I remember when they compared the iPhone 4 camera to a full sized DSLR…with a straight face.

Yeah, why on my OnePlus 9 pro, is the fucking camera bump so thick I can't sit the phone down flat without a case. It's such shit design, I hate it.

Oh does PiHole/DNS blocking work??? I thought you would get big blank boxes instead. Being loyal to one brand just doesn't make any sense at all. LGs good at Oleds, so I got one from them. PC wise I have a lot of ASUS, my phone is OnePlus after I had a bad experience with the Samsung S3 and S5.. I couldn't be happier, since I ditched Samsung completely.
Yes definitely. Samsung makes everything, they can't be good at everything, no one is.

That's a fair point about the menus. Mine aren't annoying slow, but they definitely aren't instant, either, unless it's volume etc. I also forgot about the ads, as I block those at the router, but yeah, that's a bit shitty, too. I'm certainly not a brand loyalist. I'll just get the best in my budget at the time. Last couple times that's been Samsung.
Makes sense to judge a brand on their individual product lines, rather than the entire brand, as they will often do some products better than others.

yep they are pretty good but ive checked out a few of those and similar over the years, theyre always a couple gens behind and a little too thick/heavy
somewhere in between; an extra 2mm on a s22u with double battery mah would be perfect. even less robust to make it lighter, plastic back.. i can dream 🤣

I remember i used to have an LG phone before. With the pen and all. I hope they get back to the top! A lot of people were asking about my LG phone in 2017 plus their phones dont cost as much but does the job done.

I used to love LG flagships until I had to literally bake my motherboard to recover my data in two consecutive generations (G3/G4)

I had two Samsung's. They had REALLY big latency (I pressed something on the remote and it literally took 3-5 seconds). This was especially annoying in menus. And overall just bad (e.g. ads in menus?!) Then I got a LG OLED and it runs like on the first day. He is 5 years old now. Yeah definitely, HP is a printer company, that's like buying a apple car. Good way of thinking!

Samsung TVs I've never had an issue with. They tend to last me pretty well (never replaced one due to a fault), but I wouldn't get a Samsung phone. Same way I'll buy an HP printer, but not an HP laptop.

lol, they were never "IN-STOCK". At least, not the way you think. They were in-stock for about 1 minute, at best.
Did those E-mails happen to tell you how MANY those site had in-stock? Having 1 or 1,000 both qualify as in-stock.
I had to follow a YT channel and Discord server that are made specifically to scrape most large retailers for in-stock 4090's. Every time one comes in stock, It goes out of stock within seconds. And whenever a site got any in-stock, It was only ever in small batches, And they'd space out the sale of them too. If they got 20 cards in, They'd sell 5 at a time, and drop each set of 5 like 10 - 20 minutes apart.

Weird—never noticed that. Maybe because I had it in a case the whole time.

So, like Sony has been doing for a couple of generations now?

You're looking for the brand Ulefone. They offer phones that'll last days on a single charge. The Power Armor 13 Pro even could be purchased with an attachable endoscope.

Go there, turn on volume. They alert you with audio, then post a link in the chat whenever a product they are watching comes instock.
Also, if you join their discord server, http://restockwatch.com/discord and Then scroll down to the 4090 channel, They are usually a few seconds faster at posting the link in Discord, as the YT video is about 30 seconds behind.
I was only on the YT channel and Discord for 2 days, before I got myself a Zotac 4090. It wasn't my preferred card, but it is a 4090.
EDIT: I should say, I got lucky. There are people that were sitting in the YT chat for weeks, trying to get a card. But they didn't use the discord channel, so I suspect that's why they could never get a card to go through the cart. So me getting a card in 2 days seems to be a bit of a rare / lucky case. OH and FYI, if you try this, Make sure you are already logged into the sites ( Amazon, Newegg, BestBuy etc..) and have your address and payment info already stored in their store. If you have to log-in whenever you try to buy one, or have to enter your CC info...you will NEVER get one.

Oh ok, but the burning batteries of Samsung, the poor quality and the software that makes your phone go dead after 3 years doesn't matter to anyone.. especially if you're talking TVs, Samsung is trash.. the world really is twisted

I can definitely see the appeal if pop-up cameras made good on their promises of durability. Probably deserved a better chance than we gave them.

It's sad that they won't have a flagship of their own to put them in though. I've rode with the V60 since it came out, and the V50/V40 before that. I dunno what it was for me, but I've always found them just perfect. Their Android skin is well made and not all that different from stock. Their displays have always been bright, with good color balance. I've got some big hands, so their size was just right, the V60 even more so. The V60's manual camera is phenomenal, too. Tbf, there are no phones on the market right now that I'm even remotely interested in. I'm just gonna ride this one out till it craps out, probably.
