High-end models do come in higher storage versions (256, 512, 1TB) but companies ask exorbitant amounts for, although it's the exact same phone.
They know that customers who cannot afford these models, are likely to afford a monthly fee to a #cloud #service & they know that most of these customers are unaware of #NAS storage, #servers etc.
#Planned #obsolescence comes in many forms. This is one of them.
People must be #educated.
This book was recommended by my therapist. I am so glad I found it. This author's life mirrors some of my own. I felt the heartbreak of breaking free from a broken family, and I felt the struggles of starting a higher education after almost no real schooling (thanks, mom). I had to earn my GED first, but close enough.
Honestly, it was so hard for me that it took a couple of years to read it. It has a special place on my bookshelf.

Baxter the Beaver is the only one in the Busy family to graduate from college. He became a structural engineer, dammed the family pond and started a white water rafting business.

@pixel @lumi then I guess the level of pain isn't high enough for them to make the switchover to something evidently better...
- I for once refuse to use garbage and have ceased any use of #Shitter!
Call me a "#BenevolentDictator" in that sense, but I refuse to obey #TechIlliterates demanding me to use #enshittified garbage...
- OFC that means people need to actually be #educated and get some basic #TechLiteracy into their brains to deprogram their #consumerist #lazyness....
And yes, it's hard not to become bitterly sarcastic about this issue...
- Either way, you both are correct! https://snug.moe/notes/9yqd1mthgk7pwkb5https://desu.social/@pixel/113217852779051941

#VP #KamalaHarris Shouldn’t Have To #Prove Her #Blackness—#JanetJackson’s Recent #Comments Show Why.
Harris is one of the most #decorated, #educated, #experienced, and #knowledgeable #candidates in the #presidentialrace. So why are folks still #bickering over the #color of her #skin?
I don't think it's a coincidence that the 7 key #SwingStates ALL have fewer college #educated voters than the national average. 
I guess no one ever told #Trump that #HannibleLecter is supposed to be #EDUCATED and #CULTURED?
Anytime he's referenced a REAL person who has been educated and cultured, he mocked them for it.
This apparent obsession is the craziest thing about him, and that says a lot.
#DeSantis thinks he can make #climateChange disappear if he mandates that #textbooks delete any mention of it. Once again I ask, why would any company hire people from #Florida? Businesses want smart, #educated employees who understand important issues, and can take them into account when creating solutions. Florida students are receiving a censored education without the topics that are relevant to the present and future.
Julia rejected the constraints of #Roman #Patriarchy, and paid the price. Also, note the parallels between later #RomanHistory and that of the #USA -- as the Roman Empire began restricting women's rights and enforcing "family values". And we all know what happened to the #RomanEmpire...
Notable #RomanWomen: #Julia
Julia was born in 39 BCE, the daughter of the first #RomanEmperor, #Augustus (#Octavian). As her “#guardian,” Augustus severely restricted Julia’s freedom, but as the daughter of the emperor, Augustus made sure Julia was well-#educated.
Augustus had arranged several marriages for Julia, all for political reasons. Julia resented this, and was known for having several lovers. Augustus ignored her behavior for a while, since she had born several heirs to the family line.
However, in 2 BCE, Julia was arrested for “#adultery and #treason,” and Augustus accused her of plotting against him, though at the time, Augustus has passed laws promoting “#FamilyValues”. Julia was exiled to a small island, where it is said she died of starvation.
The Origin of Student Debt:
Regan advisor warned that Free College would create a Dangerous Educated Proletariat
It’s important to understand how Americans came to #owe the current cumulative total of *more than $1.6 trillion* for higher education.
In 1970, Ronald Reagan was running for reelection as governor of California. He had first won in 1966 with confrontational rhetoric toward the University of California public college system and executed confrontational policies when in office. In May 1970, Reagan shut down all 28 UC and Cal State campuses in the midst of student protests against the Vietnam War and the U.S. bombing of Cambodia. On October 29, less than a week before the election, his education adviser #Roger A. #Freeman spoke at a press conference to defend him.
Freeman’s remarks were reported the next day in the San Francisco Chronicle under the headline “Professor Sees Peril in Education.”
According to the Chronicle article, Freeman said, “We are in #danger of producing an #educated #proletariat. … That’s dynamite! We have to be #selective on who we #allow [to go to college].”
“If not,” Freeman continued, “we will have a large number of highly trained and unemployed people.”
Freeman also said — taking a highly idiosyncratic perspective on the cause of fascism —“that’s what happened in Germany. I saw it happen.”
