As an owner of a z flip 3, just be aware of short battery life. If u travel a lot or don't expect to charge everyday (sometimes twice as a heavy user) it will annoy you fast.

Otherwise, samsung offers good value/durability. But if I had to choose right this moment I'd go motorla razr plus

My z flip 3 is a day one model, it lived up well, no screendamage, few screen protector replacements and it hasn't been babied. I drop.my phone atleast once a week as i'm an iT engineer and use the flashlight a lot.

I love the fact its small in my pocket, fold in half so I can watch videos without stand or on its side it stays put. And the selfie cam.tripod is neat, and the fact I can direct the flashlight to where I need it is also why I love it.

Battery should be better, coverscreen is moderatly usefull but wondering if it was bigger if i'd use it more.

Overal, great phone if u know what u get. Otherwise slab phones are better for most.

This!

I used winrar at first, but never truly trusted 7zip. Didn't like the way it looked. Then first time I learned about ninite, I saw peazip and never looked back.

With the soon to be supported .rar on windows 11 I might do away with it but I feel peazip works faster.

Yeah it suprised me too. Even the gf enjoyed it. Anthony mackie and stefanie bartez had good chemistry

I used a fujitsu q9000 mini pc, a superold thing running first gen i3m chip. It was also undervolted but performed fine for 1080p streams. 8 gb ram 2tb

Recently I upgraded to a Nuc i3-8th gen, 16gb ram and a 4tb drive. It can handle 4k and is much faster at transcoding.

The NUC doesnt consume much and works pretty well. Its also a more quite and lived in a big ventilated closet.

Lemmy handshake is catchy, i'd give it a vote.

Eager to try it out.

you might want to check honeygain's network calls, because I had it running and then suddenly noticed my IP got banned on quite a few websites.

Turns out it was my honeygain traffic that caused it, I quickly uninstalled it after that.

Same, the return of danny ric... let's go motorracing!

Yeah, I stopped browsing trakt and imdb and just rely on that app for discovery. (And requests from the gf). It made my "managing" work a lot lighter and more fun.

Raivo looks nice, I've been using authy for a long time. To sync all my authenticators since I used to swap phones often.

Shame its ios only.

Bitwarden is the best bang for buck.

As much as standard AA,AAA batteries are nice and common. The issue is that they are not that energy dense. So for a 5000MaH battery you would need a larger space if it where AA's than if it's a nice and flat LiPo pack.

Also our modern devices use pretty specialized charging/power needs which require custom batteries.

Can't fast charge an AA with 120W's of power.

Though I remeber the days a low battery on my gameboy didn't have to mean finding a cable but just plopping some fresh AA's. Felt like reloading irl.

I use the nzb360 app for android which makes it very user friendly. She wouldn’t dabble with the ui’s and is the kind of person to use her phone for everything and doesn’t want to use pc’s.

I chose jellyfin because it was opensource, looked better imho and was free.

I’d say stick to whatever works the best, plex with lifetime is a solid option that does it all.

So what are your plans for the week? how are you feeling?

Reddit used to have those threads, I figured I'd get them started again.
