Potentially the longest thread in history...

wait what did I miss?
What happened to your iPhone? I thought you were over Android
I think the S8 looks cool but I'd never go back to Samsung again, waiting for the new OnePlus or pixel

I don't like the button on the 7. I don't want to lose the performance benefits of the iPhone but this button drives me crazy.

Anyone in central Kentucky/Clarksville, TN area looking for a job? Seriously. My company lost our KY tech and is now looking for a replacement. Here's a link to the CL ad they have posted. The location is listed as Paducah as that is where the previous tech lived but it is not an office or anything. The job is a remote technician position, meaning you work in the field and not out of an office. The regional office is in Birmingham, AL which HQ is in Lubbock, TX. I've been doing this gig for four and half years now and can say it's not a bad job, but I sometimes do bitch and complain about a bad day now and again.

Only reason I sold my N6P is cos I got the S7E for free
I'm waiting for the next Pixel (hoping for a cheaper price) or the next OnePlus

Between dealing with ****, and dealing with ****... bleh. -.-

Been working like crazy on the house due to stupid storm damage that happened over a month ago, working on all the family vehicles has consumed all my time, and recently I noticed a disk acting flaky on my server... Today (in the last 30 minutes) the RAID array it was in went offline and the controller is throwing random errors for that array, errors that don't exist. Been trying to get the host to come back up, but it just wont unless I remove the array from the controller. Such lovely times.

Are you talking about the non-clicky home button ? or is it broken ?

Only used it briefly but didn't really have a problem with it. The haptic feels nice.

Get it warm, it'll shut off and you have to use an on screen one that won't go away until you reboot the phone.

Ugh that sucks. Is it a known fault or are you just unlucky..?
