But software has basically no overhead to produce, improve, fix or deploy.

Except the network admin that makes the hush-hush employee website usage reports for the boss.

That might do what i want if it can be made to not sort. I hate things moving around on me. Ill give it another look, the battery thing has been bothering me lately.

You can make a conditional break point, put in arbitray js statements, such as console.log, and return false if you dont want to pause there. Best of both worlds and you dont have to clean up the code after.

I've played with that. I like the smallness but it actually adds either extra steps or cognitive overhead for me. It doesn't get simpler than turning on the screen (I don't have a lock screen) and tapping the icon I need. Eve

I don't think they need to be mutually exclusive. I use both daily. I don't use vim emulation in anything else and the context switching hasn't tripped me up in a long time, it was a bit of a problem at some point though.

Depends on your definition of malware and spywayre. My definition is nothing like Google's.

OpenLauncher is a nice home screen replacement. I would be fine with the standard one if Google would just let us hide the damn search bar. I use Simple Contacts so I can keep my contacts out of the cloud and away from other apps. Good &#x2

Any DRM free, EULA free source. Probably won't get that from the publishers and its probably illegal in most cases. If you have a problem with that, obviously don't use it, but there are limited legitimate offerings from publisher

Average users don't even care about features, they use the browser they're given or the last one they were tricked into installing. None of the things in that list would need to be a concern of the average user if the right thing

Don't debit cards give much of the same benefits for both parties as CCs, and aren't they much cheaper to process? I know sometimes their can be a buyer fee associated with a debit card but I've never had one that did. My ban

Maybe that would lead to all adults cleaning up their own shit so that "toilet cleaner" wouldn't have to be someones job title. I think that might be the least likely of all the hypothetical outcomes though :/

I've never found that confusing. Tapping the address bar opens a whole new navigate/search view. X closes that view. The most common use case is entering a new search or url, just start typing, the existing text is already selecte

You're comment made me look into it. So it's still open source, just not GPL? Looks like I simply fell for a sales tactic targeting compulsion and naivety. They got my money, good for them. Anything associated with their name is a
