Anecdotal evidence isn't proof. I have two friends with the One and neither of them make it through the day unless the phone is idling for most of it. It might work in your usage case, but it's definitely inadequate for mine. I'm trying out the X now and with moderate use I just went 20 hours with 38% left, without…

I'm with you. I'm not at all opposed to people driving where it's necessary... luckily I live in a warm climate, and my commute is only a couple of miles each way (although it was once longer). I just feel bad for those who wouldn't think twice about getting in the car when it's completely unneeded. Cheers!

Bike.

It's just too bad Amazon doesn't sell the cards for Moto Maker (unless I'm missing that option)... $100 off is really nice, but Moto Maker!

Sadly, the Moto X (and this unique contribution to Jelly Bean) is hardly a reference device. Active Notifications— while totally rad— are unlikely to be folded into AOSP just because they require some specialised hardware.

I'll probably order one upon initial availability— just as I have with previous Nexus models— but if the battery is as projected I can't imagine keeping it. Luckily I've held off so far on the X (I'd prefer the wood model) and so I'll be set if the N5 disappoints. Just return it, eat the restocking fee, and go X.

Can't get excited about this. 2300mAh for a 1080p screen? No thanks. Looks like my N4 just might be followed up by the X. Love the Nexus line... but the battery life needs to improve.

Disagree. There are legitimate reasons to encourage someone toward other securities— for instance, the comparative simplicity of no-load ETFs and the like— but "it's too difficult" is laughable. There is this thing called The Internet that provides you all the information the professionals have access to, and there is…

Atacama is a bit of an exception. It is incredibly remote, undisturbed by light pollution, and by far the driest place on Earth. Short of launching a whole array of radio telescopes in formation into orbit— at an incomprehensible cost, to be sure— Atacama is pretty perfect.

Kyle, I can appreciate what you're saying, although I don't think it leads necessarily to the iPhone. I use Android in the same manner, and it led me (years ago, now) to go Nexus or nothing. When you can trust your device to do things consistently and don't need to worry about ill-implemented features and overlays…

The camera on the Z10 IS, if not bad, at very best middling. And you're right about optical zoom, except that the 1020 has lossless zoom because of the oversampling. So there is that.

Me too! I was at the HTX show. What about you?

I disagree. It all sounds similar, because his process is pretty well-defined. But the songs are all pretty distinct. Take this song on offer here, and compare it to Bloom. That's not really very hard to discern at all.

Agree. I uploaded my library to Play (or at least the stuff that Play didn't already have on tap) and subscribed to All Access when it was locked in at $7.99/month. The mobile interface is pretty great— it's like a tutorial in Android App Design Guidelines— and the desktop interface suits me fine. No complaints here.

If you accept the web as a platform— and I presume you do, seeing as it's the same way Microsoft is doing it— then Play All Access has been doing exactly this for a while now. The web player— while less streamlined than the app— is perfectly functional even on mobile devices. And uploads? Yup. Got those.

Who would you like to see replace him? My heart is with the prodigal son Allard returning to save Microsoft from themselves... but I'm sure the actual successor will be as exciting as boiled lettuce.

No offense, man, but if your suggestion is if you want awesome games for the Kinect make them yourself then you're kind of nuts. It's not unreasonable for people to worry that developers won't make games for a console's peripheral if that peripheral is an optional accessory— but it is unreasonable to tell those same…

That's all well and good, except for wait, that doesn't make any sense. The line between "what it does" and "what you want it to do" seems to exist somewhere in your imagination. All of the features of the Xbox One are singular, and Microsoft has chosen to make many of them require a paid subscription to LIVE— and…

You're suggesting that it's unlawful for manufacturers to create requirements for services and applications they've provided? That is, frankly, almost an impossibly idiotic notion. Microsoft isn't artificially limiting the functionality of anything— the system that they've designed requires a subscription to LIVE to…

It is hard for me to say for certain if your statement is the dumbest thing I've ever heard— I have read a large number of things, and cannot remember them all clearly— but out of all the things I can recall, yours is definitely the dumbest.
