  • Honestly 2k is fine for most tvs, I wish that became standard. Imo 4k should be reserved for computer screens and the like, that are less than a metre from you, most people can’t really see the difference anyway, it all depends on screen size and distance. From memory a 60inch at 2m will not look any different in 1080 or 4k.

    Also side rant, drives me mad when people are more worried about resolution than bitrate (not directed at anyone here) . I have a friend who “can’t stand watching things in 1080p” but half the 4k streaming content is compressed to hell.


  • Hey mate, I was in the same spot roughly 6 months ago, and now have a pretty decent homeland hosting a bunch of services and it’s been amazing! I don’t really want to say what or how I set things up because I’m no where near competent enough to be offering guidance or advice, but I will say, if you have the time to knuckle down and learn, you can definitely do it! It’s very intimidating but by no means insurmountably hard.

    If you have an old PC that you don’t care about, you can just chuck some stuff on there to see if it’s something you would want to get into, wIth little to no risk.

    Has China ever expressed interest in joining NATO? Was there ever actually a declinature?

    New Zealand also isn’t part of NATO, does that mean NATO are imperialists AND flightless bird haters?

    Or is this another way I’m blinded by western media and China has been begging to get into NATO and they’re just not reporting it in my sheeple network?

    Edit: lol not a Chinese flag, I am blind and phone screen is small. My bad. Replace China with USSR then I guess?

    Edit2: my first edit makes it seem like I meant that this comment still makes sense with USSR in place of China. That’s not what mean, so to clarify, Im an idiot and this whole comment can be ignored ❤️

    Nooooo, you don’t get it. The poor artists are smug meanies so we are allowed to steal from them. If the poor artist just accepted the massive low ball offer than everyone would be happy and we’d have world peace probably.

    As someone who pretends to be a cider, same, except always in the context of “huh, red squilly underline here, time to find where I missed the fucking semicolon”


  • This article came out just before the ZenFone 9, which I feel (quickly skimming the list) met all of their “ideal” criteria except the design focused ones. I rocked it for a good while, was a good phone and it is super nice having a small phone for every day carry, but after years of foldables it was just a bit too much for me and I ended up going back to the z fold series.

    the problem is, from reading discussions around the time, that people either don’t want small phones, or they don’t feel premium enough (human bias is a helluva drug). I love the idea of a small weekend phone and hope something comes market that has all of the things this person wants (with a spec bump for 2025) cause I’d be super interested to give it a crack
