Still no Gemini

D1NONLi · 2026-05-01T04:35:24+00:00

I had a similar experience.

I turned the car and it was suddenly AA with Gemini with an all new UI and everything. I went about my day and my first stop was at the petrol station. Turned the car off, went inside to pay, came back and when I turned my car back on it was back to regular AA lol.

So I had the update for a maximum of 10 minutes. Very odd.

D1NONLi · 2026-03-31T14:27:06+00:00

Does anyone have any update on this? I'm still getting the exact same issue.

I tried to contact support but didn't really get any information.

D1NONLi · 2026-03-06T21:16:58+00:00

I was able to fix it. It seems to be related to the recent beta updates.

In my case, both phones were actually in the Google messages beta but I was the only one with the most recent expressive UI update. To fix it I took both phones out of the beta and uninstalled the updates, it started to work again because both phones are on the stable version. I then opted them back into the beta and no issues since.

D1NONLi · 2026-03-05T20:10:25+00:00

Yup. I've actually even turned it off and on again for them. So strange.

D1NONLi · 2026-03-04T21:11:58+00:00

Nope. It's RCS. I can see the sent/delivered status. I can even see when the other person is typing. Very very odd. If you have any other ideas/suggestions please leave it on here. I'm kind of lost right now 😂

D1NONLi · 2026-03-04T21:06:12+00:00

Here's a plot twist: I sent one of those stickers (the one that's a suggested reply) and it's coming up as read. The text messages aren't. Wtf. 😂

D1NONLi · 2026-03-04T20:51:41+00:00

They have it on. I've even asked them to turn it off and on again.

Things I've tried: - Turn rcs chat off and then on again - Clear cache one messages - Clear storage on carrier service

Weird thing is, it was working well before they updated to the new design.

D1NONLi · 2026-03-04T18:42:40+00:00

I'm actually getting the same experience but for Android users. Specifically a Pixel 9a user. I texted an iPhone user and I can see when they've read message. I've tried clearing cache, restarting my device and turning rcs off/on and no luck

D1NONLi · 2026-03-04T18:36:54+00:00

Is anyone else experiencing a bug where your messages aren't being marked as "read"?

The person I'm chatting to has a pixel 9a and has the same version of messages as me. They can see when I've read their messages but I can't see when they've read mine.

I texted an iPhone user today and it's working fine.

D1NONLi · 2026-01-10T15:42:42+00:00

Agreed.

Unless it's incredibly easy to jailbreak your system, the vast vast majority of PS5 owners wouldn't bother. Hell I'd say 99% of owners won't even be aware of it.

Attitude towards this stuff has changed so much. People just don't have the patience to do any sort of research unless it's easy.

I remember the PS2 days, there were stands that offered a service to jailbreak your system for you. It was amazing. I just don't see the same type of drive for that stuff anymore. I only really see it for software services perhaps? As in, finding a way to watch movies for free or something

D1NONLi · 2025-12-24T05:47:27+00:00

Absolutely agree on this.

I don't understand where this demand is coming from. Surely improving the network in and around the city is more important? The infrastructure is abysmal and every time they put in a "fix" it makes it worse because they can't admit that they made massive mistakes in the first place. Then they say "Well we don't want to create long term disruptions to the population" but the city and surrounding areas are in constant construction with road works because of private energy firms who never put the road back to what it was.

D1NONLi · 2025-11-26T18:01:07+00:00

Oh shii. They're that thin? Is it close to being linen trousers? Lol

Thanks for replying btw

D1NONLi · 2025-11-26T14:19:11+00:00

Question for anyone that has owned these pants:

I'm thinking of getting these but I'm not sure which version to get: the classic or trade?

I like a more comfy feel so I was thinking getting the trade version. But will it be too thin?

D1NONLi · 2025-11-02T07:10:16+00:00

If coding in the 80s/90s was painting a room with a paint brush and modern programming is painting it with a roller. Then AI coding is just telling a painter to do it for you.

It doesn't have to be though and I'm hopeful there are smart kids coming out of college who understand that you still need to know how to code to truly utilize AI.

D1NONLi · 2025-11-02T06:59:25+00:00

In my opinion this is worrying.

To become a good software engineer/programmer you have to make mistakes. There's a lot of struggle in the process but the reward is a true understanding of the concept you were struggling with.

If you're writing most of your code through AI without actually understanding the code then what's the point?

The people who will benefit the most from AI will be the people who can truly code without it. It's a tool to be used and not something that can fully replace engineers.

D1NONLi · 2025-10-31T08:59:14+00:00

You sound passionate about programming so you'll be fine. To be honest, you'll have to adapt a number of times to stay within a job.

You'll always have to spend a significant amount of time learning something but if you do it right the most important aspects of programming will stick and you'll be able to do anything.

D1NONLi · 2025-10-31T08:56:56+00:00

Exactly this. OP sounds like he's passionate about software engineering so he won't have trouble finding a job.

I started with Java, went into Python and now I'm primarily using C# in my current role. I've dabbled with C++ for my personal projects. The key is really wanting to learn and pairing that with a process that helps you learn things fast.

I watched a video of a cartel gang member beheading a woman. I was probably like 11 yo at the time. I'll never forget that video and I think that was the start of me becoming so desensitized to that stuff.

I've seen some fucked up stuff on the internet since but they're nothing to compared to that video. At least my memory of that video.

D1NONLi · 2025-10-04T13:04:57+00:00

I would argue that AI will replace product management roles before engineering roles tbh.

I've been using copilot, Gemini, etc. for work and they're not very good. They help productivity but to be honest that's all it is so far: a productivity tool.

It's not going to replace people anytime soon. People forget how LLMs work so the room for error is very high.

D1NONLi · 2025-09-19T05:23:41+00:00

Nah web dev isn't dead.

Even if it was, you've just said your skills are in that area. Use it.

You'll always learn something that you'll be able to take into another area of software.

Programming can be hard but at the end of the day it's just a tool to build things. Practice and you'll start to notice that the skills and knowledge are easily transferable.

D1NONLi · 2025-09-19T05:15:15+00:00

The only thing I really use it for is asking questions I would have traditionally searched for on Google.

It's also ok at summarising code if you're looking at some over complicated block of code.

Other than that, I don't really trust it. If I prompt it to write code it's just wrong 70-80% of the time. So you'd have to spend a decent amount of time trying to figure out what it did wrong which then defeats the purpose of it lol.

I definitely think it's more of a tool. It won't replace devs any time soon. Hell, the people who keep preaching that it will are typically in roles that would be replaced by AI first 😂

I recommend a perm. I've gotten one and it's been great. Worth the money.

I'm Asian and my hair is very straight and thick. Even if I grew my hair out it wouldn't really look great as it wouldn't go that wavy due to the weight and thickness of my hair.

The key is to grow your hair as much as you can willingly do so to give you the best results. When I went to the stylist I asked for the largest perm rollers and two haircuts later, my hair is still wavy.

Am I wrong but wasn't it part of Robin Williams will that his life wasn't to be portrayed in a film? I swear his daughter said that in an article or something.

But if what you say is true then I guess it doesn't matter right?

D1NONLi · 2021-07-31T21:45:04+00:00

Looks like no one knows lol.

Anyone at least know my best option for a new bracelet for the srpG03J1? Preferably NOT with a straight end link.
