While apple did improve the design, they mostly made it “cool”. Before that they were “nerd” phones. The Motorola V3 was a “cooler “phone at the time until the iPhone came out.

Did he forget about windows mobile pda phones that predated the iPhone? I had one of these before the iPhone was a thing: https://m.gsmarena.com/o2_xda_iis-933.php

Same. It will either be amazing or terrible.

So was my first CD burner.

Same. For me it sits better than McDonald’s and I don’t feel gross afterwards.

This is exactly me. For a server it’s Linux but for everyday use/work a MacBook Pro is great. It just works. It’s great as you can fire up the command line to manage Linux servers easily. That’s how I admin my Lemmy Ansible install.

For gaming I use Windows. It’s all about the best tool for the job.

I feel you. I had to do the whole training/screen sharing thing for new hires in India. Generally I keep it to a 2 hour session and then get them to practise/slack questions in combination of “busy” work to keep them occupied. No way I could do that for a full day.

Each instance stores post thumbnails locally even if the post was on another server. It actually takes up quite a bit of hdd space.

I’m more talking global purchases. Just the email will probs be ok but if you purchase using that email and a vpn it raises flags.

Great to know! Thanks :)

I’ll be honest, when it comes to online purchases you may find that a protonmail email will require extra processing/fraud checking due to the amount of fraudsters that use it. Combine that with a vpn and it will just be a pain here and there with online purchases like additional ID verification/delayed orders etc…
