No thanks, those were annoying and spammy on reddit and I think they're generally a nuisance.

The pricing is also egregious considering I can make a far better cup at home for less.

They should try making good coffee

I'll save you a click, they're not sure if it was a bullet or if it was shrapnel from the bullets.

The distinction isn't very important, in my humble opinion, and this is a fairly misleading headline.

I want a Chinese phone so badly, but I live in the USA so I think I'm SOL.

My Note 20 5g Ultra is starting to break down in certain places and the economy isn't what it used to be, so I'm not eager to spend another thousand plus dollars on a phone. There's plenty of great looking Chinese phones that go for like £200 in the UK that I'd love to consider, but it's just not an option here and the comparable Samsung device is a grand or more over that.

I'm looking at the line up of foldables and wondering

  1. do I even really need one? I kinda want one, they look cool, but is it really that much better than a normal phone?

  2. should I even consider the Galaxy when the Honor V3 looks like it's comparable specs with better battery and a thousand dollars cheaper?

Tho the latter requires figuring it how to get and use one in the US.

Is this tool called a camera, by chance?

Yah I think that's a fair judgement as well

Yah I agree it's a weak excuse and that Black probably has enough cash.

But I also imagine the reasoning behind this response is prolly something close to what I posted.

I think people who have a media based existence have to be more mindful of this kind of thing, because, like it or not, appropriate or not, it can have very serious effects on their livelihoods.

We all suffer a bit of this at work. There are things we avoid saying to our coworkers, bosses, customers and clients, etc. What is and isn't okay to say changes based on the nature of our employment. I can't tell my boss he's a stupid sac of shit for mismanaging a product launch in spite of my recommendations. For Tenacious D, it very much can be shit like this.

Kinda makes you glad you live a normal life where you can say normal things without it being an issue.

The wealth would be nice, tho.
