In the article it also points out that this means you don’t have to waste paper, which is a plus, assuming they last.

- Comment on I miss when you could get a flagship phone that could fit in your hand 1 week ago:
It’sa silly little thing, but manages to get like 5 days standby or 2-3 days light use.

Not that it’s everyday practical, but you can definitely get small phones. There are definitely lesser known names out there that make phones in all sizes.

That movie would have been a lot less interesting, I feel.

Yeah, you can build a 1440p native/4k upscale build for like $1000 if not less. I don’t understand what the demand for these cards is. What games benefit?
- Comment on Anyone ever look at pictures of themselves as a child and feel no connection to them? 2 weeks ago:
That’s because that operation is no longer you. You really don’t have anything in common with them any more. Just a healthy sign that you’ve grown beyond who you used to be and are able to reflect and realize that.

I can imagine all 3 people who actually use more than Edge or Steam on Windows is rejoicing.
- Comment on Younger cannabis users have reduced brain function, finds largest study yet 3 weeks ago:
I will say that I tend to use quite a bit and The withdraw can sometimes be annoying. Nowhere near as tough as other addictions, I’m sure, but the one that always gets me is the loss of appetite and nausea with mild insomnia for a couple days. After I’m over that hump, though, it’s right back to normal. I don’t even get a ‘hankering’ for weed. I just sometimes wish I had some on the initial withdraw days just to help with sleeping and eating, not even because I want the high.
It’s pretty incredible we have a drug that you can use that much and bounce back out so quickly (assuming you’re old enough).

Sure, for storage. I’m more concerned about first party sources for high quality rips. The only thing left will be streaming rips, which just don’t compare on a proper display, especially once HDR gets involved.
It’s like if they just stopped selling CDs and all you could find were YouTube rips anymore.

Having watched some of my favorites on Netflix, even with their 4K offering, the compression can kill a scene. Netflix has no incentive to provide the 0.1% of viewers who care a better quality stream, so they don’t.

This is truly disappointing. The end of a physical media era and nothing on the horizon to replace it.
- Comment on Copilot PCs represent only a tiny fraction of laptop sales — compatible laptops accounted for less than 10% of total shipments in 3Q24 2 months ago:
Almost like nobody wants that garbage. The average consumer doesn’t know what it is and doesn’t need it. Anyone smart enough to know what it is knows to stay away.

It’s not necessarily cheap or convenient, but building a physical collection of Blu-Rays (or DVDs if quality isn’t priority) is something that can’t be taken away.
Add on a compatible Blu-Ray drive to your computer and you can even rip the digital files yourself. It’s taken me a few years, but now I never have to worry if my favorite movie is available when I want to show a friend. It also makes them easy to loan.

Not a series, but the movie Your Name is one of my favorite stories ever.
