Thieves return Android phone when they realize it's not an iPhone
  • Did you not read anything I wrote?

    And no, that isn't likely the path for stolen phones,especially when it's a theft of opportunity by someone looking to feed a drug habit. They aren't thinking about going to a fence who can give them what the phone is worth at that level of the chain.

    As I said in another comment, the locks both apple and android put in years ago had a major impact on the theft of phones. It's pointless to steal them unless it's part of a larger operation or you're trying to get a phone that's unlocked so you can siphon money from someone instead of just reselling the phone.

  • Nicotine is harmful and no one, especially kids should be using it. Maybe you don't know what nicotine does to the human body. If you know how it works on insects, it does the same thing to humans, especially when it's consumed over decades. Now that it's available in vape form, it's even easier and way more likely to use even more and do more harm.

    As for the flavors and colors. You need to educate yourself on the history of marketing tobacco and alcohol. These companies have never been marketing to adults with the candy flavors and the unicorn colors. You may not be old enough to remember wine coolers but those of us who do, remember that adults rarely drank them. Same goes for these vapes.

    For the record. Afaik, thc does not have any of the same negative side effects as nicotine. You'll live longer and healthier if you vape the "real" stuff or even the delta 8, 9,10, etc vs nicotine.

    Not saying that the state should be outlawing it. Simply offering some real info and a counter to your claims of it being fun. It may be "fun" now but not so fun decades or sooner down the road when you have dementia, heart problems, etc.

    Oh and I did block you because your only argument based on the comment I replied to would be, (fuck you, because, reasons). Homey don't have time for that.

  • True. But the average idiot stealing a phone to feed a habit isn't going to be able to bypass it. Of course those being stolen by order of a larger group can do it. But these locks severely reduced the number of opportunity thefts.

  • This isn't the case anymore. Starting sometime back you can't just reset android and set it up from scratch. It needs the pin and/or account that was on it prewipe. They are still likely good for parts but it's pointless to steal newer smart phones.

  • Do you prefer to wear a smartwatch or a regular watch?
  • One word, garmin. Garmin has its own special charger but it's designed for ruggedneas and there are several adapters on the market that let you charge it with usbc. My 7x goes for 3+weeks with spo2 turned on and does everything else a normal smartwatch does like notifications, quick replies, music, etc.

  • Do you prefer to wear a smartwatch or a regular watch?
  • You should look at garmin. My 7x goes for weeks with all data collection on and the screen is clear enough to see without the back light when there is enough ambient light.

    Unless I am recording tons of workouts, I don't have to charge the battery but every few weeks. I sometimes plug it in when I take a shower so I don't have to worry about it.

  • Trust in nature – and stop raking up your garden leaves
  • You need to add that to the previous comment. You sounded like a loon who thought that leaves wouldn't do any damage if left on top of the grass to smother them. You will lose some grass and depending on how many leaves as well the temp and amount of rainfall, you could end up with a ton of dead grass. I cleared my leaves as soon as I could after they fell.

  • Trust in nature – and stop raking up your garden leaves
  • It definitely can kill grass if you have enough trees and therefore leaves. I still have a few dead spots from the leaves I missed last year. I do basic maintenance and care for my yard and it's thicker and more lush than neighbors who go full tilt. Part of that maintenance is making sure the leaves don't kill the grass. I did one round of mowing the leaves and when I could finally get around to clearing the rest that dropped instead of mowing I blew it all into the storm ditch.

    I have a major problem with the idea of bagging it up and sending it somewhere else, but, you do need to get the leaves off of any grass that you want to survive and grow. Maybe you don't care about having grass, that's cool but for the umpteenth time here just so I get it across, leaves can and will kill grass.

  • Feds subpoena Ticketmaster over egregious concert ticket prices — A spokesperson for Live Nation, which owns Ticketmaster, said the firm doesn't “feel comfortable” sharing information with Congress
  • That's just the beginning. Other artists have tried to avoid livenation venues but when the artist finds a venue, livenation just goes and buys said venue. That shit right there should have been taken to court.

    Funny how these legal actions against companies like this only happen under democratic presidents.

  • Way to out yourself as one of the idiots I'm talking about. Reddit is full of jackasses who think they are the epitome of knowledge on a subject when the opposite is the truth, the ones who post the most telling others they are wrong are the ones who don't know shit about jack, sadly these numbnuts are making there way here, apparently you are one of them.
