    Fuck Apple but honestly this app is like trying to stay warm with matches in Antarctica.

      Fuck Apple and I’d prefer matches in Antarctica to no matches in Antarctica.

        You might want to read Den Lille Pige med Svovlstikkerne (spoiler alert : it doesn’t work).

          1.) I can’t even read the title, 2.) I still want the matches. I’m not saying I’ll use the matches themselves, but who knows, maybe I find wood or whale blubber to burn or something. Just give me the matches, please.

            Surprise you can’t search without speaking the language but OK, easier https://www.gutenberg.org/files/32571/32571-h/32571-h.htm#Page_117 about 2 pages. Also I’m not crying. /s

              Disappointed by not surprised by the downvotes. English is the lingua franca but it doesn’t mean it’s the only language. Grow up.

              I admit it wasn’t at all what I expected. I thought it was going to be some account of an Arctic explorer dying or similar. It makes my point, though. If the little girl had perhaps thought to go find some dry kindling or a whale carcass, it might have been a very different story. That’s all I’m trying to say.

          I don’t want to read it either. Are you implying that ICEblock isn’t worth downloading? In your own words, why or why not?

            If you don’t want to bother read a centuries year old classic of literature on human condition I don’t think I want to bother clarifying.

            Forgot my silly opinion, read the 2 pages story.

      It’s about as useful as a canary in a coal mine.

        A famously useful tool for saving miners from suffocation?

          So if this app canary has just died, what does that imply…?

          Exactly. It doesn’t matter too much what the app doesn’t. The fact it’s removed is the useful part.
