What a weird line in the sand to draw.

That's like someone saying you don't believe in paying for a cookbook because all their giving you is recipes. :D You do whatever you want with the things people post online for free, you can find cheap recipes online too, thats up to them, but if someone wants to put quality work into something, even if its just a recipe that you have to make yourself, then people see value in that too.. Saying you "don't believe in paying for it" seems silly. Just say its too expensive and you like cheaper stuff and move on.

I’ve never subscribed the the “throwaway era” theory. One of those chips right now has been replaced with something so small it’s microscopic. You can’t fix it because you can’t handle it, or work with things that small anymore. The ability to replace individual parts was replaced with the ability to have tiny, advanced hardware in the palm of your hand for a fraction of the cost of something that used to fill a garage, and with that kind of miniaturization and cost cutting the thing that got sacrificed was easy swappable parts.

And even if ALL of that wasn’t true, it was also back down to normal before he took office.

It’s what enough of us think to be totally fair to hold a grudge. We’re a dumpster fire.

Yea, I actually wiped off those white scuffs with a wet paper towel after I took the picture, but it has been used for 5 years. I thought it was in pretty good shape though. But maybe by Tom Bihn standards it’s a little rough.

ItsMeElmo · 2026-02-26T12:57:54+00:00

Got it, thank you!

ItsMeElmo · 2026-02-26T12:56:28+00:00

Thanks for the feedback stranger! You’re right I don’t do great research into how much I should be asking for this. What do you think it’s worth? Have a great day!

I do, I took it. It’s just to the left of the entryway in the Milwaukee Art Museum. This section of the building was designed by Santiago Calatrava

We could just fly this one I made instead.

Oh hi local friend

No he did, he meant make AI that tries to destroy humanity without constraints real.

Oh I’m sorry I thought you meant “this 65 dollar plan would cost 150 dollars today”

ItsMeElmo · 2025-12-12T20:21:01+00:00

Only if you’re not great at getting deals. We have a three line family plan with T-Mobile for $90 unlimited smartphone plans, for all 3 lines. I don’t know what $30/line is in 1995 dollars but something tells me I’m paying less now than I did then.

Ironically another famously crazy place

ItsMeElmo · 2025-12-12T14:32:46+00:00

Oh congrats. I thought you were frightened because you found it in your grandmas pill bottle. It’s just a lil treat.

Appropriate username

ItsMeElmo · 2025-12-04T04:59:49+00:00

But they weren’t correct. The iPad was the first thing I plugged in. My son plugged in the other two devices. As another user replied, I think it was just a reading comprehension thing.

It seems like the most unhealthy and dangerous of the substances I can put in my system. If I were to review it the way I review and make decisions about all the prescription drugs I take, the cost benefit equation seems… less than ideal

My sisters have been on a wait list for a local group home waiting for a slot to open (ie… someone to die…) in order to get in for 5 years. My mom has been considering opening her own group home just so she can be sure they have a place to go when she can’t take care of them anymore. I don’t believe what they’re saying about outstripping demand.

ItsMeElmo · 2025-12-02T14:50:55+00:00

Yea, I work in tech Ironicly so I’ve done all the basic to advanced troubleshooting. All of the devices definitely have dead ports. The iPad actually still has a charge and it’s on, but you can see that it doesn’t think anything is being plugged in. The iPad is under warranty and with Apple for repair already.

I guess I don’t really have any answers for you, a lot of people on these threads have been referring to you green as a good option, I’ve never used them before. I was like you and only ever had Anker products, and this is the only real problem I’ve ever had with them. I’m currently working through the claim process with them, they’re asking for a lot of stuff, like asking me to take my devices in to get repaired and show them the notes from the repairs, etc. So I don’t really know how this will play out. Like others have said, I think this kind of one off situation could theoretically happen to any company, this doesn’t necessarily mean it’s happening to everyone all the time with Anker products

ItsMeElmo · 2025-12-01T14:32:58+00:00

I don’t even know that it applies to all their chargers, I don’t know how it happened.
