For the keyboard I recently discovered HeliBoard. You have to add a gboard's library to enable glide typing, but so far I really like it. https://f-droid.org/packages/helium314.keyboard/

The concerted effort to hide his insane rants is unforgivable.

I'm convinced all of these ghouls will do whatever they can to buy/cheat/steal these elections. Because if they don't, they all face potential prison time. And Bannon's not looking forward to going back.

Musk is a slimey salesman. His job as CEO is to hype bullshit.

That was from when Macs ran Intel and could easily dual boot Windows. I still have an old Mac Book Pro with Windows 10 on it. Updates only stopped recently because Win10 is at end of life. I've been meaning to blow everything out and i

I had a phone with a Bixby button too. I remapped it to other apps, and never used Bixby. I wish phones had more hardware buttons again.

GoodLock is one of the best apps on Android. I wish it were part of the OS and available on every device.

Animation is also called the illusion of life [1], which when done properly always looks better than recreating real life. But I also get it. It's easy to fall in love with the technology. [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/

Unfortunately that's a wall street problem. I don't think wall street can be fixed, at least I don't have any clue on how it's possible to fix it outside of destroying it.

I use Flauncher too. I also use Netguard from F-Droid and block everything except streaming apps and their dependencies. I only unblock Google when a steaming app requires an update. I'm slowly dropping subscriptions and moving to Jell

We're running a solution that isn't perfect and isn't for everyone. We have a nice Sony Android TV along with a pihole. But on the TV itself I installed f-droid and netguard. Netguard's UI sucks on a TV, but it's wo

This is the same reason why we haven't bought a new vehicle. Our 2013 Toyota is fantastic.

I really wanted to build a new PC this year, which is obviously not happening anymore. But I do have 2x16GB DDR5 SODIMMs from my laptop that I'm not using, after I upgraded to 64GB a while back. Now I wonder if I can build a tiny PC ar

I worked at a company once that didn't use any anti cheat. I once asked why, and they said the matchmaking system solved the problem for them. The matchmaking was good enough so cheaters only ever played with other cheaters, and it kep

I don't think they care about the hardware anymore. They want people in the Samsung ecosystem logging in with a Samsung account being served Samsung ads in every Samsung app.

My rear view mirror does this, I wish my side mirrors did too. Although recently I've noticed some cars headlights can even pierce my rear view mirror's polarized dimming. It never used to be a problem in the past. I've seen

Haha I've also angled my side mirror out of my eyes, which incidentally is back towards the car behind me. I of course angle it back if I need to change lanes, but it's such an annoying thing I have to do just to see the road ahea

And here I am leaning towards upgrading my Windows 10 local account PC to Windows 11. I guess MS is making it easy for me on that decision. They can get bent.

As a data point, I turn 5G off on my phone and get several hours more battery life using 4G. I'm pretty sure the higher bandwidth is consuming more energy, especially since 5G works at shorter distances and probably needs the power to

My kids love looking at that site whenever we have a thunderstorm. They like seeing a strike on the map, then watching the realtime animated shockwave arrive over our location at the same time the sound of thunder arrives.

I'd argue Netflix productions started out almost as great as HBO, but quickly took a dive when they started pushing quantity over quality. Now finding a quality Netflix production is about once a year. Maybe that's the same rate a

"But it could be this, or it could be that." Just look at the facts without trying to reframe everything. Your comments come across as deceitful. Listen to the words of this President, and the people in his administration compared

So you're saying 2 previous presidents were more successful without using a campaign of threats and violence? And they didn't have to ignore court orders either? Makes you wonder...
