Gemini is complete garbage in Android Auto

It also can’t read labels on gmaps. Can’t read people’s “nickname” field in contacts (there are so many Roberts). And can’t access or write notes without also requiring access to my emails (hell no).

Those are the three things I use AA for, and it’s objectively worse at every single one of them.

Also, guess which middle eastern country regularly sends their officers to train the Singaporean military? Hint: it’s not Palestine

I think you’re projecting a little. People act like this no matter the field. We swim in the tech pool, so we mostly only see the shit floating in our pool.

I can assure you the neighbour’s pool also has their fair share of floaters.

Any type of bread following the same standard will fit into a standard toaster.

is how it should be done

No it isn’t.

The whole point of partitions is so you can have multiple things on the same drive. Be them data, swap, or… yes, operating systems.

RAM prices exploding only means Apple takes a tiny hit to their profit margin per device, considering how inflated they were in the first place.

Not just folders, every icon has 4-way configurable swipe. I’ve gone a little swipe crazy now. Who needs folders when you can launch 5 different things by swiping a single icon…

Yeah, nah. That’s not how the term up/downstream is used in the context of product streams.

You mean being able to find whatever I need without clicking through 5 links?

Personally, a few reasons.

• I don’t need to run 2 containers and >10GB. I could just install and run in 10 seconds.
• My whole library and metadata is self contained in a single dir. On a fresh OS install I could simply point Calibre to the dir, and off we go.
• A rich plugin ecosystem, including deDRM plugins.
• I can just ignore the AI stuff (for now, at least)
• I’ve used it for close to 2 decades. Familiarity is definitely a factor. And yes, it’s still as ugly as it was 20 years ago. But once you’ve set your workflow up, the UI just kinda melds to the background.

It is one of the ugliest, most complex to configure, pieces of software I’ve ever used. It’s also the best ebook management tool out there. I love Calibre.

I knew who it would be before opening the video. His whole thing is about making strange - and very often, unsafe - musical instruments. One of his early videos was replacing piano hammers with actual hammers.

His spinning guitar is actually super cool though!

They’ve fixed Truecrypt vulnerabilities uncovered by previous audits, and have themselves been audited at least twice

Edit: some highlights on the latest audits and their response.

Before buying our latest, the family sat down and defined the minimum physical controls a car needs to have; functions that are used often while the vehicle is actively moving.

• Aircon
• Lights
• Cruise
• Media

Wipers, maybe. Automatic wipers are annoying, but deemed not a dealbreaker as long as the others above are present.

It was shocking how many makes/models did not even meet the bare minimum.

Everyone has a price. Maybe a superyacht or two from Gabe’s fleet?

Huh. So the ABC changed its title to match the URL? That’s a little… unusual…

Ireland and the Netherlands are most definitely heavyweights.

But I agree with the sentiment, can we not editorialise headlines, please?
