  • Let them watch. Bwahahaha

  • Yea they are making it a background process you can’t turn off now and replacing google assistant with it.

  • So now you are changing your argument? That was not your original claim.

  • Quick is trolling

  • Google said they are going to make it so you can turn off directly interacting with Gemini but it will always be running in the background, spying on you.

  • So better to have NO passwords or biometrics at all then? You argument doesn’t make sense.

  • NASA goes on strike: fuck it, we’ll go to space-X. SpaceX goes on strike: that’s illegal! Wharrgarbl!

  • Baking apps: pin the websites Grindr: use waydroid or switch to sniffies Cash App: oof, I don’t know if waydroid will be enough for this one.

  • Never used it myself, but I liked reading about all the creative malware it used to get.

  • I dont use my phone to pay, I use my watch and have for years. Everywhere. And it works fine the few times I’ve left my phone behind.

  • Yea but with cash you have to carry a fat wallet around and are limited to a finite amount of your money. I get that it has its advantages, but it has disadvantages too.

  • While I appreciate that, I really want the freedom to use it that way I want to, not the way others are happy with. It’s open, which makes that theoretically possible, but I’m no Linux dev. I can’t create missing features. So I need to work with what people smarter than me came up with.

  • How is a disposable token locked behind passwords and/or biometrics, remotely erasable, unique between each vendor a transaction takes place in inferior to…..a string of unchanging digits in a physical card?

    You didn’t “call out misinformation.” You laughed at a differing opinion. That’s not an argument. That’s a noise.

    Seriously, the Linux community has tons of helpful, super smart people, but mixed in with them are these obnoxious snobs like you that just embarrass the rest of us.

  • Exactly. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto took off because car manufacturers have always sucked with tech and this gave them a super cheap way to make a quantum leap forward.

  • Many cars built in features are so terrible they border on useless. Some doesn’t even have things like GPS at all. My EV uses CarPlay for that and has no navigation built in at all, even though it has a GPS radio it uses for onstar services.

  • Yes, you can even run android apps on Linux mobile using waydroid or something similar. So even if you need your stopgap android apps while waiting for Linux equivalents, waydroid has your back.

    As for me, I plan on using PWAs as much as possible.

  • God i wish I was smart enough to contribute to these things

  • Fairphone, FLX1, and jolla phones are supposed to be acceptable. They aren’t flagships but they are fine.
