  • Advantages:

    • The screen is protected when the phone is closed
    • It allows for a larger screen while maintaining portability

    Disadvantages:

    • The screen is plastic, instead of glass. Meaning it is very easy to scratch
    • The screen has a hump where the hinge is
    • The hinge can get dirt in it, at which point you start developing lots of problems
    • They are very expensive

    I personally buy mid-budget phones, which means these aren’t even a consideration. But, I probably wouldn’t buy one even at the same price due to the plastic screens being very easy to scratch and a larger screen not having much value for me. But, really it’s up to you what you value in your phone.












  • As quoted from The Guardian:

    At least eight states, including Florida and Tennessee, have now introduced … legislation to prohibit “geo-engineering” or “weather modification”

    So, nothing to do with chemtrails and specifically addresses geo-engineering and weather modification. Cloud seeding is a thing and dispersing particulates to reflect sunlight has also been much discussed. These states simply don’t want it happening in their state.


    Also note how not a single quote in AP’s article has ‘chemtrail’ in it. Not a single damn one. The quotes they do have of the legislation specifically refer to things:

    …affecting the “temperature, weather, climate, or intensity of sunlight.”









  • It’s a few things, but a big one is the framerate jumping around (inconsistent frame time). A consistent 30fps feels better than 30, 50, 30, 60, 45, etc. Many games will have a frame cap feature, which is helpful here. Cap the game off at whatever you can consistently hit in the game that your monitor can display. If you have a 60hz monitor, start with the cap at 60.

    Also, many games add motion blur, AI generated frames, TAA, and other things that really just fuck up everything. You can normally turn those off, but you have to know to go do it.


    If you are on console, good fucking luck. Developers rarely include such options on console releases.
