iOS already has a low-power mode. do your cpu throttling shenanigans then.

the 70s were fuckin wild man

like lisp is basically as completely illegible as brainfuck but it’s a legitimate language simply because it was invented in a time where computer people were like “yeah gently caress it why not”

people complaining about lisp syntax being illegible is the surest sign that you can ignore their opinions on these things. often they imagine unindented one-liner lisp, which makes any language hard to read (but lisp, granted, extra so without editor support, since the bracketing is so uniform)

plenty of other things sort of wrong with lisp, but there really is no problem reading it with like 15 minutes practice

I bought both and can confirm the 8 is just nicer to use, and the X is a bit more annoying to use, big screen is cool and all but I've entered my password more times with Face ID than I did in the past 5 years I had Touch ID

still, I can't believe loving Samsung phones were literally exploding, banned in flights (specifically, by name) and people are buying them again

if ONLY that it makes them focus harder on whats worthwhile instead of pie in the sky poo poo


like on the other hand someone was complaining that new iphones are just more of the same, but thats ok??? just make it less likely to smash the glass

Every time I’ve seen someone use Face ID it takes a few tries. Touch ID works great though.
