Trust my rage

Thank you, Tom. I would never have found that on my own.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

OTOH, that sounds like something my cat would find....

Stephanie,

I find the button change HUGELY irritating.

Our wings are not tired

I'm not happy about the button change either.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Is anyone? I've also been told that it only mutes alerts? Which I guess could be handy so you don't get Facebook updates in the middle of watching a movie, but if I bought a device which came with a "mute button" that's not what I'd expect it to do...

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

you know, I am not sure if it only mutes alerts. it doesn't mute everything though - not that I use this button enough to know what it does beside the fact it doesn't do what I want it to do.

I had pandora on one day, pressed the button and pandora was still playing. WTF?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Anyone use Opera on a phone? Sometime, Opera stops going to new pages and I have to close Opera and start it again to get it to work. This happens after as little as five minutes of use. But it might just be the phone.

Which phone? I'm beginning to suspect it on my second phone now. It seems to be the app between consistent web connections and intermittent ones. It's freaking annoying.

Does anyone have a recommendation for another Android browser other than Dolphin? I want to run two on my phone.

Which phone?

It's a Virgin LG Rumor Touch

I was annoyed that Virgin came out with an Android phone a month after I bought this one. But the phone works fine otherwise....

What OS is that?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I run Opera mini on my LG Rumor 2 and haven't had problems.
