Every cellphone made after 04 was a mistake
tech/science swag. 
On-Topic: Anything that good slackers would find interesting. That includes more than /g/ memes and slacking off. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual laziness.
Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably lame.
Help keep this hole healthy by keeping drama and NOT drama balanced. If you see too much drama, post something that isn't dramatic. If there isn't enough drama and this hole has become too boring, POST DRAMA!
Please do things to make titles stand out, like using uppercase or exclamation points, or saying how great an article is. It should be explicit in submitting something that you think it's important.
Please don't submit the original source. If the article is behind a paywall, just post the text. If a video is behind a paywall, post a magnet link. Fuck journos.
Please don't ruin the hole with chudposts. It isn't funny and doesn't belong here. THEY WILL BE MOVED TO /H/CHUDRAMA
If the title includes the name of the site, please leave that in, because our users are too stupid to know the difference between a url and a search query.
If you submit a video or pdf, please don't warn us by appending [video] or [pdf] to the title. That would be r-slurred. We're not using text-based browsers. We know what videos and pdfs are.
Make sure the title contains a gratuitous number or number + adjective. Good clickbait titles are like "Top 10 Ways to do X" or "Don't do these 4 things if you want X"
Otherwise editorialize. Please don't use the original title, unless it is gay or r-slurred, or you're shits all fucked up.
If you're going to post old news (at least 1 year old), please flair it so we can mock you for living under a rock, or don't and we'll mock you anyway.
Please don't post on SN to ask or tell us something. Send it to [email protected] instead.
If your post doesn't get enough traction, try to delete and repost it.
Please don't use SN primarily for promotion. It's ok to post your own stuff occasionally, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity. If you want to astroturf or advertise, post on news.ycombinator.com instead.
Please solicit upvotes, comments, and submissions. Users are stupid and need to reminded to vote and interact. Thanks for the gold, kind stranger, upvotes to the left.
Be snarky. Don't be kind. Have fun banter; don't be a dork. Please don't use big words like "fulminate". Please sneed at the rest of the community.
Comments should get more enlightened and centrist, not less, as a topic gets more divisive.
If disagreeing, please reply to the argument and call them names. "1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be improved to "1 + 1 is 3, not 2, mathfaggot"
Please respond to the weakest plausible strawman of what someone says, not a stronger one that's harder to make fun of. Assume that they are bad faith actors.
Eschew jailbait. Paedophiles will be thrown in a wood chipper, as pertained by sitewide rules.
Please post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. All press is good press.
Please use Slacker News for political or ideological battle. It tramples weak ideologies.
Please comment on whether someone read an article. If you don't read the article, you are a cute twink.
Please pick the most provocative thing in an article or post to complain about in the thread. Don't nitpick stupid crap.
Please don't be an unfunny chud. Nobody cares about your opinion of X Unrelated Topic in Y Unrelated Thread. If you're the type of loser that belongs on /h/chudrama, we may exile you.
Sockpuppet accounts are encouraged, but please don't farm dramakarma.
Please use uppercase for emphasis.
Please post deranged conspiracy theories about astroturfing, shilling, bots, brigading, foreign agents and the like. It degrades discussion and is usually mistaken. If you're worried about abuse, email [email protected] and dang will add you to their spam list.
Please don't complain that a submission is inappropriate. If a story is spam or off-topic, report it and our moderators will probably do nothing about it. Feed egregious comments by replying instead of flagging them like a pussy. Remember: If you flag, you're a cute twink.
Please don't complain about tangential annoyances—things like article or website formats, name collisions, or back-button breakage. That's too boring, even for HN users.
Please seethe about how your posts don't get enough upvotes.
Please don't post comments saying that rdrama is turning into ruqqus. It's a nazi dogwhistle, as old as the hills.
We reserve the right to exile you for whatever reason we want, even for no reason at all!

This hole is a janny playground, participation implies enthusiastic consent to being janny abused by unstable alcoholic bullies and loser nerds who have nothing better to do than banning you for any reason or no reason whatsoever.

Lame
Yea I probably have and finger print readers do seem neat. Any recommendations for what my next phone should be? I also plan on keeping this one for 8+ years

Z Fold right now, IMO.
Samsung spent several years shrinking storage on their flagships (still more than other Android OEMs, less than Apple), but the Fold 4 finally has a 1TB SKU.
The screen js excellent and is well built. My old Fold 2 I got 3 years ago still works, I don't think longevity is a major issue.
OneUI is fast, and the ADB overscan command Google deprecated (lets you force immerisve mode 24/7 ro hide status and nav bar) still works in OneUI.
You have a proper multi-window app mode (3 windows at once), with Goodlock modules a real sound mixer like a desktop OS, Samsung's stock apps including the browser are the best of their kind on Android too.
The Goodlock modules are legitimately insane they're as versatile as the xposed framework I used to have to root for. You can create custom navigation button icons, new buttons, and all the stuff gravitybox used to be required for with root.
Bixby routines are kind of like native tasker, too.
The Fold's screen can basically do two 6" 2:1 screens side by side for multiwindow.
The onlh downside versus something like the Pixel is the camera for photography. The lag is awful there. I also keep an iPhone and use Airmessage to sync my imessage with my Fold.
If it only had an SD card and all the other removed hardware features (IR blaster, MST, headphone jack), it'd be my favorite phone ever. Hopefully the Fold 5 adopts an 8" 4:3 screen. My only other gripe is the screen still being 8% smaller than a traditional mini tablet. It's still twice the surface area of a regular 6.7" elongated aspect ratio phone, though.

holy shit really? That's insane!
BASED! Fr fricks google and their "UI is part of security" bullshit. They don't even ship a per app firewall by default

There was a 1TB S10+ with an SD card slot, too, so you could have 2TB total.
That was 4 years ago, Samsung spent 3 years shrinking storage on all their phones. 1TB was long overdue. I want 2TB like the iPad Pro. Generally Android OEMs take 2-3 years for Apple's bigger sizes to trickle down. The iphone 7 had 256GB in 2016, that's a size most Android phones still max out today.
Yes, lmao. Google does a lot of bullshit. Every Pixel has had them explicitly disable display port alt mode on the type c port to prevent physical video out. Google does so kuch stupid bullshit.
