I dabble in comics and manga too, so I prefer the full screen to an e-ink display. It's also nice for videos.

I just got a foldable. The increase in functionality of reading on my phone is substantial, and that's such a big fraction of my phone use that I consider it worthwhile. I wouldn't be as productive if I had to carry a bulky e-reader with me all the time, it's incredibly convenient to be able to fold it up and put it in my pocket.

It's a bit heavier, but I got used to it quickly. My old phone feels suspiciously light now, like a toy. The expense is certainly a factor, but for me the utility is worth it in the long run. It's not for everyone, but there are people it makes sense for.

I think they interviewed people in his circles, and I think a friend flippantly noticed it was kinda ironic that they played Among Us with someone who went on to actually assassinate someone, and now the media is twisting that into the standard "video games cause violence" bugbear.

The tipped minimum wage in the US is far less than 96% of non-tipped. Federally it's more like 70% of standard minimum wage, in my state it's about 75%.

If your justification for a behavior is that it's fine because all the people who don't behave that way will compensate, your behavior is unjustified.

Still, different angle of attack.

In space, you are the bracing surface.

I fear the transitional period implied by some of these changes will be what gets you. You have unlimited authority; you can't just snap your fingers like a genie, you'll need to implement these policies. These things take time, and they'll cause chaos and uncertainty, followed by confusion as people adjust. If you're not careful with your rollout, you risk waves of disapproval.

Fibonacci numbers are easier than ln(5) to calculate on the spot tho

False. Leg position is different, one allows additional bracing. NASA virgins caught red handed.
