Garmin Instinct 2 Solar gives me 31 days on a full charge if it doesn't get any sunlight. It is smart enough to vibrate me awake without waking my partner and receive notifications, no matter what Android/iOS phone I use.

What were your main gripes with the Pixel watch?

raptore39 ,
  • Can read messages. On Android can reply with canned responses set up in the Connect app
  • GPS tracking during workouts without having to have phone within range, has heart rate, sleep tracking and more
  • Instinct can control media (play/pause/skip) when phone is in range, though the Forerunner music can store music to play via Bluetooth headphones
  • No LTE/eSIM support on any of them that I know of
  • Best feature for me by far is the time is always visible and in fact is even more visible in direct sunlight

Download songs and playlists from your Spotify, Deezer or Amazon Music accounts for phone-free listening.

So it seems it is specifically those services

I've never heard of that before.
It looks awesome and I'm going to look into it!

Ironic that traditionally Nitro makes things happen faster, probably in this case as well

The joke in my brain was that Nitro is fast tracking the enshittification of discord

VRAM?

Can we all agree that whatever version of predictive text we have nowadays is crap, and has been for a long time?

I'm sick of random capitalisations mid sentence. I'm sick of common words being replaced by less common ones or even downright nonsense. I'm sick of it taking three attempts to successfully get the word I want. I swear it's been like this for five years or more. Can we have a better version yet, or at least the old one back?

I sideloaded HeliBoard on Android via F-Droid and the predictive text is coming along nicely the more I type.

Let me know what you think about it. I also loaded the swipe gesture pack and it is super responsive

Apple pulls WhatsApp, Threads and Signal from app store in China (www.washingtonpost.com)

Apple has complied with the Chinese government's request to remove several popular communication apps from its app store, including WhatsApp, Threads, Signal, and Telegram, due to national security concerns. This action was taken following a directive from the Cyberspace Administration of China. These apps have been crucial for...

The ability to sideload apps looking real important right about now

No, only EU

Recently bought a Brother laser printer. We use Linux, macOS, Windows 11, Android and iOS in the house and it just works.

raptore39 ,

That's very Roku of them

raptore39 ,

Element.io apparently. I've never heard of it before

So I read that the RCS Apple wants to implement isn't exactly the RCS Google is using.

My hope is that once Apple starts using (a hopefully open standard) RCS, then everyone will switch to that and everyone everywhere can communicate securely.

raptore39 ,

Sadly, you make a good point. They will probably develop their own RCS servers and let others connect to that.
