4 days agoAlmost all of those are Android-based at their core, even the Punkt MP02, and MC02/03. That doesn’t help.

5·4 days agoNow that they’re in deep with government contracts, AI, and infrastructure, no reason to pursue user-facing products anymore. Very visible as they cancel Nest products one after another, torpedo Fitbit, and on and on.
2·10 days agoOh snap, 100%. Good fucking callout. Apple did similar since the 1990s and …well… look at them nowwww!

They can’t think of anything actually useful to design anymore.
Sorta? But their parent Lenovo is chronically terrible at ever supporting the Motorola phones for one or two major OS version. The hardware is generally solid.
Not that there’s been a single genuinely good Android feature in 10 years, and most of the time Google just makes the OS worse now, but security updates seem important to maintain.

Google is a sellout hypocrite of the highest order and has been for…15, 18 years?
If you read the alleged protection dialog, Google’s only blocks against 2G networks. The same of which many carriers allow, enable, or enforce blocking, and if not *#*#info#*#* let’s you do it yourself.
“2G network protection - Avoids 2G networks, which are less secure”
Instead, all that money is being used to accelerate our doom. AI datacenters unnecessarily consuming power and drinking water in small towns everywhere. Many just dumping humidity into the air and letting that water literally blow away via lazy evaporative cooling. Most “normal” water consuming processes consume, treat, and return water to the downstream-traveling aquifer.
Now, couple that with an overall warming climate. When air is warmer, the more moisture the air can hold. So we end up with more water vapor in the air than normal. With the weirding factor of climate change, this means more water energy for more powerful and destructive storms the likes of which humanity has never seen. Which feeds back into more ice melting, oceans rising, permafrost melting, cycle, accelerate, cycle, accelerate.
Also, real curious to see how millions of warehouses belching humidity and heat into the air across the surface of the globe can affect the general weather patterns, but that sadly won’t be known until after the damage is done.
And every fake-friendly long-winded response consumes more electricity and water than it should, while also being useless.
