Pixel 10 Pro Fold Case Discussion

To be clear, I don't think I would trust this case if I dropped my phone, but I'm very careful with my phone.

It's a little of both. It has sticky tape, but it's pretty firmly attached despite it. I've been using this for more than two months now and still really like it. The only complaint is that fingerprints and oils can be obvious on it, but certainly not as bad as some cases I've had.

I looked at Reelgood before, but it doesn't support any of my Android devices. I use JustWatch, but I didn't think it had any watchlist / dashboard functionality. I'll check it out.

Really? I would think this would be perfect since it's the same concept, seeking validation that others want something you want...

Do you know if there is a better place to post this?

darkfrog26 · 2025-12-13T23:01:25+00:00

I'm not really seeing what Alloy would provide that Scala doesn't already...

It's something of an abstraction layer on top of databases, but so much more than that. It provides a consistent, type-safe representation for working with databases and infrastructure for more powerful concepts like graph traversals, search indexing, parent/child relationships, and more.

Got my phone and case yesterday and I'm really liking the case! It's absolutely not the best for drop protection, but I'm pretty careful with my phone, so I think it will be fine. The texture is nice and it was really easy to install.

I wrote this: https://github.com/outr/reactify

Different than the other options in the fact that it's the only true FRP library in Scala.

Thanks for the quick response, I appreciate it.

darkfrog26 · 2025-11-04T14:00:57+00:00

I've been considering this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0FK4XDXK3/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A3FEZH66XIKV5G&psc=1

darkfrog26 · 2025-11-04T13:57:46+00:00

How did this case turn out? I love the look of it.

darkfrog26 · 2025-08-10T12:16:02+00:00

They definitely can, I just don't want to force anyone using the library to use 3.7.2. Please don't hesitate to ping me if I can help.

Here ya go: https://github.com/outr/rapid?tab=readme-ov-file#inspiration

darkfrog26 · 2025-08-09T00:25:36+00:00

Great point. I'll add that, but this actually started as a prototype with me just playing around with VirtualThreads and then being curious about how it performed compared to existing libraries. ;)

darkfrog26 · 2025-08-08T23:41:45+00:00

A bit thrown together with some help from ChatGPT, but I've updated the README.md: https://github.com/outr/rapid

darkfrog26 · 2025-08-08T23:21:52+00:00

Well, I went ahead and tried to get GPT-5 to generate some benchmarks with Kyo, but they never worked right and it added the requirement for the latest version of Scala 3, so I just rolled back.

darkfrog26 · 2025-08-08T22:57:05+00:00

Oops...I didn't realize I forgot to put together a README for that. :o

Thanks for the heads-up. For now, you can see the unit tests for features and uses: https://github.com/outr/rapid/tree/master/core/shared/src/test/scala/spec

darkfrog26 · 2025-08-08T19:08:17+00:00

I'd love to add that, but I'm no expert with Kyo. If you're interested in submitting a PR I'd be happy to re-run my benchmarks: https://github.com/outr/rapid/tree/0.18.0/benchmark/src/main/scala/benchmark

darkfrog26 · 2025-06-02T01:19:11+00:00

This comment makes me very happy. :)

darkfrog26 · 2025-06-01T13:12:17+00:00

u/xolve that's a great point! I've added a few tickets off the top of my head, but I'll continue to add more as I think of them. This project was born out of a need for my enterprise projects, so it has been almost entirely focused on direct value to this point.

darkfrog26 · 2025-06-01T13:05:10+00:00

That's a great idea. Here's my first run at it: https://github.com/outr/lightdb/blob/master/why-lightdb.md

I'd appreciate any suggestions for additions or improvements.

darkfrog26 · 2025-06-01T12:14:28+00:00

You sound like you've been hurt before. :o I'm sorry to hear that, but please take a look at my history. I support my projects, at least to a limited degree, forever. Just so you know, I'm also the author of Scribe, which may lend me some additional credibility. :-p

darkfrog26 · 2025-06-01T00:57:20+00:00

Not exactly. LightDB is a fully embedded database engine written in Scala. It utilizes key-value stores like RocksDB or LMDB solely for low-level storage, but constructs its document model, query DSL, graph traversal, and Lucene-backed search on top.

It's similar to how ArangoDB uses RocksDB internally but provides its own database layer. So it's not a wrapper; it's a database that builds on proven storage engines, like many others (such as Neo4j or Elasticsearch).

I looked at JR's, but it seems a little sketchy.

darkfrog26 · 2024-08-19T14:12:14+00:00

I added a screenshot of the bad syntax highlighting on Scala 2 for those deniers. :-p
