I agree with your point about OS X style menus, they’ve been steadily going downhill since “macOS” though. Granted, they’re still uphill of whatever the fuck Microsoft seems to think of.

I imagine they’re really itching to torpedo it somehow. Surprisingly long time for them not to do so.

Thanks, worked for me

Good supplemental reading here to iFixIt’s recent announcement pertaining to their relationship with Samsung moving forward.

Like kudzu

I’m very much a tech person and can confirm for me personally: T9-Word in combination with physical keys was a much faster, one-handed, and even eyes-off experience. Even when I upgraded to a phone with a slide out full physical keyboard (Samsung Intensity), T9 was still faster. For any word that had repeated keys back-to-back, my hand knew to press the right arrow which would move the cursor to the next position.

I’m purely talking about typing while not looking at the screen (for instance in a pocket like OP mentioned). Not sure why you brought screen resolution into it or media players. I’m not a vintage tech apologist–I’m typing this on an S22 with SwiftKey and it’s fine minus a few mistakes. But there was no way I could do this blindfolded. I’d have exited the app and be typing something regrettable into Slack by now.

For some reason I thought it was mainly to protect Taylor Swift, with teen girls being the afterthought.

I’ve had a lot of trouble searching for a concrete answer to this, but does anyone know what percentage of commercial jets in the US are made by Boeing? I know it’s a duopoly between them and Airbus, but to what extent is Boeing’s domination?

I hope Germany wakes up

Pretty wild that we happen to live in a perfect little time period for capitalizing on dead plants and animals which have turned into energy sources over millenia. It’s also pretty wild how we’ve made a lot of things out of these dead plants and animals when it will be a bit of a wait until we get more of these dead plants and animals again.

We’re just like ants finding a sugar cube. But with more at stake in some ways.
