Sounds about right. I held onto my 16:9 OnePlus 3 until the battery completely gave out in 2023 or so. It was the perfect size, and I hated the 2:1 ones that came after. Tried a OP Nord N200 for about a week but returned it.

Daily driving the Minimal Phone now. It’s not the highest resolution by any stretch of the imagination, but it’s 4:3 and makes current phones look even skinnier than when I was used to 16:9.

The only thing preventing me from looking into this further is it’s yet another tall-skinny phone. I don’t know which manufacturer popularized that ridiculous aspect ratio, but I hate them and everyone who followed suit.

That’s assuming OP tags it as AI, though. I don’t have that much faith in the people who would spread AI slop in the first place. It’s a nice feature, and I’m not shitting on it, but it’s less impressive to me once I factor in the human equation.

Or can mods apply the “AI” tag to it? I still need to at least try Piefed.

I don’t disagree, but prioritize to what people need to know in daily use instead of burying the lede in a sea of boilerplate.

I’m old, so I remember product info/safety labels before they turned into this. If you need gloves for something, step 1 was usually “Put on gloves”.

Exactly. And cut that in half if you’ve consumed any alcohol in the last ~12-24 hours.

That’s the kind of information that should be front and center without having to search the tiny text in the whole label.

TBF, you can read just about anything in Walken’s voice and it sounds like a disinterested threat lol.

These ah, boots, are made for Walken
And that’s just what they’ll do because
Some day…these boots…
Are gonna walk all over you.

(Does a little dance because it’s Christopher Walken and he dances in every movie he’s in. Look it up.)

I got the other one once someone explained it to me, lol. I just didn’t make the Macy Gray connection at first.

Ugh, I’m not optimistic enough to dispute that. Surely there must be a sane middle ground between unregulated free-for-all and forcing people to read through a whole MSDS just to see if they should take 1 or 2.

Safety regulations are written in blood, but warning labels seem to be written in stupidity and litigiousness.

Ah, yeah. That makes more sense. I’m right on the line between Gen X and Millennial so my mind went to the Nancy Sinatra song

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks. I guess I’ve just always thought it was the grounds that were freeze-dried and somehow that made them dissolve-able.

(Hoping I get the joke as an old Millennial)

So, those boots, in fact, aren’t made for walking?

Yep. They just knocked on Banner’s door at a very inopportune time.

Probably Nico Borie

Edit: Oh, goddamnit. My dyslexic ass read that as Michael Langdon. I’m gonna leave this up for a laugh at my expense but disregard.

Oh, nice. I didn’t catch what account posted it when I clicked on it.

Shame me 4 times? Shame on you for picking on a vulnerable man.

😂

It was the other day, too. It’ll probably be gone by tomorrow though. But keep uploading it for sure.

If you stop hearing from me, that’s exactly what happened; look for that van.

Them’s the fanciest lookin’ Funyuns I ever did saw, I tell ya whut
