WashedOver

I saw a crazy Instagram video where the citizens are upset they are only trying to clean up the river for the Olympics not for the people that live there. They were trying to start a viral campaign to have everyone Sh8t in the river after the clean up is done.

I think the most we will hear is how it’s all Trudeau’s fault and the government is ruining their lives…

It’s a shame as their hybrid smart watch has been my go to for a few years now. Kind of reminds me of my old Pebble with the always on LCD screen. My gf also uses one too. The several days of battery life was another good feature

Correction Outline icon pack is what I’ve been using. The Studio icon pack is pretty good. Thanks!

Same here. There are quirks by I think I’m really use to them now. I tried Nova, Lawnchair and some others over the years but I think my long term Smart Launcher still fits me like a glove.

I will. I’ve been using the neon colored Azure icon pack for many years now. I could probably go for an update.

That really sucks. It would be brutal to get that sorted. I’ve been lucky. I do recall once there was a botched update that reset all my custom settings on all of my devices. I was really choked but I had a old backup that restored it halfway. Reminds me to do another one now.

My huawei devices keeps reseting my launcher to theirs which is s really annoying but I think that is a Huawei thing.

I use Smart Launcher. I’m surprised there aren’t more users of it.

I’ve been using it on all my phones and tablets for years now. Doesn’t matter what type of Android phone I use, they mostly end up being the same feel with Smart Launcher

Just like the good old days when athletes would smoke during breaks in the game. They sure were great times!

I feel like an outsider on these debates. I totally agree we should be able to own forever.

In my case I find there is so much new TV and movies I rarely go back to re-watch shows or movies so owning them isn’t on my radar. It’s a challenge just to watch a whole series I find.

I’m wondering how often do people beyond kids re-watch movies and TV shows? Kids seem to be able to rewatch the same movies several times a day…

That’s what they want us to think. /s

Still rocking my note 10 plus which had a SD card slot, and my LG V60 which still has both. The V60 has some of the best audio recording for video which I suspect is due to the DAC built in with the mic array.

Yes correct. This is what was suggested for NHL94.

I never really made it into the the Playstation or Xbox controllers. I wasn’t a big gamer beyond the NHL series in my teen years as I was playing a lot of hockey then I was married at the start of my 20s and things changed quick.

I’m guess I’m the odd man out with this

What a shame the inaction of one generation is going to mean eventually the younger generations becoming Cannon fodder again due to this burying the head in the sand and giving Putin just what he needs to keep going beyond Ukraine.

The older generation aren’t fans of the younger generations as it is so this should show them /s

I use to hate Microsoft so much for this with their early hardware I used to buy.

They would abandoned the devices by not providing the drivers needed for newer versions of Windows leaving the device a brick unless you want to still run 98 or XP.

I have a few of these devices in my place as a part of my home automation. It’s been struggling the last year with not confusing the basics and not mixing up the beginning of a news podcast as my voice commands. It seems like the newest display I own has the most issues.

I generally just use it to control and schedule lights and devices with smart plugs. The odd time I try to set timers or reminders but I’ve never really been a big voice command person. I too struggle on the best way to get it to play my YouTube music likes list. I just cast from my phone instead.

One thing it mostly gets right is stopping whatever is playing.

With my Soundbar no longer being new enough to work with Google Assistant I’m not looking forward to when the rest of my smart lights, switches, and plugs join it as we go forward.

I recall some of these things being advertised as great news features for their marketing drives.

Funny they didn’t mention the 1000 people they laid off across the various Assistant divisions being a part of the reason for the changes : https://www.theverge.com/2024/1/11/24034124/google-layoffs-engineering-assistant-hardware

The supporters don’t care about law and haven’t in a long time. They ignore this about him:

The more than 25 women who have accused Trump of sexual assault or misconduct (which he has denied), and the countless more who have endured public vitriol and threats to their life after being targeted by him, have all been punished either for challenging him or for denying him what he fundamentally believed was his due.

Laws are the least of their worries. Getting everyone to group think like them is more critical then they can get rid of everyone not like them.
