I find it hilarious. Good job!

One of the current theories in astronomy is that the universe is ever expanding (and the expansion speed is increasing at that). This will eventually lead to a heat death of the universe (i.e., Big Freeze). In such a scenario I cannot imagine how consciousness can arise / propagate.

A contrary theory is that that the universe would reach a point where it would bounce back and reverse this expansion process (i.e., it will contract). In such a scenario the universe would have infinite cycles of expansion and contraction (assuming infinite time) leading to infinite many exact states of the universe (in this infinite time line).

Another theory suggests that there are infinite many parallel universes to ours. This should also imply that at any given moment in time there are infinite many states of parallel universes that are exactly the same as the state of our universe right now.

An interesting aspect of the parallel universe theory and its implications for consciousness is that at any given time we would be “sharing” consciousness with infinite many other beings.

I’ve asked Bing AI to provide me with a list of “budget Android smartphones in 2023”. Additionally, I’ve asked it to “consider … new releases as well as flagship smartphones from previous years that can be still purchased new or are available on the secondhand market”. This is why you see flagship phones from 2021 that after price cuts are matching mid-range phones from 2023 in price and may be even better performance / build quality wise.

Before giving me an answer, Bing performed a Web search. You can see the sources that it used in my comment under the post.

I have also found inaccuracies and this is why I gave Bing a chance to redeem itself by asking it: “Is there something that you’ve missed mentioning about each phone? Are there any inaccuracies in the information that you’ve provided?”. You can find the inaccuracies that it found at the end of the article.

It is still not perfect and you still have to do your own research but I found Bing AI (Chat GPT) particularly useful for finding and summarizing user experiences such as: “some users have reported issues with the fingerprint sensor, the phone overheating, and the battery draining faster than expected” or “some users have experienced lagging and stuttering performance, especially when multitasking or gaming. The phone also has a low-resolution display, a mediocre speaker, and a slow fingerprint sensor. Some users also find the software bloated and cluttered with Samsung’s apps and features.”

Honestly I feel that the android community here on lemmy is more active than the r/android subreddit before the lockdown

Asus Zenfone 9 and Xiaomi Poco F5 are also viable options

browse.feddit.de is also a good resource

tbh before reading your comment I had no idea that there are other kbin instances

While my first suggestion would have been a Pixel phone as well here are some alternatives

OnePlus 10T

Xiaomi Poco F5

Xiaomi Poco F5 Pro

Xiaomi 12T Pro

Nothing Phone 2 (launching on July 11)

Boost user here, yes please!

Please, share this with your friends and family

If there was a c/ThreadKillers community this deserves to be posted there

If possible, contribute also to the Wikipedia page

I am all on board with the idea. If someone has connections to mods from r/IAmA please reach out to them for help and let’s make it happen (here on lemmy / kbin)

In the mean time comment and upvote this post to spread the word.

Thank you for the explanations and tips. As someone who joined a few days ago I find them very helpful.

Will be using both for now until more people jump ship
