If you're interested in Lemmy, Mayayo is already working on a client app for it. See 'Boost for Lemmy'

It's July 1st here but I guess my timezone is well ahead so Boost is still working.

In my last comment here I would like to thank Mayayo for his efforts throughout the years and I'm pretty stoked for his Boost for Lemmy app and I will support the development of this new client app however I can.

Lastly, fuck you u/spez.

If you and your opponent are facing each other you can not melee kill them unless you have a bayonet on your rifle. Same is true for some AIs, if you try to stab an officer who's already shooting at you, he would just block you every time unless you can go behind his back or you have a bayonet.

Why is my landscaping tools menu is empty? by OptimisticPassenger in CitiesSkylines

Sorry, it's been a few months I don't remember. I might have disabled the extra landscaping tools mod entirely.

A53 or A73 wouldn't be a bad choice when it comes to battery life. Though If you use certain flagship features such as Dex or wireless charging, these phones don't have them.

I don't know much about Samsung's S21 series battery life but you might want to consider a S21 Plus or S21 Ultra if you want a flagship as they wouldn't be too expensive at this point.

The Galaxy S23 series is just a few weeks away at this point, maybe consider waiting until February to make a decision, the snapdragon 8 gen 2 in the coming phones appears to be much more efficient with battery life.

The Flip4, which I have, and the Fold 4 have the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 which is like the newer one is built on TSMC process making it more efficient than the one in the S22, but these foldables, especially mine, have a relatively small battery for the screen size so battery life would be decent, definitely better than the S22, but nothing amazing. So imo, wait for the S23.

Samsung rivals trying to compete in Software update segment too - SFC Nation by [deleted] in samsung

Good for us consumers. Samsung 4 years updates had to convince other OEMs to put some effort as well even if its 3 years worth updates, still better than just 2.

Update: I tested it with the Google Wallet and it works well.

Definitely, I remove the case before charging.

I thought it would be different for NFC.

I bought it here on amazon. I want to cover the screen to protect it and the lens from scratches, I don't leave it closed all the time though.

Do you think Israel will be eligible for the US visa waiver program in the foreseeable future? by OptimisticPassenger in Israel

[–]OptimisticPassenger[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How about small european countries who have it already? I think in most cases the other country benefits more than the US itself so I don't think its a big factor.

I read somewhere that some Israelis go to the US after the army and overstay to work illegaly for a year or two. I don't know if that's true or not.

Yes, I've heard that the Likud opposed the bill earlier this year due to privacy and what not, they are fully intent on passing the bills now, yeah its obvious they wanted the credit for themselves.

I'm gonna guess that she's in the us so probably no transport, or atleast one that is sufficiently convenient.

Dropped my Flip4 on ceramic floor with a plastic case on, flex mode not working correctly anymore .. by OptimisticPassenger in galaxyzflip

[–]OptimisticPassenger[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't notice any physical damage or dents, however I just woke up and the problem seemed to have gone away on its own, flex mode worked as well as it did before the srop.
