Lemmy users trying to go 3 minutes without talking about Linux

Been using Pixel phones since the Pixel 2XL.

It simply comes down to simplicity and updates.

It always seems like with other manufacturers (especially Samsung) they try to throw everything they can at you to see what people might use. Whether that be 3 different apps for taking notes or 19 camera modes depending on what kind of food I'm taking a picture of.

When it comes to updates, I know manufacturers have definitely stepped up their game, but I'm still burned out on updates from before I had a Pixel. I used Moto phones before then and would often wait a year after a major version release to get the update.

Getting day 1 updates and being able to participate in betas is a big plus for me

I hate these "only a small amount of people will understand" posts

They all look so incredibly bored to be there...

Surely there's a machine that can do this testing lol

Went to San Francisco and California in general for the first time this past May. I've grown up in the suburbs on the East Coast with a very conservative family.

They were all losing their minds when I told them I was going to go. They were convinced I was going to get 16 times a day.

The city and state as a whole was absolutely beautiful (visited Yosemite and got engaged). There was so much to do that I had never experienced as someone who grew up in the suburbs. There was only one time we felt a bit uncomfortable but we were aware of the situation and had plans to get out if need be.

We rode public transportation (the horrors!) the whole time without any problem.

I know it's not perfect by any means but to me the problem is fear mongering by the likes of Fox

AFAIK were stuck waiting until Apple rolls out their version of tracker alerts

cries in Now on tap

Land of the giants is one of my favorites

Only about 1 season a year but each season is about the rise (and sometimes fall) of big tech companies

Unexplainable is cool too, about weird sciencey things that we don't have an explanation for

Yosemite

How does it diminish functionality for you?

To me it seems like it only updates the accent pieces of the UI

What does a room temperature super conductor allow us to do?

My man, I'm not using lemmy 2 hours a day every day for 60 something years
