Talk:3071: Decay Chain

... should have gone down to the 5S. That was really rock bottom... 172.70.114.36 01:53, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

My old SE was a real workhorse. Small enough to comfortably use in one hand, power button on the top so I don't have to worry about turning it off when gripping it, headphone jack, black background on the reboot screen, and twice as much storage as my current iphone 7. It kept working until the screen cracked and glass was peeling out of the screen, and several months beyond that, when the screen just went blank and refused to turn on. guess who (if you desire conversing | what i have done) 05:10, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

No april fools' comic? Sad. Onestay (talk) 01:58, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

Takes some time. Might still be one.--me, hi (talk) 02:18, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

Yeah, escape speed was late for 18 days, maybe the new interactive comic will be the same Aprilfoolsupdate! (talk) 05:06, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

Yes we could still hope for a treat. However, last time the election did not go as he wished he did not make any April fools' comics as he was quite Sad at the time, it was in 2017 see this trivia... It might be even worse this time. --Kynde (talk) 12:50, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

As anyone with liberal political views (which includes me), I think this is the worst it could've possibly gone. Might not get an april fools comic for the next four years. DollarStoreBa'al (talk) 13:03, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

I SERIOUSLY hope there is one.My opinion is that there is defineatly one.--me, hi (talk) 13:55, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

A quick search for "newest iPhone" gave me that 16 (various models) is the newest. That is, if it's newer than 15. 172.68.15.141 04:39, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

Most stars only produce Bell rotary phones, perhaps producing touch tone or even cordless phones briefly as they move off the main sequence. Massive stars can produce up to Nokia phones, but that's the final stage that stars can produce in their normal lifespan. All smartphones are produced in supernova. 172.69.246.149 05:32, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

I thought they were produced in a Movistar. 172.70.163.167 09:01, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

I miss an explanation of the iPhone models. Are these the only ones there are? In which order were they released? (Of course, I could google iPhone, but that would defeat the purpose of this page, wouldn’t it?) It feels strange that there is an iPhone 7, but no 8 and 9, then X (assuming X means 10), 11, 12 only with the addition “pro max” and so on. 172.70.43.67 06:26, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

I think there is an 8

There are more phones theorised to exist in nature, but they're mostly only found in high-energy colliders. 172.68.205.179 07:12, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

Note that the comic shows a decay chain not a table of nuclides, i.e. it only shows iPhones which occur during the decay of an iPhone 16 pro max. I also wonder why iPhone X apparently has Z=9, but according to List of iPhone models apparently no iPhone 9 was ever observed. --172.69.109.89 09:57, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

Before iPhone 11, Apple tended to bump the major number only every second year. They released the iPhones 8 and X the same year, then XS and XR the next year. So: ... 6, 6S, 7, (8 and X), (XS and XR), (11, 11 Pro, 11 Pro Max), ...

Maybe this references how especially for iPhones, new models are constantly made and old ones traded in or discarded? As if the new phones are actually the same and current phones are just getting worse? 162.158.167.10 07:18, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

Is this like how Randall's TI-85 decayed into a TI-83? 172.69.17.144 11:04, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

So, is there a neutronium analogue, in the "iPhone <no number> expert super plus pro max elite extra master genius limited edition"? 172.71.178.29 12:14, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

I wonder if there's a real element that has a similar decay chain. Bigyihsuan (talk) 13:08, 3 April 2025 (UTC)
