A little disappointed with last nights. Not that it wasn't good, just after all the hype and hiatus I wish that there would have been a little more meat to it. The episode was basically a setup for the future.

I feel the same. Along with the fact that Rick is starting to get on my nerves. Please not a season of hallucinations.

Dont know why theres so much hate, clearly everyone is expecting the latest episode to always out-do the previous, it cant all just be headshots and guts.

I, for one, enjoyed the episode thoroughly :)

You are right. I enjoyed it, but for such a long wait it was a bit of a let down. The fight between brothers went fizzle, and then Darryl takes off with his idiot brother, that one was hard to take. And the most worrisome part for me, the hallucinations. I'd rather see Rick dead that having a mental breakdown over his wife who had his best friend's baby, in the middle of a Zombie Apocalypse. Just sayin'. I am happy to see Glenn still upset and ready to kill over how Maggie was treated.

Yeah completely agree with that MorganX! But keep in mind it has 'been just under a week' since Lori died, obviously he's still dealing with that, plus the added stress of keeping everyone safe, im sure it will fizzle out, the once strong Rick will start looking weak and it will kill the character, nobody wants to see that.. Hopefully there'll be a few suprises in the coming episodes, cant wait!! :D :D

Actually the hallucinations are somewhat faithful to the comic (somewhat being the key word here). So if the comic is any indication, good news for everyone that hates them, they should not last all that long.

What I did not like about that scene was, did the people in the room with him clearly not see he was looking up and talking to someone that was not there? They just all assumed he was addressing the new group of people. Just seemed a little off to me.

I would like to see Glenn take out the Governor, with Maggie watchin'!!! :D

Can't argue with that. Though he was barely talking to her when she died. He had good reason, but if you're put off enough to ignore her while she's living, hallucinating after she's gone seems, extremely weak. I mean Carl had to kill his mom and he's holding up ... But if Larry is correct, the irritatingly weak Rick should not drag on for the rest of the season.

I want this whole thing with Rick to end already and the group to retaliate big time against the Governor. Best part of the episode is 2 walkers on Rick and he's in trouble and then you see an arrow go through one's head and the camera pans to Darryl. I shouted "yes!!!!!"

I have no idea why people hate the Rick halucination stuff. #1) I like that they are staying somewhat close to the comics, and #2) I personally think this is the type of stuff that would happen to people who are going through this. I love how realistic this seems, and to me, that's entertaining.

I think it would happen if they're on drugs or dehydrated or haven't eaten in a long time. Otherwise, it would happen maybe the week of the death, once. Probably dreams. Carl had to kill his mom and kept it together.

I suppose they're just following the comic, normally this type of storyline means the writers have run out of ideas and the show is about to be cancelled :) But they did recover from it well. Doesn't appear there will be much more of that.

Well, they are probably dehydrated and I can't imagine the food is plentiful... And the passage of time from when Lori died til now isn't much more than a week, even if that.

And not every person has the same mental capacity to handle things. Rick is clearly a bit on the weaker side handling emotions, while Carl is actually growing up in this world where there isn't much time for emotion.

Let's be honest. Rick does need a rest after all that pressure he's gone through in the past 3 seasons. It's like he's trying too hard to gain dominance over the whole group in order to sustain.

      Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know The ONLY thing I need to know is the price, which I know will be way higher than I (and most people) are willing to pay for a phone... so basically nothing here I need to know. PS: Nice job getting that Apple reference to a non-existent and unrevealed product as "competition" in there. Cheque is in the mail.

      Well I really think the repasting helped if your higher clocks have returned, maybe the next thing to look at is if there is a problem with your case airflow? I guess this because your 3080 has returned to optimal state, but is still staying too warm, which might suggest it was thermal throttling before you repasted, of which the only logical conclusion could be outside factors.

    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know

      Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know by Hamid Ganji Galaxy Z Fold 7 - Image via Samsung The next generation of Samsung foldables is set to be unveiled next month at the second Unpacked event of the year. Samsung’s 2026 foldables are not expected to offer significant upgrades over their predecessors, with the Korean firm instead focusing on design refinements and conventional upgrades such as faster processors and better cameras. However, Samsung is reportedly planning to unveil an all-new passport-style foldable this year to rival Apple’s first foldable iPhone, which is expected to debut this September. Here’s a roundup of everything we know about Samsung’s upcoming foldable devices ahead of their official debut. When can we expect Samsung’s new foldables? The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 series were unveiled in July, and Samsung is expected to maintain this timeframe in 2026. Based on previous reports from Korean sources, Samsung will hold its Unpacked event on July 22 in London, UK, to pull back the curtain on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 series. The devices are also expected to hit the shelves a few weeks after launch. However, Samsung has yet to announce an official date. A new naming scheme? One of the most interesting changes we might see this year is a new naming scheme for Samsung’s latest foldables. SamMobile reported that since Samsung is expected to unveil three foldables this year, it has adopted a new naming strategy to simplify product identification for customers. Accordingly, the standard Galaxy Z Fold 8 will reportedly be called the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and will serve as the direct successor to last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 7. The “Ultra” suffix suggests the phone could feature higher-end specifications, such as additional rear camera modules. Samsung’s new passport-style foldable is expected to carry the Galaxy Z Fold 8 name without any suffix. This model is reportedly equipped with two rear cameras. No major changes are expected for the Flip model. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 anticipated specs Rumors over the past few months suggest Samsung is preparing several upgrades for its upcoming foldables, although the devices may continue to rely on larger batteries and faster charging speeds rather than dramatic design changes. The primary focus this year is expected to be the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and its wide-screen design. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here are the anticipated specifications for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra based on previous leaks: 6.5-inch outer display and 8-inch inner display, 120Hz refresh rate, and 2,600 nits peak brightness Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, paired with 12GB or 16GB of RAM and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB of storage 4.1mm thickness when unfolded and a weight of 210g 200MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, 10MP or 12MP telephoto camera, 10MP cover camera, and 10MP selfie camera 5,000mAh battery with 45W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 As for the Galaxy Z Flip 8, the device is not expected to be a major departure from its predecessor, although it could become slightly slimmer. Expected specifications include: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 or Exynos 2600 processor 12GB of RAM with 256GB and 512GB storage options 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X inner dispaly and 4.1-inch Super AMOLED outer dispaly 50MP main camera, 12MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera 4,300mAh battery with 25W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 Samsung’s foldables are also expected to launch with Gemini Intelligence, Google’s AI suite for automating tasks in Android ecosystem. Moreover, given current memory and component costs, some Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 variants could see a price hike. Galaxy Z Fold 8 adopts a wide-screen design The centerpiece of the upcoming Unpacked event could be the Galaxy Z Fold 8, previously rumored as the Galaxy Z Fold Wide. This model adopts a passport-style form factor and is expected to compete directly with Apple’s iPhone Fold. Galaxy Z Fold 8 official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here’s what to expect: 7.6-inch primary OLED display and 5.4-inch cover display, 120Hz refresh rate, 2,600 nits peak brightness, and 4:3 aspect ratio Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, 12GB or 16GB of RAM, and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB storage options 4,800mAh battery with 45W wired charging 50MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera Android 17 and One UI 9 The three new foldable phones are unlikely to be the only devices unveiled at Samsung’s Unpacked event. The company is also expected to introduce the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 and the Galaxy Watch 9 series.
