I’m Not Going Back to My iPhone
- mullingitover 14y ago"I readily acknowledge the absurdity of all this: a portfolio of devices, swimming around various pockets, with deliberately hobbled and enabled in various ways, all to fit my mental whims." We're in agreement there at least. All this work just because he's lacking the self-control to regulate his gadget usage without some byzantine self-imposed restrictions, it's kinda sad.

- readme 14y agoI just bought two dumb phones so I could cancel my verizon data plans. I also cancelled our SMS plan. 60 x 12 + 10 x 2 x 12-30=$930 savings per year. I'm almost always using wifi, so the 3g was useless. I'm also a mobile developer. But honestly, I don't care! I don't need a data plan to use a smartphone, and I'm done letting the phone company rip me off. I wish more people would follow suit and do what I'm doing. The price of service is absurd. $930 a year going into my stock portfolio instead. Sorry verizon.
