Screen durability and the distracting crease are the two biggest problems with foldables, so they are making a phone where a third of the screen is always unprotected, added an additional crease, and sharpened the radius of both creases. Hard pass for me (and most people), but this is more of a statement piece for their manufacturing and engineering prowess than a mass market product. Hopefully the advances they make will improve single fold devices.
I’m honestly surprised by this. They want him to self destruct on live television. If they make fun of him like they’ve been doing in every press release it will probably work.
This will require Harris to still command the room and come across as professional and presidential though, which might be harder than it sounds when Trump can tell as many outrageous lies as he wants. I think she can do it, but it’s a risk.
It was nowhere near as bad as the reviews suggest. Manny Jacinto was honestly great. The Stranger’s helmet design with the metal cables looking like a deranged smile was cool, as was his ability to temporarily disable lightsabers. The new king fu element to the fight scenes was interesting.

Why is a website restricted to certain browsers? This isn’t 2005.
I’m super excited for the mobile version but also worried about my future productivity
They definitely deserve this. Still, I hope their fab business works out because we need another high end fab (especially a US based one). It’s exorbitantly expensive, too much for anyone but an established player to enter the market.
What else about P9 is underwhelming? Genuinely curious, not trying to start an argument. I’ll be upgrading from a pixel 6, so maybe that’s why it all sounds fine to me. Ultrasonic fingerprint scanner was my biggest request and it sounds like that’s in.
This one seems the least believable to me, but I admit I have almost no experience shooting guns. Maybe you won’t be super accurate, but it would work if you were going for suppressing fire against multiple bad guys while trying to get to cover or something.
Make it powerful enough for the UI to be fast and smooth and I’ll upgrade in a heartbeat.
I can’t tell if this is a good idea or a bad idea. Probably a bad idea at that price point with those specs, but this seems like a much more usable and useful form factor than a fully head mounted system when you factor in the weight of the thing on your head and the input method. Like, I might actually be able to do work on this thing unlike an apple vision pro.
I know this isn’t the point of the post, but that hot honey rub pisses me off. I love hot honey and was excited to try it but this flavor is gross, basically just sugary with minimal heat. It’s also inexplicably a grainy rub and not a sauce despite hot honey classically being sauce-like in consistency. You could just toss your wings in granulated sugar and you wouldn’t be far off from this. Major disappointment.
So I have some experience with this and have a few things I want to tell you:
Consider a dedicated sleep study. If you have sleep apnea, medication will not fix your problem and some medications may actually make it worse.
Xanax (an anxiety medication) and Ambien (a sleep medication) are very similar drugs with respect to their mechanism of action. Xanax binds to a specific group of receptors to cause anxiolytic effects and happens to also make you sleepy. Ambien binds to a subset of those same receptors to make you sleepy, but don’t have the strong anxiety reducing effect. If Xanax works for you, Ambien should theoretically have a similar effect. In practice, it doesn’t tend to work as well because anxiety can keep you awake. If that has been your experience with Ambien, think about taking some steps to address anxiety even if you don’t think it’s that bad. Yoga, counseling, meditation, whatever. There are also guided breathing audio sessions designed to put you to sleep in apps like Fitbit and calm that may be helpful.
You can also supplement a prescription sleep aid with something non prescription, which is what I do. I take Ambien, and to keep my dose low I supplement with melatonin, tryptophan, and valerian root when I need an extra kick into sleepiness. I’ve heard CBD is also quite effective for this. Magnesium reportedly also helps with restful sleep, but get a sleep formulation because magnesium in the wrong form causes diarrhea.
Don’t underestimate sleep hygiene. For a long time I had the attitude of “I have real sleep problems, basic stuff like cutting back caffeine is not going to help.” The thing is, when taken together, that kind of stuff actually can help tremendously. I scheduled a month where I went hardcore on sleep hygiene. Strict caffeine limits, no late caffeine or exercise, don’t do anything on your bed but sleep and sex, wake up at the same early time every day even when you don’t have to, limit screens before, bed… I mean ALL of it. I found that it actually really helped. In combination with medication it might be a life saver. Might be worth doing your own experiment with it.
Good luck!
Incompatible taste in music. My taste is the benchmark they have to meet and I will not compromise, obviously.
A lot of telling us how good AI is and how Google is the best at it. I got a little excited when they said Gemini is going to change how we use our phones and I thought they might be announcing some big AI-forward redesign of Android, but it was just 3 things they’ve already launched, haha.
Context aware Gemini looks neat though.
I really want it to be good, but I have my doubts after season 1. That being said, this teaser seems surprisingly coherent. I know who the bad guy is, I know who the good guys are, and I know generally why they are all fighting. That’s already a pretty big improvement.
That shot of galadriel, elrond, and those other people in the fog gave off a bit of a “fellowship” vibe.
This article is the most I’ve heard about Foamstars since it was announced.
Top sku iPad pros with the keyboard case cost more than some MacBooks and people try and use them like MacBooks, which is crazy to me given the severe limitations of iPadOS compared to macOS.
You can order that tablet with Ubuntu, mint, Manjaro, zorin, elementary, etc. There’s gotta be some kind of driver support to build on, no?
This looks bad, but the last time Jared Hess and Jack Black teamed up we got Nacho Libre, which was good.
