Me looking at your username

It absolutely blew my mind when TechnologyConnections shared the % of users who use the subscription page to get to their videos...

Beautiful

Looks interesting - how is the game loop since it's a rogue-like? Tedious, or does it feel pretty rewarding?

I'm not sure they're really comparable.

That phones 2nd display was: 1040x160 pixels

The main display was: 2560x1440

~4%

The 2nd display also couldn't display another app, but was limited to:

• Quick Tools (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth)
• App shortcuts (specific apps)
• Recent apps
• Quick contacts
• Music controls
• Signature (By default your name)
• Upcoming plans

And didn't allow inline replies or 'normal' notification features (at that time it was Android 7).

The one perk that phone did have was that the 2nd display could be on while the main screen was off.

Thanks for sharing the review!

Did you end up using eBay to buy it or another site? I've only seen a few listed, and the prices vary pretty severely.

Bummer about the fingerprint sensor location - but luckily not a huge deal. Overall it seems like a decent enough phone if you want a keyboard.

I have a dollar or two to spare

Game informer is back‽ Exciting

Does it come in red? 😂

Definitely though, might need to look around

Agreed! Not even my favorite color, but it looks so good on a phone.

Emsiar D2!

F4mi is great, definitely check out the web-cam video when you have a chance! One of my favorites

I enjoyed this, thanks for posting!

Valid point, good clarification!

$70M "vanishes" to print pennies each year as it costs nearly 4¢ to make 1 penny. (Doesn't actually vanish, some goes to penny maker's pockets* - see reply below)

Does the president really have the power to stop penny printing?

Maybe.

The president is to execute laws passed by congress. Congress passes vague laws.

One example is what coins to print. However, how many to print is left out, just that it should be "the necessary amount"

So Trump decided that the necessary amount was 0.

However, if Congress disagrees with the interpretation, then it goes to the courts.

The courts will ask if there is a precedent.. which for the penny specifically - there isn't really.

Existing precedent is about rarely used speciality / collector coins which previous presidents used the same method to reduce / eliminate production.

So maybe this will kill the penny, but also maybe not. If it does kill the penny, it could set an interesting precedent for future presidents to kill off anything congress hasn't been explicit on.

... I hope all my president / precedents are correct lol.

Why can't this be the timeline where Bill and Ted bring peace and harmony (and mini golf scores way down).
