I don’t know what this is
With my experience in repairing smartphones, I’ve found that those with curved edge displays are the most susceptible. I remember when the s7 edge launched, a ton of those phones got the green lines across the screen. So I’d imagine phones with folding screens are also more susceptible to this damage.
In the article, the two phones mentioned have either a curved edge or a folding screen. It seems that any curve or fold in the OLED display makes it easier to damage.
That’s cool, hope all goes well with the upgrade! Same to any other servers upgrading today.
“Xtreme programming practices”.
Lmao what!
Programming class at school when I was 15. Basic Delphi/object pascal back then. Was always into technology beforehand, especially tinkering with the first android phones, rooting them and installing custom ROMs
You’re going to have to use what people around you use. Weather it’s Whatsapp, Instagram groups, whatever. That is part of life. I’m forced to use WhatsApp because it’s what everyone in my country uses. The alternative is having no contact with anybody.
Is this the most privacy friendly approach? No, of course not. But we all have to make compromises to live in the modern world, and this is one of them.
Surprised by C# and Java. People always moan that they have too much boilerplate code and something else about how OOP sucks and that makes these languages too verbose, yet they’re close to the top of the chart here for least characters used on average.
I think instance level blocking from the user side is coming soon™, so that should help if you want to avoid us.
In general I don’t think taking internet arguments with strangers so seriously is helpful or healthy. And before I get accused of hypocrisy, I’ve called out dunk tank posts on hexbear for similar reasons.
That’s actually pretty cool.
My username was just me randomly mashing the keyboard, yours actually has some meaning haha
If there ever was a time for anti snitch culture to actually make a comeback…
Hexbear was defederated from Lemmy dot world before we even enabled federation from our side. We’ve literally never been able to post there.
I’m sorry about that happening. I think a lot of hexbear users just comment on every instance as if they’re on hexbear, which has a very unique culture that will definitely seem extremely weird to outsiders. I remember first joining the site after subreddit bans and getting into some arguments over that.
I have been trying to tell other users (I’m just a normal user myself) to beware when they are on other instances and to tone down the “trolling” and similar antics. I hope the new rules around federation, as well as an upcoming emote scaling fix, can facilitate that.
Wish your instance (and other instances we are federated with) the best of luck on the fediverse.
Really? Come on that is just uncalled for
Our wild emotes showing up on other instances must be something lol
Yeah I agree with you there I’ve experienced the same, it’s almost always a Samsung with an OLED screen and curved edges, that gets dropped with a hard impact on one of the corners.
