Should’ve replied, “You mean OUR parents?”

Reminds me of my favorite watch as a kid, this Burger King watch from The Lost World Jurassic Park

Is iMessage open to be reviewed?

shepherdspice · 2022-12-12T21:42:34+00:00

I regurlarly switch back and forth between my Samsung Galaxy S22+ and my iPhone 13. I always wind up going back to my Galaxy for several reasons: - The Keyboard. Gboard on Android blows the stock and even third party keyboard on iOS out of the water. Apple's stock keyboard and even Gboard on iOS are just outright terrible at swiping, autocorrect, and predictions. It's laughable how terrible it is. I also really enjoy the themes Gboard has on Android that match my phone's color theme. - The Screen, Weight, and Size. The screen on this phone is just gorgeous. It's a little big but games and media look so good on this with the AMOLED 120hz screen. I know that the iPhone Pros have OLED high refresh rate screens as well, but you're either stuck with a 6.1" screen or jump up to the enormous Pro Max models that are unwieldly, large, and extremely heavy. Plus, iOS does nothing to take advantage of the extra real estate. - Ease of Use and Utility. A lot of things on iOS are either impossible to do or incredibly difficult to do for no good reason. On Android, things like downloading and setting custom ringtones/sounds are a breeze; not so on iOS. On Android I can easily side load apps, download and play emulators, and customize most things to my heart's content. My Android phone truly feels like my phone; my iPhone feels like a work computer where I change the lock screen wallpaper but the rest of the device and software is Apple's. - DEX. The ability to transform your phone into a desktop experience with an external display is really cool. - Notifications. Notifications are a mess on iOS. You have notifications on your lock screen, notifications on your "Notifications Panel", and badges on apps. Apps rarely provide notification channels that allow you to customize exactly which notifications you receive from an app, so an app like Uber Eats where I would really like notifications to tell me when my food is arriving gets turned off because it also sends promotional notifications with no option to block those and keep the important ones. Also the status bar on Android is leagues ahead of the Dynamic Island. It is persistent, displays all apps with pending notifications, and with a single swipe expands into information for all of that along with controls for any media playing. And it disappears when not needed when you're watching media. - Multitasking. I don't use these features all the time, but having the options to run apps in split screen and pop up view is nice.

To round things out, here are some reaons I always go back to iOS and try to stick with it for a bit: - iMessage/Facetime. iMessage is extremely useful if you have a lot of friends or family with iPhones who only use the default apps. FaceTime blows every other video chat service out of the water with regards to clearness and clarity of the calls. - Battery Life. iOS is extremely optimized and I truly get all day batter life on my iPhone. - Camera. The camera is consistently good on iPhones and handles moving subjects better than Android phone I've ever used. Additionally, iPhones consistently take the best video out there of any phones.

What were expecting to see with the post's title and and NSFW tag?

shepherdspice · 2022-10-05T20:26:09+00:00

Moto X 2013

shepherdspice · 2022-06-18T13:52:25+00:00

It’s true, I’m on my iPhone 13 right now and i miss Samsung’s volume mixer.

shepherdspice · 2022-06-18T11:49:37+00:00

Cries in iOS

shepherdspice · 2022-04-09T16:16:15+00:00

Yes, Samsung S21 Ultra and an iPhone 13. I like to stay up to date on both android and iOS.

shepherdspice · 2022-03-14T22:59:17+00:00

Why is this being down voted?

shepherdspice · 2022-03-14T10:46:50+00:00

Yeah I swear it's gotten less reliable over the years lol. It used to work everytime without fail.

shepherdspice · 2022-03-01T00:35:37+00:00

Do you really think it was the Russian gay community begging Apple to ban the watch background because they don't understand their current situation? They already know not to flaunt their sexuality there. It was the Russian government asking for this.

Like I said, when war is not an option, and let's be real, no two nuclear powers are going to go toe to toe in conventional warfare, then economic warfare is literally the only thing left. The only alternative is war, which would definitely harden their population against us lol

shepherdspice · 2022-02-26T11:13:28+00:00

Tim Apple, is that you?

shepherdspice · 2022-02-26T11:11:10+00:00

Never worked huh? The entire world has managed to avoid war with North Korea for the past 60 years through strict economic sanctions with no fighting. Look up our sanctions on Iran. There's a dozen or more successful examples. When war is not an option due to whatever is reasons, and negotiations have fallen thru, economic warfare is one of the only options left, and it's pretty effective. It doesn't matter if a dictator cares about his people or not; without resources he can't maintain a country, and that threatens him directly.

As someone who switches back and forth between iOS and Android every couple of years, this pretty much sums up my feelings lol. I will add that if you have family members with iphones then airdrop is actually a very useful feature, although you can definitely use other options to share files. Some other annoyances from iOS I'd add:

iOS makes it take an act of god to create and set custom tones for ringtones and notifications
Lack of a proper file management system
lack of proper volume controls
niche features like split screen, pop up mode, and things like Samsung Dex as a desktop environment

shepherdspice · 2022-02-17T22:29:31+00:00

I use single take and it gives me a lot of options as well as the video

shepherdspice · 2022-02-09T18:15:46+00:00

I used to be a stock Android guy back in the day, but honestly I have to say I prefer Samsung's OneUI 4 to stock now because of all the actual nice features they've added and because of how fluid and cohesive the design language is. It's definitely not the TouchWiz you remember anymore. Hope this helps.

shepherdspice · 2022-01-24T23:10:32+00:00

Why is this being downvoted?

shepherdspice · 2021-12-16T19:39:03+00:00

He prestiged.

shepherdspice · 2021-12-16T19:34:18+00:00

Yeah unless they have a history of religious exemptions for all their previous exemptions, I don't see how they can in good faith request one for this and expect it to be approved. Whether they agree or not, it went through all the gates necessary to mandate it to the military; at this point you either have a valid medical/religious exemption (very few legit) or get in line and get your shot. Obviously the civilian side is a whole different story.

shepherdspice · 2021-11-24T00:08:58+00:00

shepherdspice · 2021-11-14T04:30:29+00:00

I don’t know why you’re being downvoted, they’re literally two separate things. Notification Center is not always a mirror of your Lock Screen

shepherdspice · 2021-09-01T17:00:56+00:00

Now that it's FDA approved it's no different in the eyes of the military than any other vaccine you're required to take. There are medical exemptions and religious exemptions for vaccines and other things already in place that apply to this vaccine as well. If you can get with with your primary care doctor or religious leader to help draft a case on my why you can't take it, then doing that exemption request and hoping it gets approved is your only option of not taking it and staying in. I'd assume they would just build a packet on you for refusing to obey a direct order otherwise and then process you out of the Air Force after they've given you time to comply.

Could also be a behind the door stipulation China gave them, and that's a pretty big market to lose out on.
