No matter on which country the iot device it’s made, giving internet access to them in military bases is madness. IOT must be on a separate VLAN without any internet access. No exceptions, they’re usually running buggy firmware based on ancient Linux versions and no updates are ever released or installed. They’re exploitable time bombs
Welcome to 2019
As a lean startup, they definitely didn’t have the resources to implement dark mode in an app with a single view
Wanted to see how bad were the recommendations, it can’t play anything if it’s not in focus with the screen on. For a music app that plays 30 seconds of ads before any listening?? (Ironically enough, even the ads stop playing if focus is lost or screen is off)
Now I remember why years ago i uninstalled that system app via adb on my pixel
The best option would be a checkbox to exclude the sharing of VAC games
They’re actively doing the opposite by removing support in chrome
The Android AOSP 11 operating system powers the device, and it is capable of over-the-air (OTA) updates to ensure the media hub remains up to date.
Capable = it will never get any OS update
Can they say “remain” up to date, when they ship a device with an operating system released 4 years ago?
Because usually those are masquerading as legitimate apps.
Real example: Google allows “Muhammad mahmood ali” from Pakistan to run fake ads pretending to be a more famous corporation (flagged, google replied that this individual isn’t breaking the TOS somehow, flagged again, the bot replied that yes, that phishing page doesn’t break AdWords TOS - probably the scammers are serving different content according to the IP address)
When someone searches for “dji app”, they get an ad that looks legitimate and goes to a fake landing page where they say to download and install this apk, showing a fake “100% safe and trusted” logo.
So, they can’t say the list of the infected apps, because the real apps aren’t affected. Someone could have been tricked by a fake ad to install an infected version of “bank of America” but the real app is clean
Making Disney licensed toys is a legal nightmare even for Hasbro
Raises the bar? Don’t the realme phones come with ridiculous fast charging like 1 kW?
(The number is an hyperbole)
The problem is that they trained the models using millions of pirated books in standard english.
AAE is mostly used when spoken: they also pirated also millions of tv series and youtube videos that can contain that, but as of now, it was mostly for training voice recognition models
(proof that they pirated television content and youtube videos to train whisper: https://community.openai.com/t/subtitles-created-by-amara-org-qtss-etc/462561 - https://gist.github.com/riotbib/3b3c5f817b55b68801d14b8bdb02df09)
The free tier is faster than paid tiers of lower quality VPNs.
I assume that the paid tier would be excellent
This said, I find it too expensive for my uses
How this is a desiderable feature? I always use the volume buttons for reject calls, shoot photos (although on my latest MIUI phone the volume button didn’t shoot a photo but set the auto timer), quickly adjust volume during a call or media playback.
Same for the power button, even if I set double tap to wake and double tap (on empty part of launcher) to standby, the power button is faster.
I’d even want more buttons. I want an extra programmable button(s) like the iphone and I also want a mute slider that can be programmed as rotation lock
It’s perfect for criminal use! Unbreakable encryption between two parties! 100% safe, believe me.
IMHO not a coincidence that the app constantly prompts to save unencrypted backups to Google drive for “safety”
But by default the comms aren’t end-to-end encrypted. Isn’t desiderable that criminals use telegram rather than signal?
Looks amazing, I hate when I have to reinstall stuff on a new phone (which is not often, I’m still on pixel 5 and plan to stay long with that because the newer ones are too big)
Translation: we really need more money to pay a bonus of some hundreds of millions to the CEO
The screenshot shows how useless and unreliable is the feature. How a Google product can state that the Google pixel 9 comes with a version of Android older than 14??
I accidentally activated it and It really sucked.
First, when you invoke it, it’s not listening but you have to press an additional button on the screen.
Second, it’s way slower than Google assistant and it fails doing the most basic tasks
My use case: I invoke the voice assistant by double tapping on the back of my pixel, then speak without watching the screen. I exclusively use two voice commands:
So when I invoked it, need to unlock the screen, press the microphone button, say the command, wait a couple dozens of seconds , it couldn’t even set a fucking timer.
In the time of that I could have saved time by just doing it manually, if anyway I am forced to interact with the screen
The main advantage of using custom silicon is that you can decide the naming and so you deceive users that the minor 0.1 update is a full generation advance
Kinda like I saw someone saying “apple skipped A17 for the iPhone 16 and gave the faster A18” - they’re in charge of the naming and they can easily decide that A18 = A17
