Before iphones, almost all(all?) phones had resistive touch screen, which required you to actually push your finger on the screen to do stuff.
I remember the resistive touchscreens! My dad had bought a BlackBerry (oh man I miss them) for his business work and it had those screens. It definitely took work to get used to because my mom was using a Samsung Galaxy Y at the time... Smallest screen ever but that capacitive touch screen 🤌🏼.
As for the rest of your comment, the multi-touch was definitely insane. I can't find this anywhere atm but I remember reading that they introduced pinch to zoom, which is definitely a flex. Maybe not the first, but on capacitive smartphones, probably yes.
Are you the fabled "well-formatted paragraph guy" I was told about? 😂
Hmm...
That's kind of true as well.
While Skype and Hangouts were definitely what brought video calls to the rest of the world, I guess FaceTime really was America's biggest introduction to video calls...
I understand what you mean, but that's not really true.
This is the Television equivalent of "Video Games cause kids to be violent". If the kid was mentally unstable and needed help without the game, the game is the least of the parents' worries.
Same here. If the person was incapable of following rules and abiding by basic decency standards, then they will be reckless with or without such shows. Classic example: lots of small city residents of India have never seen Top Gear or any such show. Yet the quality of driving is terrible. I say this as a native resident of India.
Reason: driving tests are not enforced well enough.
Speeding is definitely the culprit. But accidents due to speeding have been an issue long before shows like Top Gear ever happened.
The issue is terrible drivers. Fast cars or Horse Carriages, doesn't matter.
I agree with your remark about keeping cars that can do more than the speed limit off the public roads, but sadly that won't solve accidents due to speeding. Because that's just one of the reasons.
I don't like the lack of a native app on Figma. Also, the lack of offline files.
But it wasn't Adobe. So fuck them.
Then I heard they were buying Figma and that was the last straw. I switched to Lunacy (by icons8). It's got a native app for Windows, works offline AND supports Figma project importing 😁😁😁. I miss the Figma plugin store, NGL. But I can just add stuff to a Figma project and then import into Lunacy at this point 😂
The idea that driving is "fun" is cancer that killed more people than.. well, real cancer. Shows like Top Gear that promote this idea are responsible for more deaths than Nazis.
I was with you right up until here. There's no way to upvote and downvote different parts of a comment, is there?
I was under the impression that this thread was for unpopular opinions... 😐
I thought people thought it was a philosophical masterpiece. And I thought it was garbage. I understood fuckall. And I was watching it at my peak time during the day on the appropriate amount of caffeine to stimulate my brain. Nothing.
I may be dumb. Maybe. But I didn't understand shit, that's for sure.

User-friendly is a subjective opinion I guess... But yeah.
