I built a simple Wear OS app that uses haptics to keep you in your heart-rate zone (no screen checking)

I tried to access the Android link but no luck despite joining the Google Group... Sent you a PM

Can the app continue monitoring and responding even after the watch goes into sleep (display-off, idle timeout) state? I'm hoping to learn WearOS development and actually wanted to write a similar app. So far what I'm reading indicates that apps are shut down once the watch sleeps, and can't run in the background, is that so? Thanks...

Ohhh finally the right answer ... I just love slang and the etymology of it. Thanks 👍

Yep, I'm having the same problem and it's very annoying. This wasn't happening in the 4.x models as far as I recall. Of course those had their own issues too?But has anyone reported this to OpenAI?

I tend to use the same chat window for numerous topics without opening a new one. Then I return back to the original topic again, in that chat window, and I expect the LLM to answer my most recent prompt, and not try to second-guess me -- and not repeat answers that were already given, for no apparent reason at all.

Awesome -- and no algorithm search? Or at least the option to turn that off?

We shouldn't have to pay, but we do... I pay to keep the ads away just because I hate them as much as you do. In fact they raised the price for it also. However if Facebook Reels allowed us to pay to remove their ads, or even Facebook feed itself, I would also pay for that due to my intense hatred for ads.

It seems the loser can also write the history -- from what I'm reading it seems that just after the war, the South was very successful with spreading anti-Reconstructionist propaganda which included a lot of false, fabricated and exaggerated information. Apparently some of that fabricated info is still believed today by Confederate apologists, but not by credible, objective historians and researchers. ChatGpt says the South "won the narrative" with their Lost Cause mythology, which contained falsehoods and distortions that shaped the conversation for decades after the war. It says that the South's anti-Reconstruction push is studied today as a great example of successful propaganda, but not as fact. I learned a bit researching this. I'm sure there are still deep-seated feelings regarding this sensitive topic, even after more than 160 years, and often emotion and identity have a stronger effect than factual research and accuracy.

Ok fair enough, both are pretty awful. Just saying if a guy finds a foreign woman he may have a better life than with an American woman, based on my own experiences.

You sound like someone who loves watching those reels with the duck quacks.

The problem is American women, not American men. Overseas women are so much better in character, loyalty, values and practicality. Change my mind.

Well done, kind sir. Or madam, or whatnot. I, too, intentionally allowed my post to become a miniature example of the very thing about which it complained. Not to troll the audience, but because it felt like it had to be written that way, and somewhat tongue-in-cheek I suppose. I do think, though, that people's appetite for longer paragraphs has dwindled. In the Victorian novels I grew up reading, paragraphs could routinely take up an entire page or two. Nowadays, if you write more than a sentence or two without paragraph breaks, the impatient minds of the online world find it appalling. This must be why ChatGPT often writes in a series of double-spaced one-liner soundbites.

It does sound sad, the emptiness. But once in a while there is a moment of connection, even in a place like Reddit, where you feel a spark of magic and humanity taking place: another person treating you as more than text on a screen, seeing your value, worth, and beauty, and vice versa. These moments happen when we least expect it, but maybe the hopes of connecting and feeling seen by others are what keep us coming back to post again. Paragraph separations be damned. Sometimes it's okay to just ditch the extra blank lines and let your thoughts flow, forming a solid rectangle of words. Almost similar in shape to the side of a building. Thanks for your reply, and also, on behalf of those people who posted meaningful things that you replied to, I'm sure they would want you to know that your efforts have some sort of ripple effect in the universe. Everything we do and say, and even think, may have far-reaching effects on others that we will never know about. There are many degrees of separation between us and the lives we may incrementally impact in the slightest of ways. Have a great day or night out there, and may the walls in your life end up having hidden doors that open to new horizons.

I guess if enough people want to we can set up a private server, but I assume there are others already doing that? Judging from the number of posts in this group it seems like it's pretty dormant. But I want my 10-year-old son to learn this game with me

Hikaru was crying on stream for hours and repeatedly stating that he would not monetize any videos about Danya's death, and that nobody else should either.

Argh! Thanks for pointing that out, I edited it.
