Light themes are objectively superior to dark themes, why do so many people still choose dark?

Don't give advice without following through you piece of shit. Thats how you hurt people.
Bromelain does work but it does this by partially liquefying your eye vitreous. It breaks up the floaters but it also eats away at important collagen complexes in your eye. Expect an early and serious posterior vitreous detachment when you get older since your vitreous will detach before it's supposed to and get your eyes checked often for signs of disease for the rest of your life.
Take the bromelain slow and in low amounts as it's effects are cumulative and permanent. When your floaters start flying around because your vitreous is liquid you should stop taking the bromelain. You probably want to stop just as they start to move slightly and accept a longer period where they disappear. Your floaters will be completely gone over the course of a decade, the first year will be a dramatic improvement. Enjoy your life for the next couple years living in a snow globe.

>why do so many people still choose dark?
because we're not retards who can't comprehend that they're not looking at a sheet of paper but at an active light source.

Dark, black-based themes
- prevent OLED burn-in
- use up to 60% less power on OLED's, meaning longer battery life on small phones and significant savings on large screens (48+ inch TV's draw hundreds of watts of power)
- use significantly less power on CRT's (we're talking a 30-50 watts difference here on your typical 15-19 incher, several terawatt hours of electricity were wasted on "muh paper analogy" by boomers and Xers in the 90's and 00's)
- indirectly save power by not requiring you to keep the lights turned on all the time just so your eyes won't burn
- make my eye floaters less visible
- don't give me and other photosensitive people headaches
- don't fuck with the circadian rhythm of pets

I’m new to iPhone does setting my battery capacity to 80 max really help or is this a psyop? Is 90 okay?
>>
>>107858261
I don't know about iPhones exactly, but using my Samsung at 80% or 85% cap for 2 years, it's now at 388 cycles and 93% health. A charge from 20 to 80 is less than 0.5 cycles, while even 15 to 100 is 0.98 cycles, or almost a full cycle.
For comparison a friend of mine who's had his exact same Samsung for 3 months longer than me, and charges to the max every time, is now at 1050+ cycles and 86% battery health.

>>107858261
it does help a bit. if you know you wont need the extra power you should set a max but if you need all the capacity you can get its not a big deal

I used apple when I was younger but I could barely do anything with it. It felt like having permanent child locks in place. I can actually download whatever I want on android, so I'm never going back to apple. Of course google's gonna be stupid and try to ruin APKs, but I have a feeling people will find a way to get around that soon enough. And even if not, android still has more freedom in that you can download mp3s/flacs without having to do a 20 step process to get itunes to recognize it first.

Does anyone know of any Android tablet that still comes with Android Auto enabled? Apparently Samsung stopped support for it.

Deepseek is pretty good but not the best anymore.
Qwen is the best small model (30b-a3b).
But I think GLM-4.7 is the best overall model now. It came up with a solution to a coding problem which was significantly better than what Deepseek or GPT-5 came up with.
Who knows, maybe Deepseek will release v4 and btfo everyone else, but it hasn't happened yet.
