Something tells me you haven’t drank your daily verification can of mtn dew

I can’t do it, I don’t want to sound like I’m from the South.

I will never forgive Sir Sanford Fleming for inventing time zones and putting the east coast at UTC -5:00 and making me stay up past midnight to watch sports

Alright post the Murray’s

I fucking love foldables and think everyone should have one. I truly believe they are the next step in phone technology and cannot wait for when they solve the crease “problem” so people can stop complaining about it. Also getting the price to $999 is pretty key too. Or apple jumping on board.

Some points you can’t really refute are cost and repairability. Yes, they’re expensive and yes, they’re quite difficult to repair, there’s no getting around that. One thing you don’t have to worry about is the screen though. I’m not sure what people have told you about it being “better,” because at this point most phone screens are pretty incredible; great brightness, contrast, oled, 120hz. Where foldables do shine is content consumption. I use my phone A LOT. And trust me when I say that the experience is pretty unparalleled. Multitasking, large video streams, gaming, browsing Reddit and now Lemmy were all absolutely incredible experiences and I can never go back to a slab phone. I bought both the 14 pro max and the pixel 7 pro to try to come back but it’s just not the same at all.

And the crease thing 100% disappears after 1 hour of using it. A lot of people hear about the crease, decide they don’t like it, try to have a hands on, see the crease and focus solely on it the whole time saying to themselves, I hate the crease, why would anyone buy this. It’s analogous to when apple did the notch; tech people were like what the fuck is apple doing, why are they making phones so ugly, I use that part of the screen, Samsung made mocking ads about it. And now every phone on the market has some variant of it because people learned it’s really not a big deal. Your fingers never go in the middle of the screen to feel it and as long as you have your phone on like 10% brightness it will wash out the crease from being apparent if you look at it dead on.

Trust, next time you’re at best buy check out Google or Samsung’s offerings. The phones are incredible.

Based. I bet everyone at Peterson is glad as hell they don’t have to move to the sweltering south

Idk that makes sense for like story driven games where things have a definite ending. For a fighting game I don’t really care if they keep pumping them out since it’s not like detracting from anything major. People just want to play as like slippy or geno or something. People will just keep playing the good ones, like how melee has survived.

If this is real fuck you Nintendo, so bull shit for not just making it oled. There’s a $50 difference right now between the regular and oled variant which could 100% just be worked into the new switch pricing. You just know they’re releasing the oled model 1-3 years after launch so people buy again.

Yeah I’m confused by this too. Everyone I’ve talked to has just expressed concern in regards to who’s running the military, the direction its internal politics are going, sexual assault issues. I’ve never met anyone who thinks it couldn’t execute its mission properly. As a veteran, trust me people, there are some white-hot shit people at the tip of the spear and running all the way down it too. There’s shit bags for sure but I’m pretty confident in it meeting most expectations.

If you say so

Well now you do

I think that’s in mostly budget phones because it’s a way for Samsung to subsidize the price. I’ve had multiple flagship Samsung phones and the fold 3/4 and have never seen that installed or had Facebook just randomly pop up. Now if you just want to take a stand against Facebook in general then yeah I feel you

System shock remake… Pretty incredible. Never played 1 but beat 2 a few years ago and it’s awesome playing an old school game again with a modern flair. Hoping to finish before baldurs gate comes out.

Back when Google was fun… I miss gingerbread and ice cream sandwich

I mean that makes sense. Samsung doesn’t bill it’s front screen as a full phone, it’s supposed to be just a window for quick info at a glance. It’s probably more just Google hasn’t made its app compatible with the flip’s cover screen. In any case at this point the screen on the flip 5 is actually a decent size so it should be able to run any app like the razor.

Vietnamese Dong 🥵

Lindsey Horan put on a fucking show

I got a head sized burrito at chipotle yesterday that took two minutes. For me the issue is the peice. Total was $11 for a chicken burrito and chips and salsa. Not terrible imo but I miss $6.90 burritos. Buffalo wild wings is rough though.

Very good. Got into space easily, set up a few nice passes and had a few very nice goals that were called off due to offsides. He looks great right now.
