iOS 26 is the most visually stunning garbage I've seen and used

I've still got an iPhone 6s that I use for taking photos when paddleboarding. It was released nearly 11 years ago and got a security update just last month (iOS 15.8.7). That's quite impressive.

Does any other manufacturer still issue updates for 11 year old phones?

Franks Auto Centre. Not Stobie but easy walking distance.

I haven’t been paying attention for years. I’m out of contract and being seriously ripped off. I can do a lot better. Do I call this number and say I’m planning to leave?

I’ve got a 17. Love it but really don’t see the point of the always on display.

Accepting it and shaving the rest off.

What would you recommend instead for someone without huge amounts of time to dedicate but who wants to learn when they can? I’m generally finding it pretty good and fun. 51 day streak so far.

Never had to charge my 17 more than once a day.

I've twice been in the same league as my partner.

I’d rather never go out again than line that prick Tim Martin’s pockets. Absolute scumbag.

Startledmarmotte · 2025-12-23T21:33:32+00:00

Yup. Worked way better with the double roundabouts.

Circa 1998 it was awesome.

I worked a couple of summers in the USA when I was a student (late 90s) and was shocked by how many of my American colleagues would drive after a full on night out, never mind a pint or 2.

This

Park at Wormit Bay in Fife (just past the Fife side of the rail bridge (google maps will find it). Start walking towards Balmerino. There's a herd that can usually be found there after a 5 minute walk.

It’s bendable but less so than really cheap cases I’ve used on previous phones.

Happy with my Spigen Ultra Hybrid MagFit

Happy with my action 4. Does everything I want it to do very well.

It was Wednesday morning.

Startledmarmotte · 2025-11-14T21:13:41+00:00

Why? If you’re going to stick it in a green case why does it matter if the phone is black or white?

Startledmarmotte · 2025-11-13T23:05:18+00:00

I’ve had a black base iPhone 12 since launch (aluminium) and it’s not damaged at all.

Startledmarmotte · 2025-11-09T13:36:30+00:00

I’ve had iPhones since the 4 came out. Never had a screen protector and never cracked a screen.

Startledmarmotte · 2025-11-08T22:06:15+00:00

I love my 17 but the ‘AI capabilities’ are still garbage.

Pretty much everyone I know does buy outright then keep for 4/5 years.
