I really, really want to see Jordan Klepper debate with interview Trump and not hold back at all.

Seconded. Seth had to pitch the show to Fox as a sort of live-action family guy and kept it going for the first few episodes, but it quickly sheds that vibe and keeps getting better.

Now would be a good time to start watching Doctor Who (2005) if you haven’t yet 😂

Then just remind them that they have something in common 😂

I already stated as much my guy, they screwed up letting users know what was going on. First in the release notes, second in the press release they put out about it. That’s why Apple was found to have deceived customers and rightfully so.

I’m not arguing that. I’m just stating the intentions behind it have been completely dominated by the media and reader’s reactionary responses to hearing “Apple slowed down your phone”. All I ever said here was that there was a very good reason for doing so, and it wasn’t planned obsolescence.

As for lineageos, it also slows down the CPU as needed when a consumed battery cannot output the necessary power or when the operating temperature exceeds safe limits. Most OSes do that. The ones that don’t cause data corruption.

You seem to misunderstand the issue still. It’s not an OS issue. It’s an issue with a consumable part becoming consumed. Until the update, iPhones just shut off when the OS tried to pull too much power. All Apple did was trade shutoffs (compromising user data) for dynamic CPU throttling (sometimes slower performance but your data is fine). Where they screwed up was in telling the users what they were doing and why.

It doesn’t matter if we’re talking about iOS, Android, a fork, or something else. An OS has battery management capabilities or it doesn’t.

That doesn’t change the fact that Apple should’ve been more transparent, but you’re not avoiding this very common method of resource management because of the type of device you have, unless lineageos can defy the laws of physics and consumable batteries.

Yeah you’re talking about batterygate. That was blown way out of proportion by the media. I know this because I worked for Apple from as far back as 2012 and most iPhone repairs were from old batteries shutting off around 30% charge remaining because the battery was so consumed, it couldn’t keep up with the voltage the hardware was pulling. This led to frequent shutoffs, data corruption and a whole lot of angry customers.

In an iOS 10 update they tweaked iOS to throttle to a speed the battery could handle. So yeah, your old phone might run a little slower, but it wouldn’t shut off in the middle of use and corrupt your shit.

The problem was they didn’t elaborate in the release notes and didn’t give customers heads up as to why they did that. Then their press release was written by engineers. Tech blogs spun the story as “OMG APPLE IS SLOWING YOUR PHONE SO YOU BUY A NEW ONE”.

No.

Apple is telling your phone to dumb itself down to what your old-ass battery can handle. As a result, they also dramatically lowered the price of battery swaps for several years after this whole experience to like $29, and just this last week they officially affirmed their unwritten commitment of supporting devices with software updates for at least 5 years.

Be mad at Apple for shit they deserve please. They’re not a great company and do a lot of shitty things that deserve this kind of hatred. But I lived this. You just have a surface level understanding of what happened.

The only way to circumvent this problem is to invent a battery that doesn’t age. The person who does that is going to be a _very _ rich dude.

Yeah that’s not my experience. Maybe it’s yours and I apologize for that, but my 11 is still running like it was brand new.

Got any proof that “Apple intentionally builds in incremental slowdowns in each patch”? There was batterygate but that was a messaging problem.

Please elaborate on the iTrash slowdown thing. I have an idea of what you’re referring to but want to make sure I’m right.

Fair and square

If they thought that they would be completely unfit to run a community anyway.

There was nothing even remotely homophobic about what OP said in the banned posts.

Maybe the Mod thinks the ban is deserved, but they definitely knew the reason was made up because they made it up.

Is this the right way to get admin attention then? If no, what is the proper recourse?

Mods should have the power to ban I just don’t want to be banned for made up BS reasons.

Right, is that not fucked up? What kind of a community can you have with such an abusive mod stifling discussion because their jimmies are rustled?

I was banned once on that same community and I owned up to having broken a rule and deserved it. I’m back in it and haven’t broken the same rule, and admit I screwed up. But this user did nothing wrong except make mod big mad. That kind of power does the opposite of what services like lemmy are supposedly here to do.

Specifically a made up and false reason. None of what was banned in those screenshots were remotely homophobic. This particular mod is extremely ban happy and has resorted to using BS reasons to report those he doesn’t like.

I realize they’re allowed to ban people from their own communities, but shouldn’t their listed reasons at least be accurate?

While mods should be able to ban for any reason, their reason listed should be accurate, IMO. Otherwise they’re just power tripping and that shouldn’t be allowed.
