So umm… Could you technically pirate these updates? Someone could just nab the installer files and share them publicly. I find it hard to imagine that Microsoft built countermeasures for OS update-piracy.

Burning physical bluray discs can take quite a lot of time.

There is a future where google buys it and adds a chat to it.

Are you trying to gather a lynch mob here? I think posts like these are quite bad taste. Most wont have a good understanding of the situation.

Does this really fit this community?

That is actually how the Xbox user interface started to look like after a while. It went from “what you probably want functions” to 80% ad, whitespace and “suggestions” with a Play the game somewhere in there.

Umm. It sounds more like that you are just trying out new things and genres and finding that it’s not always a hit with you. That’s healthy.

I think that it notified all of my contact list when i tried posting a story. Not doing that again. Removed it in shame.

Bip here. Bought 2018. Have been charging it literally only once a month.

It relieved me from the battery anxiety of my previous sony smartwatch that ran the full googles smartwatch OS. That thing lasted usually a day. Less if i did anything meaningful on it. It made me seriously think if it needed a watch that would do everything, but ended up doing nothing anyway because of the battery life.

I love the gestures themselves. I hate that they “try” to follow device orientation.

It’s a guesswork if the screen is rotated or if the media itself is just so. Also i’ve had multiple cases where the gesturebar is on the portrait bottom but the gestures are on the landscape.

Oneplus did it correct when they had their own gestures. The gestures were always on the same spot regardless of the device orientation. You always knew where they were. Also i think they worked in fullscreen apps without first swiping the gesture bar out.

edit: just wanted to add that i’m on android 12, i don’t know if they are less finicky now.

The back gesture is actually stopping me from using it. It registers both in-app back gesture and the operating system gesture at the same time. It skips the main feed with the two backs, goes all the way back to the communities screen and forgets where it was on the feed.

• Filtering posts with keywords

User can specify keywords that are used to filter and exclude the users own subscription timeline from posts that include the words in the post-topic.

For example: User adds the keyword “died” in the settings to a filter list. The topic “Great actor of movie X has died” will now not appear in the feeds. There also could be a more advanced version of this that allows to assign keywords to different communities.

• Hiding posts manually

In every post, the tools in the “three dot overflow”-menu should include an option for “Hide post”, which makes that post disappear from the feed.

• Filtering posts with keywords and hiding posts manually.

Certain topics cause unnecessary anxiety, on reddit they were easy to avoid with RES. Here the only way to remove a post from haunting you from your timeline is to block the poster, which is bit overkill.

The re-usability of a phone is almost nonexistent thanks to the battery, that is a fire hazard. You leave it plugged in as a surveillance camera? Your home burns.

If you can actually remove the battery and power it on without one. Just then is everything back on the table.

If you can’t? Recycle please.

While i adore the project. I tried it for a year and it got to the point that i had made a script to restart the process as the reliability of it actually working was non-existent. Off course it never worked when it could’ve saved some time. I usually ended up telegramming files.

This was on android & windows connection maybe 1-2 years ago. Maybe it’s gotten better. I haven’t had to use it as the Motorola Ready For -desktop companion is doing good.

I have several too. I still find usefulness in this as you can copy-paste text to the other device, like long passwords/emails. I would have killed to have something like this when i had to setup my parents smart-tv.

I had to remove a previous saved connection from the pc-side.

Just to be clear, because the articles often are not: You will not hear surround sound. You will hear stereo sound surrounding you.

This will be great for getting a feeling of a wider soundscape. I haven’t heard it but i’d guess it also messes up the soundstage of the music actually has or it sounds more like headphones. You technically could listen to real surround sounds with just three speakers but this only connects to stereo bluetooth sources.

“Sweet, loving sexual intercourse u/spez!”

Listening to those made me realize how much I’d like to have an “UNATCO HQ” -station.

How come you are bringing up the Ericsson part? There hasn’t been a phone carrying a Sony Ericsson brand in ten years?
