Why don't we just skip 6G and just go straight to 7G

[–] Denalduh@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago (2 children)

If they're going to skip anything, it's going to be 8.. Because 7, 8, 9!

[–] ridethisbike@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Nah dude... That's why they skipped 9 because 7 ate it. 9 was never a viable option

[–] Hule@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

I mean, you might have a point there.

If seven ate nine, but you skip eight, it's all OK! Seven nine.

But.. But.. Seven ate nine.

You ate eight!

Seven nine!

Waaaahhh!

They'll skip 9 as that seems to be Kryptonite to tech. Both Microsoft and Apple decided to skip straight from 8 to 10 with Windows and iPhone respectively.
