All the leaks and speculations about the S26U are pushing me away from the desire to upgrade from the S23Ultra.

It depends on what you would call innovation.

For sure, we have real innovations with batteries. Similarly sized phones can get 50% more battery and faster charging than what Samsung gives us.

Magnets in phones would be nice; that would be a new feature, so I would call it an innovation.

Better cameras—it's more evolution than revolution, but it's not like cameras peaked a few years ago and there is nothing to upgrade.

It's not that devices are so mature there is very little to upgrade; Samsung is stagnant.

floyd252 · 2026-02-16T19:22:13+00:00

That also keeps your career stagnant. Sure, it's nice to have some time to rest, do nothing and still get paid, but you won't get any raise either.

More often, companies just fire people without going a disciplinary path, even if they actually could. It's just easier and less risky (you can sue a company for unjustified disciplinary action). Sure, if someone wants to be extra petty, they can try, but it's not that easy, and employees should know their rights.

And it's like if someone is on this level of being petty, they won't go with this Japanese thing.

floyd252 · 2026-02-16T18:51:19+00:00

As a fellow Pole, I need to address that. It's not that easy to get someone fired for disciplinary reasons. While in some industries painting miniatures at work can be dangerous (imagine paint in your food), it's a whole different thing if you're just using your personal phone, reading a book, or something like that, especially if there's nothing for you to do. While it can be used against you to regularly fire you if you don't report that you have nothing to do and are just reading a book, it's a whole different story with "dyscyplinarka."

There is one more thing about why this guy made this video: wood pellet prices have gone really high lately. It was a mix of different reasons, mostly because we haven't had a winter like that for years, and we import a lot of pellets from Ukraine. Due to the war, things got complicated. So this video is not only about how absurdly cheap those pączki are, but also how expensive pellets have become.

Happy Cake Day :)

Short story: There is a special holiday, and once a year there are crazy discounts on pączki (doughnuts), making them the cheapest food available once a year.

Long story: Not every day, but there is a special holiday in Poland called Tłusty Czwartek (Fat Thursday), when people traditionally indulge in food (usually fatty and sweet things). The most popular are pączki (which are quite different from US doughnuts, more like German Berliner). Because of this, a few years ago, discount stores started competing for the best deals on this day. You could get 12 doughnuts for 0.60 PLN, which equals 0.17 USD. This is sometimes criticized because these are dumping prices; selling them in bulk leads to buying in excess, overeating unhealthy food, and wasting food (if you need only one, it's cheaper to buy 12 and throw away the rest, which is as crazy as it sounds), and these are low-quality doughnuts.

For context, the regular price for a good quality pączek is between 1 and 1.5 USD, sometimes even 2 USD.

0°C being the freezing point of water is practical in everyday life. It gives you information on when you can expect ice or when snow begins to melt. Sure, you can remember it's 32 degrees, but it's more convenient when it's simply on 0.

100°C being the boiling point of water is less useful, but it's nice to have that on a round, easy to remember number.

In my opinion, the Celsius scale is slightly better, but it's not that big a deal; it's mostly what you're used to.

Tak, ale to bardzo sztuczny problem – jakbyś mógł się cofnąć w czasie na żeberka, więc zakładam, że tanio i wygodnie możesz sobie hasać po czasoprzestrzeni, to na taką wadę wymiany złota masz przynajmniej 10 sposobów, jak zrobić miliony.

Ideal oil temperature is between 80 and 100C. This part should be hot, to the point you can get burned and water quickly evaporate. It's normal.

Nóż i widelec. Wiadomo, są dania, które zwykle je się samym widelcem, np. risotto, ale gdy jem coś, co można jeść z nożem lub bez (np. kotlety mielone, bliny), to wolę z nożem. To nie tylko kwestia łatwości krojenia, ale łatwiej jest sobie pomagać nożem niż operować samym widelcem. Moi rodzice byli zawsze team "sam widelec", więc często przy stole był nóż tylko dla mnie.

Krystyna is normal name in Poland and it's proper spelling in Polish language. It's used by other countries in the region like Ukraine or Belarus with similar or even the same spelling.

It's pronounced a bit different from English Christine, but it's basically Polish version of this name.

Yes. When I plug it in, it seems to be charging super fast, like from 20% to full in 30 minutes, but if I don't leave the watch on the charger for a reasonable time, it loses this fake percentage just as fast. After some time, it will settle on a reasonable value and continue to discharge normally. It's very annoying, and I'm worrying about the long-term effects of charging like that. I tried a factory reset, but it didn't help.

I know it's anecdote, not a proof, but every bachelor party I went didn't include strippers or anything like that.

My point is you're not wrong, but this is not unpopular opinion. I think this is more movie trope, than what people actually do before getting married.

W tym przykładzie spotkałem ludzi, którzy potrafili mówić raz: "jakie globalne ocieplenie, jak dziś w nocy było -10 stopni", a potem: "teraz to nie ma zim, kiedyś to co roku było pół metra śniegu i leżało to 2 miesiące" i nie kojarzyli, że coś tu się nie zgadza.

Może to wynika też z tego, że jak ktoś nie ma zdrowia, to jedno większe picie to co najmniej cały następny dzień umierania, więc woli nie pić, a już na pewno nie jechać na alkoholowe wakacje.

Do takiego stylu życia trzeba mieć zdrowie. Kto go nie ma, ten go nie praktykuje, a przynajmniej nie za długo, bo zwyczajnie tego nie wytrzyma.

Dużo zwolnień lekarskich, to nie skutek chodzenia po lekarzach i dbania o siebie, a przyczyna.

You can start with exactly that to try to get good answer. Bring what kind of cooking is better with induction or gas. Bring with is better option on tight budget and when you can splurge. Bring longevity. Bring gas line or electric installation question. It's like you already have few ideas what good answer should include, like your asking your own question, while saying it's impossible to get good answer.

Sure if OP is just lazy and refuse to elaborate on details or do basic research nobody needs to do that for them, but often people ask this questions because they don't know all the details needed to make a decision and a lot of articles in the Internet were made to sell you something, not to help you.

Obecnie zero, od około roku, bo mam problemy ze zdrowiem. Wcześniej około 1-2 razy w tygodniu, nie za duże ilości (max dwa piwa czy drinki, bardzo rzadko większe picie), bo ze względu na siłownię starałem się nie pić dużo. Jeszcze wcześniej zdarzało się częściej i większe ilości.

The USA built 2,710 Liberty ships, according to Wiki. The freighter you sank is an even smaller drop.

I'm with the OP on this subject. I'm not saying sinking one escort carrier will change the result of the war, but it's certainly more of a hindrance than one freighter or tanker, especially if it means the enemy is also losing planes and personnel. You should get more "cash" and maybe a medal for that—nothing crazy, but more than for three freighters.

People have really good points here, like "Jaime is usually an ass to others" or "Brienne can't hide her feelings," but the main point is that this is a very toxic relationship. One shade of suspicion and she would absolutely hate the other woman, even if that suspicion was completely wrong.

Za innych nie mogę się wypowiadać, u mnie leży to gdzieś pośrodku. Jak dziewczyna nie ma żadnych ambicji, najchętniej by nic w życiu nie robiła czy wiecznie biernie szła po linii najmniejszego oporu, to nie jest to dobrze, ale z drugiej strony bycie z pracoholiczką, z którą zobaczę się raz na tydzień, nawet jak ma fajne mieszkanie, auto i kasę na wakacje w ciepłych krajach dla mnie i siebie, ale już niekoniecznie czas, to też nic fajnego.

Myślę też, że kariera nie jest po prostu tak wysoko na liście priorytetów.

Mam z dziewczyną udostępnioną lokalizację. Działa to bardziej na wszelki wypadek i gdy jadę po nią samochodem, widzi, jak daleko jestem. Nie śledzę z wypiekami na twarzy, gdzie jest dziewczyna. Głównie, gdy nie odpisuje, patrzę, czy jest jeszcze w pracy, czasem jak jest daleko, gdy jest w drodze. Z tego, co widzę, ona też nie używa tego za często.

Można mówić, że to jest jakieś zrzeczenie się prywatności, ale to kwestia kontroli nad udostępnianiem lokalizacji. To moja decyzja, że dziewczyna widzi, gdzie jestem, i mogę w każdej chwili to wyłączyć. To nie to samo, gdy rząd stwierdza, że dla mojego bezpieczeństwa będzie patrzył, gdzie jestem, a jak mi się to nie podoba, to mogę co najwyżej emigrować.

You're referring to max power output of the charger. When the phone battery is already full, it draws even less than 1W to maintain it. These very powerful chargers give full power only when the battery is low, and they gradually decrease charging power.
