  • Kinda, but nowadays it's all filtered in so even in a mass market supermarket you can get some decent ingredients. Like anything else not common to the local palate, you have to pay. Kale is ridiculously expensive, for example.

  • If you're worried about authenticity, probably compare notes with native cooks, but more importantly, check to see if the ingredients are correct. Very easy to get bastardised ingredients; as an example, living in an Asian country, I used to have a hell of a time getting the right herbs and vegetables for doing certain Western dishes with, and very common to get some pre-packaged "mix" of herbs instead.

  • It's just trends/fashion, I don't get why algorithms are to blame? I read the whole long ass article but I don't really find a compelling argument. It's just how trends work. The algorithms of now speed it up, but it's no different from anything in this connected day and age; I used to only hear of new PC announcements in a month (when the next issue of PC Magazine hit my mail box), now I can get it within the minute of announcement.

  • I'm sure there'll only be people who read the headlines, so here's what's going on:

    Overall shipments decreased by 40 million, but there were two companies who made gains within the top 5: Apple, who shipped 8 million units more, and Transsion, who shipped 22 million units more. Samsung dropped 40 million units, similar to the overall shipments. Looks like Transsion made the most of it during this dip, taking away marketshare from other Android phone makers.

  • Really love this community, so one-dimensional and not willing to accept alternate views, and can't wait to twist words in people's mouth to make themselves feel better intellectually superior.

    Good luck in growing this community.

  • Points 1, 2 and 3 are practically non-existent in the hobbyist mechanical keyboard space. You might get a few 100% boards but open floating design is not favoured, and passthrough is considered unnecessary.

  • To talk about the article instead of ranting on about niche wants:

    • 7 years of updates would be really good. Given how mature the hardware is nowadays, I can see a phone doing 7 years, save for the battery. Will Samsung be able to keep batteries in production?
    • I'm less sold on the AI things, I guess that's the buzzword now. AI AI AI everywhere. Also the two features mentioned are already in Google products, and I'd rather use those if I have to, unless Samsung pulls out a surprise and show that they are better at software development than Google is.
  • Which Chinese phone does that? They were the first to copy Apple when they removed all that. The only ones that still have card slots and headphone jacks are all the low-end phones, and heck, even those are going away. Xiaomi has been removing the card slots on the higher-end Redmi Notes.

  • So so so many. Right off the top of my head:

    • Guild Wars Season 2, one of the later missions. It was stealth gameplay. I hate stealth. Paid someone 100g to run it for me.
    • FTL's boss.
    • Warframe's Glassmaker season fight with Nihil.
    • Currently, Ace Combat 7's Pipeline Destruction.
  • It's going to be loud regardless, especially since the Navies have a thicker bar AND you'll be using more force to get past it and the heavier spring.

    And yes, they're heavy. I like heavy switches (really hate anything less than 50g), but even those were a little tiring to type on the first time. You will need to get used to typing on them.

    Will echo the other suggestion made, get a tester pack first.

  • The animations showing the transformation of a page into a blah-SEO clone really sold the article for me. Really reminds me of how shitty the "modern" web is nowadays. I also think it's time I signed up for Kagi.
