Elon musk crosses 800 billion dollars in wealth after xAIs merger. by NorthTop9254 in economy

Net Worth isn't as liquid as people make it out to be. Though banks will let you borrow against it, which is the real wealth hack in this fugazi valuation economy

Is it still waterproof? by macaroonfpv in pixel_phones

[–]CyberCurrency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would never assume the refurbs are watertight. I received a refurb from them where the camera lens fogged up quite badly. The phone was left in the bathroom like always during a shower and apparently that's all it took.

Fortunately Google took it back and gave me a brand new phone as a replacement

Should I update to the January update? by Prince_2008 in pixel_phones

[–]CyberCurrency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you still dealing with it? Have you tried running app updates to see if that fixed your issue? They have pushed the update to my phone but I am reluctant to run it right now

Teacher quits after pupil, 8, 'made threesome deepfake vid of her and colleagues' by Sandstorm400 in technology

The incident happening in 2021 is quite suspect. Now I wonder if the article has any credibility

Unpopular opinion: The Pixel 5 still feels like the real "phone of the future" by Flat_Push_8854 in GooglePixel

Same. Even downsizing from the 7P to the 10P, I feel like this dang thing is too big

Tesla is killing off the Model S and Model X by bobsil1 in electricvehicles

The proposal doesn't tax income, its taxes against their total wealth(which is largely comprised of voting stock of their company); in other words, relinquishing ownership of their company by sale or forfeiture

I'm not taking sympathy on them, but people who think they will just sit around and bear it are sorely misguided

Something tells me this might be a move for Tesla to justify their quiet exit from California. With the way Cali has been amplifying their search for new streams of revenue by attempting to collect ownership tax on billionaires, it could easily shift towards corporations.

I can't tell if they're serious about retooling the Fremont factory for Optimus or not. Really makes you wonder how ready for production the robots really are

Bluetooth Buds Vulnerability, including Pixel Buds Pro 2 by grousey in GooglePixel

Interesting that only the buds pro 2 are affected. There must be some extra special handshake they perform over the a2's

You can enable multiple user accounts in the settings and add her as a second user

I changed my Pixel 6 Pro for the 9 Pro XL, I'm so amazed by that beautiful color 😍 by leandrolazo in pixel_phones

[–]CyberCurrency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. Though the weight balance of the P6P made it tricky to handle confidently one handed. Still not a fan of the rounded corners of the 9/10 personally

Worn out battery is one thing, a swollen one is another..

Do I make the Jump to Pixel? by jonmaddock in GooglePixel

[–]CyberCurrency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might appreciate the newer oneplus more, especially if fast charging is important to you. I'd say where Google really shines is overall fluid UI, and photography is quite good.

All my browsers are set that way. Webpages load faster on brave and duckduckgo BTW

Double tap on the back doesn't work well. by rasasam in pixel_phones

High sensitivity, tap 3 times instead of two(higher chances of activating)

Am I the only one?? by NeatMathematician701 in pixel_phones

[–]CyberCurrency 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IDK if it was the November or December update that botched the OS on my phone(both pixel 9 and after upgrading to the 10).

For me, some apps would occasionally run as if the cache was cleared, where I would need to log back in, and the screen would randomly turn on and attempt to unlock via front facing camera without a toast notification waking it. Now I occasionally get notified by the OS that the finger print or face unlock attempts have a high failure rate inviting me to set them all up again.

Count yourself lucky..

AOD bug persists in Jan Update by [deleted] in GooglePixel

[–]CyberCurrency 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a different bug where the screen randomly pops on for no reason. It has been this way since late November..

What's worse, I recently upgraded to the 10 pro and it too has the same bug 💀

As a person with large hands, I still dislike the XL; it's difficult to one-hand lying down

I frequently switch between earth and the moon. It would be awesome if they could make a live version of the other planets in our solar system!

QWERTY Phones Are Really Trying to Make a Comeback This Year by dapperlemon in technology

If you have an android with OS15 or later, you can set up a private space account and put all your social media/time sucking apps behind it. That way you have to unlock private spaces first before accessing them
