I’m unable to choose one of the reaction emoji we have here. :open_mouth: would be the most appropriate, but I knew about this before reading it here, I am not surprised, and “shock” is almost a constant, chronic state for me in the past few years.

Yes … sadly, Germany’s Nazis are becoming increasingly loud and powerful … outrageous! In the state of Saxony-Anhalt they recently got ~42% of the votes … as if we learned nothing from our history. I’m afraid we are moving towards very dark times. And today is different from the 1930s of last century: there is no place to emigrate to, as fascism is raising its ugly head almost everywhere.
And the AfD is so ugly, so dirty, so evil, that even Le Pen and Meloni don’t want anything to do with them. If THAT is not telling, then I don’t know.

Don’t say that:

The Bundeswehr is set to become Europe’s strongest conventional army by 2039. The key points, explained.

As a German comedian (Marion Adrion) pointed out in his show, “right on time for the anniversary”. O_o

By then, the AfD or, whatever other similar party, would have probably taken power, as things are currently going.

There is a way to stop the AfD and all those radical parties either from the right or the left:

Centrism and common sense.

Yeah, good luck with either of that. :upside_down_face:

I wonder how Go App developers could use the folding action for Go Apps.

would be cool to unfold to start reviewing a game.

I tried OGS on the Samsung Fold, but the Clocks were missing.
I hope this form factor works better.

Will playing K10 be less satisfying on a folding phone, as that intersection falls on the crease?

To play on tengen will feel even better!
The crease perfectly matches the shape of your fingertip

Perhaps a year ago, I forget exactly, I considered buying one—virtually the only reason was for playing Go. I couldn’t (and still can’t) bring myself to trust the folding screen tech. Even the store guy opined that the first generation had issues.

Side story

Back in the day I bought a high end Surface. One of the primary features was the detachable screen, but I had issues with it literally from the first time I turned it on. The detachable screen feature was unusable in effect. Yeah, different manufacturer, different tech but I’m not going down that road again.
