Man, these foldable phones never appealed to me nor even made sense. I can never justify paying so much money for something like this. They’re just made weird and impractical. Their aspect ratio is weird on the inside and outside. The creese is something I can never get over. The risk of the screen cracking in the middle from folding and unfolding so much is another thing. You have to baby these things. I just can’t, and I think they’re just a gimmicks. Still rocking my Galaxy note 20 ultra from 2020. The thing is still running like a champ. Zero issues. Let’s all face it, phones have plateaued and companies are trying to excite people with “something new” and it’s not working like they expected it to.
But we are cool, though. We are sending 100 billion to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan. We can manage with a $100 for groceries for the whole month, but how will poor Israel be able to murder children if we stop funding them???
Edit: glad to know that I’m being downvoted by those who support Israel murdering civilians and children in Palestine. Please keep the downvotes coming. Fucking unbelievable. Downvotes don’t mean shit on Lemmy, but it’s good to see people’s true colors.
I get the fast and the battery life and all that, but by principle, I just can never own one. I also never buy any windows laptop that is not upgradeable. I keep them for a while and want to be able to upgrade them. That’s why I’ve been thinking of getting a framework laptop.
I guess that’s reasonable. I personally can’t see myself ever getting one for the reasons I’ve mentioned. But hey, everyone does what makes them happy.
Not to talk shit about Mac users, but in this day and age with how advanced technology is, you have to be insane to buy a Mac. What kills it for me is that nothing is upgradeable on the damn thing, like zero. If your internal drive dies, you’re SOL. And if I got this correctly, they now have the bios OS on the same drive, the Internal. So, you won’t even be able to get to your bios. You won’t be able to install the OS on external hard drive in case you needed to. This is insane and I can never understand why anyone would buy into this shit.
Same here, that’s why I have 3 different drives in my PC, 512GB nvme ssd for root, 1TB SATA SSD for home, and 2 TB SATA SSD just for games/emulation and steam
Just your regular 27" 4k monitor. If I set it to 200%, everything is fine, but things are huge. I have to have it on 175%, and that makes the font very blurry. Also, any window decorations that are not default plasma get blurry, too. I’ve already posted about it in the kde instance and zamunda (a KDE dev) said it was fixed in plasma 6. So, I guess I’ll just wait it out.
