So right now I am locked on getting a Moto G and I need opinions.

Should I just go for it and get the Moto G5 Plus right now knowing that the Moto G6 line is around the corner, or wait for the G6 to come out and get it when it does?

Not trying to replace my iPhone (despite its currently-flawed screen), but to rather replace my aged Moto G3 and have a backup phone handy.

The Moto G6 has a better battery and larger screen so it'll be a good choice if the price difference isn't too much of a concern. :P

I'll probably inquire into coming back, but I'm thinking I'll hold out until I'm done school, especially now that I just got my first programming job and I'm super excited about it.

...I'll also need a new username. Good luck trying to type this one out :P
My country lay within a vast desert. When the sun rose into the sky, a burning wind punished my lands, searing the world.

And when the moon climbed into the dark of night, a frigid gale pierced our homes. No matter when it came, the wind carried the same thing... Death.

But the winds that blew across the green fields of Hyrule brought something other than suffering and ruin.

I coveted that wind, I suppose.

I would have said "moderator" instead of "staff" but it censors it out :U

Finally cleaned out the inside of my mouse. Scroll wheel works like brand new again. Just got another 2-3 years out of this mouse because of it, ha!
Definitely!

Also Goo Gone works wonders for cleaning sticky surfaces too :>

I love me some Goo Gone. Always have a bottle on hand.
i always called it goo-be-gone, or gooby gone, lol. i need some, i don't have any :( gooby gone pls

i would really like to enjoy some new technology these days, but i really can't say i have reason to. i already have a wonderful ThinkPad X1 Yoga so I can enjoy OLED, my Xperia phone does plenty and i really just need to RMA it for its bent frame, my desktop is still running a Core i3-6100 but it has an RX 460 which is more than enough, the old Core 2 Quad desktop runs as a file server, and there's nothing else i could buy that isn't totally frivolous. most of the things i'd like to get to tinker with would be absurdly expensive, at least in the thousands, so yeah thats not happening lol

I'm still wanting to do a PC build, but I'm waiting for the prices of GPUs to come down. I could buy a prebuilt for cheaper, even with the trash Canadian dollar, but building a PC is much more satisfying.

Speaking of RMAs I am waiting for iFixit to get back to me on a screen they sent me that had a defect for my iPhone. In the meantime I have been using my Moto G again, although its camera sucks. :|

Been working my way through a merge request my husband filed a few days ago for our Community Software, and I've managed to write some stunningly generic code for the routing functionality used by Express. I posted it on GitHub Gist, and there are some homemade doc comments I wrote breaking it all down.

I know JavaScript is quite often underestimated, but this is arguably more straightforward than C++ when it comes to metaprogramming. It gives the JIT compiler as much room as possible to optimise, thanks to the power of function expressions and async.

Back to using my iPhone again! Although what's interesting to note here is that it's the same screen as before instead of a new one since I somehow got it to work again.

I don't even want to know about that, because I'll be starting my BSAS in IT in August, which picks up from where my AS left off.
