Raskin had one problem: Jobs regarded him as an insufferable theorist or, to use Jobs's own more precise terminology, "a shithead who sucks".

"The 5.1-inch screen is too big to operate with the hand that’s holding it, unless your thumb can stretch like Mrs. Incredible’s. But Samsung has a clever, if weird, fix for this: Among the Galaxy’s 732,852 features is one called “One-Handed Operation,” whose function is to shrink the screen so that you can reach all of it with your thumb. It leaves empty black areas around the shrunken image."

well one nice thing about android being for spergs is that there are a nice number of apps for detailed tracking of random phone functions.



the downside is I had to download and use that because the drat phone kept overheating when i used it for nav on my car dash and i needed soemthing with a programmable temperature alarm function.

i have a friend who does that with their 5s where its ON the dash and it throttles like crazy unless they're careful to keep it in the path of an ac vent or something idk

so maybe stop leaving it in the sun while its hammering gps gawd

He's for real. He thinks that if he stops at $19,995, PayPal won't make him fill out a 1099-K and the IRS won't make him pay taxes on his online sales. He's been posting about tax avoidance tactics on publicly-viewable forums for a while now too.

i like moto x

it hangs out in a holder thing right above a controllable vent. but it can be 70 in the car, at night, and if i don't have that vent on with some airflow just GPS+display+bluetooth+battery charging is enough to push the temperature up to levels I'm not happy about.

it wouldn't be a big deal if the steering wheel controls in my car would properly pass A2DP RCP track skip controls but android is a loving polished piece of art compared to in-car audio systems.

edit: and i don't spend enough time in my car to justify upgrading the head unit.
