It's pretty awful but since it's centered it at least helps with it being kinda flush while laying on the desk. My fold 5 camera is so fucking big and off to the side of rocks like a mother anytime I have it like that.

I really don't get the absolute vitriol foldables get on Lemmy. I love my z fold 5 and the use cases are numerous. Need to fill in some personal data? Dual screen your password manager and easily go back and forth. Play games on your phone? Basically ever game I've seen scales beautifully to the inner screen's resolution. Want a second monitor? Put the thing in kickstand mode and have your YouTube video playing on the side while you do whatever else.

The three things I always hear against them are basically what you said: price, crease, and durability. The price is just kinda what it is; there's a lot of tech in here and it's expensive to make. So I totally get it if that's people's hang up.

The crease is a total non issue. What a lot of people do is hear about the crease, think about how bad it sounds, go to best buy to check it out, focus solely on the crease and nothing else, and say wow this awful. In reality though, the moment you use the inner screen the crease totally fades away, just how the notch did when apple first made it. You don't even feel it because you never have your fingers in the center of the screen, they're always in their respective halves.

Now for durability, I can only speak to my own experience. I've had the 3, 4, 5, and soon to be the 6. So that's roughly a year between each model and not the longest time for things to break. But in all of that time and all of those devices, I've never had a single issue. No cracked screens, not permanent marks on the inner screen, no broken hinges. If you go on reddit sure you'll probably find some complaints, but remember it's an Internet forum... A lot more people are going to complain about issues than exclaim how well their device has always worked.

In any case, highly recommend and you should definitely get one.

Interesting. Next game I play that has one I'll report back and show you how it went lmao

Every time I try to create anything with any of these "never before seen levels of customization" character creators I end up feeling like dr Frankenstein with the monsters I create. Basically every game I play it's just the default model with like heterochromia or something lol. I have no idea how some people create the works of art they do.

I took faulty to mean buggy, but that's really just semantics. Either would affect your view of the game pretty similarly.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

I mean you basically stated it as a matter of fact. You didn't go into any explanation of your thoughts and just dismissed the game as buggy and boring in a single sentence. On a post about how they potentially plagiarized pokemon that seems to be a little inflammatory.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

Why did you so casually dismiss it? Just because you don't like a game doesn't mean it's boring with a lot of faults. The game was at 20k players average on steam last month, putting it above valheim, bdo, rimworld, risk of rain 2. That doesn't really speak to me as a boring game.

I've loaded cash to my phone but still haven't actually used it yet. I'm going to carry the card as backup just in case but tbh how many times has your phone died on you just as you were boarding the teianor whatever? I feel like it's probably fine to just go full digital

Our watch has finally ended...

Tachij2kfriends, I saw the mihon dev post somewhere that tachij2k shouldn't be used anymore. Is there a reason for that? Everything is still working on my end, and until it doesn't I intend to just keep using tachij2k unless there's a good reason not to. I also read somewhere that the Dev for j2k said he was gonna make some changes, but I wasn't able to verify that... Anyone know anything more? Thanks

All of a sudden, Amazon search has popped up on the right click contextual menu for me. Haven't seen it before today. I can't find a way to remove it either; I'd prefer not to be reminded every time I try to copy something that I can buy Travis County district court on Amazon. I use the app a lot because of Amazon lockers as well as shopping at an Amazon fresh store. So deleting it (which would presumably remove it) really isn't a great choice for me.

Anyone else encountering this? Any solutions? Thanks for any help.

EDIT: After some great comments, I decided to reininstall/reboot and that seemed to have gotten rid of it. TBD if it comes back though. Would still like to know if it's possible to adjust that menu. Some apps I use are hidden behind the overflow menu, which would be cool if I could reorganize. Thanks!

SUPA EDIT: Did some more sleuthing and may have found an answer. As I commented here, try putting your app in deep sleep. While it kills all background activity, I think it also stops apps from displaying the problem app's menu button.

64/512GB LCD models are being phased out and are permanently on discount until sold out. Seems the 256GB LCD will remain while 512GB/1TB OLED are the other new SKUs. There is also an extremely limited limited edition 1 TB OLED that has a new color way, exclusive to the US and Canada.

Scroll down in the article a bit to see Seattle mentioned. Glad to see there's finally some support for this. Would love to ditch another card.
