Larger form factors also means more room for batteries. Granted, larger screens require them, but I think my point stands. I’ve been on the Samsung Note since like the Note 4 (I think). The larger amount of screen real estate is genuinely a welcome upgrade and that’s the whole point of the foldables… it’s the next evolution of the “phablet.”

Seriously. Straight dudes are missing TF out.

I mean, in the 1950’s, the planes with all the fancy food and service were basically full first class flights… to return to that weed have to have single class/first class flights and the prices to match.

Same where I’m at. 😞

They know what they did.

Awe… little Burrito. So cute.

I remember watching her first interview with Tucker Carlson and thinking “oh thank god she’s a black hole for charisma.” She’s just a void of intellect and nuance collapsing in on itself… of course Ron DeSantis likes her.

For anyone unfamiliar, “Science Fiction and Futurism with Isaac Arthur” is a prolific YouTube channel. He’s cranked out dozens (if not hundreds) of hours about everything from building archologies on the moon, colonizing the surface of the sun, to settling what’s left at the end of the universe. What that guy does is genuinely a public service and he’s gotten awards for his work.

An Acquaintance: “Oh my goodness and they said that people could actually be living on Mars soon! Isn’t that just neat-o?”

Me: Having watched enough hours of “Science Fiction and Futurism with Isaac Arthur” to qualify for a doctorate

Me: “Yep. Sure is super neat-o.”

I mean, I could add to it…

• Pay reparations to victims of Jim Crow/Segregation and descendants of those bound by the practice of Chattle Slavery.
• Nationalize the telecom corporations. Use the profits to fund a Bell Laboratories type research institute as well as public college departments in the relevant fields.
• Nationalize the freight railroads. Use the profits to fund a high quality bus system in rural areas, an “Interstate-style” 110-125 mph regional/commuter passenger rail system nationwide, and develop 155-200+ mph HSR corridors between appropriate city pairs.
• Initiate planning for metro/light rail systems in every city with a population of 250k or higher.
• End the Embargo on Cuba and fully normalize relations. Shutter and remove the facilities at Guantanamo Bay; return the land to the Cuban government and pay reparation for it’s theft.
• End NATO while helping the EU organize it’s own native unified defense force. Form a new treaty with the EU for common defense.
• Forgive all debt the US holds from co-called “third world” nations.
• Remove all “NeoLiberal” stipulations and restrictions the IMF has placed on so-called “third world” nations.
• Pass a federal law ending so-called “Right to Work” at the state level and triple the NLRB’s budget.
• End the funding of public schools through local property tax and replace it with a Federal tax on corporations.
• Bust up Meta, Microsoft, Amazon, and Alphabet into their viable constituent parts.
• Formally recognize the nation of Palestine at the UN.
• Join the International Criminal Court.

For like half a second my brain thought this was a meme comparing the fictional megacorps Zorg Industries from “The Fifth Element” and the Weyland-Yutani Corporation from the “Alien” franchise.

I mean… that’s putting a lot of faith in the dishwasher to work properly every single time you do it. I don’t know if I’ve got enough trust in the 1995 beige “landlord special” under my counter right now.

We’ve got to stop size-shaming almonds.

Perfection.

My Nephew: “What’s a fax machine?”

Me: “A landline network of low quality printers people used to use to do invoices and file for divorce.”

My Nephew: “Landline?”

They can fucking try.

My work switched to a double ply… instantly the toilets got clogged. GM blamed it on women’s sanitary products. I have half a mind to lead our own little protracted people’s war against him until the plumbing gets fixed.

Lol, same.

Lol. I read the header as “Lemmy World PsyOp” and was like “well, that’s disappointing,” lol.

Thanks for keeping us up dated!
