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 :(

but Jack Black was forced to tell us via Warner Brothers that we yearn for the mines as mere children

but the good thing is I think you only need to beat the mines once

I'm really excited for the mine upgrades. I have to finish Bully though before I can spin up the update

Glad I found this community just scrolling through all!

I played Fields of Mistria late last year and I thoroughly enjoyed my time. For being in early access, I only found one bug: the game played at a slower speed after a few minutes until I paused and unpaused it.

Worked flawlessly on the steam deck though. Really excited to see the next update and the finished product someday.

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

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 :(

The key takeaway of the article is she was so unemployable when she started that she had to apply everywhere and be willing to put in extra effort and accept lesser pay to get started. Then after that, she got lucky.

That's usually how it goes - especially for those who don't have any defining traits.
