"CT scanners are woke" - Trump supporters, probably

Does this count as drop shipping?

[–] schnokobaer@feddit.org 44 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I mean, is it even shipping?

Drop skipping

[–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 week ago

Did someone say pants shitting?
I do the best shitting of pants, tremendous. Big men come up to me with tears in their eyes -from the stench- and they say "sir," they all call me sir, they say, "sir, that's the best pants shitting I've ever smelt. The sound is like a volcano erupting. Please, do it again".
Some people say that they've never seen pants being shit on so vigorously. Yet it's something I do multiple times a day!!

White labeling. It could ALSO be dropshipped but no idea about that.

How do we know that HTC didn't just rip off the immaculately designed Trump Phone?

[–] smeenz@lemmy.nz 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Many very important people are saying so...

they moved the position of the light LED nearby the camera. That's a surprising amount of effort for something that even has the wrong number of stripes on the american flag

[–] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 42 points 1 week ago

It's worse than having the wrong number of stripes. There's the right number of stripes on there, because he's using his name as the bottom stripe.

He's basically saying that he's more important than Georgia.

[–] Apepollo11@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm probably just going blind, but I can't see this moved LED light. The layout of the two images looks identical to me.

So far, the ONLY benefit I've seen about this phone is that of you go into the developer options, you can immediate jail break it.

[–] ButteryMonkey@piefed.social 69 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Obtaining root isn't jailbreaking, it’s just taking full control of your linux-based system :)

Jailbreaking is so called because you have to escape the walled garden (jail) of apple products, which is a challenge because they wrote their own code. Not a problem you really have with android to begin with. You don’t even need root for most of what you want to do with android.

Jailbreaking does not only refer to apple products. It just means overcoming software limitations set by the manufacturer. Rooting an android phone is also jailbreaking

[–] GamingChairModel@lemmy.world 21 points 1 week ago (2 children)

It just means overcoming software limitations set by the manufacturer.

With you so far.

Rooting an android phone is also jailbreaking

Not if the method to do so consists entirely of steps that the manufacturer allows and documents.

Depending on the manufacturer and model, unlockable bootloaders mean that custom software can be installed without a jail to break out of.

Trump supporters after getting scammed by the Nth time: "I still back Trump!"

[–] Thebeardedsinglemalt@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

After buying the cheap made in China hats...

After buying the cheap made in China flags...

After buying the shitty scam shoes...

After buying the gas-station quality knife...

After buying knockoff watch...

After buying preordering the phone...

After preordering the cOmMeMoRaTiVe gold and silver coins...

Them: "The next one will be legit!"

And they’ll even admit it. They’ll admit to how bad things are and still do it. Conservatives are requisite morons and no, being “educated” has nothing to do with being or not being a moron.

[–] BarbecueCowboy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 30 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Kinda sucks because I am legitimately interested in a gold HTC phone.

[–] KoboldCoterie@pawb.social 40 points 1 week ago (2 children)

This creates an interesting question.

How much cheaper than the base price would it have to be for you to willingly carry around a Trump branded phone that's so immediately recognizable that everyone you meet will know what you're using?

[–] BarbecueCowboy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 25 points 1 week ago

I'd like to say I'd stick to my principles here, but cases cost $10. Worst case I'm in a red state, wouldn't be proud of it, but a bit of maga camo would make my life easier.

[–] DickFiasco@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 week ago

You'd have to pay me to carry a Trump-branded phone. Like, pay me a lot. And it would have to be a recurring monthly fee.

[–] Dettweiler42@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 1 week ago (7 children)

What if you bought an HTC phone and printed a case with Gold TPU?

That's kinda crazy. HTC stopped making phones then kinda sorta started again but not in the US

Wait, wasn't HTC banned from US sales due to security concerns about Chinese devices?

[–] zikzak025@lemmy.world 39 points 1 week ago (2 children)

You're thinking of Huawei. HTC is a Taiwanese company that used to be a major player among Android OEMs, but their business dried up and they exited the global market. I didn't even know they were still making phones, to be honest.

You are correct. I had a ZUK phone at the time, it kicked ass. Miss that little thing...

Whats the price difference?

[–] monotremata@lemmy.ca 23 points 1 week ago (4 children)

And say what you will about the T1, but let’s give credit where it’s due. Trump Mobile aren’t gouging their fanbase…not yet anyway. Against all expectations, the T1 is actually well priced when compared to the equivalently specced 512GB U24 Pro, and the only things you give up are the 60W fast charging and your dignity.

That's from the iFixit article. I checked the website and they're currently listing it for $499, whereas Amazon has the U24 Pro 512gb (which I think is what they're saying is the equivalent?) for $699. So maybe it's actually cheaper? But I wouldn't buy either one at this point anyway. The U24 Pro released in July 2024 with the promise of two years of security updates, meaning it'll be out of support in a month. I can't imagine this "new" version will get any support at all.

Im guessing it comes preloaded with spyware anyway. I mean, they all do, but...
