Given Musk's track record of making big claims about autonomous driving, usually when the stock price needs a boost, all of which have failed to materialise, I wouldn't invest too much hope in that "before 2027" date: based on his track record the price is irrelevant because the vehicle will probably never be released.

But on pricing, yeah, I seem to remember that the Model 3 was also originally teased as having a low price that turned out to be considerably higher when it was actually launched. So that's another thing that Musk has form on.

(Mind you we don't need to worry about the Cybertruck on this side of the Pond: that sharp-edged rigid body means it doesn't meet the pedestrian safety standards for it to be legal to drive it on a public road here, and as Mr Musk generally throws a tantrum whenever he's told that he doesn't have a special exemption from regulations I don't imagine it will ever be sold here).

Yeah Odin is a real challenge ..

I have done that with my moto z2 turbo years ago..

Had no cell forever though it was hell..

It's becoming evident that the S25 series will sell well internationally due to the exclusive use of 3nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC instead of Samsung's own 3nm Exynos 2500.

The Exynos 2500 is on par with, in some ways superior to, and a lot cheaper than, the Snapdragon 8 Elite. With only a steady 25-28% production rate on the 3nm foundry, however, not enough functioning processors can be made to be profitable. Samsung has now run out of time and must use Snapdragon across all devices.

Qualcomm has already announced a double digit price increase for the Snapdragon 8 Elite... unless Samsung can pull some magic software features out of its hat, sales may be fairly modest in an increasingly competitive market.

It is A02 and yes I am aware that there is custom android 12 for A02s.

I placed a request on the Samsung forum for a request to improve change the Kernel to allow the clock speed of the phone to start at less than 64%.

The average cycle life of a battery is suppose to be 500 times and all my other devices still have the same battery as the day they got purchased about 10 years ago or less.

Samsung is suppose to be a quality device, even if only a budget phone.

Since I only charge the phone 2-3 time per month then I still did not cycle the battery more than 150 times since I got it so no need for it to degrade yet.

My suspicion is in the min CPU frequency which never drops to less than 64% at all 4 cores. So I need to be able to edit the kernel to change that to a much lower setting.

i never bothered with it. it was more annoying than anything else. i am a power user and use my phone all day. i also keep all performances up to its max. as i prefer the screen to be bright and the phone fast. so because of that i make sure i have chargers always ready to charge it. and yes i know this will deplete my battery life in the long run, but i only own phones for 2-3 years before i move on. so battery life is not a concern for me.

thanks. Yes, I've also decided adaptive brightness is more of a pain than anything. Additionally, I have turned off "adaptive battery" as this can cause a delay in notifications. If I receive an important email or text, or am alerted to movement from my security camera, I don't want any delay for those things.
The battery is lasting soooooo much longer than my previous phone anyway, so I'm good with it.

also check to see if there is an update for the app. and you might as well see if the phone needs to be updated as well.

You might give Command Wire Hooks a look.

They stick on the wall with double faced tape. I've not used the product but the net suggests them for hanging hats. Here is a video on how to install.

I have attempted on hanging my wooden nest I did almost a year ago on my painted wall, left a huge gouge on it, as well as a clock on my wall too..

I hope that there is something else.


The other CM product, for paintings and artwork works for me. Very wonderful.

You have to understand how a heat pump works.

When the a/c mode is running the heat is removed from inside the space to outside the space. That is why the outside unit blows hot air, that is the heat that was removed from inside.

A heat pump uses a reversing valve to reverse the cycle, it removes the (recoverable) heat from outside and deposits it inside.

There is "recoverable heat" down to like 300 and some odd degrees below zero, yet one must know that the recovered heat is also going to be a negative number.

Now, heat pumps have what is called a "break point", which is where the system can not deliver enough heat to be comfortable via the "heat pump" cycle.

This is where the auxiliary heating comes in, this is basically an electric heat strip that is activated when the break point is reached. So you are not only running the compressor you are running heat strip(s), doubling down on the light bill ! ! !

Most wall heat pump thermostats provide the option to not use the "emergency heat" mode, (or to use it exclusively), but it will not be enough heat to stay comfortable if it is cold enough to pass the "break point".

In central systems the auxiliary heat package, (emergency heat) is optional and must be purchased and installed at the time of equipment installation.

One year I had a call from a customer complaining it was cold, that year we had snow on the ground. (this is tropical paradise fer christ sake)

I got out of the truck and could hear the compressor running, the heat pump was working. I went inside and it was colder inside than outside where the snow was !

To the attic to see why the emergency heat was not working and surprise !

There was NO emergency heat, the system was installed as a heat pump only system, bad move !

Of course I could not explain this in layman terms to the customer, all I could advise her to do was call the landlord and have him call me if he had any questions as to why it was cold in the house ....

Anything to save a dollar eh ?

Thnkx for keeping the place up to date.

coffee straight up for now.

Later it will be this :

After dinner, I went riding. Half way between my town and the town South, two dudes were set up to attempt some pictures. There were high clouds and I think their chances were slim for a window. I stopped and wished them good luck all the same. I rode until near dark. The West sky was rose colored. I think they got in a good practice run.

Used to watch it faithfully, then let it slip away for awhile. I am back to occasional viewing, watched several episodes yesterday.

It's a biggie, 1 tb. A while back I tried to remove it but it's stuck tight. I might have messed up by trying to open the "tray" with that weird paper clip thing because before that it at least showed. I have rebooted the Play twice and shaken it. What's next?

Click to expand...

if the tray is stuck, you can try a repair shop. or you can try iFixit: The Free Repair Manual and look up your phone and see if they have a repair guide. you can even order tools there to help open up the phone to get at the sd card tray.

i use youmail free app - Android Apps on Google Play.

it screen calls, text messages, and you can use their voicemail.

i have also used Hiya: Spam Blocker & Caller ID - Apps on Google Play in the past.

Were you using Google contacts? Just install it, sync, and all are there. If not, without a backup, you'll need to enter all of them again one by one.

Yeah Just did that, but what if I lost a friend of mine's number though, oh well that is alright.. I barely see her enough as it is.
