My pixel 8 throttles as soon as I’m not using WiFi if it’s warmer than 21°C outside… It hasn’t shown me any warning but it has randomly shut down before.

I’m starting to really dislike android. A lot. Material you isn’t picked up by anyone but Google and a few apps here and there.

Stock android is a joke, it barely works.

Pixel flavor android has been the same for three years only adding ai nonsense to the latest releases.

My pixel 8 has awful battery life and gets super hot on light use like, listening to music over Bluetooth.

How the fuck did we end up here. I want a redesign. I want a consistent redesign that doesn’t age as badly and quickly as any android design has. Everyone in the design community keeps glorifying material design over iOS but honestly iOS has aged way better than even the newest design of material you…

RT is a feature on phones now?

I am involuntarily on the QPR beta (2) and all of A14’s battery improvements that came to my P6 are gone again, my phone’s battery life is as awful is it ever was. I lose 40% of battery life in ~ one hour of screen on time when commuting

I love both of these creators for the content they put out. Matt has been posting some really good points on Instagram.

But sadly while this isn’t a bad first episode to his podcast, they just talk about things that have been talked about for years now with little to no depth.

The second episode was already a great improvement from that kind of surface level discussion

Oh god that’s so stupid…

The whole point of the weird Barbie is that it’s being badly treated by kids, and was once a normal Barbie… Why do they now sell what we all did to our barbies at some point as a brand new one

Having read the book more recently than watched the movie, but isn’t this very obvious?

The electric animals are reduced to a reference in the movie while they are a really important part of the novels world building and the different characters motivation for a higher status…

Having now read the article too I gotta say it’s a really weird take to say the usage of blade runner for the movie and the job deckard does is inherently better is a weird take. They are my least favourite additions from the movie actually.

The name might be easier to market but the job now being percieved as detached from the police department harms the story in my opinion.

I mean it’s literally how I remembered it being a name. And it’s a pretty common one too once you look for it.

I don’t mind it for now and it has been more if a conversation starter than anything. Also some one line friends keep calling me mayannaise which is funny as hell to me.

With my deadname playing with the name of it in a mocking way always felt like the worst insult possible to me. With my chosen name it’s fun and I take part in it… I think that’s a good sign

As someone whose egg cracked very recently I am still unsure if Maya will be my final decision.

It’s tough for me. The female Versions of my deadname were ones ingot bullied with my entire teen years so they have this very negative memory to them.

First I went in a direction of names I just find nice and pretty I guess. Starting with Sofia which didn’t really fit my vibe, then Florence which is a really nice name but a bit too extra for me. Shortened it to Flora but that felt odd.

For two months now my gf and some friends have been calling me Maya. How did I find it? I reminded of the 3D program Maya. I remembered it’s also a name. I liked the sound of it and it felt like it fit my vibe and so far that has been the case
