  • I had an HTC Wizard that ran on Windows Phone 5.0. It really was a piece of shit, but I loved the slide out keyboard and the fact that I could stream internet radio with it (when I was on wifi).

    But I remember having to explain to someone that no, just because it ran ‘Windows’ it couldn’t run Limewire. That said, it’s entirely possible that someone wrote a version of Limewire that it could run.



  • I’m not massively into horror, because I don’t generally like feeling uncomfortable. But the horror flicks I do enjoy tend to be incredibly empathetic, and actually about something other than the horror.

    For example, my favourite horror movie is Dark Water, a Japanese flick from 2002. It’s creepy as hell and genuinely unsettling, but at its heart it’s about heartbreak and trying to learn how to move on. It speaks to the human condition without having to rely on simple jumpscares.

    In fact, I think the most successful horror movies (from an artistic perspective, rather than box office take) tend to be the ones that talk about what it is to be human.
