@anshelsag @intel @nvidia My other comment is that 99% of PC cases are drastically too large for what we need them to fit. I'm an unreconstructed Shuttle SFF fan, and I'd own a Corsair One if I was buying a new PC today. — PolitiTweet.org

@anshelsag @intel @nvidia A PSU might be helpful. — PolitiTweet.org

While I'm on the subject of malfunctioning Android apps, Twitter randomly stopped surfacing notifications a couple of weeks ago. Though that can be counted as a random upgrade. — PolitiTweet.org

Tragically, a @WithingsEN Android app update has screwed up syncing with its step-tracking watches. Which are still beautiful, but now that they've deprived me of 8,000 steps due to failed syncs, no longer reliable. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm not usually an icon pack fan, but this Linebit Light action is pretty nice. https://t.co/xm0dBKmBWK https://t.co/2UvKs9egxK — PolitiTweet.org

I just watched a YouTuber with 622k subs peel a ripe avocado with a 12-inch knife and his fingers, and I was almost going to forgive his ignorance, but then he used a fork to scoop out the avocado, and I unsubscribed in disgust. — PolitiTweet.org

The Black Panther soundtrack by @ludwiggoransson deserves all the awards it's received. — PolitiTweet.org

They say don't meet your heroes, the reality is never as good as your imagination. But I went to Japan with high expectations, and it surpassed them. https://t.co/A78M6X9DCj — PolitiTweet.org

@FlannelBidon Let's talk about that when it's real. I'll probably be yelling, actually, but no point in getting preemptively outraged. — PolitiTweet.org

Worst case scenario is if Apple just recreates Spotify / YouTube economics for news. With music, you get the benefit when you listen, so compensation tied to consumption is somewhat defensible. With news, you never need to read an investigative report to benefit from it. — PolitiTweet.org

My interest in Apple's new TV service is negligible. I'd rather spend my money on a monitor than a TV. My interest in Apple's new News subscription is massive. Much greater potential for fundamental change. — PolitiTweet.org

@JeremyLittau Hi Jeremy, would you be so kind as to follow me so I can DM you? — PolitiTweet.org

@tculpan @anandshimpi @scottwasson @KyleBennett The irony of seeing the bull in your avatar reporting on the perpetual downward motion of that company has been one of the mainstay features of my Twitter feed. I'll miss it when it's gone. — PolitiTweet.org

@tculpan @anandshimpi @scottwasson @KyleBennett <3 What will you do when HTC's shrinking earnings hit zero? — PolitiTweet.org

Vlad Savov @vladsavov

@Bindibadgi @revertice @IanCutress @anandshimpi @scottwasson @KyleBennett I refuse to like this tweet, because it articulates a shit situation that deprives our field of its smartest and most-informed writers. So I write this response tweet to agree through gritted teeth. — PolitiTweet.org

@jayrosen_nyu Hi Jay, would you be so kind as to follow me so I can DM you? — PolitiTweet.org

The three people I read the most before becoming a tech writer myself have all gone corporate. @anandshimpi of AnandTech now works at Apple. @scottwasson of The Tech Report is at AMD. @KyleBennett of HardOCP works for Intel. Economics of journalism is bad, friends. — PolitiTweet.org

Listen, I'm saying this as a friend. You gotta quit Facebook for your own good. https://t.co/KZXs0DilAs — PolitiTweet.org

There is, in fact, great consensus in the UK on one issue. The EU agrees wholeheartedly on this matter. No one fucking likes Theresa May. — PolitiTweet.org

@tmdpw @CaseyNewton Two men in love with their headphones. This is the world I want to live in. — PolitiTweet.org

@Azeurez So basically the Pixel 3 XL with the notch chopped off, a beefier battery, and some more RAM. — PolitiTweet.org

@PhoneDesigner Stop teasing us! This is phone geek cruelty. — PolitiTweet.org

@tsrandall @mslopatto But we've also seen zombies with blown-out chest cavities. How do you account for those without a diaphragm? — PolitiTweet.org

Vlad Savov @vladsavov

@mslopatto @adrs This is why it's good to have scientist friends. It just sounded suspicious to me when one of the Google Stadia presenters said "zombie breathing down your neck" and I had to ask. — PolitiTweet.org

Vlad Savov @vladsavov

Important question: do zombies breathe? — PolitiTweet.org

Google fined €1.5bn by EU because of exclusivity clauses and other contractual restrictions that kneecapped ads rivals, made Google only ads option for big websites. https://t.co/3SIAwdxohX — PolitiTweet.org

@PiersHR @tim @FT What exactly is clear about this challenge? Google announced a logo, a controller, and a bad name, Everything else is TBA. — PolitiTweet.org

Is Monsanto, now owned by Bayer, evil? Jury says yes. — PolitiTweet.org

What I miss is the level of corporate distrust we used to have vis-a-vis Microsoft when it was dominant. We used to bristle at any monopoly move or privacy invasion. Google functions with the exact same "shareholder value" incentive. But it's bigger. We should trust it less. — PolitiTweet.org
