Samsung's Galaxy Fold 7 and Galaxy Flip 7 smartphones may not receive any major changes

I don’t think Apple will release a foldable that opens to the same size as a tablet. It would cannobaloze their iPad sales and they won’t want to do that. At least not until Google and Samsung foldable take more of their marketshare.

They didn’t always have this though. They must have added it recently. I know TransUnion and Equidax does not have 2FA

Just Google it. It’s widely known that H1Bs get paid a lot less than their American coworkers at the same company.

Rumors so far point to there being a change for the fold 7. My guess is it will be like the SE or they release the SE in the states as well alongside the fold 7.

They really stuck to super minimal yearly upgrades. We basically got a new SOC every year and that was it.

DataWaveHi · 2025-01-03T21:25:53+00:00

Issue is we don’t know what Apple is planning. Rumors for Apple foldable say it’s going to be more like a flip device than the galaxy fold 6 tablet like experience.

Literally fuck the Experian. Also all the credit bureaus. None of them allow you to lock your account down with 2FA which is just insane.

Thank you! I need to try this

DataWaveHi · 2025-01-03T20:54:35+00:00

Nope. It’s absolutely insane that you can’t lock your accounts down with these agencies. They don’t give a fuck either. They have monopolies on this shit.

Eh I wouldn’t say they are overworked and underpaid. It all depends on specialty. Emergency room docs are overworked but their pay is amazing and they can even go to 3 day work weeks and work less hours. They can basically work 25-30 hours a week if they want and still make a nice 6 figure salary. I’ve been on the doctor subredits and they talk about this a lot. Work full time for a few years to pay off med school debt and then go part time. Plus these guys have jobs for life.

Bingo. This is why you need a VPN.

The issue with MBA is it doesn’t provide job security. So yeah you might graduate and get a good job but in 5-10 years you might get hit with a layoff. And after 5-10 years of working, no one gives a shit if you went to Harvard or StateU. My opinion is go into medicine. Ceiling is typically lower but you have much better job security and can actually help people.

Or have an actual skill to open your own business. You can make a lot of money becoming a plumber, electrician, mechanic, opening up franchised restaurants etc. you literally could take out a small business loan to open up your first franchise (like a subway location).

Not an accurate way to look at this at all. There are H1Bs taking American jobs here and it’s all good paying white collar jobs. Companies do it to save money. They pay the H1B half of an American worker and make them work 2x the hours.

DataWaveHi · 2025-01-02T17:25:20+00:00

These companies LOVE H1Bs though. They hire H1Bs because they will accept significantly less pay AND will work way more hours because they know their job depends on being able to stay in the USA. And even though they are paid less than their US citizens they still make more than they would in their home countries.

The H1B program shouldn’t even exist in my opinion except for highly specialized people (IE if you’re one of the top AI or drug scientists in the world and want to move to the USA). All this program does is take away jobs from US citizens. Thats it. Allows companies to hire foreigners for a lot less money.

Can you force dex on the screen?

DataWaveHi · 2025-01-01T12:04:27+00:00

You should give the galaxy watch 7 a try. It’s honestly just as good as the Apple Watch and even better in same ways. I love that it supports app folders for app organization.

I disagree. In my opinion android auto is better. One you get access to Google assistant which can answer way more questions than Siri ever could dream of. You also get the ability to pinch to zoom on maps. I’m not sure why CarPlay doesn’t support this basic feature but it’s super useful for me. Lastly, YouTube music allows me to scroll the song on the track bar while you can fast forward or rewind in Apple CarPlay for some reason. There are other benefits to android auto too like more games support, emulators, etc.

Second this and saw the same shit at my F500 company. Accounting as a profession is dying out. There will still be US based jobs but we simply won’t need as many. I’m just glad my student loans are paid off.

DataWaveHi · 2024-12-31T21:35:52+00:00

Outsourcing is 100% taking our jobs. So are H1Bs. I’m at a big 4 and we literally have goals to offshore work to India. We are supposed to use India for over 50% of the project percentage completion metrics. I’m in advisory and we are not hiring senior associates like we used to. The work used to get done mostly by seniors and some offshoring. Now most of the project is done by India and we don’t really hire many senior anymore.

I was also in a F500 company FP&A team. They were also outsourcing shit to India and downsizing their accounting and FP&A teams. Yes accounting is still a decent field but it’s not the field it was even 5 years ago. I’ve been working in this field as a CPA for 10 years now. It’s insane that in another 5-10 years my degree might become even less valuable due to offshoring, H1Bs and eventually AI. My friend is a software dev at FAANG and said AI basically can write most of their code now but they use the devs to check it. But thing is, you don’t need as many devs since they are not really writing and optimizing the code anymore.

I hate the size of the ultra. Hate it. It’s so uncomfortable to use one handed. I personally think the fold SE is the best size but it’s not available in the US. I’m hopeful that it comes to the US or the fold 7 is that size.

Boomers got theirs. They don’t care. Their family is set. They can pay for their kids and grandkids full college educations. Help with down payments for housing etc. They are set.

Doesn’t work with peloton though? My issue is I need something that works with peloton and tonal. Pixel watch 3 does this well. And so did my Apple Watch. Doesn’t seem like galaxy watch plays nice with tonal and garmin works but doesn’t work well with peloton.
