   Who's actually making 5.5" phones to prove that though apart from the iphone 13 mini? These chinese phones often tend to be 4" instead of 5.5" and often come with with massive downsides like awful cameras or being very

   All I ask for is a slightly smaller phone or a thicker phone with better battery life. Why are manufacturers so intent on not doing that?

    I read an article lately claiming that supermarket shops were down by a fraction of a percent due to ozempic. Way down the article it then considered that it may be due to the massively increasing cost of food

    Purely anecdotally, but we had a US team member visit us in the UK and his understanding of food quality was purely driven by size and not quality. It didn't matter whether it was haute cuisine or grey sludge, if there was lots of it t
