allaboutgeorge's unstorytime beta

So, yeah, like, kind of opposite of or orthogonally related to the system of those sequential relations that any event has to any other, as past, present, or future; indefinite and continuous duration regarded as that in which events succeed one another -- but with pictures!

Frozen treat fail

Western parking lot view from Contra Costa Times newsroom

One nice thing about a slow day at work is that there’s just enough time to explore upcoming Android builds. So far, Ice Cream Sandwich hasn’t melted me yet. It’s just left me cold and wet and sticky and frustrated.

I keep looking around for builds to try. I’ve tried the Galnet MIUI version and the OneCosmic build release candidate versions of the ICS Galaxy S port. ”Maybe this one will work, bugs and other features won’t be so alpha-slow.” But no, no joy so far.

I get it, though. The cats at XDA Developers are hacking as fast as they can, with an eye toward learning as they share. I can’t be mad at them for the progress they’ve made.

I just have to wait for them to produce a daily driver, since I can’t code and I can’t rely on Samsung to update other than through leaks. (Note to self: While I wait, I can still continue to push my comfort level with non-userspace.)
