Not to mention that they're now competing with fake AI slop videos. People don't have so much interest to record their sporting achievements anymore since the video no longer serves as social proof.

He’s good at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory

Rather than actually getting real on China and their abuse of the postal system, it’s all about tarrifs on penguins.

Biden did far more with the chips act, but rather than building on that trunk failed to enact any meaningful change. And of course make billions in the side from bribery.

Imagine if he had effectively coordinated with Mexico, Canada and the EU to curb Chinese trade practices.

I don't see a use case for these cameras. Phone takes amazing pictures and videos and is always on hand and if I need something more polished, I just get DSLR. Sure DSLR is more expensive, but if I want to do something well, I'd rather go all in.

When you want to film your kid jumping into a pool (from inside the pool), do you do it with your phone or with your DSLR?

Phone

It doesn't work, as one can't control a wet screen with wet fingers.

The use case is niche but there. I ride mountain bikes and off-road motorcycles and have a GoPro on my helmet. A phone is the wrong form factor and a DSLR is too heavy.

Same with surfers, or people who race cars etc. Having a physically small camera, with robust mounting and stabilization is not something a phone in a gimbal or a "real camera" can provide.

Who is mounting a DSLR on bike, helmet, chest? Taking it in the ocean, etc.
