That’s the whole point. Google assistant sucks because it only understands commands, and doesn’t understand natural language. This is Google’s attempt at making a truly great assistant, as they always envisioned it to be. Personally, I am very excited as there is a lot of potential in the technology. It would be a shame if they don’t execute well on it.

Yeah because headphone usage poses no ear health issues what so ever. Completely optimal solution

Oh no! Anyways…

It got you commenting so I guess that’s what you’d call a success

Don’t understand why crypto is regarded as “shady”. It works great for exactly this purpose. The solution is literally staring you in the face lol

And who’s gonna stop us?

Universities often teach students to write a lot of comments, because you are required to learn and demonstrate your ability to translate between code and natural language. But this is one of the things that are different in professional environments.

Every comment is a line to maintain in addition to the code it describes. And comments like this provide very little (if any) extra information that is not already available from reading the code. It is not uncommon for someone to alter the code that the comment is supposed to describe without changing the comment, resulting in comments that lie about what the code does, forcing you to read the code anyway.

It’s like if you were bilingual, you don’t write every sentence in both languages, because that is twice as much text to maintain (and read).

The exception of course, being if you are actually adding information that is not available in the code itself, such as why you did something a particular way.

Just wanted to chime in and say that I am super happy with my Pixel 7 so far. Easily one of the best phones out there, especially considering the price.

In my experience, I have found the least intelligent people to also be the most vocal, which makes it look like they are overrepresented in the population.

Look at Trilium if you want an open source and selfhosted alternative to Obsidian

What’s the documentary called?

It’s probably worth noting that this has a lot to do with VCs pumping in a seemingly unlimited amount of funding for services that aren’t profitable yet but has potential to be later. Hence why Twitter is still a thing despite running at a loss for almost its entire lifetime.

Nothing is stopping the user from accessing lemmy.world communities from the alternative instance they chose (unless it has defederated). It’s just that in this case lemmy.world did not want to be responsible for the user’s content.

Abusing admins is nothing new and with reddit you have absolutely 0 recourse besides making a new account at the mercy of the very same admins. On Lemmy at least you can select another instance and still access the same content.

This would be a concern if lemmy.world was the only instance, but this person can and should just find a different instance they agree more with

Doze mode is still a vital part of the Android power saving featureset, yes.

Pay walled? There was a popup asking me to log in, but I just closed it and was still able to read the full article. My apologies if that was some kind of trial mode.

Interesting. Do you reboot your phone a lot?

You can still do this without root, but the app needs to target an older SDK version, meaning you can’t install it from Google Play. And even if you get the APK, Android will only let you install it through ADB. You can run an ADB shell on-device with Shizuku, so you don’t need a computer. Still annoying they made it so difficult though.

This point is frequently overlooked imo

We’re going full circle
