Greetings, friend. I'm Cave Johnson, CEO of Aperture Science. As you've no doubt learned after your time in cryosleep, human civilization as we knew it was utterly destroyed over a thousand years ago. We've attempted to rebuild as best we could with the only remaining book on the planet… [sigh]"The Rock Says", the autobiography of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. So. Let's all pause for a moment to smell what the Rock was, is, and forever will be… cooking. no file

the one thing i miss from wire (messaging app) is being able to doodle things and send as messages

is there anything like that for other apps on android? maybe something that hooks into the file upload (where you can already pick "gallery" or "camera")

now that i have a phone with a stylus more than ever i want to effortlessly send doodles to discord and telegram

in reply to maple "mavica" syrup [6502]

it's fascinating how more boring, less creative and interactive, computing has been for the past 20 years. we used to be able to do this sort of thing (send quick doodles without having to open up 2-3 separate programs) in MSN messenger for crying out loud. now we're pocketing supercomputers that can barely open up and share an image without going through contrived pipelines

Ah that's good to know (and does seem familiar) but again, if I ever accessed any such systems, it would have been remotely. In 1994 I had probably spent a lot more time in SunOS, IRIX, NeXT/NeXTSTEP and even Linux shells. Most of the DEC hardware I interacted with then (and even up through an employer I had as recently as 2006) was running OpenVMS on such things (eww).
