  By definition, yes.

  But let’s be honest, you know exactly what I meant.

  OP isn’t wrong, it’s the reason I came off social media years ago & I’ve been so happy since

  Browsing social media gave this false illusion that people were constantly out having the time of their lives, every single day.

  I just constantly felt like I had to try and do the same, that my life was boring and miserable. The reality is that I was doing and having more fun than most people based on conversation, social media was just painting a very false picture of people’s day to day lives.

  I have big hands and loved my Samsung Galaxy Flip 4 for this reason, plus it would fit comfortably in my pockets (especially when leaning/bending forwards)

  Notice the past tense? Despite taking very good care of it, the hinges didn’t last long. Rip

  Would it though?

  Firstly, the general population is stretched so financially thin that a 10 day strike is unaffordable for most

  Now, ten days to bring everything to a halt sounds great. But unless it’s coordinated in certain areas, then there’s just a freeze on everything. Remember the COVID pandemic? Even if only certain areas strike, the situation is so bad that alot of jobs would be covered.

  Secondly, do you honestly believe that the general population is selfless enough to not place any e-commerce, online services or any sort of digital product purchases within that 10 days? No.

  Lastly, what happens after those 10 days? The whip comes out, there’s catching up to do.

  This

  The corsairs of umbar flee the boats, the party & rangers take the ships. The whole point of the fleet was to cut off the Dol Amroth reinforcements, which can then join the battle

  At Pellenor, they just scare the enemy forces. Once they’ve fulfilled their oath, they are free.

  At no point did I say that “I added a centre speaker to my soundbar setup”

  I ditched my old setup for a new

  If you have a 5.1 system then I’d question the centre speaker or settings. A good centre speaker and you definitely won’t have this issue.

  Back when I had just a soundbar I was experiencing the same issue. I added a centre speaker to my now 3.1 setup & haven’t looked back since
