  • “documenting the change” is a pipe dream.

    If you’ve ever worked in maintenance, active production, etc, you’ll be lucky to even have schematics. And trust me, there are a lot of hacks of people fucking with controls for 30+ years straight that soooo much of it is full of “fixes” like this, whether it’s something pushing a button in, or pieces of metal instead of fuses, or wires jumping over what’s “in the way” like whole safety systems and e-stops, contactors forced to run, etc etc etc.










  • FWIW, I’m still using a pixel 3A and don’t have plans to change anytime soon. They really do last for a long time.

    Things like (old) fast charging and not having to charge it every day are what still blow my mind and feel like modern innovations to me. It’s still pretty responsive and fast enough for what I use it for. Sometimes my texts take a little to load anymore but I don’t really mind.

    YMMV depending on what you want out of a phone I guess. I try not to look at my phone unless I have to for a text or call or email abymore. But I’ve been on this train since the Nexus 6P. If you want a solid, stable phone that lasts a long time and very little fluff or bloat, go pixel. The flexibility for custom ROMs and rooting and things is unmatched as well. I’ll continue to use this thing until I drop it down the street one day or it gets aggravating to use somehow
