the light sensor in the phone SUCKS. and the speakers suck. those will never be overcome in software.

Eh, can't really speak from experience on the light sensor.

Now you got me curious. I'm gonna try to see if I can make a python script to mess with the light sensor.

Tell them that it is so your phone can eventually grow a beard.

Beard growing is a major feature in Android 3.0, codename: zz top

if I wasn't ditching this phone soon I'd be happy just to get 2.0.1

Why are you ditching your hero? It is not a /that/ bad.

http://xpc.xabbu.net/ Compare how the links work in the three sections at the bottom. Thoughts?
2010-04-10 10048, 2010
nikki
I don't see any difference between the left and the middle
2010-04-10 10059, 2010

The linkable area is different between the two.
2010-04-10 10025, 2010
nikki
oh, right
2010-04-10 10027, 2010
navap
In the left one the entire div is a link, it's actually an <a> not a <div>.
2010-04-10 10039, 2010
nikki
I like the one on the right the most
2010-04-10 10033, 2010

Really? That's the one I like the least :(

I'm not a fan of the orange underline on hover.
2010-04-10 10010, 2010
nikki
I don't like how the left/middle ones don't act like a normal link (hover and nothing changes), and the left one... hovering over what looks like the page background and having it be a link is just messing with my head :P
2010-04-10 10000, 2010
navap
hmm that one was probably the wrong one to demo that on. It's got the shortest text.
2010-04-10 10010, 2010
nikki
I'm not particularly attached to the underline though
2010-04-10 10056, 2010
navap
What if I make the text and the image area all linkable? That would also include some whitespace underneath the text.
2010-04-10 10005, 2010
navap
But it would leave out the h2 area.
2010-04-10 10052, 2010
iarp
i'll second you on that about the orange hovers lol.
2010-04-10 10011, 2010
nikki
I'm not really convinced, I prefer just linking the text :/
2010-04-10 10016, 2010
navap
I removed the underline from the third box. I think it looks a bit better, but it's not very consistent with the rest of the links on the site now.
2010-04-10 10015, 2010
nikki
having no hover stuff at all like the middle one isn't consistent with the rest of the site either ;)
2010-04-10 10030, 2010
navap
heh
2010-04-10 10049, 2010
navap
But it's /radically/ inconsistent, so it's allowed :p The third box is just slightly inconsistent.
2010-04-10 10029, 2010
nikki
yeah yeah :P
2010-04-10 10029, 2010
navap shrugs and leaves it for now
2010-04-10 10003, 2010

Unless you have any suggestions for changing/adding content...

Although I'm sure you could get it in under 80MB or so.

nikki: so, you would like to see the differences between libunac and the code we have in ngs, right?
the first one looks ok, there's a bunch of characters which are encoded twice thanks to some crazy korean encoding which encoded each pronunciation separately even if they looked identical, and there's always duplicates simply because making sure the character you want isn't there before adding it is difficult when you've got thousands of characters
2010-04-10 10038, 2010

not sure what the second one is, I get an undefined glyph
