Steve Kondik? I guess. Android Guru? No doubt.
I've taken a glance at his twitter thing. Says he's a snowboarder and trancer. I stopped there to avoid any semblances to "cyber stalking".
But really, who is this guy? I mean, at first, I get an image of this suave, debonair, sun-glasses-wearing-even-though-its-dark playboy by day and closet android-dev by night. I mean, how could he not be the Bruce Wayne of xda, as cool as his roms are.
But then i get to thinking about it.
He must work on this stuff tirelessly, sometimes endlessly to get updates up as quick as he sometimes does. Not to mention he's twittering and updating a blog. I'm not much of a "social networker" but I can imagine how time consuming this must all be. Is my image of cyanogen a.k.a Steve unrealistic? Is he really some middle-aged, balding, white-guy with a beer belly and cheetoh stains on his three-day old white-tee, sitting at his desk of 7 computer screens with his big slurp in one hand and typing furiously on his three ergonomic keyboards with the other?
I should hope not.
I really wanted to post this in the "Dream" boards but as this is not "related to any phone" I thought I better do right and put it in here.
And guys, really, I mean this:
With All Due Respect.

Oh, and I'm posting this as my fiancée drives us back home from our christmas trip up to her fam's. Thanks for usb tethering cyan
That description can fit almost any deserving geek/nerd so I think you will have to go into more detail......
I'm just sayin'... Is he Bruce Wayne or is he this guy. I don't think we can ever really know, unless he himself comments on this thread. I'm not really all that interested in knowing either Just a random thought that crossed my mind and that I wanted to share with the community. I don't really every have much to say in the dream boards, as you can see by my post count.
and what does any of that have to do with marlon brando :S
cyanogen quote
"Im am you father"

Marlon Brando, THE Godfather, who will just as soon buy you dinner as blow your brains out, but "with all due respect". Come on guy!
Only one will "make you an offer you can't refuse"
Some say he naturally faces magnetic north, and that all of his legs are hydraulic... all we know is, he's called Cyanogen.
Some say that his politics are terrifying, and that he once punched a horse to the ground... all we know is, he's called Cyanogen.
Some say he's wanted by the CIA, and that he sleeps upside down like a bat... all we know is, he's called Cyanogen.
Haha, the Stig, I love it!
Some say that if he ate a sausage his brain would implode, and that he is wanted in 251 countries for indecent exposure, all we know is, he's called Cyanogen...
Some say that his genitals are on upside down, and that if he could be bothered with it, he could crack the Da Vinci Code in 43 seconds.
Some say he knows two facts about ducks, and both of them are wrong.
If you have five dollars and Cyanogen has five dollars, Cyanogen has more money than you.
He once had an awkward moment, just to see what it felt like.
Even though he's had sex with every woman on the planet, he is still a virgin. Nobody takes ANYTHING from cyanogen.
Let's avoid the Chuck Norris references >.<
I like the magnetic north one though
This thread sure has taken an awkward turn... lol but I guess I didn't quite know what to expect.
Some say he isn’t machine washable, and all his potted plants are called Steve.

I've just spent last 10 minutes trying to login here. Everytime i inputed confused my username and pass, i got the "thank you for logging in" screen, and the next screen was the usual forum screen, but unlogged. And i kept doing it a couple more times. I already thought the board is going down, and after trying everything i could, i looked at the address bar. Turns out while i was looking at that french topic about blackstone games that was translated via google or smth else, i clicked one of the links to xda there, and kept on reading xda from the translator. Only, there was no google in sight, just plain old xda. Weird.
And i feel so dumb right now
And i feel so dumb about posting this thread, but i have to. The very first thing i thought about after the incident was "I have to start a thread about this"
Anyone else had an "I'm an idiot" moment lately?
nope...but congratulations!

Hi. My name's Stuart, and I'm an idiot.
Took my bike for an MOT this morning (Thunderace, if you're interested). As the tester rode it onto the apparatus past me I noticed the rear shock squeaked a bit - hadn't noticed it before with a helmet on, windblast and the bulk of the bike blocking the noise from the drivers seat. All through the test, I was as nervous as an expectant father, was the examiner going to find something wrong that I hadn't forseen? Was there going to be some new strange test that the bike failed? Eventually, the tester came over to me and said it had passed.
Why did I then find myself saying "So the squeak from the shock wasn't a problem?"?!?!
He hadn't heard it but me asking prompted him to spend 5 minutes more examining it to find out if it was a problem or not!
That's my "I'm an idiot" moment for the day. I'm sure I'll be back tomorrow with another....
For some weird reason Chernobyl district is attracting me like a magnet. It even came to my dreams several times!
I was growing up in Ukraine, about 65 miles away from the Chernobyl. My mom once told me that teachers forced them to go wash radioactive trains from Chernobyl, if they refused - their exam scores would be Fails. I was reading something last night, and found some interesting info, which would be very educative for all of you:
http://www.angelfire.com/extreme4/kiddofspeed/chapter1.html
I believe that she have done great job! She rode her bike all over that place, and it was done years before the "gates of Chernobyl" were finally open!
Anyone else have very weird attractions?

Most of my ex girlfriends to be honest!
I think that is a common attraction.
I really want to go to Pripyat. My life wont be complete without going there.
BTW, I was born in Poland, but I'm stuck in the States so Pripyat is pretty far.
(For anyone thinking what Pripyat is, it's the city where all the workers of Chernobyl worked, and the nearest city to Chernobyl, google it)
Another thing I want to see which is closer from home is the Freedom Tunnel. It's a train tunnel in NYC which was closed in the 80s and was home to bums and graffiti artists.
It is a remarkable story. Not so much that there was a nuclear accident, although that is remarkable in itself, but the stories of the people involved in the aftermath and the survivors who lived through a nightmare.
Pripyat would be a unique place to visit

I've got a mate that went to Auschwitz and it was seriously about 2 years before he stopped talking about it. EVERY time I saw him the conversation would end up there.
It obviously had a MASSIVE impact on him.

Something about that place just makes me wanna see it. Ive never been out of the southeastern u.s. though.
i really really really like apple pie
i love whats wholesome and good , because i know what that means , i wouldnt call it weird tho , but very rare indeed
Aaaa, yes, Auschwitz, I should go there, being that I am from Poland, and the camp was IN Poland. lol. Now it's made into a museum, so its not THAT bad...unless you mean your mate was there during WWII.

Lol, oversized watches look ridiculous. Better than i had as a kid though:
They will never top the awesomeness that was the original casio calculator watch...
Id' be a little concerned about being beaten up for being such a massive geek if someone noticed me checking emails on my watch

I know what you mean. It wouldn't last a minute around here without some chav chewing your arm off to get it. Nobody has ever made a play for my Tag though, which i used to worry about. Now i'd use it as excuse to get the newer model that's in the picture i posted before. (Or an Omega...but the one i like is ~£3000)

I used to wreck and lose these things so much that I stopped wearing watches by the time I was in 7th grade. The worst were the ones that were labeled "Water resistant up to 10 meters!" I would wear it in the pool the first chance I got. Ruined.

Yeah, their marketing department were lying bastards! I lost many a good Casio like this.
The best one i had was back ~1984. It has a side scrolling space invaders style game on it. I used to trade people in class one go for a pack of crisps at lunchtime.
Believe it or not, but it's true. I saw this in my dream yesterday : i saw their mascot singing all cyanogenmod ringtones (btw all are the name of the stars !) ... Cyan color is the poison for human. This is not human technologies it's from aliens and they wants to kill us slowly (brainwashing, loosing our time, virtual life, ...) you must leave android and any other technology be aware for what are you doing. good luck to everyone. bye

This reminds me of a weird dream I had once. I dreamt that I had gotten transported back in time to the Victorian era. I was panicking and trying to get someone to help me get back to my time, but nobody believed my story. They all thought I was a lunatic and they were about to throw me into the asylum, and the only way I was able to convince them I wasn't just some nut was by showing them my smartphone. I was like, "If I wasn't from the future then why would I have THIS?!" I brandished the phone at them and they accused me of being an alien, and then I woke up.

So, I'm sitting here having a coffee, grooving a little because this DJ always spins up the best grooves, and I decide - sure, goto twitter one time. I never do, and I was just reminded why. I've had 3 accounts there since they started - logged in maybe 3 or 4 times, nothing there at all for me.
But, you know - I go there, curiosity, whatever. News...
First thing I see - M&M's, yaaaay, a piece of candy, represented in advertising by some cartoons, seeks to become more inclusive and represent society better.
wut?
Are they fuk'n serious? Are people serious? Some folks making a candy feel bad because their fictional candy characters don't represent everybody? Wut? THey don't feel anything - somebody cried a little that one time and a company decided to try to make them feel better? SO they would keep buying candy?
Are they fuk'n serious? People (lol, people) are actually talking about this. They feel a way - have a thing to say?
Are they fuk'n serious?
Then, I see that Meat Loaf died.
Oof. That guy - that debut album - me trying to croon with him in the rumpus room on full blast....I was 10 when that album came out, bought it a year or 2 later, my 2nd album - played it 'till my fingers bled, was the summer of '69...wait
see what I did there? Art has meaning. The word, language, commonality - that sh*t has meaning. Meat loaf taught me stuff my parents couldn't even spell, sang to me, with me, for me, about me. Put a little sense where there was none, made my ****ty life a little better by putting heartache in a place it couldn't do (more) damage. He didn't write those songs, Jim Steinman did. Might as well have been John and Paul, Elton and Bernie...
Here's to Meat Loaf one time, and Ellen and JIm, for putting it down, making the sun shine brighter.
