I'm not against expandable storage at all, I wish more phones did have it as an option to be clear.

I am curious what exactly is going on these SD cards that everyone wants though. I personally haven't gotten close to my storage limit since the default internal memory was 32GB.

My dad used to have a phone what had a legitimate micro-hdmi output on it. I can't remember the exact model Some kind of DROID I think.

Edit It was the DROID X.

For a while I had one of those jack inserts that was a micro-usb that had a mag-safe type of charging cable that went with it. It was cool but I always had to keep my own cable with me or id have to remove the little dongle thing and it would get lost.

Something kind of like this.

Telephoto seems like something Google could do to really set the next Pixel Xa series apart from the competition. If they care to that is.

I have maintained for a while that if phones came with 2 USB ports instead of just 1 you could have your cake and eat it too. My biggest gripe with the lack of a headphone jack is that I can't charge my phone and listen at the same time. 2 ports, one on each side for right and left handed people to pick their favorite charging location and you get a ton of other options for peripherals that way.

From what I remember, the M9 had some issues with processor overheating and didn't live up to the M8 legacy. Id love to see a tablet with a proper kickstand come back around. I got a first generation Microsoft Surface when I went to college and the kickstand on it just wasn't good. Plus the battery life was awful. I ended up selling it and just buying a regular laptop. That Yoga sounds like what I wished the Surface would have been.

I know it's not the same thing but the new flip phones from Motorola and Samsung have 4-ish inch screens on the front. You can run all your apps on the front screen too.

I also have had trouble during upgrades in the past.

I'll have to disagree about the purple and orange theme though. I'm personally a big fan.

In the Beginning is an anime that follows the Christian old testament up through the birth of Jesus.

There's also Superbook about 2 kids and a robot who time travel to bible times get involved in the biblical events.

Solok woke up the day he went to DS9 and chose all the violence that logic would allow.

There is a quote from Winston Churchill that says "if you are going through hell, keep going." as in, the only way out of a bad situation is to move forward.

My grandpa always used to say that "you can't jump in puddles unless it's a rainy day" as a way to say a bad situation comes with its own opportunities or upsides (as in bad weather sucks but at least you can have fun jumping in the puddles).

Hope everything works out for you all. I always appreciate a card from someone no matter the situation.

Not really sure what Firefox is up to a lot of times. But the Thunderbird's team is really active and receptive right now. They are updating and revamping a ton lately.
