Super Saiyan 3 Goku 08/22/18 8:53:35 PM #57:	Yeah, from a speed perspective it isn't worth it. A 3 or 4 year old phone may load GameFAQs a few seconds slower than a current flagship. It's the extras and/or intangibles that may warrant an expensive device. --- When it is obvious that the goals cannot be reached, don't adjust the goals, adjust the action steps. - Confucius <cite>Super Saiyan 3 Goku posted [p:907376191] in Spending $...

Not spending that much on overpriced commercialized garbage technology again. That blows. Fortunately, Ive never had issues on the apple side of phones. As much as people love to talk shit about apple being overpriced garbage, their products are very stable and have the endurance of a nokia brick in comparison to its competitors. I've been buying Samsung phones every ~2 years for almost a decade now, never had a problem. My girlfriend's S7 is over 3 years old now, still runs great.

DevsBro 08/22/18 10:46:01 PM #71:	Normally I say computers are stupid. This is because I work with them and know from experience that they will do literally anything they are told, regardless of whether it makes sense and regrdless if it's even in their own best interest. But then there are people who spend upwards of $1000 for a SOC with a touchscreen on it, all because of advertising, which kind of puts that into perspective. --- 53 LIII 0b110101 p16 0x35 <cite>DevsBro posted [p:907382357] in Spending $...
