BlackCoffee

Serious, what is the point?

The momentum to actually make a stand was after that 48 hours. Some subs actually made a stand but more than enough were happy with the status quo.

Are they gonna do another timed blackout or weak sauce post restriction strike?

It is "insane" over here in the Netherlands also;

• MC donalds "standard" menu; +-/ 15 Euros (used to be around 8-10 euros)
• Dominos Pizza medium "special"; 15+ Euros (used to be around 10 euros for the same pizza)

It's already close to a price hike of 50+ percent.

Went out to dinner with a few friends to a Korean BBQ place; 40 euros for all you can eat per person. It was nice but the amount of food that one should eat to get to the 40 euro treshhold is insane. I think I ate for a maximum of 15 euros of food.

Other places also aggressively jacked up their prices for the exact same menu and quality (or lack of). I just cannot be arsed anymore to eat out.

The new fastfood prices are getting closer to the restaurant prices pre inflation. I don't see any incentive to actually pay those prices for the lack of quality of the food.

I also see that the same fastfood chains 'quietly' implemented shrinkflation in regards of toppings or portion sizes so one gets screwed over double.

I liked to get some fastfood once or twice every 2 weeks, but I just cannot be bothered anymore.

the kicker is that for that 15 euros worth of fastfood I can get close to a weeks of selfcooked dinner.

I already see some grocery stores actually lowering the prices of certain items and aggressively put items on huge discounts.

Define "a few weeks"

The blackout started 12-06 which is 2 + weeks ago.

Lemmy and Kbin are still here and I see no sign of it slowing down. I see much more posts with more engagement which is a good thing.

How do you like it?

Been deciding between an Xperia 1V and s23 ultra.

I had a Z Fold 2 for 2+ years before selling it and it was a great phone overall. Didn't feel like the technology "wasn't there yet" but it felt like a full fledged product and the built quality was really top notch.

What i agree with is that indeed the inner screen is a gimmick or the foldable idea itself. I found myself using the inner screen mostly for streaming and using the outer screen for literally anything else. Which meant that for 95% of the time I used the outer screen.

I think the Flip series has a way better usecase for a foldable because the fold Idea reduces the size of the "normal way of use" product.

I think the Fold expands on the "normal way of use" so it is easier put it in the gimmick territory.

I still think it is better to just get an Phone + Tablet overall if you want the best of both worlds.

But to be clear, this has been my experience as having had the Z fold 2 as a daily driver for 2+ years.

I am spoiled haha. I had an realme x2 pro since 2018 or 19 and that was already 50watts.

Also got the Realme Gt 5G as an replacement 2 years ago which is 65 watts.

Anything below 50watts seems slow in comparison haha ;).

I see!

I understand for me the big point is the update policy. Just 2 years of OS updates is dissapointing, same as the 30Watt max charger.

But indeed the Headphone jack and SD card functionality are such a big plus.

Thanks for the input!
