foiled again by quick lemmers
There’s a post from two days ago saying tomatoes, you weren’t foiled, you just didn’t bother to read the comments before posting.

One of my favourite things about super was to see the original Goku character come back. A goofy and loveable guy that’s a savant when it comes to fighting and just wants a bigger challenge.
Hercule. Not only is he fucking hilarious but without him the fights against Cell and Buu would have been lost.
In the Cell games he showed incredible bravery to throw 16’s head over to Gohan, enabling Gohan to hear the words he needed to go super sayin 2.
In the Buu saga, he befriended a monster, he showed kindness and compassion that was nearly able to end the fight before it even started. This later caused the good and evil buu’s to split. Without Hercule, Goku would not have been able to power up the spirit bomb that finishes Kid Buu.
Nice. Congratulations to the junior doctors, well deserved.
To be fair, some phones already have that but they have much lower spec cameras/lenses, so it’s currently a trade off.
If a flag ship phone were to find away to implement a flush top spec camera, it would still only be an incremental improvement rather than a great new technology or a substantial innovation.
Yh, I’m not for bailing out companies that are “too big to fail”, I see it as socialism for the rich and capitalism for the poor, but that’s a separate debate.
Tech stocks were a interesting case as they bloated far beyond their actual value during COVID, what happened in 2023 was probably somewhat of a renormalization and now they’re back to business as usual. There will always be peaks and valleys, but I’d be very surprised to see tech stocks fail in the long term.
I’m not going to argue that there has been no progress, just that it’s not on the same scale.
Look at the difference between phones from 2004 to 2014, then from 2014 to 2024 and surely you’d have to agree. We’re looking at huge leaps in tech and innovation Vs much smaller incremental improvements.
And I’d once again like to state that this is not a complaint, just a point of view showing that astonishing amounts of technological innovation are not necessarily required to keep companies in business.
On the contrary, I absolutely appreciate it. I was about 15 when mobile phones first became a thing that everyone owned, so I’ve lived through the entire progression from when they were something only a well to do businessman would have all the way through to today. The first iPhone was 2007, 17 years ago btw.
When mobile phones became popular, each new generation of phones saw HUGE improvements and innovation. However, the last ten years has pretty much just been slight improvements to screen/camera/memory/CPU. Form wise and functionally, they’re very similar to the phone of ten years ago.
I understand that some technophiles will always be able to justify why the new iPhone is worth £1600 and if that’s what they want to spend their money on then good for them, but I personally think that they are kidding themselves. Today you can get a brilliant phone for £300 or even less.

BBC News - Samsung profits jump by more than 900% on chips https://www.bbc.com/news/business-68738046
I agree. Smartphones, for example, have hardly changed at all over the last ten years, but you don’t see Apple and Samsung going out of business.
I remember when running counter strike at 30fps on a 480p monitor meant you had a good computer.
Modern graphics are amazing, but they’re simply not required to have a good gaming experience.
Whilst both forms of processed meat, luncheon meat and spam are not the same things.
I like to buy albums, I think it’s a much better way to support artists than streaming plus I like getting a physical copy, the artwork and the lyrics etc. But that’s another debate and it was more just an example.
P.S. Sorry, the downvote seemed conveniently timed
I don’t understand your reply.
I just don’t want to buy an album based off of one song I heard on the radio and then find out that I don’t like it.
Edit: a downvote and no clarification of what you meant. Thanks I guess. . .
I just view it as a “try before you buy”. I have loads of CDs and DVDs that I wouldn’t have bought if I hadn’t seen how good they were first.
If I try something and don’t like it then I shouldn’t have to pay for it.
If you’re going to dump it at the side of the road, why bag it?
Yh, I feel like there’s more to this case than the article is letting on.
This is an engineering question and engineering questions almost always come down to “do you have enough time and money?”
Since the time scale is two weeks, we only need to know if the Israel had enough resources (bull dozers, wrecking balls, bombs, personnel etc. I don’t have that information, but it doesn’t sound impossible. If a man can be put on the moon, a city could be bulldozed in two weeks.
