Fold, for sure. Actually pocketable, and secure once pocketed.

I have an e-ink tablet that runs Android. Copes with most apps and can deliver stuttery video.

E-Ink can't be far off replacing glass screens (at least as an option) because the benefits for battery life are substantial. But I'd think it would replace them rather than be in addition to. A phone with screens on both sides would be so fragile.

There is a really, really big difference between "we want to kill you" and "we do not want to be killed by you".

Don't tolerate fascists. However comfortable that centrist illusion is, you are signing your own death warrant and that of millions of others (most of whom will suffer the consequences of your actions long before they get around to the people who feel safe enough to argue that fascists must be tolerated).

This is the mantra of lemmy.ml.

Tell us, how are russian and chinese cops?

It's more of an anarchist thing, to be fair.

They're bastards, obv. Like it says in the OP.

When they're seeking to have people beaten to a pulp? Yes, obviously. Freedom for a few fascist bullies is unfreedom for everyone else. They can fuck off to Gab or Truth Social or somewhere else they'd be welcome. Not here.

The Brownstone Institute is a covid misinformation front. Their content should not be posted without context.

You can check their post history? Karma doesn't tell you anything, really. Mine went up tenfold one day just because I replied to what ended up as the top post in a top thread in a much bigger sub than those I normally post in. Some people spend all their time in big subs making short, smart remarks that get a lot of karma, others spend their time in enemy territory battling people they disagree with. Some toxic people have a lot of karma because they hang out in toxic subs.

The problem to be solved is how to order threads. Old skool bulletin boards just bump the most recently replied one to the top. Which works well on an old skool bulletin board as long as it isn't too large, but very badly on a big site where a few big active threads can drown out all the others.

I don't know what the solution is. But the numbers don't mean anything without checking the context. Karma is useful for ordering threads/comments, and giving users a bit of dopamine when they get some attention. But there (probably) are better ways to do it.

It's just a brand name? "Apple" doesn't have much to do with computers either. There's only so many words to go around.

I'm not USian but I'd be astonished if that was legal, even in the barbaric hellhole that is the US healthcare system.

Ask her to put it in writing and then challenge the insurance company.

Put a pissmat in front of your bedroom door.

Perhaps show more affection towards your flatmate? I mean, I'm not saying you treat her like shit. But perhaps the dog needs to know you're not a threat to her? Bring her food or something, I dunno.
