imma gonna interrupt gunchat to ask for a yospinion:

my iphone6 has failed. again. About a 9 months ago, I stopped getting carrier signal, they gave me a new phone right before my warranty was up. Today, I find out the same thing has happened. I'm not up for renewal for a few months, so I'm trying to figure out what way I wanna go.

is it: get the 6s and hope that they have engineered this thing right so the antenna doesn't stop working

get the steve extreme and the same.

I'm kind leaning towards the se cause i use my phone as mostly, you know, a phone.

the only diff between the 6s and the se afaik is the screen. the one on the 6s is bigger better quality and has 3d touch

mineral rights? get it?

nevermind yes get a grill get all the grills

my big house purchase was a nice Traeger smoker, not because I'm a huge BBQ nut, but because I wanted to have something nice that requires a home to have one and a Traeger fit the bill and people go apeshit over my smoked salsa. Where i just smoke the onions and jalapenos, and roast romas under a broiler, salt it up add cilantro, cuisinart it up. instant fav.

it's good poo poo.

grow your own food and become self sufficient. get solar panels. disconnect from the grid. build a high wall around your property. collect rainwater. turn your sewage into compost. declare independence. be a free man.

also to the other guy, buy the Steve Edition. if you don't care about screen size, it is the best phone.

Other than Xiaomi, the Woz has backed … *deep breath* … Bernie Sanders, Edward Snowden, Lego, Windows Phone, the San Jose Angels football team, Tesla, Segway, Kim DotCom, Android, Toyota Prius, SPG Keyless, Comic Con, Cadillac, Datsun (now Nissan), US Robotics, Mayday, Robot Guitar, Yotaphone, and Cathode Corner. There’s probably a lot more that I missed, not to mention the dozens of projects he’s backed on Kickstarter.

woz is exactly the type of nerd that doesn't understand why linux hasn't killed Microsoft on the desktop. I.e., completely detached from what normal humans want and, ironically, totally unqualified to comment on apple.

if you have a sufficiently new version of android that wasn't hosed up by sarnsung or w/e, it does exist. it's just very hidden (settings -> apps -> <app name> -> notifications) and is just a bad UI in general. i only know because of having the misfortune to write something that depends on Android notifications.

actually you just long press on the annoying notification and turn it off. wow hard

I did learn that in Japan you can buy a kit that lets you use your Nissan Leaf EV as an emergency home generator and it will power most homes for 48 hours

i wouldn't fault woz for endorsing products. who cares

i fault him for this

quote:

I try to educate Janet from my own learning but she doesn't remember subtle things that one never uses. So one time, to better educate Janet, I pushed the button by the driver's left knee (2009 or earlier models), which disable the keyless entry system, and the ability to start your Prius without putting the key into the ignition. As I drove toward home in my Prius my cellphone rang. It was Janet screaming that I was driving away with her key. I'd just driven her Prius to a parking spot by my own Prius. But now her Prius would not start. I calmly told her that I did not have her key. It took awhile to ask where she'd put her key and to calmly tell her to look there (her purse) and she found it. Then I told her calmly to put it in the ignition. When she got home I showed her the button. She will NEVER forget that lesson. I consider it an example of good teaching.
