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
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 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.
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
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?
New regulations will target six major tech companies to improve consumer experience and data privacy. These include Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, ByteDance, Meta, and Microsoft....
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
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.
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.
Older millennials, adults aged 35 to 44, had debt-to-disposable income ratios around 250 per cent in 2019, while Freestone noted that metric was roughly 150 per cent for the same age group in 1999....
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.
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.
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.

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
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.

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
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
Seeing screenshots of ICS makes me feel pretty nostalgic about my old Galaxy Nexus. I don’t remember having any complaints about it. Anyone else feel the same way?
Oof I think this service is only worth it if you have a family plan and everyone helping. That is how I personally make it reasonable in terms of pricing.
Would anyone be able to help me out? My Pixel 7 Pro broke. Unfortunately, I live in the USA and bought this on a contract lease for 3 years. I’m wanting something similar to it, and the used phone market has plenty of options....
