If you look at the history of releases of iPhone and Android Google apps, features usually come out on the iPhone first.

A couple of theories range from programming on iOS is easier to the iOS team is simply better.

Thank you for your input. I think I’m gonna give another try.

Note for other readers, Traditional T9 is a keyboard available on F-Droid.

I tried Thumb-Key. Learning curve was really high. I instead went with Unexpected Keyboard, also no predictive text. I really enjoy using Unexpected Keyboard and I don’t have to through a bunch of sub keyboards to look for a symbol. I rarely go to a different sub keyboard.

Do you type faster with Thumb-Key than a normal keyboard like GBoard? In your opinion, is it worth learning?

Not one? Not one letter?

According to GSM Arena there have been 67 Android phones released (or rumored to be released) with a removable battery and a headphone jack with a IPx7 to a IPx9 rating.

67 Android Phones

In total there are 93 Phones of any OS that fit that criteria.

The last Android phone that meet these specs is the Samsung Galaxy XCover7, released in January 23, 2024. Current price is the US Amazon store is $399.99.. Weird that I never heard of this phone before…

They supported Intel Macs for 4 years now. I wish it was a little longer. This will probably shutdown Hackintosh and OpenCore Legacy Patcher updates.

From this date, manufacturers will have to provide operating system and security updates for every smartphone or tablet for five years after the end of sales.

OS updates too? That’s interesting.

I would’ve been fine with 2 years of security updates after 3 years of OS updates. OS updates do include security features but security updates are more important to the average consumer. Most people won’t know what version of Android they are on. Most people wouldn’t know if their 7 year old iPhone is no longer receiving updates.

Speaking at an event promoting his new book, Clegg said the creative community should have the right to opt out of having their work used to train AI models.

No, it should be the opposite. The creative community should have to opt in. AI can run off the uploaded pieces. Everything else is theft.

But he claimed it wasn’t feasible to ask for consent before ingesting their work first.

What the fuck…?! Send a fucking email. If you don’t get an answer, then it’s a “No”. Learn to take no for an answer.

This is great. The more manufacturers follow or compete for this standard, the better it is for the consumer and the environment.

If getting rid of DEI is really about getting the best people for the job, then why aren’t Asian Americans, who usually get the highest GPA in schools and highest performance reviews in corporate and government jobs, dominating in all levels? Something ain’t white about that…

Contracts always have some bullshit like: “We can do whatever the fuck we want. Service not guaranteed. We have the right to refuse service to anyone. Lifetime is defined by the lifetime of the service which is defined by us. Can change at anytime.”

No prob. My comment was from two week ago.

There is an update on the site:

Update: The Beelink ME mini is priced at 1295 CNY in China, which is about $177 at the current exchange rate. It’s likely to cost a bit more outside of China. A number of performance testing, unboxing & teardown, and other articles are also available at Chinese shopping & product recommendation site smzdm.

But Beelink released the product with the same specs except this one has a N150 instead of a N200.

Beelink ME mini 6-Slot Home Storage NAS Mini PC Intel® Twin Lake N150

Price Currently:

12GB LPDDR5+64EMMC+2TB Crucial SSD - $329 $400

12GB LPDDR5+64EMMC+4TB (2TB*2) Crucial SSD - $429 $529 Currently not available.

I don’t think this is a new productvso maybe they are just getting rid of their N150 stock. The one in China has an N200.

That Jelly Phone is mighty tempting.

Dual SIM, SD card reader, headphone jack, and a back fingerprint reader.

I can just use this thing as a music player/back up phone.

Saying they are cutting the EV incentive is just another form of market manipulation.

They want people to panic buy, just like they did with cell phones, just like the stock market. It’s all manipulation.

You know what, people can just add their own bluetooth speaker.

I think it’s fine.

Just in case the only thing you’re looking for is the price, I’ll save you a click.

Beelink hasn’t announced how much the ME mini will cost or when it will be available for purcahse yet.

When Trump tweeted it’s a good time to invest, a lot of people assumed it would be a pro Tesla move. Tesla went up 23% in a day.

If you got a permit from the government to start building a deck, you started, then they found the mistake in the permit, that’s on the government and they should accept their fault.

In this case, the NYT never gave permission.

In your example, there was no permit applied for, a cop saw you building the deck, and when the government said you need to stop and apply for a permit, you say the cop seeing you building the deck is a permit since they didn’t stop you.

Yeah, me too. Like I get the words but not the logic.

Maybe their lawyers used ChatGPT.
