My work better provide me a phone if they want me to use it for work.

If you have a screen protector you have to turn on screen protector mode to get the fingerprint sensor to work at any sort of acceptable level. Even then it is not nearly as good as without a screen protector.

Creating a GUI for changing a few lines of text in a file feels like a lot of extra work for no benefit for most developers.

They fail to mention that when GoT started in 2011, HBO wasn't available at all without a cable TV subscription, so people who had already dropped cable didn't have any other choice. HBO streaming without cable didn't become available until 2015.

So, just buy property and sell it for an inflated value in the near future. Repeat forever. Sounds like an amazing plan. What reason could someone possibly have for not doing this? Can anyone think of one?

Also, the idea that real estate is required to go up in value no matter what is sort of insane.

Do you really need it when you could use FOSS instead?

This is largely a design decision forcing you to tailor your build to be at least good enough at all content. You can't be optimal for every type of content with the click of a few buttons.

On a large phone (so almost all of them) gesturing is much easier than reaching for a button. When I first switched it was slightly awkward because of muscle memory, but after a while gestures felt much better.

They will sell access to that 18 years of content. They don't want it able to be scraped in any way.

Very good chance it will be crypto related.
