Comparing my current phone and previous.
  • You need a tripod or something to rest the phone against. The prompt to take an astrophotography photo doesn't come up until the phone had been held VERY still for 5-10 sec.

    Cops can force suspect to unlock phone with thumbprint, US court rules
  • Biometrics are fine, just use lockdown of you get pulled over or are going throgh TSA.

    You can still activate the camera/camcoder by double tapping power on a Pixel even in lockdown.

    AI editing tools are coming to all Google Photos users
  • So what we knew all along... It was possible to do these not-so-processor-intensive tasks on older pixels and other devices after all.

    I hate that Google artificially limits these features to new phones. The only reason I've stuck with pixel this long is their call assistant to answer then decline spam calls without having to notifying me.

    Breezy Weather: An open-source, privacy-friendly Android weather app forked from the now-unmaintained Geometric Weather
  • Does it have any widgets lines the cure day/time/weather or 5 day outlook.

    I'm one of those people that would rather have a weather widget on my home screen than opening an app every time.

    This guy's worst take yet
  • So the studio behind Senua's Sacrifice made a mocap headset that is like the iPhone face ID on steroids. The character on the left is the most realistic copy of the WOMAN who voices Senua in the game.

    Roku explores taking over HDMI feeds with ads
  • Not open source, but I use the Google TV chromecast in "apps only" mode.

    Its very minimal but you still get a single picture of whatever show is being promoted that week. No other intrusive adds have been added {yet}.

  • Would you like to rate your app 5 stars?

    I'll rate it 1 now because I've told you NO 3 times and you won't stop asking.

    I cannot stand these spam calls any more.
  • OP has pixel and is in the +1 area code from the picture meaning they are in America. So I don't get why he/she is not using Google Call screen.

    I still get spam calls, but my phone never rings or alerts me. The only way I find out is by occasionally opening call history. The assistant can recognize most spam automated messages and it automatically hangs up. For real spam callers; they mostly hang up when they realize they have to talk to a robot first.

  • I fixed that issue long ago by filling up my voicemail so no one can leave a voice message. Then have your voice mail tell people to send you a text.

  • You think switching your number is less complex than using call screen?

    That would literally involve changing your number with most major web services you use including your bank BEFORE you get rid of your old number. Better hopr you don't forget one because your not gonna get that sms verification code to log back in.

    Apple Terminated Epic’s Developer Account
  • Did you read the article?

    1. Epic is not trying to get their 3rd party app in apples app store.
    2. Epic can't create a 3rd party app store because Apple revoked their developer license. This means any app epic creates can't be sideloaded because it will never be signed by apple.
    3. Apples new rules require any 3rd party app store to pay apple $0.50 per install (there is no million app install requirement for 3rd party app stores). So apple would still make money off epics app store if they allowed it.

    AMC Theaters suck
  • I stopped going to movies after covid, but i was at one movie whereca fight broke out in that exact scinario. A group showed up right as the previews were ending to find other people had taken their seats. Its escalated where the girls were physically fighting and the manager had to break them up.

    AMC restarted the movie and gave everyone a free ticket to another movie after this 2 girls were escorted out.
