Daughter called from a borrowed phone because her Samsung Galaxy S9 bricked itself during a routine update. So she gets to drive an hour to the nearest place that can re-flash her Android ROM.

Yes, apparently that shit still happens in Android-land.

Now don't get me wrong, I despise IOS since IOS 9. And Apple's jack-booted-thugs killing the ability to install older versions of IOS that actually worked. Especially because Apple software quality has gone right into the shitter.

But I guess Apple can get away with it as long as Google/Android continues to suck so bad.
