Couldn’t have been better said. I work in an industry full of narcissists, the OP just needs to regularly start flexing the part of the mind that allows us all to sincerely conceptualize the situation of another party. It’s strangely fun once you get good at doing it.

Notepad++ isn’t trying to shoehorn in AI for starters. It’s clear Microsoft is praying the current gimmicky narrative of AI will let the masses not realize this is a privacy nightmare.

It’s a good thing I stayed loyal to Firefox. Mainly due to my dislike of change lol, but I was forced to use Chrome and it felt ominous with its owner being Google.

It’s believable, seeing as his body is built like a Cybertruck.

I would assume the answer to the first is because it’s cheaper to pay for a death than a lifetime of medical care.

For the second, the more software integrated into a car the easier it is to steal.

Third, Elon likely has a fetish for controlling and monitoring car buyers.

Thanks, the past years of cellphone shenanigans have me paranoid lol.

Thanks, done.

Thanks, it says no sim restrictions.

Currently it’s 97.56GB out of 128GB. So around 26% free space? Guessing 256GB will be enough.

Thanks, appreciate the clarification.

Yikes, well it shouldn’t be locked.

That’s what I was worried about lol, glad those days are over and I can just pick “Connect to any Carrier later” option.

I’m debating on whether larger storage is worth it, 256GB to 512GB for $200 more. Any thoughts? Appreciate the detailed feedback.

Understood, thanks.

Understood, thanks!

I don’t have the phone yet, so I can’t check that. I just know this is what the purchase screen showed.

Since I already have T-Mobile, should I select that when purchasing, or is no carrier fine?

I’m buying from Apple directly with no carrier, figure that’s safer.

It should be, the phone is an old iPhone 11.

I currently have T-Mobile and I’m due and upgrade. I just don’t want the shenanigans of buying through them or paying extra monthly. So I would imagine they won’t throw a fit? 🤔

You could be right and it includes a phone cost, it would make sense. But they likely want more payment plans, despite wanting to pay mine off ASAP.
