Thanks for making the joke memes about GenXers being ignored an actual truth.

Many of us grew up with the same cartoons and are more than familiar with the Looney Tunes and Wile E Coyote.

In fact, my wife (who is a millennial) and I were laughing about news we saw recently about a picture taken of a coyote with a roadrunner in its mouth.

Ya'll acting like parents suddenly stopped parenting. Tell me, how many of you are GenXers who got away with doing whatever you wanted? Latchky kids, out all afternoon doing whatever.. calling parents lying about where they were staying, etc..

Nothing new under the sun. Its true, parents should do a better job at parenting, but that's almost never been true, especially with city kids.

From the department of no shit, Sherlock.

Regardless of what you think of AOC, there will not be an AOC 48. Just like there would never be a Hillary 45. The US will be the last democratic country to elect a woman to the highest office. Canada, Italy and a couple others havent, either, but if Japan can elect a woman as Prime Minister, then the others surely will, at some point.

Pixel?

I just got the 15 in March and I'm hoping I get at least 6 years out of it like the 7T Pro I had.

I am also saddened.

I can't stand Samsung. I had three separate models over about ten years. Their poor quality led me to try something else and when T-Mobile briefly sold OnePlus phones, I did some research and took a gamble. It worked out, in my mind.

My 7T Pro just bricked itself, so be careful.. I haven't taken it to anyone to check, but I suspect the data storage did the typical SSD thing. Im hoping I can still pull data off it.

So, I'm just saying, if you want your phone to last forever, you might want to swap out the storage, if that's even possible.

Yeah. I stuck with the brand because of my previous experience with the high quality phones. Before I made this decision, I was looking around and several of my friends were saying they love their Pixels.. so maybe look at that?

I'm really bummed by this. i've own a 7t Pro for over 6 years and due to it hitting full end of life (bricking) I went with the 15. Its a really good phone, although I'm getting used to the weird difference in how it charges.. sometimes its slow and sometimes its not, depending on the cable and adapter being used.

Oh, what, like the current federal administration? Lol.

As someone who lives in Los Angeles, no, no there is not.

Yep. My OnePlus 7t pro lasted far longer than any other phone I've had (Samsungs, old Google G2, that old slide phone with the qwerty keyboard who's name I've forgotten). It's made me a convert so I stuck with the brand instead of switching to a Pixel.

I'm on my second OnePlus. I got the 7t pro when TMobile was offering it in the states after having several Samsungs and just being over what garbage phones they are. The 7t pro just bricked itself back in Feb after being a mostly solid phone for six years. The battery life was starting to show signs of age middle of last year and I was hoping to eke out another year, but unfortunately that wouldn't come to pass. My only seriously complaint was that the biometrics on it never really worked and the one I got this year, everything works flawlessly.

Yup. Talked about this before.

Company I distribute products for used to use FedEx. There were issues. Other distributors, and - I assume - customers complained about them. Owner ended up talking to USPS and I think DeJoy, who sold him on a bunch of promises. Lemme tell you things got worse before they eventually, kind of, got better. Things still aren't perfect, but apparently there's been enough complaints that we got an email last week that there's a "test run" using Amazon logistics. We'll see how that goes. I've occasionally bought some stuff off Amazon and the drivers can be illiterate or incompetent in deciphering unit numbers for businesses in strip malls.
