Note to those not liking this, there is an option in the preferences to revert to the old Vector skin. No idea how long this will be but setting that preference may give them feedback that some users prefer the old layout.

I'm the reverse of you in that I prefer content in the middle, as I sit in the middle of my screen and prefer to not have to be constantly looking to the left. I agree, personal choice would be nice.

I wonder though if there would have to be a balance, as you wouldn't want it to over-heat when charging during an Arizona summer.

We still host some dedicated servers at Rackspace and while the technical side has continued to be solid their phone support is awful now. I used to call in and have a specialist on the phone very quickly, now I get handed off to an obviou

Oddly enough I just bought a used Blackview BV9800 Pro phone today purely for the FLIR camera in it. At $140 CAD it was much much cheaper than any of the off the shelf new FLIR options.

Very nice! This brings back memories. In the 90's sometime I found a GIF of a huge maze and I wanted to find the solution. Young coder me decided to write a program in VB to find the solution. Just went and grabbed a screen shot of

I am one of those and every year I renew my Rebble subscription to keep my devices viable as long as possible. I currently have 4 of them, including 2 still "new in box". I still haven't found anything else that suits my use

I do love his videos though I find them a little rapid fire and after awhile I loose track of what is what. His testing methodlogy is pretty thorough and practical but wish he could change the presentation format a little. That said it

Or carry a dongle, or carry... that's the problem. So now your "we made it thinner" phone makes you carry and keep track of several more items to solve a problem that shouldn't exist. Instead of having to carry an entir

Give me a headphone jack, give me a "small phone" (6a is my absolute size limit... I carry a Pixel 5 now purposely because of its size... I'd gladly go smaller), give me raw Android, decent photo abilities, and an all day bat

I have found all forms of mechanical calculators fascinating for years and have a few of these collected back in the days when they were cheap to find. Now most of them run a couple grand. They are wonderful little devices to play with. Th

There is another thread on the iPhone SE where a lot of people are commenting on how they miss compact phones. I suspect that is why this was submitted / upvoted. I'm glad it was, didn't know this device existed.

I'm still sad about the Gen 2 Pebble Time not being released. It solved the (few!) issues I have with the V1 Time. And I use the word have - present tense - purposely because I still wear my Time daily and have 3 in reserve in case

From the man himself: There has been a huge debate about the real pronunciation of GIF over the years and many users have continued to offer their own arguments. But in 2013, Steve settled the debate once and for all during his accep
