[@charleslaferriere2282]

37:59 This is actually great. I never been interested into folding phone because I feel like you cant have a great form factor for both the open and the closed state of a phone. You have to choose between a vertically long phone closed with a good form factor for movies while open, or a normal phone closed with a square phone while opened with giant bezels when watching a movie. But with a triple folding phone you would have all that, plus its a single screen that covers the whole phone, I like that!

Screenshots: They could've done it on google photos easily. What would've been difficult is separate that UI for pixel users and non pixel users. So they probably went with a different app. When they do decide to make it available for everyone, they'll probably bring it inside the photos app.

[@akr4s1a]

Woof, I think the ProCreate segment is a huge huge miss. It feels like so much of the segment was missing the point that artists want to create themselves, there are no advancements in Generative AI whether by ethical sourcing of data or improvements to performance that would make me incorporate it. By and large, artists would not "flock" to an animation app where you can draw the first and last frame and generate everything in between. I love art and my art because I put my effort in to make it, the room there is for ML tools is like the ink lines from Spider-Verse which is a perfect example of a movie where a single frame being generative would take something away.

[@melissa.deklerk]

"up to 5x" Marques: "what kinda psycho...?" 😂😂😂 Exactly my thoughts. Who's listening at 5x That must be horrible to try and follow. I very rarely go 2x. But I do absolutely listen to KZbin in the car on my commutes. Many waveform episodes have been on the road. But then there's the many occasions I was wishing I was watching, just to catch facial reactions or to see if something is being shown. Then I'll go rewind to that particular place to watch the video when I arrive at home/work. Cool discussion idea, Andrew. I like that you asked the question. It's interesting to hear how other people consume content. And you're right, there's not enough time to watch all the videos I want to watch.

What are your thoughts on tri-folding devices? I remain preferential to the G Flex and not to the S Flex - I find projecting the folding display to be quite a great idea. It may be a bit semantical to say this, but it is technically a dual-folding device, since the Folds and Flips of the word are uni-folding devices.

[@PSYCHOV3N0M]

There's no semantics at all. It's not a Tri-Fold. It's a Bi-Fold. 2 hinges = Bi-Fold. Companies are so stupid and desperate to sound like their tech is more advanced than it is. To call the new Huawei phone a Tri-Fold is to call the Galaxy Z Fold 6 a Bi-Fold which is factually incorrect.

[@CurtisDishman]

@@chxtman I just returned from using the S24U for a few months, my opinion, android is very very clunky still. Its smooth and snappy in performance but design language feels like theres multiple interpretations going on and overlaying making the experience worse than it could be. Where IOS is a bit more unified and better thought out imo.

[@Letstalkcod]

That's because you're using a samsung and they have a soft UI overlay on top of Android. Pixels are bone stock android and very close to I.O.S in ui​@@CurtisDishman

[@JMurph2015]

​@@CurtisDishman but iOS notification display is such garbage, it's unbelievable they haven't cleaned that up over the years. On Android you get nice grouped notifications, while on iOS it's just all over the place. Sure you get fewer notifications on iOS generally because of the "no notifications by default" policy, but on Android you can even choose which types of notifications an app can display.

[@CurtisDishman]

@@JMurph2015 I used to think android had superior notifications. But after my experience I actually prefer ios just a bit. I like that its grouped based off time, so its kind of a mini timeline. But I’m also a chaotic person when it comes to organization so I will have that caveat out there. I also found that with Samsung the way you interact with different notification groups to be a bit clunky and not the most refined experience (my Pixel 8 pro I think handles notifications really well and feels more refined though). My time retuning to android full time made me see a few things that I thought android did better was not the case though

[@CurtisDishman]

@@JMurph2015 also want to add, any issues I might have with android I know I can resolve with fixes, but I don’t want to do that and put the time and effort into tweaking an experience id prefer it “just working”.

You also are aware that, Google could've added a screenshot section in the photo's app and just do the seperation there, right?
