Wishing the poster above me a Happy Birthday!

Playing Undertale for the first time.

I had to fight a ghost, but instead I was friendly to it until it put on a top hat and asked me for my opinion, and then I flirted with it. The game treated that as a win and let me proceed.

Oh yes. I like this Undertale.

Watching annoying people on Househunters.

WHY do people insist on double sinks?

Doing research on my next phone. I'm up for upgrade in January.

I'm thinking Google Nexus 6P, LG G5, or Samsung GS7. I'm hearing the G5 may be Windows 10 based, so that will be a nerp if it's true.

But the Nexus 6P is leading the way so far. Price is cheaper, but it will have the Snapdragon 810 processor and a 3475 maH battery instead of the Snapdragon 820 and 4000 maH battery.

Either way, the battery will beat the 1715 maH battery of the iPhone 6S.

My last four phones have been Nexus phones (two 4s and two 5s). I don't think you can beat them for the money.

However, there is a reason that I have had two of each. Get a good case. P

I would consider a 6 but that's really approaching tablet size.

Yeah, I'm reading every review that the 6P with Marshmallow preloaded may be the best smartphone to date. I'm a tinkerer and a fledgling developer, so my last iPhone drove me nuts. Plus its nearly criminal to put a battery that small in a 6th gen smartphone.

I'll probably go with the 6P. It'll be $350 cheaper than the 128GB S7, and even though the S7 has the next gen processor in it, I've never liked the handset feel in Samsung smartphones.

I've loved my LG G2, but it doesn't have enough power/RAM to run lollipop. Bogs down a lot. And the battery is on its last leg...

If I know more about how these projects are done than the engineers then I want their pay scale!

Holy shit, your employer lets engineers near customers?  

Not if we can help it!

Internal conference... Two Engineers, a Sr. Designer (me) and a Jr. Designer.

The Samsung phones are too expensive, and if I'm not mistaken, you're at Samsung's mercy as to whether or not you'll get updates. I wouldn't plan on it.

My mom is using my old nexus 4, and while she isn't going to be getting marshmallow, she did get lolipop, and IIRC it shipped with ice cream sandwich. So, three major updates? How many did you get on your Samsung?

That's really the reason I went with the nexus line, to get updates unencumbered by carrier shitware and limitations.
