No, I’m not. People don’t turn down free stuff with no strings attached. It doesn’t happen.

Because it’s free. I guarantee you 90% of people will take free shit if offered free shit.
Including it for free completely undermines the whole reason for removing the cable.
Then everyone will claim one and you’ll increase waste.
The whole reason they’re removing the cable is because of pressure from governments not to waste materials including it.
Because there’s very little overlap between people who need them and people who know that it’s an option.
The people claiming them would primarily be people like me who do know how it works, know that I probably won’t use it, but am going to take it anyways, because it’s free and because it is within the realm of possibility that I need another cable as a temporary replacement until I get another one.
That’s ugly as hell too.
If they were free on demand for people who asked with their purchase:
None of the people who need them would get them.
Most of the ones that did get handed out would still be to people who never used them.
That’s what they actually did if you read the article. They don’t pass through the eyes the same when you’re on a keyboard now.
You should do your research on how wake words work. They literally are only capable of identifying the selected words and they do an obscene amount of training to do so efficiently, because actually processing all the audio your phone is exposed to can’t possibly be done in a reasonable way.
That’s not my point. Most games do install fine from the disk.
He’s talking about playing from the disk, too, and that’s a problem.
They still have to install.
Disks are too slow.
It’s not “complexity”.
It’s that end users have no interest in paying for individual songs.
Choose between:
Entirely fabricated

On their own hardware, that isn’t a smartphone, because they don’t make them.
Both iOS and Android make it abundantly clear when your mic is hot and when apps have access to it. It’s not possible to listen undetected.
RCS is the new MMS. It’s the official “text message” replacement.
It’s shit and until the standard becomes not shit, messages between Android and iMessage are still going to suck. Almost all the stuff people think is RCS are the proprietary Google extensions that only work through Google’s servers.
But they’re supporting it because it’s the next iteration of “texting” carrier wise.
No, it’s not. “Your phone is listening to you” is an idiotic myth.
Yeah, autocorrect is bad enough without the extra emphasis on it with swipe.
Pictures.
Which are automatically downloaded by every active user of the chat on every individual client, and many people do at least tens per day.
Many of the kids affected have no access to another device. The whole reason schools supply hardware now is because it’s needed to access their educational materials, and it’s massively inequitable to only have students who have money able to develop their skills at home.
That’s fine.
But third parties should still be heavily limited on the information they can gather from just class work usage.
The government holds loads of confidential information, including keys. It’s perfectly fine.
Anything short of the code already existing and being ready to release allows bankruptcy to kill devices and isn’t good enough.
At most I could see it being a kind of novelty for stuff like movie theaters to add to the immersion. And the obvious ads bullshit.
