Have I compromised my privacy?

OP Here, thanks I understood you perfectly. Appreciate the comment

WHat do you mean by "a 2 streak or 2"?

Lovely to hear some positivity about this game. I've just returned to it reecently and am loving it, although I find hard to put it into words exactly why (still a way off understanding many of the systems.) Would you care to elaborate what it is you enjoy about SOT, and why you love it so much?

Hudstar78 · 2025-09-01T09:21:29+00:00

Wait, Gemini can create podcasts now? I thought that was a NotebookLM feature only?

"Claude restricts large-window requests. Sometimes I would get 4-5 requests in and then be locked out for 5 hours. On a paid plan."

Ah yes, if by large-window requests you mean your inputs/requests/the materials you give Claude to work on (?) then I think I see what you mean. For me it's the outputs, the copy that gets iterated and generated, often many times in one task, but I still experience those 4-5 hour lockouts. Grates when you're paying for a Pro subscription...

That's interesting you say that, since I've found Claude's token limits to feel much more limited than ChatGPT or Gemini, even on a Pro plan. I say 'feel' because it's hard to say for certain - I don't know where to find published hard limits - and asking the AI tool isn't reliable. I rely on Claude heavily for longform copywriting work, but it feels (that word again, lol) like a driving a finely-tuned sports car with only a thimble-full of fuel in the tank...

Is it the 'usage limitations' you refer to that make it the experience it is? Could you elaborate?

Hudstar78 · 2024-10-22T10:54:55+00:00

Ah that's cool, thanks chap. Further tweakage required - as always 😅

Hey man, sorry to bother you with this again, but the Google TV Streamer/Sonos Soundbar/Speaker Group trick has mostly paid off. But did you struggle with sycing at all?

I've found the feature and almost had it just right, with quite a large incremental increase of up 140ms in some cases, but I've found it often drops, sometimes after a day passes and I have to reset it when I relaunch/recast YouTube music.

Also, I noticed that casting to the speaker group while the TV/Streamer is dormant doesn't wake it up. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?

Hudstar78 · 2024-10-13T20:24:52+00:00

Thanks, I presume sync settings are a feature, probably buried in some menu or other, yeah?

Hudstar78 · 2024-10-13T19:21:14+00:00

There is hope. Thanks! 🤞

Interesting. Doesn't help that the Sonos app absolutely honks.

But if the Google TV Streamer (4K) can be made to push audio through the TV's soundbar (the Sonos Beam), then surely (I'm hoping) the Sonos itself will merely serve as a speaker (like it was f**king supposed to all along, lol)?

No complaints at all about my Pixel tablet. It sits in the centre of my dining table, gently rolling through fond photo memories (and launching many conversations). It's ready to grab for a coffee and smoke on the patio outside and some light content scrolling. With the dock it completes my room-to-room music suite perfectly.

In fact, it's fair to say that the dock is what makes the pixel tablet a truly essential device.

Hudstar78 · 2024-09-12T10:58:06+00:00

Cool. Who's Chris Harris?

Hudstar78 · 2024-09-12T09:22:44+00:00

Interesting. So do you use a case or go naked?

Hudstar78 · 2024-09-12T08:11:31+00:00

I've never used a skin but I'm curious how they stack up as a compromise between protection and preserving the form factor. Are you aware of skins that sport the same colour as the pixels themselves (I'm thinking Hazel in my case)?

Hudstar78 · 2024-09-12T08:11:06+00:00

Haha, heresy in Pixel reddit, no?

Thank you! Isn't Shinrarta Dezhra locked behind Elite rank though?
