Phones are already too big, I need to them to be scaled down so I can actually hold them
Smaller and not the thickness of a piece of paper
A few weeks ago when I decided to replace my HTC One (m10), instead of getting an even bigger phone, I switched to the Sony Xperia XCZ2 Compact.
So far I'm pretty happy with it. It fits my small hands way better and is easier to fit into pockets.

Yeah, I think Sony are the only brand selling phones with top-end internals in a mid-size form factor. Plenty of companies do smaller phones, but they've always got mid-tier hardware in them and that's no good if you're like me and want to keep a phone for as long as is humanly possible, and use it extensively.
Our governmental systems are breaking down so bad that dominoes pizza has to fix our fuckin roads instead of the government we pay our taxes to for that reason.
Yeah it's shitty that it's such a widespread problem but I ain't gonna blame Dominoes for throwing a few bucks at it for the sake of PR.
I will, however, go to their nomination thing and send in my neighborhood in NYC because it amuses me to imagine someone at Dominoes trying to figure out how much that would cost them.
I would probably deface their fuckin' logo they left on the pothole though
if they want to be charitable they could donate funds for road improvements to the cities or do the fills without turning the road into a billboard ad

But that's what really sells it as some cyberpunk dystopia shit. Just random dominoes ads all over the ground
it's a very well-kept secret, but very few cities can actually afford to maintain all their roads in addition to the rest of their infrastructure
and I don't mean, "right now"
I mean that most cities couldn't afford to maintain their roads if they doubled their income
most would have to at least triple it
we just expanded too quickly and too sparsely
It's okay to have dirt roads.
My hometown has some back roads that they started paving a few years back and there's like.. 3 houses stretched over 10 miles on it. It had been a well maintained dirt road up until that point. Not sure why that changed, I guess people wanted to go faster than 30 mph or something? I dunno. But I'm sure that drastically increased the maintenance of that road too.
not a doctor, not a lawyer, examples I use may not be fully researched so don't take out of context plz, don't @ me

well small towns and rural areas can usually manage just fine, because their cores tend to be dense enough that they can collect the taxes they need to keep their busiest roads maintained, since there just aren't very many and they're not so busy that they need to be resurfaced every five years
it's medium- and large-sized cities and suburbs that are in trouble

Not necessarily - maintaining dirt roads is a very intensive process. They need grading and rolling very regularly, and building back up again after every few gradings. Laying asphalt (if done well) weans that road maintenance becomes far less frequent, and is typically just filling cracks after winter for the first few years, then potholes after that.

The winters are extremely rough on our roads. It's not unusual for the high traffic roads to get repaved every 2-3 years up here because of it.
The paved roads that were once gravel/dirt just have giant tears and potholes in them now that the residents just fill with rocks because the county won't do it.

if we shoot the concept of the distance between two points we don't need to travel!
The shortest distance between your hands and the ground better be your entire body, pardner.
It took me far too long to actually understand what you were getting at here.

Well, Dominos used to be worse - at least they're spending money on something useful instead of the owner's insane far-right cultish Catholic town in Florida.
Because of course it's in Florida.

Where's the escape hatch for this nightmare
Oh dam dominoes makin that play for dystopian mega corp status... bold strategy pizza guy.
If the government cannot do it and instead your local (multinational) pizza parlor has to what the fuck are we doing as a society

Time to learn to use a desoldering pump! The old PLA isn't socketed so I gotta remove it from the board and add a socket to put the new one in.
Also the new 6510 is going to take forever to show up because it's shipping from china.
