Date: December 1st, 2025 1:29 PM Author: bright marketing idea sound barrier It is absolutely a joke. If you do a deep dive into our economy vs. China you'll see that they are primarily looking at things like factories, housing units, infrastructure and ours is mainly fart apps, "services" (people who tell fart apps how to get more subscribers) and upgrades on phones and similarly inane shit. Our valuations are just dumb ("oooh, this fart app is worth $4.3 billion because it leverages AI to fart!") while in China they will say "this building is worth $30 million" because, that's what it is worth. Maybe it is only worth $28 million irl and many will say "omg, inflating valuation!" Meanwhile, the $4.3 billion fart app is worth almost nothing.

LMFAO that's still way too consoomeristic. I cannot fathom changing phones any more frequently than 3 years. I'm shooting for 5 years on my current phone. I'd probably go even longer if I were an iPhone user; Apple tends to provide security updates for longer than Android OEMs |

Date: November 30th, 2025 9:28 PM Author: Spectacular chocolate business firm The only excuse I can think of for the figure being that low is that it is probably inclusive of situations where people replace phones due to unforseen circumstances - phones that get lost, stolen, broken, malfunction.
29 months still feels like a ridiculous figure even if unplanned replacement is a big factor in driving it down. |

'While squeezing as much life out of your device as possible may save money in the short run, especially amid widespread fears about the strength of the consumer and job market, it might cost the economy in the long run, especially when device hoarding occurs at the level of corporations."
