  • I’m learning Kotlin and Android Studio and for that I’m developing a very simple CRUD App. I used sonet 3.5 and was impressed when it developed the XML file, mainactivity, added internet access permits and wrote the restful API in PHP for XAMPP. It compiled at the first try, but for the life of me I can’t find why the restful API keeps returning a 405 error. And I’m a seasoned programmer in C, C++, phyton and XAMPP! It was, at the same time, impressive and extremely frustrating.


  • I had a Samsung dishwasher that I dumped after just 4 years because it kept breaking every 6 to 12 months. I also have a fridge that is 8 years old that cost me an arm and a leg from Samsung and I need to keep fixing it every couple of years and have given up on fixing the ice maker. Also just dispossessed of a washing machine last month from, you guessed, Samsung because the mother board fried and they don’t sell it anymore, it was 6 years old. I still have a curved LED 85" TV that some how broke in the corner, for fucks sake, it’s made of aluminum! Not only that, the smart TV menus are infected with ads everywhere. Why the hell did that happen? It was a very expensive TV when I bought it. I have a few Hisense TVs and they last years and are ridiculously cheap. Samsung has a beautiful design but all their products are just plain crap with planned obsolescence. Never again will I buy a Samsung home appliance.
