How the fuck this headset weighs over 600 grams? The Quest 2, which is pretty much a standalone Android phone weighs 500g WITH a battery in the headset. It is already a very heavy headset to be used without a strap that balances the load

And also because Google doesn’t sell data.

Modes & Routines is literally Bixby Routines renamed to remove the Bixby branding (and to avoid confusion with people thinking it’s part of the voice assistant). Absolutely nothing was removed from this change other than the Bixby name and it’s still the same good and old Samsung developed app, Google has nothing to do with it.

Judging by the fact that you can set multiple if conditions (and it explicitly says “when all conditions below are met”) straight from the main view of the routine, it means you haven’t even tried creating a routine at all.

Found the gnome developer

Hold your horses, they only said “ad free”, “tracking free” is beyond the scope, making this essentially a double dip.

why don’t we focus on getting more people to the very comfortable speed of 70Mbps before we give those that already have a good connection a better one.

Those things are not mutually exclusive and generally not even the same effort

That’s exactly what the YouTube execs are saying

Because it’s Brave and people like to jump on bandwagons. This is like the 6th time I’ve seen this article posted in lemmybin also.

And since we have the reddit-minded folk here, no, I do not support Brave and never will and I would much rather they disappear from the internet, but using ragebait to complain about the browser installing the necessary files to have one of their advertised services working, like pretty much every other software does, is not the way to move forward.

Pretty much everything twitter/X related was and is going to be nothing but petty drama on some site with overreacting toxic people.

RCS is only interoperable with apps and carriers that adopt the Jibe protocol, so not much has changed.

The only way something replaces WhatsApp is if WhatsApp stops existing.

Besides, RCS is not in any shape or form ready to the general public, considering all the blatant inconsistencies and instabilities, let alone replace one of the most used, tried and tested messaging platforms out there.

That pretty much only affected the small percentage of American users that used Signal for the SMS integration. For everyone else it literally made no difference whatsoever. Besides, it is completely in line with their vision to not include SMS since it is an insecure protocol.

C and B are definitely happening in the next months, A will start by the end of next year, as support for Bard dwindles and Google moves on to the next AI assistant that has half the features and polish of the previous one.

Absolutely nothing.

Still unable to call 911

This one really got a laugh out of me

These people also don’t live in the real world. “Hey buddy, I know all your friends are using this chat service, but just stop using it and move to this barebones, extensively complex to setup service and everyone will follow suit, trust me”

But isn’t that the whole point of a messaging service? Connect to something else that’s not local and have your messages exchanged?

Do not recommend Tiny10/11. They are modified Windows ISOs and we have no way of knowing what actually was modified and if there’s anything malicious under the hood.

Besides it also completely breaks a bunch of actually useful features.
