Don't worry y'all. By cloud it's just gonna be dynamic ads.

But for real, background animations and details could be streamed through another device having to render that something. Anything that doesn't revolve around the gameplay itself.

Unless it's the wii-u

Is this not a tiny, super fraction of a number? The average household probably has 10x lithium batteries around in various things.

Can you explain why that matters if the hardware at the charger could initiate and control all that?

100amp or 200amp? I figured a main upgrade will be inevitable with the push to electrify more than the car in houses.

Google One is the marketing people are probably referring to for privacy.

The pixel has the default function for DNS over HTTPS and their Google One offering has a VPN to "protect" your data. Both of those are sold as privacy measures.

I see a lot of responses here seem kinda out of touch with the actual functionality of the phone and what marketing pushes Google does.

Guess we got no hair spray?

Their logic is the same as "cigarettes are fine because other things cause lung cancer too". Guess they would rather see everything banned all at once or nothing at all.

This is why they say you guys have a tipping culture.

[–] Boxtifer 7 points 1 year ago (3 children)

My experience is that the culture is slightly different. You know how rude it is to raise your hand to get a waiter's attention? Generally it's the opposite and that approach is preferred. They don't want to bother you unless you need them and that's fine.

Nah, most don't. Most don't have a plan when their cars don't start, emergency home repairs, or getting critically injured when nobody is home.

Car culture incentives you to want a car and to use a car. That's okay.

Good point. Can't win them all. If life was perfect then a simple communication could be used if need be. If only people didn't wanna hit other people all the time or something.

[–] Boxtifer 3 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I don't get this. You slow down if you don't want to hit people. You also have a set of eyes. Are people not able to go "person walking in front, let's slow down and go behind them". If it's a wall of people, then of course you stop.
