Imagine trying to squeeze toothpaste out of a tube but it's almost empty vs almost full.

Your gut is meant to keep things moving along... If it doesn't, it ain't good.

Instant Pot.

Apparently they went bankrupt because they built their units too well. Everyone bought one and never needed to buy a replacement.

X is just a vague term though. It's also often used as a placeholder for unknown or variable things. So the "formerly Twitter" is going to stick for quite a while.

It's like naming a product "The Thing". Anyone who talks about it will always have to clarify what Thing they are talking about basically forever.

Nope. If your other finger is still resting on the mouse, it fucks up and can't tell the difference between left and right click. It's a 50/50 gamble unless you lift your fingers off beforehand.

Yes, I did use the mouse before, and I was wondering why the fuck the thing kept right clicking when I left clicked and left clicking when I right clicked. Only after googling did it reveal that it misinterprets shit if both fingers are resting on the mouse.

What kind of fucking mouse requires googling to click?

You'll be perpetually behind the times. People tend to get set in their ways even by their 30s. You'll constantly lag behind the trends, language, and tastes of the younger generation...

If you were the first to be immortal, you may not have the best version of immortality and it may render you incompatible with better, future types of immortality. Like magical regeneration that prevents you from getting a personality upload to a cyberbrain that is a million times faster and smarter than the squishy biological brain.

Rich people want to get richer. Rich people can afford to bribe/wine and dine/trade favors with the select few who actually write the law.

That is all. Nobody enjoys paying taxes, but the rich are just the ones in a position to actually do something about it.

That really depends on the type of immortality you get. Brain upload to a cyborg body doesn't get cancer.

That line is bullshit anyway, otherwise the entire field of surgery wouldn't exist.

I kinda like the way it looks too. Not 100% but maybe 80%. But I generally like the look of the 80s style retro futuristic, highly angular vehicles like the DeLorean, Lamborghini Countach, and the Hyundai N74.

I don't want the cybertruck simply because I don't want a huge ass truck and the build quality, but if they had made a Ford Maverick sized one without the quality issues I'd be seriously considering it.

From my understanding, the P8P's video boost can't be done in the phone itself, but it's actually uploading the video to Google's servers, processing it there, then downloading the finished product back again. In fact, it probably uploads two videos, one at high ISO and one at low ISO to get the full HDR range.

For anyone who wants to take lots of videos, this sounds like it'll blow through your data caps very quickly.

Big jump for the regular 8 but no increase at all for the pro?

Looking at the details listed from this leak, it looks like all the previous leaks were wrong. The specs for the main sensor are the same as the P7, the Samsung GN1 sensor.

Also rumors of the IMX787 ultrawide appear to be incorrect as well, only 48MP instead of 64.
