Reposted by PsylokAnna Funk @annafunk.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Really curious about the UX discussions that happen at websites that have an "Add to Cart" button that wiggle every few seconds.

Psylok @giorgiopretto.com · 08/09/2026In Italy you need to pay if helicopter/ambulance need to come, and it was not a very serious emergency and it is your fault. e.g. you get lost/stuck cause you don't know what you are doing, ignore rules, weather forecast, etc. Unfortunately always more common in recent years. 010

Psylok @giorgiopretto.com · 19/08/2026For me the last 2 Pixels, 7a and 4, just barely lasted the 2 years and 1 months to break right outside of warranty. Main reason why I left them, together with the price range. The 5y warranty on the hardware of Fairphone is really good. 000
