probably just not worth the additional logistics

you get the discount + you can reinstall it yourself/install a different distro + it shows the general market how much of the cost is due to a Windows license and other OS alternatives, creating more informed consumers

i see it as a benefit

I think JBL did it and they're a well established brand

I have a flip phone for a while now. A black line did form on the crease after ~6 months, but was replaced under warranty. No further problems since. I don't use a case either and am rather clumsy.

The biggest upside to the design is reclaimed pocket space.

Everyone has accepted carrying a giant slab that takes up one pocket at all times. Manufacturers that attempt to make reasonable sized phones quickly abandon the idea because people don't purchase them. Everyone says they'd love having a small phone, then buy something else when it's time to spend money. Flip phones are the closest thing to a compromise we'll get anymore.

Given that phones are cameras that just so happen to make phone calls and the industry continuously innovate backwards (headphone jack, micro sd expandable storage, removable batteries, physical sim trays, and potentially USB-C if Apple has their way), foldable screens are the first genuine innovation/progression.

I spent way too much time hunting down a Pilot Automac and finally got it. being stuck with anything here would be such a stark downgrade

I thought of this on my way to work today. I really don't understand how so many people looked at a model y and thought "yeah. i want to drive a fucking egg more than anything else."

Also I miss being able to afford eggs. I want to make muffins again :(

Jaws and his son: bite-size

his hands stuck to his head and he asking for help. obviously.

this feels like an intro to a sick pico-8 game. well done!

Whatever Jvcki Wai posted on July 7 - I'm still waiting for that to change my life.

This is disappointing to see - especially since I like a few of their products.

I'm not sure how it is in London, but there's a strong government push to get people to go back to office (the city). Since politics is every politicians side hustle, and a lot of them own commercial real estate that's been tanking post pandemic, I feel like they are forcing companies to bring people back to re-inflate the real estate value.

Since companies can't outright say it's the government, they have to come up with excuses.

The worst part is I don't know what's worse: if I'm wrong or if I'm right :(
