Personnel

gollark: Why have icons? Apple devices have high-res screens, right? Just make it say the name of the application in very small text over and over again to fill up the squares.
gollark: Personally I consider rounding and shading very uncool.
gollark: Yes, why?
gollark: I maybe can (although likely not *now* given the situation), but it would be annoying and expensive. Also I have no idea where or how to.
gollark: My Wileyfox Swift 1 was pretty great, it had a plastic back cover, dual SIM cards, and a removable battery, but a design flaw in the micro-USB port apparently made most of the existing devices become unusable after about two years.
