🍳 Good morning! I bought a friend Ottolenghi’s Test Kitchen cookbook for their birthday, but sadly they already got it! So, now I have an AutoLenghi Test Kitchen Cookbook … (A grilled veg with mustard and Parmesan dressing ideas looked great for an upcoming BBQ!)
Samsung’s old-old-but-new
Is it with the old ones at Samsung and with those old ones?
S9 end of life:
- First, Samsung’s Galaxy S9 and S9 Plus have come to the end of their lives to support their software.
- The four-year run of software updates seems to have come to an end after the S9 series was removed from Samsung’s Security Update page, having previously returned to their quarterly update.
- Samsung has done some good and some bad here: The S9 duo wasn’t there to get support for so long, but continuing support was a good decision.
- That said, it’s still a bit of a shame that using the S9 will become a bit of a risk, a risk that will increase over time.
- A decent option going forward is trade-ins: My colleague Admya has mentioned that Samsung is offering a lucrative trade-in discount of Galaxy 270 to $ 300 when buying the Galaxy S22 Ultra. It’s a pretty neat deal for phones so old. “
- I can see that the average price of Swappa is around $ 160 or more for S9, a little more for S9 Plus.
S20 FE 2022 Version: Back again?
- For the older part of this story, Samsung has announced the Galaxy S20 FE 2022 একই the same phone it announced in 2020, but now cheaper. And in 2022.
- It’s still the same device: 6.5-inch 120Hz OLED, Snapdragon 865 chipset, 6GB / 128GB, 4,500mAh battery, and triple rear camera system (12MP main, 12MP ultraviolet, 8MP 3x telephoto).
- Now the strategy is that Samsung has so far only launched it in Korea, and the only difference is that the price has come down to $ 575, about $ 165 discount from the original.
- It is possible that Samsung will release it more widely if it is well picked up.
- But … I don’t understand it as safe. The AKG headset included from the original release is missing, so you get fewer accessories.
- And to get a four year update from this point on, there is no confirmation that it puts the S20 FE 2022 version on a different software schedule.
- Maybe in Korea it makes sense, maybe Samsung is just trying to flush its stock.

Chart Tuesday
What a great chart: Nail price going back to 1695:
Tristan Rainer / Android Authority
- Nails were made by hand in the story, and were not cheap! The nails were precious.
- The US National Bureau of Economic Research has studied the nails by looking at the history of manufacturing: Prices fall with the adoption of large-scale production – until World War II, viz.
- Nail productivity gains are not on the scale of computing, for example, but still significant: nails once accounted for about 0.4% of total U.S. GDP, or today on the scale of air travel.
