You should give SponsorBlock a try (it's available for browsers, as a feature in the YouTube ReVanced app for mobile, and SmartTubeNext for TVs).

It automatically skips every annoyance you tell it to; not just sponsored segments but like and subscribe reminders, "hey guys" intros, unnecessary fluff, outro screens, non-music parts in music videos... There's even a "skip to highlight" feature to get straight to the point.

It makes the modern YouTube experience so much better, that I flat out refuse to watch YT without it.

And this is the reason why I use pixel filters like HQ4X, because it's the closest you'll get to how the games actually looked back in the day, with the added bonus of a much increased resolution.

IMO if you can see the pixels, you're not playing vintage games the right way. You couldn't see them then, so why should you see them now? CRT filters are getting much better too if you hate the HQX look.

Damn that sucks, but I bet it's really freeing to no longer have to worry about empathy. I would never wish the same on myself, but it would be interesting to see what it feels like for a day or two.

For me it's Gravity (the one with Sandra Bullock crying in space) and the last two Nolan Batman films. I just don't understand why people like them so much.

So which one is supposed to be the good one? Her body looks identical to me in all three photos.

My dad said the same thing, except he was always the biggest asshole in the room.

Narcissism is the strongest drug I know of. But everyone was a narcissist except him, according to him.

I'm glad he's dead now.

Find me a tablet that fits in my pocket and I will.

Unfold the phone, then go into Developer Options and increase the Minimum Width setting until you have the screen real estate you wanted. That'll solve the issue of things not properly being zoomed out when you unfold it.

Next, fold the phone and increase the setting again until you're happy with how that one looks too.

Get a Fold 7. It's the same size as your average flagship when folded. But be warned: Once you get used to having a tablet in your pocket, there's no going back. It's especially great for restaurant menus, mobile games, and YouTube.

Which foldable do you own? There is no visible crease on my Fold 7 during normal use. The only way I can see it is by placing the phone directly under a light and angling it in an unnatural direction.

That said, my old Fold 4 had an obvious crease. But it's no longer an issue with modern foldables.

Fold 7 owner here and I can confirm that the crease is invisible during normal use. You have to purposely angle your phone in unnatural directions under a light to see it. My last phone was a Fold 4 and it was definitely visible then. Not anymore.

Good to know. Almost bought a Fold 6 but decided to fork over the dough for a Fold 7 instead (mainly cause I love how it's as thin and light as any other phone when folded).

Thanks for making me feel a lot better about dropping $2K on this fucking thing. Best phone I've ever owned but I paid out the ass for the privilege.
