Your Smartphone is too thin. Here’s why.

Smartphones in 2019 and beyond need to be THICKER -And it's not just about battery life - Let me explain. More smartphone news: https://www.youtube.com/watc...

Strangely, the user interface of some early 2000s Japanese DVD recorders has a smaller border radius on the DVD-VR editor than the CD-ROM/CD-R/CD-RW file browser, even though the rest of the user interface is very similar.

Another bad trend is laptops shifting from full-sized SD card slots to MicroSD, despite no lack of room. Full-sized SD cards are more ergonomic due to their larger size, have a write protection (read-only) switch, and have a longer life span due to their larger memory cells.

Smartphone bezels never bothered me. Limiting performance and charging speed to extend the non-replaceable battery lifespan did.

"You don't have a 4K screen" is, for obvious reasons, the dumbest argument against recording in 4K (2160p). Saving disk space and battery charge are genuine reasons, but not having a 4K monitor/television isn't.

Whenever I read or hear "slim design", "streamlined", or similar in a smartphone advertisement or product description, my inner alarms go off. It just screams "planned obsolescence" and "sacrificed utility value" at me.

OK, by all means, remove the "bloat", but don't deny the option of having the "bloat" to power users who do not see it as such but as useful.

Features YouTube potenitally removes in future: - “Search inside channel”: Low usage due to main search feature. Removed. - Video categories. “Who uses them anyway?” - Video tags. Existing tags will be deleted. - Like/dislike counts. As if Hyun Yeul Lee worked for YouTube,

Looks like YouTube has at some point removed the age restriction on Kony 2012 that was instated in late 2020. Today is the tenth anniversary of the movie.

I consider smart home an extension and not a replacement to the "manual" home, since the former allows falling back in case of technical failure, whereas the latter does not. It is like progressive enhancement in web design. "Smart home" is an enhancement, not a replacement.

Tweet took a long time to be sent. Perhaps many people tweeted at once?

So far, Microsoft appears to have made surprisingly little adverse change to GitHub. One deterioration is that some menus use subsequent AJAX-based loading ("include-fragment") rather than HTML inclusion, but it looks like there are no major feature removals like on YouTube.

I believe that the adage "the Internet never forgets" is untrue. It forgets all the time. Good web videos get memory-holed because, for example, uploader decides that they are "past them" or similar ambiguous emotional nonsense. Also, much of Yahoo Answers could not be rescued.

Since Twitter was acting up earlier, I'm gonna be cheeky & post this again: Progressive Enhancement: Still Not Dead. thatemil.com/blog/2013/07/0

Progressive enhancement is still important

I have always preferred progressive enhancement web design since years before knowing that term. • sighjavascript.tumblr.com • jakearchibald.com/2013/progressi .

"All unlisted videos will be [made] private." This prediction from me in 2018 about YouTube turned out to be correct within a time range: All unlisted videos dated before 2017 were switched to private in July 2021. YouTube's explanation, as often, sounds implausible.

Hello,

@JasonRussell

. I suggest you release a “KONY 2022” follow-up film on 2022-03-05, on the ten-year anniversary of KONY 2012, which is nine months and few days away. It's difficult to grasp that #KONY2012 was aired nearly a decade ago, yet has such amazing production quality.

Thanks to Apple you can't replace the battery on your smart phone. Thanks to Apple you also can't replace the battery on your laptop. Thanks to Apple you can't plug a headphone on your phone. Thanks to Apple laptops don't come with the most basic ports. Yes, I am blaming them
