simple

I bought it and am having a blast as well! There are definitely games I dislike, especially Barbuta (the first one). I get what it's going for but eugh, too slow and clunky.

Magic Garden was the first game I beat - and it's the only one I have a cherry disk on. Lots of fun, it's not that hard once it clicks.

I've only went through the first ten games and my favorites are Magic Garden, Mortol, and Velgress. The latter two are kicking my ass, but I keep coming back.

And imagine how much they sacrificed to make it 9.5mm. Not to mention that phone is an outlier (and the iphone 16 is actually 7.8mm). Priorities changed, phones now need more space for things like a bigger battery, better cameras, bigger heatsinks for faster performance and less throttling.

There are technical reasons. You can't just put in a sliding keyboard on a modern phone and expect it to work the same. They'll have to cut on so much to fit that without being too thick, and in the end you'll end up with a phone that's worse in every way and probably more expensive, for a feature so little people want.

How? His phone was still thicker than phones now and that doesn't have a cover.

You're comparing the market 10+ years ago to the market now... Your old phone was tiny compared to modern phones, which is a market that barely exists anymore because people prefer larger screens. It's one thing for a smaller phone to have a sliding keyboard, but slapping one on an already big phone would make it heavier and clunkier to use. The fact that touch screens are way bigger means that using a touch screen keyboard is much easier than it used to be, making slide out keyboards unnecessary.

I don't understand why every tech community acts like their niche opinions apply to the whole market. "Everyone wants small phones, we all want sliding keyboards, remember when operating systems were simple?" etc etc. I guarantee you if someone ACTUALLY made the type of phone you want it would barely sell and be seen as a gimmick.

I mean it sounds good on paper but who's going to want to buy a phone that's 2x thicker because it has a sliding keyboard? No doubt it'll be really expensive to make too.

It's weird that they're adding E2EE on voice but not in private text DMs, which is probably everybody's biggest concern when it comes to security on Discord. Better than nothing I guess.

Everyone: I wish Mozilla would just focus on their browser and not their other BS

fast forward to them cutting costs on a Mastodon server that nobody uses

Everyone: WTF???? I KNEW MOZILLA WAS A FAILURE OF A COMPANY CORPORATIONS ARE NOT OUR FRIENDS WHAT CLOWNS

Threads like this make me wonder why any corporation would bother with the fediverse when this is how most people are on mastodon

Someone just posted 'em in the comments.

I can't believe it's finally coming out. I've been following this game since it was announced 7 years ago. I'm even more excited now that the reviews are really good.

Ah yeah, must be one of the rare cases where regional prices are really favorable.

Speaking of Forza Horizon, they're really cheap on Steam currently. FH4 is only 4 dollars.

For a second I thought palworld was getting cancelled. They really need to make less suspicious titles for these posts.
