You’re talking loud, but say so little.
Your post history is an argument. You made it - in public. I’m just citing it.
PS: I believe in you too, champ.
PPS: Still waiting on well…frankly anything not resembling a brain fart from you. You can do it! Maximum effort!
You wish, jellyfish :)
Don’t you have a long suffering GF to try to right-think and brow beat some more?
Yeah, that was my feeling on it too. Cute, but too itty bitty. I already have an android flip phone if I want that form factor.
It sounds like the Cubots would be ideal for you…IF you can find evidence of CFW unlocking your regional bands.
Sorry dude. Chin up - they nuked 3G here entirely. Which means none of the good, old phones work at all. I have a Nokia N95 that’s awesome but I can’t do squat with it as a phone any more.
I got mine off Aliexpress, fwiw.

The phone itself is awesome. The T9 keyboard is ass (the membrane they used is just not good). I got mine in 2022 iirc. I cycle between my Samsung A20 (yes, it still works well, 9 yrs in) and the local equivalent of the TCL flip (android 8.1 based).
I actually just installed this on it and it’s blazing fast STT now -

Edit to add: I have the F21 (the smaller one, candybar). The F22 is about the same height and an iphone, except halfish of the width.
You had me at at diamorphine.
You. Had. Me. At. Diamorphine.
Hmm. I think the issue with all these phones is that the modems can support those bands just fine but they’re generally tuned for Asian and European markets. Predominantly because those sorts of phones sell en mass there, maybe.
For example, I have a duoquin F22 pro (think modern Nokia). I know that folks over on XDA have flashed CFW to region unlock them for US.
You might be able to find what you want (the Cubots sound like a near match) quite cheaply but you’ll have to check XDA for CFWs first. Quite a few of these phones ship with unlocked bootloaders and AOSP by default so they are pretty easy to tinker with.
Else… How do you feel about the JellyStar?
It’s like being a plumber.
The plumber comes over, looks at the problem, says hmm, taps on pipe and charges you $500.
You’re not paying for the hammer or the 30 seconds of work. You’re paying for the 25 years it took them to learn what to do so that it fixes the issue.
The hammer is fungible. The plumber is not. Don’t be the hammer.
You’re jumping into the middle of a conversation where OP delightfully asked if Claude was puppeteering me anally when I asked him if he knew what ethical meant, besides several other bon mots and snide remarks to myself and other posters.
View the full conversation in context.
OP has an FuckAI axe to grind (click their post history), not a substantive point to make.
This is not a serious thread. This is a dogwhistle for the FuckAI crowd.
For thread OP? I think you mean 6-7
Ah, sorry. My bad.
I’ve been considering this one myself but it’s a bit funky

Dunno what your bands are there but the spec sheet has B1, B3, B5, B7, B8, B20, B28, B34, B38, B39, B40 and B41.
Might be more US friendly version? If not, I know the folks over on XDA forum tend to flash custom firmware with these.
I dunno - genuinely. I just heard about it and thought “ofc someone did that”

Forget Jesus. What was Grug the caveman like? :P
I’ll get off your lawn now, sir.
Lol at “pressed”. You’re loud and you’re all over this thread like a rash. I’m taking a shit at the dentist and replying to you. That should tell you how much your posts matter to me. It’s literally up there between getting cavities filled and flushing a turd.
And yes, I get it. Big words and basic logic confuses you. No wonder you think my replies are AI-generated.
“If you disagree with me, you must be a machine. Say ad-hominem again!”.
You’ve gone from “99.99% of Rust projects are slop” to critiquing my writing style and implying I’m a clanker. But still no evidence for anything you’re caviling against. Still no logic. Still no idea about agents.md, Kant or much of anything. Lots of big feelings though. Lots of personal insults and shit talking.
Oh look - I used 3 in a row. Must be AI gen.
TTFN.
Never said the two were mutually exclusive. You invented that argument, then congratulated yourself for winning it.
You claim 99.99% of Rust projects are slop. Bold claim, big man. But apart from shitposting a meme, you’ve provided precisely zero evidence.
You also apparently don’t understand what agents.md is for.
For someone so concerned about the quality of other people’s code, your own logic sure could use some serious debugging.
Oh, I read perfectly well. You praised Rust, then dismissed 99.99% of its projects as “slop”.
I think you should learn to formulate an argument without relying on ad-hominems and logical fallacies. Then you might have an opinion worth expressing.
What was Jesus like, Gandalf?
(Ti-83, Casio FX-82 or were you still using the Antikythera mechanism back then :p
Dis you?
I don’t believe you. Is a shorn scrotum spectacular? Was your mother a French prostitute?
