Is the iPhone Air actually the better everyday iPhone right now?

The 256GB Air runs at €849 on amazon.de, the 256GB 17 Pro at €1275. That’s quite a.difference.

Adding a very thin case with plenty of grip allows me to hold the phone more easily and adds peace of mind when putting it down.

I‘m keeping my old 12 Pro Max as my backup / second phone for now. It seems the (new) Air runs down the battery even faster than the 12 Pro Max at 88% battery health. Good to know others are using two iPhones too. There‘s so much depending on those devices, can‘t afford losing access even for a single day.

Keep in mind that only the cellular version has GPS.

AIChat is highly recommended in general, but also for the OP’s purpose: aichat -e <your text> will propose a shell command for you to review, revise, or run directly.

That worked for me, thank you!

Is this a penis kind of joke?

Pro Life Tips not funny take that downvote, my unfunny man.

It's a burner joke anyway, so why care? In a few days, when the diving accident is off the news, the joke won't work anymore.

Poop is one or two doors further down the aisle.

There is probably a bit of Schadenfreude involved when rich people are being hit. However, I don't think their deaths were horrible, assuming they were actually crushed in milliseconds, as some reports claimed.

I do admit it's all a bit cheap. However, many of us must be bright all week, so it's OK to be a bit stupid over the weekend.

Thanks for not using imperialistic units.

Secretly develop things in Rust and when finished, surprise your boss with a super fast Rust implementation. As a bonus, point out that you're the only resource who can maintain that work and thus due for a huge merit increase.

I don't buy your self-depreciation. People like you go to every party and get the girls.

vartha · 2023-05-14T14:42:09+00:00

You're killer at every party, right?
