    Hits & Misses - What do you like most/least about the Moto X Style?

    We should remember that despite the 5.7-inch screen, the Moto X is 4.2 mm shorter and 1.6 mm narrower than the iPhone 6 Plus with the 5.5 inch display. Add in the classic Moto curve and the phone will probably handle better than the screen size indicates. I'll be jumping to something from my...

    Improper focus for non-macro subjects

    Gone through the update, and no difference. In addition, it seems the direction of the "double-exposure" look depends on the orientation of the camera (vertical in landscape, horizontal in portrait), which means it is much more likely to be a hardware problem. I just called Google and (since I...

    Improper focus for non-macro subjects

    I've been enjoying my Nexus 5 for almost a year now, but recently the camera has been acting weirdly. For macro, the focusing is fine: But farther away, not only is focusing much slower, but it never properly focuses: It's weird though, sometimes I'll catch a glimpse of the viewfinder when...

    Taken on Nexus 5 w/ Google Camera's lens blur; color-corrected using Snapseed. An unusual perspective on the viola, in a jarring setting.

    Weekly Photo Contest: Back to school

    I am already back in the school game (curse you, local school district!) but I think this summarizes my "back to school" mentality this year perfectly. Binders, more binders, college applications (woo hoo, senior year!), cluttered desk, but in the end I am ready with my pencil to tear through...

    Linux: Which distro do you run and why?

    Re: Which distro do you run and why? I'm currently running Ubuntu 12.10 because I am on a laptop and I want more compatibility, but in the past I have run all the way from bigger boys like Fedora and openSUSE to Frugalware and Manjaro. If anyone wants a Gentoo-esque rolling-release distro that...

    [Closed] Nexus 7-a-day giveaway - Dec. 22

    The people directly struck by the Connecticut tragedy are in deep need for comfort. I guess if we all just share a tiny amount of our happiness with those in need, we might just be able to provide that. Happy holidays, everyone.

    [Closed] Nexus 7-a-day giveaway - Dec. 21

    I bought a Nexus 4 on November 13, and this is the first Android device I've purchased. Funnily enough, I ordered mine during my physics class with no problems, and though I did get on the dreaded backorder list, that's still miles better than pretty much having to wait for a month just to order...
