Pretty much. I really struggle here to limit how much I have to read about politics, "tankies," fascists/communists, nazis, defederation, etc. It's everywhere. For fuck's sake at least I felt insulated from political shit on Reddit for the most part. Yes, I know everyone thinks the USA sucks, landlords are bad, the rich should be shaken down, etc. Maybe that's true! But I can't listen to this shit anymore and it's pushing me away from this site.

I love Lemmy, but I really struggle with the content here. Of course things are a little bare, but I have been able to find some really good stuff. My engagement is a lot higher here than on Reddit. However I find the litany of anti-work and political/left/right posts insufferable. They're everywhere here. At least on Reddit I felt like I could insulate myself reasonably well from political stuff. c/mildlyinfuriating is an example of this. At least half of the posts I come across are blatantly political or are anti-work. I get it, work sucks and you don't want to work and rich people/landlords bad. R/mildlyinfurating is a much better sub than ours is a community, imo. But I can't surround myself with this kind of Lemmy content every day because it just angers me and I didn't go to reddit to be angry every day. I have found myself drifting back to reddit for 60% of my usage. I hope this changes. I've tried to sub to different communities as well to limit how much I have to read about the latest communists and nazis and racists/fascists and tankies and all that Lemmy bullshit. Clearly I need to do a better job.

Anytime Matt Ferrell asks a question, the answer is almost always "no." I feel like he leaves out all of the downsides of the technologies he showcases such that you only hear about the promising aspects.

Disclaimer: I'll admit I didn't watch this video of his yet. Planning on watching after work.

Haven't preordered a game in at least 15 years. I preordered this one. I want that juicy September 1st playtime. Haven't been this excited for a game since I don't know when.

It's definitely worth talking about and it makes me more than mildly infuriated because this affects me directly (as someone who administers anesthesia). But I think I'm just getting heavy political agenda vibes verses something that's ACTUALLY mildly infuriating that other people can relate to. I'm being overly critical I'm sure. But for example - go to this community's equivalent subreddit. There's a post where someone bought diving goggles and the retailer placed price tag stickers on the LENSES of the goggles, leaving a gooey residue. That's definitely mildly infuriating and fitting for the sub. I just feel this post is low effort political outrage.

Does this really belong in this community? Is this REALLY mildlyinfuriating?

Magic Runes, laddie.

To contrast some of the comments here from people who've clearly never used one of these foldables outside of a display case, I've had my Fold 3 (the larger folding tablet style) for two years. I came from the Note and S lines, Windows Phone, and have bounced between iPhones. My Fold 3 is in great shape and has survived many falls. It's definitely durable enough for me. I take care of it, but I get that some people don't desire to take care of their devices and expect them to be exceedingly durable. Never had anything under the screen. Never take it to the beach unless it's in a sealed ziplock. I take care not to put it in dusty environments or let sawdust or shavings get into it (hobbies).

Unfolded, it's better than any other phone out there. Viewing videos enlarged or widescreen is great depending on video and application. During normal usage, the crease is not noticable enough to be a distraction unless viewed from a severe angle (think the person sitting next to you). Unfolded scrolling of Lemmy, the internet, and reading is a better experience than anything else out there - bar none, no argument. The screen is just huge and viewing websites in mobile or desktop is fantastic. It makes the web actually useable from a mobile device. I never use my Galaxy Tab anymore. Samsung does a pretty good job software-wise adapting apps to fit the foldable aspect ratio if a guveb app doesn't officially support it. More apps are supporting foldables every day.

I would agree with the sentiment that the Z Flip line likely has a more gimmicky purpose. At least the Fold line functions as a tablet and is a decent phone folded up. At least, that is my experience with a Z Flip 3 before swapping for a Fold 3. But I'll be buying foldables exclusively from here on out. After using the Fold 3 for two years, I can say it's folding screen is definitely NOT a gimmick.

That just sounds like free advertising. No one would actually connect the Sunoco name to a forest fire...but Sunoco would get their company name repeated millions of times per day on web and TV network traffic free of charge. No thanks.

Dad loved this photo. It's his favorite plane. He always has something like this as his PC desktop background.

Saw Sound of Freedom. Pretty impressive for such a small budget. Glad it didn't show anything graphic, we all know what happens. First 2hr+ movie I've seen in a while where I didn't find myself wondering "how much longer?" Awesome watch.

Am I the only one on mobile that tapped the comment button in the screenshot at least once? Sync had me HOOKED.

Virus with Jamie Lee Curtis and Donald Sutherland scared the shit out of me when I was young. Seeing mangled humans turned into cyborgs on that ship lost at sea was terrifying.

Awesome username. Chiming in with my subscription!

Jeez I read shower SHITTERS and came to laugh at all of the weirdos. Thankfully I don't have to write off humanity as early as usual this morning.

I would recommend waiting to play until the Phantom Liberty expansion releases. The devs have been clear that many basic aspects of the game are getting reworked in the expansion. So in some ways the game will play differently when the expansion releases. Especially the police and wanted system. Personally, I bought it on sale and am waiting to play for the first time when Phantom Liberty releases in September.

That looks awesome! Do you plan on 3D printing an enclosure or making something out of wood or another material?

I appreciate the ESP32 builds here as well. I appreciate the walkthrough and love to hear how people do some of these things.

This comment needs to be higher. Interesting phenomenon and great video.
