breakerfall,

Kinda surprised Mishaal is still using twitter extensively. Seems like he could easily have his own site and rake in some ad money.

breakerfall,

This is the same company that, by default, allocates some of your storage space as “RAM.”

breakerfall,

Direct device-to-device connection, for one, though Matrix appears to be much more mature at this point.

breakerfall,

ProtonVPN has a “stealth” protocol. Does anyone know if that breaks through?

breakerfall,

Anyone remember what the Ultra sub options were on the old version?

breakerfall,

Damn. I was pretty sure I had lifetime, and I would have at that price. Highly unlikely I’ll be purchasing lifetime again.

breakerfall,

I have a Surface Duo 1 and I really think they got the form factor right, as opposed to the folding glass one-big-screen types. The SD also folds backwards so you don’t need (to pay for) three screens. Also, most of the functionality of the Pixel Fold is shown off as multitasking two apps side by side, which is exactly the power user use case the SD was made for.

IMO two-screen side-by-side folders could be down to $1K at this point if they didn’t all employ fragile bending glass and superfluous outer displays.

Also, I like the idea of a Flip… again, without a big outer display. Give me e-ink on the outside or something for the clock and message previews – I’ll open the phone if I need to anyway.

breakerfall,

I couldn’t wrap my head around paying premium for what’s basically the last gen processor. Pixel 8 will have Tensor 3. The Fold should have been priced accordingly. They used to purposely use the previous gen processors in the Nexus line to keep prices down.

breakerfall,

cool. can you give me some examples of how one might use this?

Put him RIC in the Toro Rosso Roro Tosso Bed Rull next year.

breakerfall,

Good point... on the outside, the track construction should make it disadvantageous enough to stay on the tarmac.

breakerfall,

Anyone else notice the Minnesota Wild (hockey) hat in the stands?

breakerfall,

Best, as far as specs? Gonna be the Asus Zenfone 10 (officially announcing 6/29 but most of the specs have been leaked) and the Sony Xperia 1 V (already available outside the US).

Both will have Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and plenty of memory and storage. The lower models of Xperia (5 and 10) will also have headphone jacks but somewhat lesser specs.

breakerfall,

I considered posting about the previous gen Zenfone and Xperia, but the 8G1 gets hot and throttles frequently from what I've read.

Good point about the pixels. I put Graphene on my 5 and it runs nicely.

breakerfall,

I'll believe it when I see it. Took them 8 versions to do something that's in AOSP?

Oh hey I was wondering what the actual fuck your talking about.

What niche phone features would appeal to you?

I went through my late teens as the initial smart phone boom was happening. I had a Motorola q that could get TV channels and had a keyboard. I had the enV that flipped open. And many androids/blackberries that I loved for their unique form factor and functionality....

breakerfall,

Modular everything. I really wanted Project Ara to come to market.

breakerfall,

I hear ya.

I'd even take the Moto Z series back at this point.

breakerfall,

Search around a bit and if you don't find one, create one!

breakerfall,

The solo and then the riff toward the end are great.
