Why?

Sorry, I’ll get off your lawn.

It already has. Banks are starting to use it now, and even consumers are buying things with it. It’s definitely growing (albeit slowly).

It’s easy to mock, but look at all the naysayers who predicted Bitcoin would tank within a year. This is a real thing, and it isn’t going away.

Sony has already announced a couple sets of noise-cancelling buds. They may even be out already!

I wish people would stop using the word “creepy” for this sort of thing.

Yeah, it’s a bummer that iOS still doesn’t handle this very well. It’s another reason I prefer Android, too.

Sounds pretty reasonable. I love that iPhones get updates for longer, have nicer apps (generally), and have better hardware-software integration, but I just prefer the way Android works so much more that I can deal with the the negatives. Both OS’s have pros and cons, and it’s up to you to choose which works best…

/s I hope.

I’m not going to say that having no external storage is a good thing, but it’s pretty trivial to at least save music for offline playback. So that’s one problem solved.

Yes, exactly.

That’s my point. Things are being taken much less seriously now than in previous generations.

It’s one of the sure proofs that society has gotten worse, when everything is being taken too seriously.

Kids have always been doing dumb things, and adults have always been saying things like, “Society is crumbling.” This is not new.

Giraffe.

No, this is different. Instead of depending on the carrier to register your phone, you’ll be able to swap the SIM in software.

You can do it in the OS.

I don’t know for sure, but it sounds like you’ll be able to swap SIMs yourself in the OS.

GPS does not drain that much battery unless you have apps using it constantly in the background.

Loving my neckband Sennheiser buds that I just got. The sound is great!
