Went to buy a new phone - You're dead - 10-06-2026
The only one I could afford was out of stock at pbtech and the warehouse was on fire, so ended up having to walk 2km to another warehouse
I know this isn't a great example, but sometimes I wonder if life really is a simulation and you start with a low luck stat or something. I say this as niggers are starving in Africa... Who knows tbh
Well, now I got the phone and I can go back to whatever it was I was doing. Which is zero

I bought a new phone too a few months ago. I had my previous one since 2016, but the jews made it so that no app can run on old Android systems.

cope, if u get an iphone it won't break dat easily, there's a term for dis, 'programmed obsolescence'.
so it's actually more commercially viable to get an expensive high quality item, plus it makes u feel less scummy and dehumanized from capitalism, simply get all da basic good stuff u deserve in ur life imo.

Chrome doesn't run but you can use Firefox instead. Ymusic instead of YouTube and old apk versions for apps etc. 4 gb of ram shud be more than enuf for regular stuff but ur probably streaming bbc porn in 4k with it so u won't be happy.

Reputable brands like Samsung have good entry level phones. You don't waste money on a flagship in 2026 just to browse bookism

Yes I felt like a complete piece of shit when I bought this Motorola g06. It was the cheapest phone in the store and the cashier looked at me with pity when I bought it
Capitalism reminds me every single day that I'm scum
