@rcadden a Surface Pro 8 is that device, but will cost you more than $1k. — PolitiTweet.org

@rcadden i know you don't want to hear it, but i'll also point out that an iPad works very well with all of those microsoft apps you mentioned 😛 — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@rcadden can prolly get a prior gen Go with similar storage for a bit less than that $700 price, but def not $200. — PolitiTweet.org

if google or gmail went down like this, i'd be pretty frozen, but with FB down, i can just go about my day and make jokes about it on twitter — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

i know this isn't the case for everyone and a lot of people/businesses rely on facebook, but facebook/insta/whatsapp being down is way less disruptive to my day than slack, twitter, or even spotify being down — PolitiTweet.org

the final-final-actually-final-for-real-this-time-we-mean-it version of Android 12 is apparently still a few weeks out, but until then, enjoy @camfaulkner's very good review of what's new TL;DR: don't stress about the delay — PolitiTweet.org

well it's a good thing twitter is still up otherwise we might have to actually do some work today — PolitiTweet.org

@mrredbeardOO7 @WrlsFanatic i know it was called "Many Saints" because it's supposed to be centered around Dickie, but i'd rather have seen more of Tony during his formative years and how Dickie / his mother / his father influenced them. there was so little of that. — PolitiTweet.org

@Karam9M neither, the 6L is too small and i hate the everyday backpack — PolitiTweet.org

@DanaWollman every actor was basically playing a charicature of the characters we know, aside from perhaps Vera Farmiga's Livia — PolitiTweet.org

(the sopranos show remains one of the best if not the best TV shows ever made. the movie prequel produced 15 years after the show ended didn't stand a chance.) — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

watched the sopranos movie last night. it was, unsurprisingly, quite bad. thank you for reading my review. — PolitiTweet.org

this is compounded by Apple music burying the like button, which should be a single tap action, under a sub menu — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

seems silly to me that I can't like or thumbs up a track from the control center media player, instead I have to switch over to the Music app to do it https://t.co/nIEHGMJUST — PolitiTweet.org

@krubenok (performance in my mind is also more than just a faster chip -- it's impacted by software features / capabilities too. and also more RAM. always more RAM.) — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@krubenok this where i say last year's camera was plenty good! :P my general point was I'd rather pay for improvements in the areas i listed before i'll pay for better camera features. typically a better camera comes along for the ride anyways. it's just not the reason i bought the phone — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@annamaria1word @steve_haney @palmsolo my spouse does, she doesn't have a personal laptop or tablet. her phone is entertainment, communication, chores (food orders, bill payments, etc) it's also her primary camera. but getting her to care about an upgrade is challenging -- everything about it is more than good enough — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@nedwards @palmsolo this is true, when light levels dip, the iPhone switches to the main camera and crops/upscales the image because the tele cams are still kinda craptastic. only way you can tell is by blocking the camera with your finger when taking the shot to see which it's using — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@Supermarrio83 it does! so do a lot of other phones. my point is i'd rather pay for improvements in these areas before i pay for improvements in the camera. — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@nedwards @palmsolo and yet, the phone won't even use the tele lens half the time, instead just cropping on the main sensor 🙃 — PolitiTweet.org

@JGfromOC @nedwards @palmsolo true story, i've never felt less productive than when using a blackberry. never understood the appeal. — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@nedwards @palmsolo i'd argue most people won't tell the difference between an iPhone 11 pics and an iPhone 13 pics. nor will they be able to distinguish from something that's half the price, like a Pixel 5A. — PolitiTweet.org

@nedwards @palmsolo nathan that phone is a decade old — PolitiTweet.org

@nedwards @palmsolo depending on how old your phone is, phones have been able to get sharp pics for years (and they still produce a ton of blurry pics of kids, believe me) — PolitiTweet.org
