Elon wants to make more money. One of the ways he can envision making more money is selling brain implants and the procedure to install them

Yep. Gotta know the difference between being a bit sore from growing strength vs pain of damaging your body.
They're just saying that it feels good to their confirmation bias.
I've seen flamethrower drones
Maybe buy the space and have them put up a photo of what's behind it?
In a non-nuclear apocalypse, I think they'd work wonderfully for a while. Some especially well built varieties might last long enough for people to figure out how to make new ones.
For a movie or in a book, I think they'd work best for a mad dash to safety immediately after the collapse of civilization. Whizzing past gridlocked cars on the way out of town, running out of charge half a mile short of the top of a mountain pass, recharging just enough on regen braking down the other side to make it to the destination for the night.
After a few years, any working electric bikes would be highly prized. Bikes drawing power from trailers of lead acid batteries and then diy batteries would be attempted to various degrees of success. Plain bicycles and walking would be the normal ways of getting wherever one might want to go.
Does a Steam deck have sim card capability?
Yeah, just a bit thicker so that the cameras can fit flush or slightly recessed into the back of the phone would be much better than that monstrosity.
So, a portable gaming device that happens to also make phone calls?
Oh wow! I forgot just how thick that thing was. That's just ridiculous!
The bump is what it takes to deliver the product that most buyers want. between the stats we already want and advertising influencing what we want, the best seller ends up being the phone with the bump.
If you don't like that, you're looking for some kind of limited edition for a specific market or cheap version of the latest and greatest.
They do still make a few flip phones if you want to go hardcore with your approach.
There was an extra thick phone with an unbelievably long lasting battery available a few years back. It didn't sell well enough to stay on the market.
So it's a, uh, flooded pine forest?
