- Potapych, hi! Can I come see you?
- So, Hare, if it’s a work matter, come to work tomorrow, but keep in mind that my consultations are expensive.
- Well, what if it’s personal?
- Well, as for personal matters, grab a liter of mead, and something for yourself. We'll decide. Just come early, because mead is sold until 10 p.m., and what if it drags on?
- I'd rather take two at once so I don't have to run!
- No matter how much you take, you still have to go twice! In short, come!
Evening came.
- Potapych, it's me.
- Come in, put it on the table. Undress. Complain.
- Yes-s-s, you are a model of brevity today.
- And you thought. The longer we chat, the later we'll get to the pleasant second part. Complain!
- Well, Potapych! I have a smartphone. I've already received a letter from Google twice about an update that needs to be installed urgently, but they still haven't sent it to me. What's the problem?
- Well, why a miracle? Only two years. Quite a decent smartphone.
- That's what you think, but the manufacturer thinks differently. Look. Three years have passed since this model came out. Even a little more. And almost four years since this OS version came out.
- So what? It's a perfectly decent smartphone.
- That's what you think. Google thinks completely differently. They finland mobile database updates for two years from the moment the first model on this OS comes out. TWO YEARS! Then they stop releasing.
- So little?
— Moreover, the manufacturer of your smartphone, S, releases updates only a year and a half after the release of the first smartphone on this version of the OS, that is, your smartphone should have been replaced at least two years ago! Today, it is almost impossible to update it.
- Well, they told me it was possible!
- Who?
