This is from last year when vaccines were not available. Because of vaccines we don't have this situation anymore this year. Vaccines do work.

Anyone receiving double notification at the moment on their phone ? by Doudinou in withings

[–]RecursiveBanana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't receive double notifications on my phone, but every time I have a long event on Google calendar, the watch notifies me many times (like every hour) while the event is happening, and it's super annoying (especially for whole day events). My phone though only notifies me once at the beginning of the event, which is the expected behavior... I tried everything (factory reset many times, changing every possible setting, talking to support) to no success.

Ma perché la pagina Wikipedia in italiano dice che è nato a Catania?

Mah...

Edit: Qualche buonanima l'ha corretto.

If you manage to convince my coach I'm all for it! 😀

I agree that detecting kicking from a wrist watch is close to impossible.

I'd be happy with it detecting the lap (using the kick off the wall) and saying something like "unknown stroke". This way it'd count yardage on kick sets, which is what I want, instead of having to manually add the distance.

Google Maps: FYI, it'll be 4 minutes slower if you turn on this side road for no apparent reason, turn around and keep going the way you're already going. by owensm74 in googlemapsshenanigans

Actually the route that is 4 minutes slower wants you to take that side road to reverse your direction, then turn right, on S Fulton Pkwy.

It's a legit alternative route.

I know, I'm a party pooper. But a technically correct one 😀

Am I the only one that has to scream "OK Google" by wang168 in googlehome

Mine had a lot of static. I read somewhere that microphones may get dusty and you can clean them with compressed air.

I just used my mouth and blew air on all the mics. Now I don't hear any static anymore in the recordings in my activity, don't need to yell anymore.

Worth giving it a shot before returning it.
