Yes, but wouldn't the fact that you intentionally set the phone up to wipe itself be enough to charge you for that? You've pretty much made a booby trap for the police.

A sedan shaped two door coupe is even better. The B pillars are behind you so you get better visibility.

They do need to be long but in a different way. ICE cars had longer hood/trunk overhangs, EVs have skateboard batteries with high belt lines (because the floor is thick) and very short front and rear overhangs with longer wheelbases.

I think it's the same thing as showing mechanical sympathy towards other tools and objects. I've always slightly judged people on how hard they shut doors or how gentle they are with their cars.

An LLM is a computer program, which isn't a human. You wouldn't excuse a calculator being occasionally wrong because humans sometimes get manual calculations wrong too.

Lint was only ever an issue with my Lightning connector iPhone. Unfortunately it wasn't the issue with the USB-C phones, the ports were just worn out.

They were an LG Nexus 5X, a OnePlus 3T and a Xiaomi Mi 8. The ports became loose on all of them over time, especially on the OnePlus where the cable would just fall out if you held the device upright, and in its final days the Xiaomi would

What obsession about making thin phones? iPhones are pretty thick and have been that way for years. The Air being an outlier, of course, but it's an intentionally thin phone in a lineup of thick and heavy ones.
