This is deliberate. It gives me the illusion that my mobile phone is operated by technologies that I understand and can control. I know it's an illusion but I find it comforting...
At some point I'm going to have to reserve a week and actually investigate how to make the damn thing do the 12001 things that it is apparently able to do but I am too feeble to know how or why without becoming infuriated and woeful.
I think I may have missed the 21st century leaving the station, is the 20th century going back again, and can I get on it...?
