Couldn’t you use a raspberry pi or something? My point was that a $50 android tv box beats the absolute top TVs both in terms of speed and compatibility with apps.

After a screening of The man who stare at goats, me and my friend were walking out of the theater silently, and as we approached a corner, we both had the same idea. Without a word, we both walked into the wall. It was pretty hilarious - for us.

Even though I really want to support them, I don’t think I could get used to it. I really hate large phones, I tried to get used to them but eventually I always switched back. That is the dealbreaker for me, but I also don’t like that it has a slower processor, worse cameras, and worse battery life than my 3 year old phone.

Good. Have fun uploading any information about me without wifi or an ethernet cable. Smart TVs were a mistake, even the most expensive ones are slow and trash.

While I agree, it is important to note that Valve is a private company. When you don’t have to please shareholders and do absolutely everything to increase revenue, there is possibility for a level-headed leader that keeps the company customer friendly.

But if anything changes (greed takes over or leadership changes), it could still turn.

Most people doesn’t have a choice when to wake up, as they need to get to work.

Even though I hate that it gets dark sooner, I think we should stay in winter time because AFAIK morning light is important for our health.

The S21 is wider by a lot (71mm vs 68mm)

There are just a handful of flagship phones coming out in the last two years that are sub 69mm wide: the zenphones, and the xperia 5 IV and V (and the apple iphone SE 2022)

I did the opposite.

I always found big phones very hard to use (even though I have big hands), so I preferred small phones.

Then I got an S21, which was borderline too big (relative to the S10e), so I was looking for a solution and found phoneloops. Using this is so comfortable, I figured I don’t really need small phones anymore.

I dropped my S21 and a couple of things went broke, so I figured I would try an S23 ultra with phoneloops.

It was comfortable to use with the loops. I liked the huge screen for consuming content and I found the pen pretty handy at times. But I just couldn’t get used to the thickness and weight. I didn’t like using it because of it. After two months I grabbed my old phone and was blown away by it’s small size and weight. I ordered some replacement parts and switched back (daughterboard, loudspeaker, battery, glue). I appreciate it’s size even more now.

I guess if they would make a 170g, 8mm thick phone with a 7 inch display (FLAT), I would definitely give it a try.

I guess you’re right.

I admit I haven’t thought about storage space on my phone for many years now, but that’s just my personal experience.

That’s fine. While it still takes space, it does not run in the background or at all. You can literally disable everything and softbrick the phone.
