2011 Mac Pro, which was discontinued in 2012, while support for the design was fully discontinued in 2013, when mac decided it would completely change everything and focus on the trash can design.
I get upgrading and whatever the fuck, but this was supposed to be an upgradeable machine, like a user built pc, but then they just fucking dumped support within 2 years, which should be fucking criminal considering its outrageous price.
I own an older flagship Android phone that is almost as good as anything that currently exists on the market. It even has a capacity that outperforms every single new phone I’ve looked at. The only issue is that now, after about 4 years, the battery only lasts me about a day. If I can replace my battery, I’ll end up likely keeping this phone for another two years. It’s still in perfect physical condition.
It’s true, you get microtransactions for everything these days. I pay a fee (technically I don’t get a discount) because I told my cell phone provider to stop sending me spam multiple times a week. I’d rather pay the couple bucks per month extra then have to deal with that bullshit.
