For a while I had one of those jack inserts that was a micro-usb that had a mag-safe type of charging cable that went with it. It was cool but I always had to keep my own cable with me or id have to remove the little dongle thing and it would get lost.

Something kind of like this.

Telephoto seems like something Google could do to really set the next Pixel Xa series apart from the competition. If they care to that is.

From what I remember, the M9 had some issues with processor overheating and didn't live up to the M8 legacy. Id love to see a tablet with a proper kickstand come back around. I got a first generation Microsoft Surface when I went to college and the kickstand on it just wasn't good. Plus the battery life was awful. I ended up selling it and just buying a regular laptop. That Yoga sounds like what I wished the Surface would have been.

I know it's not the same thing but the new flip phones from Motorola and Samsung have 4-ish inch screens on the front. You can run all your apps on the front screen too.

I also have had trouble during upgrades in the past.

I'll have to disagree about the purple and orange theme though. I'm personally a big fan.

Solok woke up the day he went to DS9 and chose all the violence that logic would allow.

Analogue is doing the lord's work. Software is easy to copy infinite times but hardware isn't prevalent or going to last forever.

I hope someday things like this will end up at a more commodity price

All I see around is old Cisco enterprise stuff and 1000 would be a low price for that. Not to mention the potential for quite loud fan noise.

Unifi has one with 10 gig uplinks for the same price as used Cisco stuff and it has poe also. Still 1600 bucks though.

I switched to Delta Icons, also open source also on F-Droid. They aren't as minimalist but they're neat and flat and pastel.

Funny you mentioned articons. I have actually had a lot fewer stability problems when I switched away from articons.

Dope Wars Classic. The best modern recreation of the TI Calculator/Palm Pilot game Drugwar.

Still awesome to play to this day.

Kiss is exactly what I want in a launcher. I use it but it seems to crash a lot and/or fail to run the search properly or render my icons.

Have you noticed that at all? It's happened across 2 phones for me but I may be unlucky or doing something wrong.
