Many kids would like to be a teacher on Monday, an astronaut on Tuesday, a veterinarian on Wednesday, ....

But I guess here the demographic is a little older than my example so it might not apply

I just read the 13th amendment for the first time and one thing is unclear. Is it slavery or involuntary servitude that is allowed as punishment (or both?).

Because forced labor as a punishment to repay society seems morally ok (to me) whereas slavery (and thus, ownership of people) still seems wrong even as a punishment

That's a valid point.

Also is there's a USB3 controller at all in the phone to connect the camera inside the phone? Or does the camera talk on a different bus on the SoC?

I don't use data on the USB port very often and when I do it's always to make an access point over USB so the USB2.0 bandwidth is enough for my use.

I wonder if people really have a use for USB3.

Apart from making phone more expensive, I don't see a real need for me

Oh yeah probably but it might absorb some or even more thant it reflects

Depends on what frequency your "mirror" mirrors.

A traditional one reflects higher frequency of electromagnetic rays (visible light) than what you need for wifi (in the microwave frequencies)

Why do they capitalize every word in that tweet?

The comment you are replying to is probably more about finding a balance between comfort and luxury than an exact guide on what limit to apply to your spending. At least that's how I take it.

USB sticks are not very reliable and can become totally unreadable randomly. I hope you at least have a few backups of it

You know what? I'll think about it
