I’ve had no problems with durability beyond the internal factory screen protector peeling up and needing replacement twice in 3 years. I know thats anecdotal and I case my phones, but I had no durability issues and the hinge felt solid after 3 years, I just felt the battery wasnt up to par anymore, the trade I credit was high, and a phone with moving parts probably won’t last forever.
But I had no real complaints on durability.
This is probably the number one reason I’d be giddy about it.
Our species needs to learn some humility.
If they didn’t come in peace. We’re boned, and everyone’s problems are over.
If they did, at some point they’re still going to need to use corrective action on our arrogant monkey asses.
Because all human history.
As an adult, it’s the biggest plothole in Trek to me. Species so far ahead of us taking our lead only a couple hundred years after we took a break bombing each other and managed to cobble together a single, shitty warp drive a Vulcan toddler could probably improve the design of at a casual glance. If there was a consortium of species, at our stage we’d correctly need to beg to get provisional Jr. membership after 1,000 years of probationary observation.
As someone on their second foldable, fold 3 now fold 6, the crease is truly, I promise you, a non issue. Unless you’re doing detained drawing with the S-pen, not my use case, it has no meaningful effect on the experience. For single person consumption, you almost have to consciously try to position it in a way that’s visible when watching a video, for example.
I’d actually miss the crease, as it gives the screen a kind of magic book-esque quality. The biggest problem with foldables in my experience is the odd aspect ratio universal to all of them, something a tri fold design may actually mitigate.
Why does it always need to be about best or most popular?
Maybe this tastes good in its own way, hits the spot in its own way, and that doesn’t diminish Indian/Thai/etc curry in any way.
Then again, I do favor Thai curry over Indian curry, which I’ve been told makes me a monster no one should listen to…
I think such protections have to happen BEFORE the market capitalists are able to use their immense hoards of power, that’s what capital is at scale, to capture their own governments and regulators that were supposed to act as a firewall protecting regular citizens from them, as the market capitalists have in the United States for almost half a century.
Once that happens. Good fucking luck. Greed doesn’t let go of what it acquires.
I’d rather have the ugly truth than pretty lies.
We eat the same stuff we’re made out of?!
Impossibru!
Justice would be them dying and the many societies people like them destroyed for self-enrichment that lived in equilibrium with nature, like the Native Americans, thriving again.
I agree with you. Justice isn’t on the table.
Be excellent to eachother, dolphin or kangaroo people!
Humans aren’t saying that, our habitat is in response to our actions, as translated by scientist’s measurements.
We can stop. We should stop. We won’t stop.
If that means you want to call our planet an eco-terrorist, that’s actually kind of funny. This isn’t about humans killing humans. This is about Humans attacking our only habitat as we rely on it for every breath we take and every bite we take, and our habitat responding predictably to our actions.
Eco-fascism would be putting a gun against people’s head and telling them to stop destroying our only habitat.
Acknowledging we’re destroying our only habitat isn’t eco-fascism, it’s just acceptance of the situation.
It’s not about justice. It’s about homeostasis. The guy and possibly his kids will be fine in their luxury climate bunkers as the world grows more bleak and they bark orders remotely until there’s no one left alive or dumb enough to keep listening.
The thing is though, what we’ve done and are doing right now will take millions of years to heal. Nothing to Earth’s 3.8 billion year old story of life, but effectively eternity to our monkey brains. I just don’t see our species putting down our shovel and living within our ecological means when that would mean necessary decline in our quality of life and intentional population control over time. We were warned for a century. We are feeling the effects. Scientists are noting new runaway effects conservative estimates didn’t account for. We need to stop 30 years ago, and we won’t even stop today.
I don’t consider it justice, I consider it wholesale refusal as a species to live within our ecological means. We just keep digging, and the consequences, the physics, don’t care why.
I don’t think there’s a specific one yet, though insults towards such people abound.
Its certainly an extention of misanthropy though.
Capitalism: “Growth or die!”
Earth: I mean… If that’s how it’s gotta be, you little assholes🤷👋🔥
It’s kind of gallows hilarious that for all the world’s religions worshipping ridiculous campfire ghost stories, we have a creator, we have a remarkable macro-organism mother consisting of millions of species, her story of hosting life going back 3.8 billion years, most living in homeostasis with their ecosystem.
But to our actual, not fucking ridiculous works of lazy fiction creator, Earth, we literally choose to treat her like our property to loot, rape, and pillage thoughtlessly, and continue to act as a cancer upon her eyes wide open. We as a species are so fucking weird, and not the good kind.
To be fair, there’s a lot of GREAT shows that needed a few episodes to a season to really find themselves.
Rick and Morty took half a season, Supernatural was a slog for over a season until it started leaning into having fun instead of just brooding, the Doctor Who Reboot’s production values are distracting for the first season, on and on.
Honestly, the best shows seem to need to go on a bit of a vision quest early on.
Capitalist pigboys: You will not own your games, we will only permit you broken, live service, microtransaction hell garbage, and you will buy it because we’ve consumed the competition.
Gamers: 🖕 Imma go mod Skyrim for the 73rd time.
Thanks, removed it.
It’s my favorite show still on air.
The joke is straightforward. 2 minute cold open of a quick adventure becoming a massive ordeal breaking them, making Rick say they need a vacation which the episode is about.
Capitalists:
The capitalists do trickle down onto the rest of America, it just isn’t prosperity. Even worse, we export our sociopathic market capitalist behavior, encouraging other nations to treat their citizenry like disposable capital batteries for their elites… and our multinational oligarch leeches.
I feel shame for what we’re doing to the world every damn day, spreading market capitalist hypergreed and tools of mass death like a fucking virus.
