THANK YOU.

(Obviously this doesn’t matter. Language evolves. And no one cared about this rule until the last 200 years or so. But my parents drilled this particular correction so firmly into my brain that it bothers me when others get it wrong. “Fewer in number, less in amount.” Similarly, “farther in distance, further in degree.” And you stand on a PODIUM, you speak from behind a LECTERN.)

(I might have some lexicographical trauma. 😅)

Or a PS5. The comparisons between PS5 and PS5 Pro are nearly impossible to notice.

We’ve been trying to make this work with e-bikes. We still HAVE two cars, but don’t really use one of them unless we have to.

Well, ignorant or misinformed. Idiot isn’t necessary.

More like a 14% chance, since the only states that matter are PA, WI, NV, MI, AZ, GA, and NC.

IT WAS RIGHT THERE ALL ALONG.

About 2.5 years ago I left behind Android and went to the Dark Side. Bought an iPhone. It was frustrating to use at first because changing OS is a pain in the ass, but I got used to it and actually really like it now.

But I still have two big complaints:

There ought to be some kind of icon in the toolbar to show me I have unread notifications. I miss this very much from Android, which would show icons for the apps that have notifications. The Apple Watch solves this by having a notification icon, but I shouldn’t need to buy a separate device for that functionality.

I cannot stand that I can only go back by swiping from the left side of the screen. On Android the swipe in gesture from either left or right side could be set up to be the “back” action. I understand why this is, Android developed with a dedicated back button and thus has an OS-level back command, whereas iOS is highly contextual and you flow through apps and menus differently than Android, and it has no dedicated universal “back,” so swiping in from the left is back and swiping in from the right is forward. It makes using a large screen one-handed unnecessarily difficult.

OnePlus used to have lockscreen gestures. I could turn on or off the flashlight by drawing a V on the screen while it was turned off. Don’t know if they still do this.

Between that and the godawful notification system, I feel like iPhone practically requires the Apple Watch.

I do really like how well the Apple Watch works with the iPhone, but I do kinda wish Apple would just steal notifications, date+time in the drop down, and back gestures from both sides of the screen from Android.

The one on my OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Edition was fantastic. I miss that phone.
