What?!? I’ve been wanting a fairphone forever and couldn’t find a place to send it stateside. This is great.

I have a withings and I really like it. Their privacy policy made me feel better about allowing my info on the cloud. You can run it offline (it sends weight via Bluetooth to the app but won’t show 7-day trend an scale screen without wifi). I don’t mind that, so I leave it disconnected. I don’t use a home assistant though so I can’t speak to that part.
I have the withings watch also, so I use the app as my catch all health tracker which works well. it’s nice to have everything together. Can’t speak to any others but I’d recommend withings.
OH MY GOD PLEASE STOP CONSOLIDATING GAMING STUDIOS. I don’t want all my games to come from Sony and Microsoft.
Not a lawyer, but it seems like changing the ball throwing mechanic is an admission that they are taking ideas from Nintendo. Maybe they are trying to minimize the damage but still seems like they are weakening their position.
Yep, and I’m still never buying a Playstation. Not worth chasing exclusives when there are plenty of good games on PC.
Dude, know your audience. Lemmy is not the place for this SEO stuff. This belongs on LinkedIn or something.
Already working on it. Just need to find someplace I can get a job that will let me work outside the US.
Yes it is! It’s a ridiculously cute game. I took my time with it and just enjoyed knocking pots off shelves and catching birds. If you’re a gamer and cat lover it’s a good buy.
The timeline is absolutely ridiculous considering the scale at which Google play operates. However I otherwise don’t feel a bit sorry for them. It’s probably a foreign experience to most of the Google team to have a competitive challenge and if they are up to it they’ll be fine. If not, I guess that’s the free market at work…
(Also, is it Epics entire business model to just sue their way into relevance? I’m happy to see the big tech firms squeal but seriously it’s like Epic wants their entire brand to be about suing competitors.)
Tmobile does it as a service but it’s a paid one and inconsistent in accuracy. I had it for free as part of a plan for a while and told them no thanks to an additional charge. Not sure it’s worth paying $5/month.
This is right on the line of creepy surveillance and interesting public art project. I kind of like the idea but not a fan of the fact that it’s recording in stealth. I wish it were more transparent about it. Most people wouldn’t care anyway and it removes some of the discomfort of listening in on a bunch of strangers.
Yep, happened to Arcane Austin. Redfall was a disaster because Bethesda couldn’t wrap their heads around the fact that Arcane made (awesome) single player games and not MMOs. Hopefully history won’t repeat itself.
It’s hard to believe that Annapurna leadership (and Ellison specifically) are surprised by this. It reads like Ellison is known for backing out of deals or simply not honoring them. Why should the staff believe she would honor a spinoff deal?
Hope the team is able to get something off the ground.
It’s of course troubling that AI images will go unidentified through this service (I am also not at all confident that Google can do this well/consistently).
However I’m also worried about the opposite side of this problem- real images being mislabeled as AI. I can see a lot of bad actors using that to discredit legitimate news sources or stories that don’t fit their narrative.
I don’t understand the folding phone thing. It feels like tech now is all about creating ridiculous features and tech companies trying to convince us that we want them while ignoring things that would actually be worthwhile like repairable phones, headphones jacks and minimal bloatware.
Yeah I think the masses are going to be a tough sell on Linux until computer manufacturers start offering Linux builds with a pre-installed instance.
I’m sure there are places that do it but there’s probably money to be made in just setting up Linux on machines for people.
I think context makes a difference on whether a call is welcome or not, appropriate or not.
If the email asks me to write out a bunch of info I know off the top of my head, just call me. Don’t make me write out something that I can just tell you much faster.
If you’re asking something that kicks off a conversation going back and forth like if you need help walking through something, sending emails back and forth is annoying and dumb. Knocking it out in one call is faster and easier than exchanging 15 emails.
On the other hand, if you don’t need an answer right away, if you need documents or images or if you need to communicate about something that requires a record of the communication, email is better.
I have been annoyed equally by getting calls and emails when people use them for things when they aren’t ideal.
Got it right after launch. It is fantastic. Puzzles are fun, characters and plot are entertaining, and it’s just frickin adorable. It’s really short- I’m hoping because the dev team is releasing additional cases later, but right now you just solve one case. I finished it in an evening taking it slowly. I don’t regret paying full price, but I definitely want more. Would recommend for sure.
It depends. Many vegans see any product that “exploits” animals as nonvegan. That includes things like down feathers, wool and honey.
I love these games. I replay them both every few years and they are still fun. I’m still pissed about what happened to Arcane Studios and what could have been had the big corpos not done their usual bs.
