HTC U24 series with Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 coming on June 12 (www.fonearena.com)

The HTC phone model number 2QDA100 recently surfaced in Geekbench listing, revealing Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 SoC, 12GB of RAM and Android 14. It also showed up in the Google Play Console database that revealed FHD+ (1080 × 2436 pixels) along with other details that were already revealed in the benchmark listing.

kat_angstrom,

I doubt it’ll have the “Edge sense” (squeeze for actions) feature, but I gotta say, for my U11+ it was a game changer and I miss it

kat_angstrom,

Oooof, I hear that. Things are more political than ever at my work and it’s like, I just want to do my job and go home

kat_angstrom,

Op, please find a different hobby. Ads are NOT what we need more of on the internet.

kat_angstrom,

Yup. Anything punishable by a negligible fine is Legal For A Fee.

“The Why Files” is a blight upon humanity and one of YouTube’s most successful, most awful sources of BS

kat_angstrom,

I have a friend who became a flat earther and cites The Why Files flat earth video as containing “a ton of good evidence”. The debunkings are never so salacious as the “evidence” laid out in the first half, and get written off. :(

kat_angstrom,

He says the debunking parts are “what YouTube forces them to add” to the video, where the first half is the Truth and the second half can be reliably skipped. That’s for all the videos from that channel, which is why he’s now reading the Bible in order to learn more about “the Anunaki”

kat_angstrom,

Yeah, my Loblaws boycott is about three months old, but I’ve been boycotting Walmart for 20+ years

kat_angstrom,

Probably, Yes.

But maybe not if it’s a weird prequel retcon action dramedy featuring Jack O’Neil, age 20, going undercover in Goa’uld high school to try and locate the evil fiends behind a counterfeit jeans smuggling ring, falling in love with 18 year old student Sam Carter, who sees through his macho act and urges him to try and see the good in every Goa’uld, even the Captain of the Football Team, Lants McDonaldson, the awkward son of Apophis who just wants to settle down with a human of each gender on a country farm, raising llamas.

kat_angstrom,

We got a ping pong table. Everyone is convinced that if you’re seen using it during work hours that puts a target on your back

kat_angstrom,

If Mother Teresa couldn’t beat the charges, that would mean that it’s because a fair and impartial trial found her guilty? Definitely word salad

kat_angstrom,

It’s not just “they make products and services that people buy”, it’s that “they maximize their personal profit at the expense of people and the environment”.

It’s easy but reductive to blame consumers for consuming, when it’s worth noting that biodegradable packaging costs more than plastics that will never break down, so corporations will choose cheap plastic over environmentally friendly packaging 99.9% of the time.

The incentives are wrong. Instead of maximizing profit we need to ensure that profit is not maximized at the expense of sustainability, at the expense of pollution, and at the expense of the entire future of our planet.

kat_angstrom,

That’s… Really passing the buck though.

Nothing is stopping corporations from doing The Right Thing right now except their own desire not for profit, but for maximized profit at all costs. Dare I say it, but if a company can’t make a profit without creating harm, it doesn’t deserve to make a profit.

kat_angstrom,

Just finished Cordwainer Smith’s “Norstrilia”, which was kind of a charming but innocuous mess.

Now started Alfred Bester’s “The Demolished Man”, which is decidedly not good, though it’s old school fun

Best Buy Membership "discount" (lemmy.world)

So I was shopping with my wife today and I said “oh let’s see if my membership helps out.” So we went and added the same item to each of our carts, and to our surprise, the total was the same! So what is it exactly that I’m paying for in this membership if the items “original price” is higher for me than it is for...

kat_angstrom,

Omg they raised the original price to create some puny “savings”? That’s scammy AF

kat_angstrom,

11, so that when I outrun the bear, it’ll be 11 who dies, while 7 is waiting for me at home

kat_angstrom,

spend the holidays watching it over and over again

Have these people never met people before?

kat_angstrom,

Nerds still are smarter than us.

Unfortunately a cult of managers has arisen to rule over the nerds and they hype with an iron fist.
