    I live in a hot, humid environment. Keeping bread in the fridge helps it to stay good for multiple weeks. If I leave it out, it molds way quicker. I also sometimes will store bread in the freezer to keep it fresh even longer if I know I’m just going to make toast out of it.



  • Similar experience but with an absolutely massive cockroach (“Palmetto bug” for those wondering the scale). I freaked the fuck out lol. I thought my arm was just itchy but it didn’t go away and I looked down and started flailing everywhere.

    Sometimes I have an itchy feeling and get paranoid that there is a bug on me. And there almost never is so usually I ignore it. But occasionally there actually is a bug on me so I’m not just imagining!


  • Yes. The Flip 5 has a different cover screen than the 3. It’s significantly larger. Just look up a a photo comparison of how significantly different they are. Yes, you can run literally any app or APK file from the cover screen on the Flip 5. The ones I use most are Discord, Spotify, YouTube, Google Messages, Voyager, my notes app, and Red Reader (Reddit).

    Sometimes they can be a bit buggy or don’t function very well (esp games), so I don’t like using certain apps on the cover screen.

    The only caveat is you need to install a free app by Samsung called Good Lock from the Galaxy Store first. Evidently it is not available in certain regions. In these regions, then yes, the cover screen functionality is locked down to only a few approved apps.



  • I have the Flip 5 and I am able to run full apps on the cover screen, not just Samsung approved ones

    The annoying thing is that this feature is just not enabled by default. You have to download an extra (free) app from Samsung that unlocks the full app support on the cover screen. It’s called Good Lock and it’s in Samsung’s Galaxy Store instead of the Play Store.

    Not sure why they do this…I guess because they don’t want the average user to think that the cover screen will feel buggy if they try to run a non optimized app on it.

    Bro I get company shills exist, but that’s a big level of paranoia right there.

    I swear, some people on the internet act as if you even mention a company name, that you’re some sort of paid corporate shill. No, man, sometimes I just talk about every day things in my life lol.



  • Yeah I agree with the person you’re responding to. For some reason, a lot of companies are really getting into researching the larger folding phones…the ones that unfold from a regular phone into a tablet.

    And there is definitely a market for these phones, sure. But they are incredibly expensive and not everyone who is interested in a folding phone really wants a phone-tablet combo or the pricetag to match.

    I’m not sure why more companies aren’t trying to make the “collapsing phone” style of folding phones like Samsung’s Z Flip or the Motorola Razr. There is a big market there and you’re limiting yourself as a company if you only are researching the phone-tablet style folding devices like Google is doing.
