Seems like we are going to have to wait for Google to actually release the dang things and then for the EU to step in and require it… Lord knows the US won’t do anything

EddieTee77,

It’s one of the best for sure!! Curds and burgers are all I need!

EddieTee77,

What’s sad to me is seeing that they are banned in other countries and these companies have already adjusted their recipes for those countries. They chose to keep the more dangerous chemicals in the US because they weren’t forced to change. The US seems to not care about it’s citizens

Samsung joins Google in RCS shaming Apple (www.theverge.com)

Samsung has released a new video in support of Google’s #GetTheMessage campaign which calls for Apple to adopt RCS or “Rich Communication Services,” the cross-platform protocol pitched as a successor to SMS that adopts many of the features found in modern messaging apps… like Apple’s own iMessage.

EddieTee77,

The audacity of parents trying to buy something less expensive in these crazy inflated times

EddieTee77,

And insurance, and healthcare, and construction, etc. They are involved in so many different industries it’s almost hard to believe.

EddieTee77,

It’s incredible how much they are involved in

EddieTee77,

Same. I held onto mine until it did go lol

EddieTee77,

Performance is much better than before. I’m having fun with the new additions and transferring some new op mons to destroy the opponents.

At one point, I hit a Pokemon with a super effective move from my Arceus and the cutscene went to “wow you know about type matchups” lol I’m like, I just brought out literally God and you are surprised by my type matchups lol

EddieTee77,

Is the A54’s battery that good? I’ve heard nothing but positive things about the 23 Ultra battery and I’d assume you get more than twice the performance/features right?

EddieTee77,

That seems worth the trade off in my opinion. All I want is a longer lasting battery so maybe that’ll be worth grabbing if I need a new device.

EddieTee77,

I think the argument is that the monopoly is present because it’s basically pointless outside of China to launch a phone without play services. So while you can release a phone based on AOSP, it’s not going to be successful financially without the Google apps and tweaks from Play Services

EddieTee77,

And yet my Pixel 7 Pro is stuck on the August patch. Glad I got this for the quick updates.

EddieTee77,

No they are allowing you to view them in YouTube and the Google TV library section of the app

Google calendar won't open links in Firefox iOS (lemmy.sdf.org)

It’s the only browser I have installed besides Safari, and my default browser but instead of just opening the link with my default browser, it advertises these other browsers to me and makes me click ‘Default browser app’ by default. wtf I’ll be turning that off, should have never been a feature.

EddieTee77,

It makes the choices look strange though. You see the Google suggestions and the Apple suggestions even though those aren’t the default. This is that walled garden in action on both Apple and Google’s side.

EddieTee77,

I am! I think this is intentional on both Apple and Google to force you to use their apps

EddieTee77,

(Seriously sorry for dumb question) What does that mean for us?

EddieTee77,

This really helps me understand the situation better. I appreciate the time and thought put into this response. It’s times like these I am thankful I didn’t overspend. I listened to my parents and bought a house that wasn’t flashy but was suitable for my situation. Most people I know did not do that, and I constantly wonder how they are making ends meet. Some of them make less than I do.

EddieTee77,

Good. I hope it comes out soon. I’m patiently waiting for it!

EddieTee77,

This is exactly my use case. Get free rewards but treat it like a debit card. Don’t spend more than you couldn’t pay back by the end of the month and you get free perks like cash back or airline points for travel.

[Rant] Cloud service is not a reason to have phones with only 128 GB

I am in the process of looking between repairing my phone or switching to a new one. And the no brainer evolution to the OnePlus 7 Pro I have is a Pixel phone. Pixel Phones are definitely not perfect, I know that the battery would fall faster than other phones but hey, that’s ok, google chip in it, possibility to go...

EddieTee77,

Can I ask what phone you are using and what SD card you have? Did you get a fast writing SD card?

I'm convinced Google uses its reCAPTCHA to promote Chrome

I use Firefox and Firefox Mobile on the desktop and Android respectively, Chromium with Bromite patches on Android, and infrequently Brave on the desktop to get to sites that only work properly with Chromium (more and more often - another whole separate can of worms too, this…) And I always pay attention to disable google.com...

EddieTee77,

Side note - Firefox for Android recently freezes and crashes when you use the Google search in the private view. Also seems intentional

EddieTee77,

I was hoping this would come out like a Nexus price-wise and was very disappointed when it came out.

I want to buy one, but I don’t think it’s worth the current price

EddieTee77,

But the point remains that doing nothing would have brought more value so I agree that he isn’t trying to recoup lost money here

EddieTee77,

Good! They should be accountable for their actions.

EddieTee77,

Nope. Every browser is basically Safari with a different coat of paint on it. It’s very anti competitive and monopolistic if you ask me

EddieTee77,

Has anyone else had trouble with Google search on Firefox for Android recently? It freezes after it provides results so I can’t click links. Weirdly, I don’t have this issue with Chrome, Edge, or Samsung Internet.

EddieTee77,

Apple is very much becoming more and more into gathering data for it’s own ad business. They are pushing the privacy thing now and forcing out most ad competition so they can come in and dominate on their platforms

EddieTee77,

Exactly my thoughts! I’m waiting for confirmation on that before I decide to buy my next tracker

EddieTee77,

I would hope Samsung would switch to the Android standard or at least support it and their Samsung equivalent

10 years ago, Google launched the 2nd-gen Nexus 7, and no tablet has captured its magic since (www.androidpolice.com)

Ten years ago today, Google released the 2nd-generation Nexus 7, just days after a surprise announcement. Back then, Android tablets still felt fresh and exciting. It seemed like anything was possible, and things could only improve from there. Well, we know what happened next. But the depressing state of the tablet market to...

EddieTee77,

Same! Never had one but definitely wanted one. I also wanted that Nexus 4 with the sparkle back to compliment it but I ended up with the Note 2 for that massive screen.

Back then people made jokes that I carried an iPad as a phone lol how times have changed

EddieTee77,

Me too! With those specs it’d be better than my current laptop, but it’s also probably twice as an expensive as my laptop

EddieTee77,

I wonder what that’s likely to be. Usually the top Android features are finalized by now. Unless they’re are some Pixel exclusive features we don’t know about

EddieTee77,

Why has no one tried to recreate that sparkly back?

EddieTee77,

If only they had all of 2020 and 2021 to fix the roads and not cause loads of traffic

EddieTee77,

To quote my insurance company when I asked why my rates went up, “well, everything is costs more. Other places are charging more too.”

This seems like a similar situation.

EddieTee77,

I’m still salty from when this happened to Google photos

EddieTee77,

That’s terrifying. Not even because the source is a Chinese company, it’s that it’s a social media company and not a trustworthy source

EddieTee77,

Yeah that’s definitely misleading click bait there

EddieTee77,

They are also raising it for student plans. I got an email saying my student rate is going to $7.99 starting in September
