OH NO I accidentally answered a robocall which means I have to get a new phone and a new number and also move to a different country just to be sure — PolitiTweet.org

@reckless For that one year I didn't have a Camry I was totally convinced all my friends were driving without me and I didn't even know — PolitiTweet.org

David Pierce @pierce

@reckless Yeah I mean I've heard other cars might also be fast and good and maybe even have like cool spoilers and stuff but since I already know how to connect my phone to the Camry with Bluetooth switching's probably too hard anyway — PolitiTweet.org

David Pierce @pierce

@reckless I bought a Camry last year, should I get the new one? — PolitiTweet.org

@reckless Nope your new motto is "the dark mode, cash-money review for professionals" — PolitiTweet.org

I'm genuinely shocked at how good the iPhone 11 camera looks. I figured best-case scenario it'd be equal to the Pixel 3, but it actually seems to be... way better? https://t.co/SOr2sSx3K2 — PolitiTweet.org

@CaseyNewton Casey can we please really soon have a five-hour discussion about Notion and Coda because I have so many feelings about both and yet am so confused — PolitiTweet.org

David Pierce @pierce

@CaseyNewton This is so good! I feel like if anything, you can make an argument that there’s been TOO MUCH backlash with things like CA. Saying there isn’t one is wild — PolitiTweet.org

Theoretical phone calls: Amazing, yay human interaction Actual phone calls: sound quality sucks, everybody drops out constantly, voicemail is a pain, everybody assumes it's an emergency anytime you call We need more phone calls—and much better ones https://t.co/cdjzzp3ERi — PolitiTweet.org

@pedrohen It has an 11-inch screen and also it's a scooter — PolitiTweet.org

What if all the "Pixel 4" leaks were for a model Google never shipped and instead they just get up there and go "what's up everybody here's the PIXEL FIVE" — PolitiTweet.org

Never mind, according to Mail I have like 400,000 unread emails. Maybe this is the moment I just give up and never email again — PolitiTweet.org

@jmitch @newtonmailapp So I used to LOVE Newton but it hasn't been updated in forever and it doesn't really seem like anyone's paying attention to it? — PolitiTweet.org

@dcseifert YES but also I now have to use Office365, which, no thanks to you outlook dot com — PolitiTweet.org

I've tried every app in existence, I've used pinned tabs, I've done all the weird tricks and tips and extensions you can think of. And now, here I am, using the Mac's Mail app. I don't know why this feels like failure but here we are — PolitiTweet.org

I got a MoviePass card, it didn't work, I spent three months trying to get through to customer service and gave up. Basically I gave Moviepass a free $90. Shocking that with such an airtight business model it couldn't stay alive https://t.co/kC3WkpYFRP — PolitiTweet.org

This is a smart piece about a dumb strategy. It’d be more expensive for Apple to try to be Netflix rather than HBO, but it’s a LOT harder to be HBO — PolitiTweet.org

David Pierce @pierce

@jacknicas Yeah, and it’s particularly striking with Apple. Nobody loves Samsung the same way LOTS of people love Apple. It’s weird! And strange! But I think it’s maybe okay as long as you understand what it is? I will never stop thinking it’s weird to stan a trillion-dollar company, though — PolitiTweet.org

David Pierce @pierce

@jacknicas What I’ve been thinking about since yesterday is whether those people cheering are any different from, way, fans who blog about their favorite team. Some people definitely love tech like others love sports. Is that okay? Or are the stakes too high with Apple and others? — PolitiTweet.org
