    It actually became more frequent when sms became free in my country around 2010 / when people switched to services instead of sms.
    But it has also become easier to block messages on most services so it keeps the balance.
    The age doesn’t matter. If anything, they usually become creepier the older the guy is.

    Also I think you have a bit of a warped view on what an os update entails for Android devices, maybe because your only comparison is the iPad.

    iPads need updates because it’s the only way they can receive bug fixes and new features. On android even system apps can be updated via the play store, and new features can be added to your device via play services without even restarting, you’ll just get a random info one day that says “your device can now do this or that”. (Unless you go without play service ofc).

    OS updates for the last few years have just been pretty forgettable stuff (like I can’t even remember one single feature they added with Android 14, I think it was just new clock fonts?)

    I don’t think any manufacturer offers more than 5 years os updates. Normally you will still get security updates afterwards but I don’t know if there is any way to see how long exactly beforehand.
    If you install lineage or some other rom it would not matter anyways what the official support is. But someone needs to take the time to port it to your device, so the more popular of a device you choose the more likely it is to get ports longer.

    Generally I’d recommend looking at what hardware of a popular device fits your needs (size, budget, pen etc) and then just looking at xda to see what roms are available and how easy the flashing process is.

    I don’t understand what you mean by saying you don’t want the software bricked in 5 years. You mean bricking while flashing a rom? Usually that’s easy to recover. I don’t think I’ve heard of many people bricking a device unrecoverably lately.





  • Let’s say both the guy and girl make the same amount of money and are both good at and enjoy cooking and cleaning.

    Would it be wrong for a guy to want the girl to give equal contribution financially to the relationship if he’s also willing and capable of contributing equally to domestic duties?

    If both people worked exactly the same amount of time, with the same commute etc. and also did exactly the same amount of the same chores, that would be the definition of fair. But that is highly unlikely, and very often what one person perceives as doing half of the chores actually isn’t but they do not notice because their partner is picking up the slack. Real life is about finding the balance that works for both people involved. A true half half is not possible.

    In this same scenario, would it be wrong for him to expect her to cook and clean if he’s expected to handle the financial aspects of the relationship?

    If he works eg 8-9 hours it would be fair if she also works 8-9 hours in the household. But again, in real life household work, especially if you have younger kids, doesn’t end at 5 o’clock. Coming home at 5oclock after 8 hours of work but expecting your partner to work about 10+ hours or even more if you have kids until the late hours of the evening is not fair in the slightest.
