…to its full potential 💪💪

Not really the fault of the EV then tho :D

Daaaamn crazy story. Scary you can just tap out like that. Good on him he didn’t get injured too much

What was the issue? Do you know?

Yeah if I’d be her I’d rather cut my finger off than do that tbh 😅

If she uses software from CC and not only stores data there then I don’t think anything will be able to replace it without frustration. You have to get used to a whole different workflow.

All these news pieces about A.I. killing ancient company xyz …

It’s an experimental device and by buying it you invest into r&d. It’s not meant to replace a smartphone as of now, but similar ones eventually will.

My point stands, because they are offering a completely new (but obv lacking) experience with novel design solutions. What they made is a toy, which is not really unusual for teenage engineering. But if they do as they did with other devices in the past this thing might actually rock in the future. They are not inexperienced and usually over super long support for their devices.

TE is way older than Nothing and Playdate btw…

Because, you know, technological development? Someone has to fund R&D, because it’s not cheap. And in 10 years everyone will have similar ai-enhanced devices. No one thought smartphones will make it back in the days as well. And I’m already looking forward to the time when I don’t have to look down anymore to get information

They have thought of a specific design for the device using its own interaction modality and created a product that is more than just software.

Therefore don’t get why people refer to it being just an app? Does it make it worth less, because it runs on Android? Many devices, e.g. e-readers are just Android Apps as well. If it works it works.

In this case it doesn’t, so why not focus on that?

Sure, but then it’s still worth more than this article lol

It’s not marketing talk if you know 5+ people and noone has problems with their battery after two years.

Hahaha true.

I also like the Airpods Pro :) I even rebought them, when I lost them. Only apple item I ever owned. But the fit is awesome and they never hurt. I could wear them all day. And battery lifetime is probably as long as the one of a smartphone battery.

Agree to disagree. Was really helpful in Vietnam e.g., and I also don’t have problems with it in Germany.

They do provide sth unique, because open source/privacy friendly alternatives are not supporting the same features to a full extent in one solution with a simple UX. And even Bing, as you mentioned and other competitors, fall short. I’m using Startpage (based on Google) and OSM most of the times and I’m happy with it, but sometimes I gotta check restaurant ratings or satellite view etc. Also route planning is way more convenient on gmaps even if I don’t use it. There’s probably more as well, which I’m not aware of.

Yes exactly, YouTube is the only google service I use almost everyday (besides Startpage)… but I wouldn’t know what to do without it.

Fair enough :)

?

That’s a stupid point to make tbh, because the most important information, knowledge and entertainment is on their platforms in a quality and quantity that is unprecedented. Meaning you can try to avoid it, but from time to time you have to use google/gmaps/yt/…

And that’s coming from me… someone who degoogled their smartphone.
