White/peach is the universally accepted default for drawn or animated people in general, not emojis. Simpsons yellow is what they use for white people. It's still using white person color for the default.

Most white people expect peach color/white to be the universally accepted default and everyone should just not think about it because they themselves rarely have to think about representation.

White people in majority white countries rarely experience lack of representation so they don't think its a big deal.

If medium brown was the default lots of people would be losing their minds with rage and y'all know it.

I never thought about cultural sub-groups in America like that. Interesting article.

TV, movie and book discussion communities aren't very active around here.

I would give it a few episodes to see if it's worth sticking around for.

FYI putting it on MGM + is a sure fire way of not getting me watch.

I'm not subscribing to a service just to watch 1 or 2 shows.

I hope we get more than 10 episodes for season 2.

These things aren't deal-breakers they're conveniences for me. It's easy to transfer stuff to a new phone with an SD card, if your old phones screen dies (has happened to me twice over the years) you can still easily move your stuff over to the new phone.

My last phone only had 64gb of storage. I always have some audio-books and podcasts on my phone for when I go to very rural areas with bad reception like the lake. Up until the phone I bought this year with 256gb I would have been always cramped for space without an SD card.

Why use an adapter if you don't have to, that's just one more thing to go wrong or get in the way. I had a pixel for a while and I did use an adapter for my headphones. They were awkwardly placed with the adapter, if the usb port broke because of the headphone adapter being awkwardly placed I couldn't charge the phone. If I broke a headphone jack I'm just inconvenienced.

I don't understand why someone being content using older technology bothers you so much that you want them to defend their choices.

Even if the $800-$1000 phones had those features I wouldn't spend that much on a phone. If only the flagships had those features I'd go without. Thy're nice to have but not must haves.

Do you also get annoyed with people who play retro games or listen to vinyl records? Do you wonder why people drive classic cars or wear analog watches?

There used to be a lot of rumors that some fast food chains used soy or meat from some other animal to stretch the beef to be able sell the burgers so cheap.

The chains advertising 100% beef are probably still reacting to these rumors.

If you have 512gb of storage I think you likely paid more for your phone than I have for my last 3 phones combined going back 5 or 6 years.

Decent wired earbuds are $20. Bluetooth earbuds in that price range are terrible and uncomfortable.

Some of us can't or won't spend lots of money on disposable tech like phones.

You consider yourself a power user, I'm just a guy who needs a phone to phone, text and do a few internet tasks like casual games for work downtime.

I don't have anything against people who like having the latest and greatest tech but I don't have that urge or see the need in some cases. I generally don't like being pushed into spending more money with no appreciable gain in functionality.

Taking sand to the beach.

That's a great story, it's nice hearing about people being treated well by famous people. Thanks for sharing.
