Yeah it’s the plastic around the hinge that breaks on the DS, it was much worse on the originals than on the DS lites.

The biggest issue with the folding phones though is that folding the screen in half is going to cause wear and tear on the display and it makes it easier for it to break along the seam. Only way I could see a folding phone working is if it had two separate screens like a DS/3DS.

I don’t have an issue with phones being too big for pockets since I have plenty of room in my pockets, even for relatively large phones.

My friend had a foldable and it died simply from opening and closing it too much. Not dirt, dust or water damage it just broke because the folding part of the screen wore out.

As someone who Had a Nintendo DS and 3DS it certainly seems like a cool idea but they also had the problem of the hinges breaking rendering them useless, this is much worse on the folding phones where the display itself bends in half and can literally wear out just from opening and closing, rendering the phone next to useless, the DS handheld gaming systems didn’t even have that problem.

For that reason I really don’t like them and can’t really get behind them. I prefer my devices to last to obsolescence (a ripe old age) and be durable, folding screen phones are not that whatsoever. If I wanted a bigger screen I’d rather just have a bigger phone honestly, or be able to dock it in a laptop like enclosure.

I don’t know but it looks very tasty.

I only ever use this PC for Searching stuff, social media, watching videos, and typing documents or spreadsheets it’s a trash-picked Chromebook which I put Debian on using the coreboot thing. I did set the drive to encrypt with LUKS on install so I haven’t been super worried about them being read from the disk, although I probably will switch to Bitwarden or something else soon since Sync is starting to have problems for me, some passwords no longer syncing from Firefox desktop to Firefox Android, which is a bit annoying and could potentially get me in a jam if something happened to this laptop and I couldn’t get back in.

I’m probably going to get grilled for this but I’ve Been using Firefox’s Saved passwords, I really don’t need anything better.

We call ourselves lemmings? That’s new information to me, though I guess it would make sense. Lemons is better though.
