There is a polish on their platforms that is best in class

As someone who was an Android user and tried switching to an iPhone, I see lots of weird bugs and behaviors I never had with Android. Sure, the OS is slightly better, and rarely crashes, but everything else is a little bit worse.

Literally every Google app is better than Apple’s. Be it Google maps, keyboard, mail, calendar, etc. But because they aren’t made for iPhone, there’s all kinds of little bugs, mostly visual/UI related.

And then there’s all these nonsensical decisions that make my life harder. Hotspot can’t run with wifi on, you can’t record your calls (very useful when talking to banks, government, etc.), can’t even arrange the icons in “home” screen to fixed locations or make them smaller.

I finally figured out that when Apple fans talk about polish, they just mean it looks pretty and feels high-end. Which, sure, I can concede that. But that’s not what I actually care about.

Anyway, rant over, sorry to take it out on you!

So I guess you’re still using it?

It’s too early to know what was the cause of the intelligence failure. But I wouldn’t be surprised if it was because Iran introduced new technology and protocols, that went unnoticed below the usual chatter.

Israel Defense Forces say women and children have been taken hostage.

Odd phrasing. Hamas confirmed it, and there are videos and photos proving it to be the case.

So you’re saying the walls of an old microwave might do the trick

Oh, so that’s what duck-typing means!
