The odd bit here is that Pixel phones were not necessarily considered flagship phones. And accordingly we're priced not as flagship phones but if rumors are correct they are trying to get a flagship phone price for non flagship phone.

Next up, one of the most important updates for this new release from Google would be its dedicated chipset, with Pixel 9 to get the Tensor G4 SoC. However, early leaks of the Tensor G4 regarded that its benchmark test only delivered slight improvements compared to the old Tensor G3 from the Pixel 8 series, but was said to feature a new ARMv9-A core.

Where's the punch?

One of the many reasons I dropped Prime in January when my annual subscription ran out. I now avoid amazon where possible, or for certain things I'll group them up until I have enough items to get free shipping and order that way.

No prime day garbage No more "oh, let me order this thing I don't really need that will get here in a few hours"

all I see is ear masks

I both use, and bought this keyboard right after it was announced. I'd say it is not as good as gboard yet. I miss GIFs access and flip back and forth as required. I've had zero crashes on my Pixel 8P

It is my primary keyboard, and hopefully still learning, but word suggestion isn't as good (yet). FUTO voice integrated in which I was already using can be quite good. I'm using the slower version which is a little less convenient but tends to work better.

I'm talking about as a response to him being murdered vs. not. Didn't think i needed to explain the context of my comment.

I disagree with this completely. I believe if he had been killed his supporters would massively ramp up the division that exists now

Editing for the literal context from my original comment.

Would love for you to expand "already doing that" in relation to what I was suggesting. I do not see political opponents being physically attacked, I do not see/hear of any armed mobs actively physically trying to 'take their country back'.

I think that because of 1) trump is still alive and 2) this cook kid doesn't seem to fit the narrative of their enemy has kept things 'civil'.

I disagree with this completely. I believe if he had been killed his supporters would massively ramp up the division that exists now, which would be bad. Revenge, and Retribution are terms used by trump and his followers. I think under that reality it would have triggered some awful things.

Not sure about "only" but they're certainly few and far between. And unlike this idiot who's , I guess , a front runner for his VP. This type of language is how we got here.

This tweet / statement popped up on the news thus morning while I was waiting to see the weather forecast.

Ya, dig the crazy hole deeper and everyone falls in.

Or... And hear me out... Let's not encourage more crazy. There is already enough out there.

I was thinking the same thing

Well that's why you read the article :). I was just trying to showcase that

I'm guessing (without reading) there was a lot of luck there, like no rough seas. We all float better in salt water but 37 hours floating/treading water is impressive regardless of the conditions.

That has been on my radar for a while. I haven't checked it out recently. I'm sure YNAB4 will die sometime in the future, but I'm going to milk it out to the end :). There's already a hack for android (for dropbox syncing) and hoops to jump through to get it working in MacOs. It's just a matter of time before the house of cards falls apart.

There are a few pieces of software I use (regularly) that would continue to get money from me if they followed the old model of paying for major versions. (pay for v1, get v 1.1-1.9) with v2 being the next "big" update that you'd have to pay an upgrade fee (smaller than a new purchase) to continue on the train.

But they switched to subscription model, and lost me as an "active" customer.

YNAB is the big one I use at least weekly, sometimes daily. I am on YNAB4 until it will no longer function because I'm not paying them a monthly fee to use that product. I would have GLADLY paid for major updates/changes even if it equaled the subscription in the end. But each of those purchases would be a decision I made on whether the change had enough value for me.

Subscriptions allow them to not strive for large enough improvements to warrant a version update / upgrade fee. They just run along with little or no useful changes (IMHO).

Well I'm slightly younger than him!

This entire album is absolutely amazing. And it cracks me up "Band from fortnite" is the description haha. This song was out before anyone that wrote the code for Fortnite was alive (ok, now I feel old)

There's a "spinning" draw bridge that goes onto Gwynn's Island in Virginia that they have to do this to. Not sure how new of a phenomenon that is but it's been at least a few years now.

Not the same traffic backup as NYC, but crazy still.
