While the details are different, wasn’t this a fairly unpopular film called Get Hard with Will Ferrell and Kevin Hart a year or two ago? If I remember the premise correctly, wasn’t Hart’s character also not an actual expert on prison life, with shenanigans to follow?

Right... except that you can buy things at the gas station today that were luxury items just 10 years ago.  So... like, maybe things won’t always be this way?  When USBc is the ubiquitous standard and not the luxury elite option, I think you’ll see it in your local petroleum retailer.

Seeing as I can right now buy AirPods for around ~$100, these are not a budget alternative. They are an equivalent or peer, but not budget version.

I mean, they are technically more than phones, what with the whole nexus of engagement with the entirety of the human race being possible on a piece of glass a quarter inch thick, but yes, it is a bit much in price.

Same!

I appreciate that you concede that medical bills are outside the control of an individual.

Absolutely. My electricity and water, auto paid. My cable, phone, and credit cards? Well, I’d like to pay them, but maybe eating comes first, and they can wait on me to sort out whether I’m still alive to pay what they want.
