Plus, you can set the speed to 1.5x and catch up to live, if you want.

I guess with all things, depends on the financial position of the customer.

If you’re stretching yourself to get any phone, then yeah, diminishing returns for forking out $800+ for a flagship.

That being said I’ve owned multiple phones in each price category, and can say that the best phones are unfortunately among the most expensive.

Speaking of “paying 10% for the privilege”, one of the things irked me was my dad’s insistence that tithes had to be monetary. Per him, volunteer work didn’t count.

I was roped into running the computer, or doing the sound, for all 5 services Saturday + Sunday, plus practice before hand. 16 hour commitment twice a month.

My day job was only 20 hours/wk back then, so in terms of time, my volunteer work was ~30% of all my work. Yet my dad still insisted I payed 10% of the taxed cash I received…

That was one of many “cuts” in my “death by 1000” for being religious.

Actually, in 2022 there were 94m barrels produced globally per day. So this is 2%. Statistically, not insignificant. Hopefully it’ll continue to grow rapidly.
