Actor / Cartoonist / Author / Humorist (and kinda bad at all of them), but I’ve failed at more things than most people have tried.

Married, poly, old and in a lot of pain. Played a doctor on TV. Former G+ Influencer. An actual wizard.

I also exist on Mastodon

  • Long ago, a storm was heading toward the city of Quin’lat. The people sought protection within the walls, all except one man who remained outside. I went to him and asked what he was doing. “I am not afraid,” he said. “I will not hide my face behind stone and mortar. I will stand before the wind and make it respect me.” I honored his choice and went inside. The next day, the storm came, and the man was killed. The wind does not respect a fool. Do not stand before the wind.






  • Yeah that’s my big fear now that they’re out of the game. They took some wacky and wild chances, but that also led to them developing some stuff that’s industry standard nowadays. They had capacitive screens and wide angle camera lenses before Apple, and while it didn’t “fold” like the Pixel Fold does, I believe the Flex line was the first phone to have a flexed/flexible screen - back in 2015.

    Now that they’re gone, I am afraid it’s just going to be Apple and Samsung copying off one another with diminishing returns.
