I’m currently running through it on a switch. If they can port it to the fucking switch of all things, I don’t see why not PC. Wild that they are finally doing it like a decade n a half later

It’s like 90% of discord emotes

I used to have a Miracast dongle and it worked like a champ. No wifi needed and it did exactly what I wanted. I always thought it was cool, but it never really caught on. Android killed off support a few years ago. You can still use it with Windows, but I mostly use a Chromecast now for convenience.

Never have I ever eaten lobster

Glad I’m not the only one

LMAO. I didn’t remember that name but I had a feeling I knew who it was. This guy’s arm stayed on though

I think this is a common thing with boy scouts. We happened upon an accident in between stations at camp. A kid ran up and tells us his dad crashed his car and he needed help. There was a man who was laying in front of the truck on the ground. His arm was bleeding profusely. We needed to administer first aid. The guy had a bunch of blood all over his arm and he was acting all incoherent. We decided to Jerry rig a tourniquet to stop the bleeding and send someone up the road to find a phone (pre cell phone days) The whole experience was super traumatic. All staged. Fuckers. They even had a pump shooting out fake blood from the guys arm.

I set up Amazon Echo buds recently. I have no desire to use any of the Alexa crap on them and just wanted cheap, decent noise cancelling Bluetooth earbuds on prime day. You apparently can’t set them up without the Alexa app and like all the permissions. I downloaded it on an old phone that’s practically blank, set up the buds, and deleted the app. Once it’s set up you can use like regular Bluetooth earbuds. They wanted location all the time and a few others (microphone maybe?). Selecting only allow this time wouldn’t even work. I get it Bezos, u want my data, but fuck off u aren’t getting it.

My mom’s TV had that. Absolutely infuriating. I want my TV to play the signal it gets, not try to “fix” it.

Lol, owned by Google. Kinda defeats OP’s purpose

I do not give 2 shits about people speaking foreign languages out in the ether for the most part. Having said that, there are 2 instances I can think of that grind my gears.

1. You order an Uber, and the guy who’s driving is on the phone with someone, and is speaking another language with them the whole time. This is more just for the fact that this is shitty customer service for someone who works on tips to an extent. For whatever reason, this seems to only be an issue with foreign speaking people. My guess is maybe they’re talking to family back home? I certainly don’t tip those people who are doing it, but I don’t care enough to call them out on it either.

2. As a poker player, they have rules about speaking English only at the table. This prevents collusion. I will absolutely call people out for English only at the table especially when there is a live hand going on.

Yeah, but the op was talking about worrying about people on the plane stealing from his bag in the overhead bin, not the TSA stealing from it. But yeah, TSA is grimy AF, I always make sure to count my money before and after I put my wallet through the security line. I also wouldn’t trust valuables in a checked bag as well.

It doesn’t change the fact that it’s a dumb idea. I get that this is the AAPL fanboi zone but ffs this thing dropped to 0 fanfare. It’s a dud.

You could do the virtual theater thing with your phone and Google Daydream like 8 years ago. It sucked then, and it’s no different now. Gimmicky tech is all it is. Unless they drop a true game changing VR game or something, it’s gonna join the club with meta quest and the rest of VR / AR devices. People will use it a handful of times thinking eh that’s kinda cool, then put it in a drawer to let it collect dust. I’ll happily eat my words if im wrong in 5 years, but I sincerely doubt these will take off. Apple is not going to drop price. Look at iPhone, they only ever went up in price.

A lot of developers bought Google glass too. It’s a stupid product with no use case.

I’m sure all 3 people that bought one of these POS’s are elated to know that it will work better with Spotify playing in the background.

1. Buy an EV
2. Jailbreak the EV (good luck w this one)
3. Replace the boring OEM sound that is coming out of the speaker to warn pedestrians to a fucking epic Tie fighter sound.

Good luck and Godspeed.

I’m spoiled. My mom makes jams and cans them, so 9/10 times, her homemade stuff

Maybe we can start a change.org petition to get this resolved.
