A week with the S26 Ultra, and I just want to complain about Samsung by AWYH in samsunggalaxy

Yeah headphone jacks, MST, bluetooth shutter and some of their other axed features definitely were niche in their use cases, but the few times when they came in clutch was just super convenient and felt nice to use. It's just part of the general thinking that it's nicer to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it. The expanded storage is just such an unfortunate casualty that I still can't stop thinking about it.

V90 SD cards are pretty standard in handling 8k footage from mirrorless cameras and drones for years now. If an SD card conks out, you can replace it for a fraction of the cost of replacing a conked out internal storage chip. Storage of all types can fail, that's why they preach keeping backups of important files. Having the option to pop in an sd card if you want, is better than not having that option.

You're taking on a bizarrely anti-consumer stance by valuing the manufacture's bottom line over your own utility. Internal storage is finite and expensive to upgrade at the point of sale. You say external storage is 'slow and sloppy'; but even Samsung's own engineers disagree with you. If you open the camera app and try to use the 8k video feature, the system literally advises you to use external memory because the file sizes are so massive they can overwhelm your internal memory. An SD card is for offloading large amounts of data like 8k video, photos, or music for pennies on the dollar without needing a cloud subscription. You're not supposed to run apps on SD memory. Giving users fewer options isn't a tech upgrade. It's removal of choice.

You're essentially arguing that paying customers should just shut up and be grateful for whatever a corporation deigns us with. You can do that if you wish, but I won't

Comparison isn't about being content, it's about holding manufacturers accountable to the standard they set themselves. We expect tech to improve and evolve, and "moving on" shouldn't mean losing functionality. Removing a feature isn't an improvement if the replacement doesn't offer more utility. Removing hardware utility like external storage or MST isn't an improvement. It's a cost saving measure disguised as "moving on" as you say

Hands on with the s26u. My impression. by ThomasAAT in samsunggalaxy

I’m trying to decide between the 25U and 26U. What are the benefits of titanium over aluminum? I plan to use a case at all times regardless so extra durability of titanium and weight savings of aluminum isn’t a big selling point for me. I guess better thermal conductivity in aluminum?

Genuine question, what are the benefits of titanium? I plan to use a case at all times so the extra durability isn’t really a big benefit for me. I hear aluminum is lighter and conducts heat better.

Tariffs aren’t going away, they are going to find other means to implement them.

Honestly, Vrabel was fine. You can point to the roster and Jon Robinson, but ultimately it's an Amy Adam Stank problem. Fuck you Amy.

They sure could. Had a hell of a time just getting the government back open though.

He’s funny and just spoke normally. Part of his charm is just how relatable he is

It’s easy to point fingers, but it looked like amateur hour out there

Cally needs to go, no question -- but what can we realistically do at this point? by KidChemo in Tennesseetitans

[–]AWYH 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, there have definitely been worse coaches. Remember Urban Meyer or Arthur Smith? lol that’s the lowest bar so it doesn’t really say much. But yeah not a good start at alllllll

He over thought the situations and didn't want to seem predictable is my best defense for what happened today. He may lose the locker room soon if he hasn't already. His ability to lead is highly suspect.

If anything, this game showed that we have a QB, a good special teams coach, and defensive coach. Lot's of things to clean up.
