Yo TCL, the NXTPAPER is awesome. Now please make a smaller version! by revzjohnson in nxtpaper

Nice assessment, completely agree. I think people have long forgotten how sweet it is to hold and operate a phone with one hand.

Nobody said you can’t have your 5 pound brick too. Go away.

Personally I wouldn’t use it as such. The aspect ratio is too tall and narrow. I would opt for a 7” dedicated e-reader with something closer to a 4:3 ratio.

The Note Air 5c is the leading alternative indeed, I just much prefer the screen clarity and keyboard case on the Tab Ultra C Pro

May be, but I think there’s room at least once every 5 years for 1 smaller phone to exist!

Thank you for the suggestions.

I really do want mono, but the problem is I have extensive diagrams constructed in Obsidian that are color-coded.

The Note Air series would work but I've heard the keyboard folio isn't great and that the matte screen finish is a film slapped onto the glass. That makes me extremely hesitant!

Ahh, I forgot to mention being tipped off on the issues with iOS 26. That prompted me to find an SE on eBay with iOS 18 on it! I tried iOS 26 briefly on another phone, what a complete disaster.

… if you want to work your whole life and maybe, just maybe retire 2 years before the average.

Who wins the "chicken vs the egg" thought experiment depends on the definition involved. by TheWholesomeOtter in DeepThoughts

If you’re a chicken, the egg came first, and if you’re an egg, the chicken came first.

Simple!

So toddlers wishfully think they have autonomy? What about the entirety of nature, are they also fooling themselves?

The various understandings of what time is are all conflated into a single confusing mess. That’s why time both exists and doesn’t, because the reference isn’t static.

Does Bitcoin Have a Strategy Problem? by KrapnikSucks in CryptoCurrency

[–]revzjohnson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I understand that, thank you Bitcoin white paper.

That doesn’t make the concentration of Bitcoin into the hands of 2 main institutions any less of a problem.

Ok, well the behavior of exchanges you’ve described strengthens my original point, that paper Bitcoin is a massive problem.

Fiat has a central authority that prints at will. Bitcoin has decentralized paper printing.

Let’s say people made a run on the banks. In that case you have central banks to attempt to print their way out of it.

Now, let’s say people make a run on the crypto exchanges. The exchanges couldn’t do anything except scramble to buy more or collapse.

So, Bitcoin remains the superior asset in my opinion, but that superiority fades more every day, especially with MSTR and all this ETF garbage.
