Screen size measures intelligence?


You're calling other people stupid?

Not my theory, someone on this forum

Rubio was kinda right, size of hands directly correlates to how many inches one can handle

Guys im a fan of big screen Phones and bought them used them and loved since day one. Still do. But hands has nothing to do with it, nor intelligence. It's one thing that makes them boom.

Do you think humans have bigger hands today than 5 years ago? The only thing that changed is the use cases where bigger screen simply beat a smaller screen at more and more cases.

Oh yeah dave ...
humans got huuuuuuuuugggeee hands ever since the manual labour and exercise they get from using tablets...
we have been evolving at such a phenomenal speed we can now actually "watch" our bodies evolve ...
Bwahahahaaahaa...

More like the reverse if anything...
tiny hands ...smell like cabbage...like a carnie's ...

If any "big-hand" syndrome is at work concerning tablets...and tablet size...
I'd take the cue from this...as being more responsible....

https://vine.co/v/iqAPqDAOl5g

and on another note...

MSCION for prez...!
vote for less irresponsibility in gov't ...today!
If I could cross-border vote I would man...
Any tmo-er here...
has more ethic in their fingernail scrapings and toe lint
than the moral entirety of the current candidates combined...
on both sides of the the election too...

MSCION's got my vote.

All ******** aside, mscion is a good candidate indeed. But what would he do about this tablet scam if elected? I think the only way to solve it is to point Donald T at the general direction of Jolla office and then take cover.

Incorrect. Intelligence has everything to do with. Not the users' intelligence though. The manufacturers' marketing departments'. Big devices are easier and cheaper to make than same spec smaller devices. The producers have made an excellent job marketing the cheaper stuff as "premium" and made Joe Public fall for it. Well done.

Joe public that is 2 feet smaller than joe publicv2 might have his limit at 4-4.5 inches screen, call it stupidity as much as you like, but if joe publicv2 is able to handle 5.5 inches it's just biology, no need to envy and call others stupid, we're not running for a president here, extra inch helps

Done that.

You sure have a solution how to power the pi reliably for some hours and reduce the thickness and weight a bit?
I used a 6000mah powerbank and the total weight was still "impractical".
Atleast thats where this hack ended for me and the pi went back to its pibowcase doing Kodi/OSMC hooked to a projector.

Thickness: remove the USB/LAN contacts is probadly easy task.

Save power yes RPi is eating current :(

But there is probadly some tricks:

* get rid of the LAN chip or turn it off if possible
* USB HUB onboard, power it off atleast when not used.
* Wifi same as above

I guess there is plenty to do in the OS to save power.

Even more Incorrect. Yes they get more space but Samsung and other top not tech companies can easily make 4 inch highend devices IF They want to. ITs just that they won't sell as much since it's actually nicer to watch movies, browse the web or work with mails, or read books on a bigger screen.
