This looks bad, but the last time Jared Hess and Jack Black teamed up we got Nacho Libre, which was good.

Screen durability and the distracting crease are the two biggest problems with foldables, so they are making a phone where a third of the screen is always unprotected, added an additional crease, and sharpened the radius of both creases. Hard pass for me (and most people), but this is more of a statement piece for their manufacturing and engineering prowess than a mass market product. Hopefully the advances they make will improve single fold devices.

He was in a tough situation. We need to remember the extent of right wing vitriol and hate. Anyone who speaks out against Trump gets death threats. Their concerts would have had protestors outside. Continuing the tour could have been a safety risk for their fans. I'm not saying cancelling everything was the right move, but it's not as simple as "dick riding for Donald Trump."

Right? There's no way it costs more money to run Tinder than Netflix, and Netflix is profitable at like $15 per month.

I don't mind the concept of dating apps, but nearly all of the useful features are paywalled. I also wouldn't mind paying a few bucks for a service I find useful, but the prices are outrageous.

The hackers sent the documents to Politico from an AOL.com email address with the name "Robert" lmao

Why is a website restricted to certain browsers? This isn't 2005.

I'm super excited for the mobile version but also worried about my future productivity

They definitely deserve this. Still, I hope their fab business works out because we need another high end fab (especially a US based one). It's exorbitantly expensive, too much for anyone but an established player to enter the market.

What else about P9 is underwhelming? Genuinely curious, not trying to start an argument. I'll be upgrading from a pixel 6, so maybe that's why it all sounds fine to me. Ultrasonic fingerprint scanner was my biggest request and it sounds like that's in.
