Haven't preordered a game in at least 15 years. I preordered this one. I want that juicy September 1st playtime. Haven't been this excited for a game since I don't know when.

It's definitely worth talking about and it makes me more than mildly infuriated because this affects me directly (as someone who administers anesthesia). But I think I'm just getting heavy political agenda vibes verses something that's ACTUALLY mildly infuriating that other people can relate to. I'm being overly critical I'm sure. But for example - go to this community's equivalent subreddit. There's a post where someone bought diving goggles and the retailer placed price tag stickers on the LENSES of the goggles, leaving a gooey residue. That's definitely mildly infuriating and fitting for the sub. I just feel this post is low effort political outrage.

Does this really belong in this community? Is this REALLY mildlyinfuriating?

Magic Runes, laddie.

To contrast some of the comments here from people who've clearly never used one of these foldables outside of a display case, I've had my Fold 3 (the larger folding tablet style) for two years. I came from the Note and S lines, Windows Phone, and have bounced between iPhones. My Fold 3 is in great shape and has survived many falls. It's definitely durable enough for me. I take care of it, but I get that some people don't desire to take care of their devices and expect them to be exceedingly durable. Never had anything under the screen. Never take it to the beach unless it's in a sealed ziplock. I take care not to put it in dusty environments or let sawdust or shavings get into it (hobbies).

Unfolded, it's better than any other phone out there. Viewing videos enlarged or widescreen is great depending on video and application. During normal usage, the crease is not noticable enough to be a distraction unless viewed from a severe angle (think the person sitting next to you). Unfolded scrolling of Lemmy, the internet, and reading is a better experience than anything else out there - bar none, no argument. The screen is just huge and viewing websites in mobile or desktop is fantastic. It makes the web actually useable from a mobile device. I never use my Galaxy Tab anymore. Samsung does a pretty good job software-wise adapting apps to fit the foldable aspect ratio if a guveb app doesn't officially support it. More apps are supporting foldables every day.

I would agree with the sentiment that the Z Flip line likely has a more gimmicky purpose. At least the Fold line functions as a tablet and is a decent phone folded up. At least, that is my experience with a Z Flip 3 before swapping for a Fold 3. But I'll be buying foldables exclusively from here on out. After using the Fold 3 for two years, I can say it's folding screen is definitely NOT a gimmick.

That just sounds like free advertising. No one would actually connect the Sunoco name to a forest fire...but Sunoco would get their company name repeated millions of times per day on web and TV network traffic free of charge. No thanks.

Dad loved this photo. It's his favorite plane. He always has something like this as his PC desktop background.

Am I the only one on mobile that tapped the comment button in the screenshot at least once? Sync had me HOOKED.

Yeah we need to leave that in the past and not repeat a fiasco like that. The community could have handled that much better. I'm just thankful for the support from lj.

This is very unexpected but I'm so ready to show support! I'll be financially donating and supporting! ljdawson, it at your own pace and I'll be happy with anything you can bring to the community! I was so pleased with Sync for Reddit every step of the way.

Same - dot One to dot World for similar reasons.

I don't feel a need to stay up to date, no. But reading about what those idiots think doesn't hurt my ego or ruin my day. I just like to have an idea of what the "enemy" is thinking. I don't want to live in an echo chamber. The sub isn't even THAT bad compared to what I was expecting. They've got some gross posts, don't get me wrong. But it's not NEARLY bad enough to warrant defederating. Most of the posted content is moderate-right. Defederating is silly in this case.
