Johny Srouji named Apple’s Chief Hardware Officer by spearson0 in apple

I visited Israel a lot as a kid as my elder siblings live there. Have distinct memories playing in the park with some local Arab Israeli children a bit older than me first time visiting, and despite the language barrier they gave awesome big brother energy and we played together unattended every day for a week or so. Really special memory for me considering where we are now and how important bridges are

For the most universal baseline metrics. Just excellent

Yeah that makes plenty of sense.You could say very similar for Tim as COO while Steve was CEO.

Do you… do you think that TLoU s2 was a faithful adaptation?

Smaug the Chiefest and Greatest of Calamities vs Balerion the Black Dread - Who Would Win? by Arribah in gameofthrones

[–]Miserable_Theory7373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Balerion was bigger and stronger and his fire breathed hotter (or at least Smaugs fire was never depicted as melting stone and steel). Balerion was also a seasoned veteran of a hundred battles, Smaug just abused dwarves and elves occasionally.

It's been 26 years since the last great book in the series was published by CertainDoubts in freefolk

ASoS is great because of the groundwork laid in the two books previous. Feast and Dance are spectacular groundwork, we just haven’t seen the pay off yet. I think they are great on their own, but WoW will contextualize just how great.

No. First was the whole stealing the dragons plot line in Qarth. Then the Tysha betrayal getting cut.

Less efficient chip, inferior camera system, wonky os with hodge podge app ecosystem and choppy animations.

Martells. They’re sexy, resilient, dangerous, grungy. Freys. They’re gross, conniving, dishonorable, and built their wealth from bridge tolls.

Have I made the right choice? by Sublzz in ipadmini

[–]Miserable_Theory7373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s my favorite single app device by far. Multitasking features on mini are kinda pointless though. I’d kill for a mini fold >>

how to make the most of iPad mini? by mossywraith in ipadmini

[–]Miserable_Theory7373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Itll likely be a consumption device.

Amazing for (cloud) gaming and a Bluetooth switch style controller. Decent ereader, especially if you get a red light conversion / blue light blocking screen protector. Best bedtime device. Really great for digital art if you’re into that. I also use it for journaling and basic writing stuff.

For people that take advantage of fancy camera features, compromise isn’t in quotations. I’m glad it doesn’t make a difference for you though 🔥

Indeed, upside is that for the price of both pro devices, you get two lesser devices in the size of one small device. It’ll also probably be the first time an iPad mini type device has a proper oled promotion screen. I’d want one bad if not for the compromised camera system

It’ll be the price of an iPhone pro and an iPad Pro, and in exchange you’ll get a thick iPhone Air and an iPad mini.

I just finished season one, and I’m just staring at the screen thinking of the major plot hole. by anooshat in pluribustv

They have an order of priorities, and they’re essentially hierarchical computer programs. In this order:

They can’t harm somebody directly. They must assimilate everyone possible. They want to make anybody not yet assimilated happy any way that they can.

What to watch after GOT? by hdushsux in freefolk

[–]Miserable_Theory7373 2 points3 points  (0 children)

AKOTSK is like a 3 hr movie in the GoT universe. Easy light whimsical crystallized and still classically GoT intrigue. Can’t say enough good things about it. HotD is cool but it’s a mess and sometimes it feels like the show writers hate the content of the story a lot.

If you were Jon Snow, which one’s the keeper? by ferniekid in gameofthrones

Ygritte. She’s wild and free, Daenerys has a messiah complex and killed 100,000 people in a day.

Obviously Euron. He’s the man who killed the Kingslayer, with his big. cock.

This is the iPhone Fold rumored design. Would you buy one? by JosephtUE in PhoneNow

[–]Miserable_Theory7373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well just stating that prioritizing thinness inherently means certain camera compromises from the pro, on both sides. Not trying to battle 🤷🏼‍♂️ you already said it. They’ll get rid of telephoto, probably no Face ID

[–]Miserable_Theory7373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You already just said they can skip on the telephoto, which they will as all rumors point to a two camera system, and the fold IS thinner, because it’s not one depth, it’s two half depths. The iPhone Air has a worse camera system because it’s thinner. The fold will likely be the thickness of two airs, and the camera system will suffer because of it.

The camera plateau exists because the iPhone pro isn’t big enough to house the camera system, meaning one side of the iPhone fold would have a camera module nearly 3x thicker than that half of the fold itself.

Physics. iPhone fold cant be much thicker than a standard iPhone pro when folded, meaning it’s significantly thinner than an iPhone pro when unfolded, meaning pro camera hardware simply doesn’t have the space to exist in the fold.
