@matigo depends on what else is on the pizza, but I'm with you that it's perfectly acceptable.
Excoriating people for objectionable opinions doesn’t change minds, it merely drives those thoughts underground away from the sunlight where they can be examined.
It’s like Dale Carnegie said: a drop of honey gathers more flies than a gallon of gall.
@jussipekonen while I am not a developer, I talked with plenty of them over the years, including some of the ones that develop the mobile apps at Check Point.
The TL;DR of it is: Apple restricts you in a lot of ways, but provides a lot of frameworks you can leverage. On Android, you have a bit more freedom but you have to build a lot of things yourself, which leads to some of the inconsistencies you see.
For example, a couple of our apps allow you to view Microsoft Office documents. Apple has something built into the OS to do that. On Android, this is not included.

On the plus side, I was able to get my doctor to agree to let me get another blood test before seeing him again. On the minus side, I'm still arguing with them about getting a referral to the place that I get my CPAP supplies from so my overpriced health insurance will pay for it.
Apparently my fidget spinners took a detour into the Gaza Strip before arriving at my house yesterday.
@joeo10 and people wonder why Netflix is focusing more on original series. Same with Amazon.
@kdfrawg hardware does vary widely, even amongst the expensive phones. The thing I tend to notice first: amount of included internal storage.
The Alcatel OneTouch Flint I got had 16gb of internal storage, which is more than enough for my purposes. The Kyocera Hydro View only contained 8gb. Which means, after loading just a few apps, the phone runs out of storage.
Then you get to deal with SD card support, which sounds great in theory, but in reality, it's a pain in the ass.

@kdfrawg It's also been rebooted and the cover sheet was added to the TPS report that was submitted with the ticket :P
Helpdesks are clearly not designed to deal with people like me.
My experience tends to go this way:
- Ticket describes what needs to be done and why (something that falls outside of standard operating procedure).
- They then attempt to follow standard operating procedure which (shock, surprise) doesn't work for the very reasons I described in the ticket.
- Helpdesk sends it to the right people who ultimately do what I said to do in the first place.
