I remember T-mobile enabled RCS for Samsung’s text app, but excluded unlocked devices. I was able to find some dial tone command work-arounds to force it to enable, but eventually some Samsung update took away the ability. But then a few months after that I installed Messages, so now I have it everywhere. Very handy when I’m inside a building and need to text. Doesn’t change the fact that I have like 3 regular contacts who actually use Android

Just seeing 2038 is a red flag in my head

And it still isn’t worth shit

xia, to android in RCS has been around for 15 years, but it feels like 15 minutes

True, but… at least for me… it’s probably because i disabled it the instant i started getting “enhanced” salesy texts from corporations.

avatar, to android in ChatGPT with Voice made me forget I was talking to an AI

Can anyone use this? Right now?

averyminya,

It’s hidden in a subtab in the article, but it says you can get it with the free tier of chatGPT app for Android or iOS by tapping the headphone icon to the right of the text box.

So, apparently you can?

Acamon,

Seems to be! Rolled out to the free tier, according to the article. But you need to install the app.

Blaze, to android in Zenfone 11 Ultra certified: Goodbye to a compact flagship?

Sad to hear, seems like Sony Xperia is the only remaining option

13617, to android in Zenfone 11 Ultra certified: Goodbye to a compact flagship?

Did they ever bootloader unlock the Zenphone 10?

kib48, to android in The Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 might drop little CPU cores altogether

is this a step backwards?

blindsight, to android in Zenfone 11 Ultra certified: Goodbye to a compact flagship?

It’s not a flagship, but I’m really liking my Sony Xperia 10V. It’s lightweight, narrow, has amazing battery life (I’m at 80% after a full day of light use, 1h37m SoT), has lots of RAM, microSD, and 3.5mm. Its processor is weak, apparently, but I haven’t noticed; I don’t do heavy gaming on mobile and it’s snappy enough for web browsing and has enough RAM to keep lots of apps running.

So, there are good compact phone options. Hopefully other people keep buying them to keep them profitable for companies to support!

somegadgetguy, to android in The Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 might drop little CPU cores altogether

I worry mediatek might have made the jump one gen too early.

limerod, to android in The Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 might drop little CPU cores altogether

As long as it doesn’t negatively impact thernals and battery life. It’s acceptable.

brothershamus, to technology in YouTube Premium says the price party is over for grandfathered accounts
@brothershamus@kbin.social avatar

Cardinal Scum: Lord Google! Our Premium service is only making 8.5 Billion net profit per year, a miserable increase of 25% from last year!

Lord Google: These peasant eyeballs have disappointed me. Force the plebians to ingest propaganda as in the olden times! And as for the so-called-Premium subs . . . we will crush their purchasing power!

Cardinal Scum: Yes Lord Google! Brilliant!

Lord Google: Muwahhahahahahah!!!

Cardinal Scum: (hesitantly) Heh heh . . hee heee heeh hehehehh yesssss . . yes

HurlingDurling,

Me: Firefox + uBlock origin go BRRRRRRRR…

PenguinTD,

the day this combo no longer works is the day I don’t visit youtube. Honestly if there are some alternative front end/extension that’s better please let me know. I visit youtube for times like game award announcement(so trailers and official release), search for review benchmark while I want to buy PC stuff, and the rest mostly just game educational stuff from Digital Foundry and channel like PBS Space Time. I am doing the upkeeping(so tagging channel as not interested or straight blocking them), but recent generated clips are flooding Youtube like crazy. I want to have a page/frontend that only my subscribed channels and whitelist keywords to show up.

jellyfish,

I mean the Invidious project is nice. So is NewPipe. I tend to primarily use YouTube through a patched android app with Revanced; and with SmartTube on an android TV set-top box. When uBlock Origin finally falls; I’ll almost certainly move to downloading videos automatically and putting them into Jellyfin, hopefully the options for automated YT downloads gets better by then. Right now the best option seems to be ytdl-sub.

thejevans,

This is my plan as well. I’ll miss some of the discovery aspect of youtube, but it’ll be nice to have a way to continue watching the channels I enjoy

PenguinTD,

I think the discovery aspec would come from these:

  • links from your frequently visited sites, community
  • recommendations when you ask in more niche group, the frequent there usually can point you to a better youtuber/reviewer.
  • or some lazy effort when you just go to the default and search with keywords(while in a container tab) and navigate through the useless stuff.

I complaint because now my youtube feed are filled with other pseudo-science and auto-generated stuff, youtube’s algorithm have failed me basically. Half are from my subs and another half are from people or program that are trying to exploit you with those “try this to improve …” shit and just paste some sounding scientist names.
