you ask me: "what's the time?"
I smirk and reach into my pocket, pulling out a palm prē like a fancy pocket watch. I slide it open in one fluid motion and announce: "I have no fucking idea this thing's clock doesn't sync anymore"

flip/slider phones you can open and close with one hand

boost if you agree

ah heck, I found a working OpenStreetMap app but I don't think GPS works anymore, does it

that's smart and also I didn't notice it until thinking about "hey what happens if I open this the way that feels best, touching the middle of the screen"

oooh, the Palm Pre rejects all touch while it's being opened/closed

me: fuck I should really get some sleep

Charging the Palm Pre on the Touchstone is a trip because it

  • only works with some USB power adapters,
  • gets pretty warm and I don't really trust the battery,
  • keeps the screen on at all times (to display a clock) with no way to turn it off/down,
  • is kinda finicky with whether it even wants to charge, half the time it just doesn't detect the Touchstone at all

sometimes I switch to mobile Wikipedia because it's a lot nicer and easier to read

in that regard, please pay attention to how you typeset your text online, i.e. don't make it spread all the way across the page, that's not fun to read in a 1080p fullscreen browser window

between using an eReader more often and basically relying on reader mode to read any articles online I'm very much appreciating being able to control font, font size, spacing and all the other stuff

everyone look at my new computer she's beautiful and i love her
