I tried everything for my Poco F1 in 2023, some Qualcomm tools, trying to go into EDL mode, using some weird firehose files with the MI flash tool. I read every fucking XDA thread. I even brought that phone to a shady repair service station near me, nothing worked.

The only option I did not use were some sus af indian Telegram channels that sold that service for 20 bucks.

Don’t tell me the phone is always recoverable, because sometimes it is fucking not.

After they raised the price to 3€ during inflation I never bought that product again. Also !buyeuropean@feddit.uk !

The Germans call them “flying mosquitos”

Looking at the vote ratio, this is a genius shitpost. Well done OP

This is so embarrassing. There is a great German word for it, “Fremdscham”

I apologize if my answers have offended anybody, that was clearly not my intention. I just tried to underline my point I have extensively explained in my other answers. To be honest, I find your communication pretty rude. I think you might exagerate here and I don’t see where you try to add understanding to this discussion, or “teach me communication skills” how you call it.

I asked “compared to the US” as this is an article about the US condemning the human rights situation in UK

No you are understanding me wrong. I asked “compared to the US” as this is an article about the US condemning the human rights situation in UK. I think it is dangerous to hop on the train while Shady Vance is meeting with Nigel Farage, it is clear that this is a politically motivated move. People should talk about this right now to support the right extremists in the UK.

I am in no way saying the situation in UK is good, I just think we should be careful when to give attention to what because of who is saying something.

As this arcticle is about the US administration condemning the human rights situation in the UK I think it is the metric that makes the most sense here.

Saying “yeah the US administration may be fascists and are conducting this assessment to push right extreme parties in Europe, but that doesn’t matter because they are right” is a very dangerous position in my opinion.

Edit: Oh what a coincidence https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/13/world/europe/jd-vance-nigel-farage-reform-uk.html

Compared to the US? You are insane if you believe that.

They did the same with Germany. The US is not able to conduct independent evaluations anymore, as the authorities are more and more driven my political decisions. This makes the content of the evaluations irrelevant, their only purpose now is to use them as political instruments.

Because companies fucked up consoles. All we ever wanted was split screen games with our friends on the couch. Not a single-player-only Need for Speed for 70€ I can only play with an online subscription with random people over the internet.

They made consoles more and more similar to computers over the years, instead of focusing on the social character consoles used to have.

I searched the internet an found and alternative platform to the Threadiverse where this was discussed (something starting with R, I don’t remember).

So actually I don’t know shit about Finland, but it seemed like the only explanation yet that makes sense. But if you’re Finnish I guess you know a lot more about how it works up there!

I think schools and universities in Finland are giving out free computers with Linux installed for a few years now.
