I wanted to love the concept from the very beginning, and I truly tried, but I could never get past how unwieldy they were. If you’ll remember, early foldables were comically thick, essentially feeling like two regular phones stacked on top of each other.

Expert Says Collapse of Human Civilization Looks Like the Most Likely Scenario

New research is warning that the most likely outcome is that human civilization is poised for collapse. As The Guardian reports, a sweeping new historical survey that analyzes 5,000 years and the collapse of more than 400 societies makes the case that we're in for a rude awakening.
