I mean I wouldn’t look at this as a laptop replacement, just something I could use that way in a pinch. Lots of clamshell phones in the early 2000’s had this layout and it worked pretty well.

If you really wanted to use this as a laptop much better to carry another little folding keyboard with you.

It’s always been there somewhere in the shadows, but that was the first time I saw it happening out in the open.

I left the US after Bush Jr was elected and it was the best decision of my life. That’s when fascism started it’s slow ramp up in the USA

Paywall

How about we make you a target, Vladdy? See how you like it?

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

And pretty rich.

It would be nice if one of the folds could be left folded at the bottom to give you a keyboard.

Well it could also just depend on some mechanism that we haven’t discovered yet. Even if we could technically reproduce it, we don’t understand it and haven’t managed to just stumble into it and may not for a very long time.

I would if I could.

I think they should give it a go.

It’s not all text. But I think most of it is scanned docs based on what’s been released so far.

They are doing it because it was looking like they would get the signatures in congress to force the release of the full archives despite speaker Mike Johnson blocking the vote on it. Now they are trying to take the wind out of the sails out of that movement. The best whistleblower would be congress itself.

There are more than 300 gigabytes of Epstein files confirmed by the DOJ. If we are generous and say all these 33,000 pages are stored as images rather than text, they probably aren’t more than 25gb. And 97% of them were already public.

Yeah it didn’t feel quite “right”. More filmy, less moisturizing.

Epic!

I’m not saying people don’t have sex as they get older (though there is ample evidence out there that they tend to have less). I’m saying that women are less likely to put up with a broke ass older man than a young stud. As you get older you become more prized as a breadwinner than you do as just a toy boy.

Again is dependent a lot on your age.

Then you are young

But, my own theory is that sex is one of the cheapest forms of entertainment available to humanity (if you don’t factor in the costs of children). So the citizens of these wealthier countries are spending their time and money doing other things. Not just skii vacations or going yachting, but reading books and watching TV.

Spoken like a man who’s never tried to get laid. Sex is expensive. Dressing nicely, being fit, being financially well off enough to attract a girl in the first place, then entertaining them, taking them out, etc. It’s not easy to pull off if you are poor. Especially when compared to free porn on tap and the stagnation of the middle and lower classes for decades.
