  • I’m a big gimmick guy, I LOVE a good gimmick. I liked my Surface RT with the flat touch keyboard, I liked my Surface Book with the kooky hinge and detachable screen, and I like my Samsung Fold 6.

    I flip it open all the time, I like using the GameSir controller on it and turning it into a super emulator, I like watching YouTube on it with the kickstand while I cook, I like actually having one app on the left side, one app on the right.

    My god phones got boring, so many dull slabs of glass, it’s just nice to have something EXCITING again.



















  • I’ll steelman her POV because it seems people are (rightly) confused.

    Asexuals are requesting a day of recognition for what she sees as a negative-identity. Keep in mind, conservatives are often meritocratic.

    It’s like if there were a day for “coffee refrainers”, for everyone who doesn’t like drinking coffee. I’m sure if someone dunked on that day and the coffee refrainers, it’d all be in good spirits.

    But if someone dunked on asexuality, I’m sure it’d cause a lot of upset and defensive argument, which implies more “merit” to asexuality.

    While progressives can go “who cares, just leave em be”, conservatives see all “non-deserved” attention as an affront to meritocracy, that needs to be squashed.
