I just don’t get how it doesn’t get destroyed by random space shit. I get space is infinitely empty but it’s also infinitely full too, right…

Yeah I don’t get anything either. I normally always just try to cancel when my subscription is up and they offer me an even lower deal than normal, like $1 per month or something.
iCarly? I didn’t end up watching it but I think they like drink and stuff
no u
Pretty similar to you on mobile, gboard. I used auto correct too though. Desktop I’m not really much faster than this, maybe like 85 on a good day.
State’s rights!
Same. I bought two at a local Asian grocer near me without knowing what it was, just to try. After forcing myself to finish the first couldn’t bring myself to start the second.
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.
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
Back when Google was fun… I miss gingerbread and ice cream sandwich
Almost the same for me. Used Firefox since it launched, then when I saw chrome had that thing where you could pull tabs into windows it blew my mind and made the swap. Didn’t come back to Firefox until COVID though when I took the time to degoogle my life
Western Washington is probably the most beautiful part of the US
The main channel is mostly still kind of an internet history. Concordia was an obvious outlier though. But yeah all of his other stuff is basically just him creating whatever he wants with his friends. Humor for me is kinda hit or miss.
Same, although my attempts at the other ones were pretty brief. I like liftoff a lot because it has the swipe anywhere to go back gesture, which I love.
It really blows my mind to hear opinions like this because my viewpoint is so overwhelmingly the opposite. To me it seems like the clear next step; we have phones in our pockets and tablets in our homes. What if we could combine them to get the best of both worlds? The biggest issues I’ve heard are durability and price; both things that plagued early smart phones. You dropped your iphone from 2 inches or let it touch your keys for two seconds and the screen is ruined. The iphone 1 was $500, post subsidized, something unheard of back then.
Both of those are solved now and I’m sure in time foldables will do it as well. It might just end up taking apple hopping on board to really bring it to the mainstream like how they’re going to do with their VR set.
Can I ask why you think it’s such a gimmick?
The reason why there’s a large influx of users is because the reddit thing finally kicked over so it makes sense that a large amount of comments about it. But I don’t mind those as much as these meta posts complaining about people talking about reddit because it just puts a magnifying glass on everything that is worse here than on Reddit. Of course there’s less interaction, the userbase on Reddit dwarfs Lemmy. Reddit was like this 15 years ago or however long it was. Either you understand why people have migrated here and accept that there’s less of a community or here you stick with reddit. Stop complaining it’s not a 1:1 copy.
But aren’t there like a bunch of little rocks from like asteroids and stuff? That’s what I never got even for launches from earth, why isn’t everything up there just getting peppered nonstop from debris. I guess space is really just that empty
