    I don’t play Poker, so maybe one of you can explain this to me, because I’m not sure I understand this. If you go all-in and lose, your chips go to the other players. This means that, if you wanted to buy new chips and re-enter the game, you would need to buy more chips after each loss, because you need enough chips to force the other players who don’t fold to go all-in in order to beat them (and those players now have more chips).

    Did I get this right? Because if I do, then this insane spiral of self-inflating risk really isn’t the flattering analogy that Musk fanboys probably think it is.

    Also, do actual Poker tables even allow you to get back into a game that you lost when you come back with more chips? This seems implausible to me, because that would indeed be vulnerable to this “pay-to-win” strategy.

    When generating PDFs via pandoc, Markdown can contain any LaTeX directive, including packages in the preamble and any environments in the document. Pandoc converts the .md file into a .tex file based on the template you chose, and it allows both saving the .tex file and writing your own templates.



  • I feel like most of these are at least misleading if not outright false (or maybe I’m misunderstanding them, so please correct me if I do).

    • Allow custom ROMs: It does, and there is even a Google-free variant they sell on their store.
    • Dual SIM and SD card slot: There may not be dual slots, but there is Dual SIM (one physical, one eSIM), and I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a phone with multiple SD card slots.
    • Programmable “moments” button: The button is not programmable per se, but there are different settings to make it do different things.
    • No dumb accessories: If you don’t find them useful, don’t buy them?
    • Headphone jack: Fair enough, I do miss that one, but the USB-C with an adapter works okay, and I’m still using the same headphones that I’ve used for years.
