Yeah I had the same problem. I just had to commit to being a slow typer for a while, but I inproved quicker than I thought. Still learning tho. I keep a regular keyboard I can switch to with the button on the bottom right of the home buttons for the rare times I need to type something urgently.
Have you heard of thumb-key keyboard? It's basically a 3x3 grid with swipe gestures for extra characters. I've been trying to switch to it for a bit cause I think eventually my typing will be faster and it will be a better one handed typing experience.
Anyway, I think this would work well on a small screen device too, if you can get used to a whole new keyboard paradigm.
On the point about why they didn't use cows instead of humans as an energy source. I think I've read that in the original conception of the Matrix, the humans' brains were meant to be used for computation for the machines, rather than the humans being energy sources. This was changed since computers were new to the general public in 1999 and it was believed the concept would be too confusing.
That would be in the same spirit as the system of government in ancient Athens. Common people being chosen by lottery to have a seat in governement. From the little I know on the subject, I always thought it seemed like a really solid democratic system.
So true. I find it so disheartening seeing century old images of Canadian cities with street cars. I've even seen photos of small towns in New Brunswick that had street cars. Not only is it possible to do proper public transit nowadays, we could have had it all along.
