Have you tried Sony's Xperia 5 series? They are fairly compact and the 21:9 ratio makes it nice and slim.

That's understandable, but then you aren't exactly the target audience for flagship phones. I do love good low/midrange phones tho, and there's plenty of those for you to choose from it seems.

My point was: There's plenty of nerds who can be(come) just as corrupt or selfish as any politician. They also don't necessarily work harder.

I would like some more tech literacy in politics though.

Dude, wtf, no? I'm not even American.

I've just seen plenty of stories about nerds who seem like "good guys" only to see them turn out to be selfish assholes the moment they become successful and start making big money. Especially with tech start-ups.

Although I gotta say, I'd love more nerds in office. The way most (boomer) politicians talk about technology is cringe and often completely without understanding.

Was the personal attack necessary btw? Yeesh...

Bold of you to assume there's no socio- or psychopaths among nerds. Just look at the tech industry C-suite.

Dude, that is so easy to say when you weren't actually there, in a completely different time.

The flow of information was completely different back then too. You have the worlds information at your fingertips, these people hardly new what happened outside of their town and even then it was delayed and through very few sources.

It's not that your anger is completely unjustified, but damn dude... Your anger is directed at a bunch of dead suckers most of whom were probably not large land owners and politicians. Direct it at their leaders, or better, the suckers very much alive, currently buying MAGA hats.

Couldn't agree more. Imagine telling the Dutch how to do bikes as a non-Dutch. :p

"Boomer" has basically become slang for things like conservative, old-fashioned, technologically illiterate, homophobic, racist, etc.

Depends on the context, but barely anyone I know uses the word literally anymore.
