Kennedy went on to say that anyone who comes into the Lucasfilm fold to create a new “Star Wars” project is shown Lucas’ 1977 movie because it’s “the gold standard” of storytelling.

"Watch this, it's the gold standard of storytelling. Now make the complete opposite lol"

Interesting, this has been on my watchlist for a while. Given the tone of the films being listed, it sounds like I might need to plan a good time for it.

It's no different to any other screen in that respect. Just stop dropping your phone, or if you really can't do that use a case and a screen protector.

I doubt that, to be honest. People will look for any excuse to avoid spending more on the basis of ethics. The usual one with Fairphone is "well they removed the headphone jack so therefore the entire operation is clearly an advanced greenwashing scheme".

Not to mention the very legitimate excuse that Fairphone is still yet to support many countries outside of Europe. It is too big a risk for many when every generation to date has experienced isolated technical issues that require direct support from Fairphone to resolve.

They're also a "menace" because many people actively feed them. It's the same as ducks following people around expecting bread.

Yeah that was my impression from the trailer as well. It looked pretty forgettable.

There are none on the level of Fairphone. Sony has seen fairly consistent support for its devices over the years and has retained features like the headphone jack and SD card slot, so may be a decent alternative to look into.

Yeah that was the joke. I guess it hit too close to home for some lol
