I had it replaced once, perhaps 15 months after purchasing. The problem was not with the screen, but the screen protector was separating down the seam. Possibly due to my profession in the medical field, which occasionally sees me and my phone exposed to high intensity UV light. Apparently this shrinks the material. Modern phones aren't something you can so easily work on yourself. I had it replaced by an authorized repair shop in my area. Apparently they had a recall on either the whole model or my production run, because they had a one time replacement deal for $250. This got me a new internal screen, battery, and possibly hinge?
I love having a foldable. It makes reading, writing, and media consumption so much more enjoyable. But still fits in the pocket unlike a tablet. I don't have any particular loyalty to Samsung, but it's the best foldable I've found so far.
Fold 5. Battery is getting annoying, so decent odds I pick up the 8 when it drops in the summer. I miss the days when you could just pop a battery out. It's expensive but the larger screen is amazing and I'll probably never go back. I'm not married to having a Samsung foldable specifically, but the only really competitive options are banned in the US.
I prefer a spoon, but I've found that for most cakes a spoon isn't long enough to take a proper vertical bite
Where I live there's this crazy new obsession with car washes. Like, 3 brand new ones being built on the same street. I get that they became way more profitable when they figured out the subscription model thing, but I feel like so many is unsustainable.
Me and a relative jointly host and manage a server. Over the years we've slowly allowed in a handful of trusted friends and family. By now we probably have 20ish connected. Most use it as a supplement to their main streaming services, primarily used for exclusive content like the star wars shows. Some, like those of us hosting, have cancelled every streaming service and use it exclusively.
Mullvad VPN. $5 a month for 5 concurrent high speed connections. No fake sales, no BS.
Music streaming services are close. As I understand it the artists don't get a great deal, but as a consumer ~$12/m is on the high end of reasonable for unlimited access to high quality music. And unlike with television streaming services there's very little exclusivity bullshit. You can listen to most anything most anywhere.
Not universally. I live in Alabama and the privately owned power company is very corrupt. We have some of the highest power bills in the US, with the biggest difference being not cost but profit margins. Water in my county is fairly priced IMO, but I've heard other counties aren't so lucky.
I live in the south. We don't get much snow at all. I think I was thirteen when I saw my first (and so far last) white Christmas. It was only the second my parents had seen in their life. That was pretty cool.
A) A new phone comes out with a feature I'm dying to have, and I happen to have some fun money tucked away
B) My old phone is degraded to the point of noticeably affecting my experience
C (most common)) A little of A, a little of B, and I get a great trade in or upgrade deal

Tear some holes in it, sprinkle in nuts, and leave in your backyard. Congratulations: you now have a rodent hotel!
