The experiment shown is not entirely relevant to the phone in your pocket real world since your ass is going to impart a much more uniform pressure over a larger area than the test gig. Still, I guess it at least gives some comparative information, I just have no idea how useful it is.

They will not have devices with data plans for years. If I have my way.

I think the new pricing will allow both my wife and I to upgrade phones and pay less a month than we are currently. We will lose unlimited data but neither of us cracks a guig a month usually so it's not worth paying more for anymore.

I'm not seeing this plan anywhere on their website. Cheapest I can find is $90 a month for u/u/2gb. What am I missing?

At least there wasn't a stud there.

I'm hardly a rain god and (knock on wood) actually typically have pretty good luck with travel and weather. All indications are for a wet fall along the eastern seaboard so it's not all that shocking that things are unsettled here. When I left home yesterday it was gorgeous, 75 and sunny with a light breeze. Clearly the lesson is that I should have stayed home!

That and I have a fondness for lightning.

Visited scenic Norfolk, VA which provided both torrential downpours and minor coastal flooding. The perfect weather for a site visit if I do say so myself. I'm headed back north tomorrow morning only to have this storm follow me up the coast. Wuhoo!

That sucks, Zach. I hate wasting time on stuff that just doesn't matter that much in the end only to have found that the wasted time just lead to more wasted time.

I wonder how many HC'ers are on untappd?

Happy Birthday, Jim!

Oh boofuckinghoo, Jacob. I have no idea why your so damn combative in this thread, it does not reflect well either. I've had many phones, including an iphone and none of them ever bent despite being put through far worse than sitting on them. Is that luck? Perhaps. But is it really such a stretch to think that some manufacturer (and it doesn't matter who) pushed the envelope of thin/light too far? I'm not saying it has happened and I'll be surprised if it did, honestly, but the vehemence with which you respond to pretty light-hearted posts is fucked up. Crappy, your post was fine, fret not. Your cheerios lacked the requisite piss this morning, clearly. Al, isn't this just an opportunity for Sammy to sue Apple for infringement on their flexible phone concept? See the good in the bad, my lawyerly friend.

But you're smart enough to know not to sit on your phone. Still it'll be interesting to see if this is a pervasive issue or isolated.

Like!

Yay DIY!

Well done and keep it up!!

In for Wonder Woman!

Fingers and toes crossed, Ian.

The only advice I have to offer, having just done the same two weeks ago, is to hit the pickle juice early and often. Do your best top stay hydrated and go slow if you want to finish.

I wish the Elementum line wasn't so expensive.

The #'s are so low (production wise) that there is unlikely to be a relevant data set. They are both exceptional products worth a premium price, new or used. Use that as your guide and invest appropriately.

Noice! I've actually been wearing my Suuto Core (black) again the last few weeks and remembering why I bought it in the first place.

No hate. I just think it's funny that the guy doing the video was wowed by viewing a list of apps and having it tell him how much battery they were chewing. That's been around for ages on other platforms. And because it's fun to wind Jacob up. I'd have laid good $ that'd he'd be the first to reply and claim that apple did it better. Apple clearly innovates very well but it cheapens them in general when they claim innovation for stuff that is just old news. It's about damn time they figured out a predictive text bar, my goddamn flip phone had that.

I only watched through about the first five but it's hilarious how many of these have been on Android for years...

Andrew and I got home an hour before the girls so we banged out a batch of chocolate chip scones. Breakfast tomorrow will be much sweeter now.
