Hell, a Chinese company even bought Segway earlier this year.

I’m not sure why this article would make you change your mind about Sony phones. It’s not like the waterproofing rating on their devices has changed.

I love rhythm games, but I just can’t get on board with Hatsune Miku.

Wishing they were/pretending the are English is something that just plagues American soccer writers. I hope to never see another American writer say [Team A] secures a famous win over [Team B] again. You never see that phrasing used with any other sport in the US, and it just looks a little pathetic.

I don’t aim my camera at my dick while watching porn, but maybe that’s just me.

I have enough money for a tablet but still wouldn’t spend my hard earned money on one. I feel like a computer and a smartphone are pretty necessary for most people, but tablets are just luxuries. Ones that I struggle to find a use for at that.

The Dell Venue 8 at $350 seems like a solid piece of kit. Samsung and Sony also make nice ones, but you’re going to have to throw down some real cash.

Get a Sony Xperia Z5 Compact, then. I have a Z3 Compact, and I love it. The software is very close to stock as of the 5.0 update. (It was legit terrible before that.) Battery lasts forever, and it’s a great looking and performing phone.

Exactly. I have the Z3 Compact, and I’ve never wished for more pixels. This article is also wrong about Sony’s skin. With 5.0 and 5.1, Sony removed pretty much all of their software ugliness from it. There are still some apps that you’ll probably want to delete/disable, but it’s now so close to stock that you won’t

I’m not sure that wording worked out the way you wanted it to.

I’ve found that just drinking constantly makes hangovers pretty rare, and throwing up from alcohol consumption just doesn’t happen.

This game clearly does nothing remotely innovative or interesting on the gameplay front. I suppose they could have done some interesting server side stuff. (It is an explicably popular game, so they’re undoubtedly getting tons of server traffic. They probably have some pretty decent database and load balancing custom

The second and third national flags are some of the worst design work I’ve ever seen.

Don’t even get me started on how much Australians pay for alcohol and cigarettes, the very cornerstones of my existence.

Samsung seems like the only one with the market share necessary to do that, and they include so much of their own cruft that it would just seem hypocritical.

Yeah, that made me a little envious.

Sure, but that requires users to be proactive, which is just not realistic. Any method for protecting user privacy has to be simple and highly visible to all users, and that means baked into the OS.

Yup, in Android M, you can finally granularly grant permissions. When an app first needs a certain permission a pop up will ask if you want to grant it or not. Unfortunately it won’t help the people stuck on old versions.

This was a very interesting and entertaining video. However, I’d still rather watch pretty much any other fighting game.

And if you wait a few months, you can get a fairly premium phone that doesn’t sell well for a huge discount, which is how I got my Sony Z3 Compact, which I adore.
