognize/remember me and ask about things that we talked about last time. Only ever had this happen in the city when I was working late and would always shop at 2am, so the overnight staff got to know who I was because I was one of like ten people they saw.

Okay, I'm not terrified but it's more like "I'll have to strip out a bunch of garbage and apps to hopefully get it working smoothly for business stuff." And then do the same for my folks. Also, I'm over 30 (40?) and it's all weird and scary!

When you start with a Nokia from Voicestream to now it's been quite a change. I'll probably go with another Android, my old phone's like 2G and at least 11 or 12 years old.

Yeah, I hate searching for, say, United airlines ticket and it turning every email with United center in the body, every other airline email too, etc. You have to wrap your search term in quotes for exact marches.

Cerekk posted:also gently caress the poor Here in Iowa, bills keep being introduced to make it so people buying groceries with SNAP/EBT can't buy fresh meat, only canned. Even though we are the land of pigs and a pound of fresh pork is less than half the price of something like a pound of Spam. Our representatives don't even pretend to have a reason other than "lol go gently caress yourself". Edit: plain flour is also being proposed as a non-eligible luxury item.

I love that they're going to crush a significant portion of demand for their own state products.

The "environmentally friendly" paper straws restaurants use are lined with so much plastic to keep them from getting soggy, I bet they actually increase the amount of plastic being dumped into the environment.

Regardless of which non-apple phone you buy, make sure you deactivate iMessage before you move your SIM/number to the new phone, else you won't get txt messages until you do (which will suck for trying to log back into apps).
