    I don’t really understand how they consistently manage to screw things up. And they always say that the features are coming, but they never do.

    I’m still bitter over Inbox.

    I used to be excited about new things from Google. Tried to get into every beta, downloaded the newest released apps etc. But not anymore.

    I just read about tasks being removed from Google Keep. Then the feature removal from nest hubs. Do they have a unified strategy at all? Or is it just the whims of a manager’s daily musings that drive what development does?











  • Titanfall 2 is an amazing game. It’s single player is one of the best - it never gets stale as there’s always a new mechanic, both as a ‘pilot’ (soldier) or in a titan, to master or a twist you didn’t see coming. The story itself is top notch, and it’s length is good.

    If I remember right, you can pause at anytime, even in cutscenes. They’re not long though.

    Plus, the multiplayer has been fixed just recently so you can vs others in some of the best feeling combat any game has to offer.

    I’ve never played the others though, so feel free to go with them.


  • I’ve hidden the lemmit.online bot, which is just a repost from Reddit bot which no-one interacts with, and encounter this regularly.
    Sometimes to the point of having to hit retry several times to load the next page.

    I’d love for it to retry automatically. I get the spamming thing, but this could be alleviated by putting a delay before trying - it’s no different from the time it takes for me to press retry. But having to reach to the bottom corner to press retry is really annoying.



  • I think the difference is that Apple products can be repaired, as parts are plentiful for third party repairers and apple will also repair it (for a premium).

    The article is saying how no-one, not even Google, can repair a pixel watch as there were no spare parts produced.

    Edit: I understand their repair policies re MacBook repair shops etc, but for a consumer being told that even the manufacturer can’t do anything is a bit galling and cause for reflection on future purchases.
