@Mitch Yes, it's a different one. That one was two thousand miles away. This one gets here tomorrow night after a high of 60, and lasting till Tuesday. Currently they're thinking maybe 8-15", but that could be off by a factor of 2 either direction. No, a foot is nothing special here.

@Jasper Open back headphones would solve that problem if you ever have it again. The open back has less noise isolation, so the coworker could still hear the outside world reasonably well.

@KitZ.Fox thanks. The new mobile chat is really nice.

How is it improved?

Yah the new mobile UI rocks.

@Ϻ.Λ.Ʀ. What's so different about it?

@Cerberus The fact that you can use it without too much yelling.

@Ϻ.Λ.Ʀ. But...the old interface worked well enough?

What's new?

Have they fixed the reply thingy?

You can reply, star, click users etc.

And you can do it without going Argh.

i.e. the UI now has big enough buttons not to be misclicked.

Ah, I see it now.

You have to tap on a message first.

It's better than "you have to cross the Pacific first".

I meant, I hadn't seen the buttons yet.

Well, for some people, anything clickable is a button.

And crossing the pacific doesn't really do anything

@Mitch It's supposed to be one of those pranks you find out about in the middle of the ocean.

@Ϻ.Λ.Ʀ. so many clickable things. You need a place guaranteed to be non clickable. A click place to unclick things

@Mitch Click on "Ask Queschenz" and give your feedback; or join in The Tavern; balpha's looking for feedback.

I didn't know I was supposed to tap on a message to get those options.

Learned helplessness

Ah come on; give 'em some credit. It's way better than that previous shtoopid UI that literally shackled you.

I was talking about the previous one

OK, I take my words back then.

@Ϻ.Λ.Ʀ. the fancy new interface won't let you!!

I'm not on mobile now BWAHAHAHA

Welcome to the future, history person.

By the strangest of coincidences, I am.

The primary difficulty for me is the smaller font. So tiny!

chatting on mobile is as weird as programming on a tablet to me :)

Well, that's certainly a view.

@Arrowfar Not distracting enough anymore.

@crl texting on a desktop is weirder

@Arrowfar Hey! sorry I missed you. And... you're probably asleep now.
