    The second is direct filesystem access. If I download a file - say, a PDF - I know exactly where that file is on my device and I can easily attach it to an email or open it up in the app of my choice.

    This is a big reason I don't use Apple products anymore. Dealing with their weird OS philosophy irritates me.

    iOS diehards will say "Most users don't need that"

    but like I said

    "I downloaded a file. Where is it?" is easily the #2 most common support question I get from iPhone users (right after 'how do I add my work email?')

    Simple workflows like:
    - Download .DOCX from corporate intranet
    - Make change to .DOCX in Pages
    - Upload .DOCX back to corporate intranet

    Still though, the fact that at this point the best way to get a physical keyboard is to buy an accessory

    and iPhone has a far more extensive accessory market

    means that iPhone is probably going to suit my needs better for the next few years

    she said she would not play fair and that every time we went out she would make a big show of asking me whether i'd rather be back at home playing internet d&d.

    she told me that she has been biding her time for an opportunity like this for years, what with all the shit i give her for her terrible entertainment choices.

    oh my god, this company wants to schedule a third interview this time with their president. i was hoping they had forgotten about me. i think maybe going there might be a terrible move but if they made a really good offer then I would have to give it serious consideration. This isn't a humblebrag by the way!

    I am raging at my stupid Motorola razr all the time now and the more it doesn't work, the more my iPhone 4S work work just continues to do all the standard shit I need.

    It is pissing me off because I like android OS more but fuck's sake, when your options are "fumble around for the fucking PowerPoint for a while" and "phone literally will not come out of sleep for 60 seconds, every key press takes 20s, browser crashes inexplicably all the time"

    I am unhappy with my current leanings.

    Depends on what you use it for, probably. iPhones don't have NFC, so the utility would seem to be limited...

    Will if you really liked the non superhero parts of Hawkeye you should try the stuff Ed Brubaker has been doing with Sean Phillips. Criminal, a straight crime book, and Fatale, Cthulhu noir. Also, like Dyna says, Saga.

    Also his new spy book, Velvet.

    I feel TD is getting hyperbolized at the moment due to its freshness

    It's great but I'm not so quick to throw it in the hall of fame, I felt it stalled out a liiiittle bit down the stretch

    Yeah, I enjoyed the finale and thought it was a relatively satisfying 8 hours of TV, but I'm steering clear of the actual thread because I had mixed feelings about the series on the whole and anything other than wholehearted praise doesn't seem particularly welcome in there.

    Happens in most tv threads I feel like

    For me, misspelling Shamalamadingdong's name is intentional.

    He made the Movie That Shall Not Be Named and ruined all chances of getting a good live action Avatar movie.

    mostly by removing carrier-installed crap!
