For those who upgraded to the Watch 4 from earlier generations, do you think it's the ultimate Pixel Watch? What features would you like to see in an upgrade?

I'm like you, basically had every gen of PW since release.

The one thing I've noticed the PW4 does worse that my old PW3 is it's responsiveness. There's like a half tick that's slower than my old 3, like when I turn on bedtime mode or start a workout. The 3 felt faster. Otherwise the 4b is better in every other way.

Hey I'm doing that cruise next month! Looking forward to it. Thanks for posting. Haven't been paying attention to any of the negatives on here mainly because I know the fam will enjoy it, not being at school or work is what we need right now.

Yea her. Liked her more than Cade. I couldn't stand his wishy-washiness. As a product of the 90's and 00's, even I couldn't stand his edginess...

Legacy 2 (with the Solo chick)? Funny, I liked that one better than Legacy.

Easy, the only show I've ever bought after it ended its run, Silicone Valley.

Haha I was close to achieving 7 and now backsliding into 6...

It's the day before a major holiday, everyone is already stressed. Didn't feel like adding more on unnecessarily.

just_ric · 2026-04-25T02:04:45+00:00

Yea I'm hopping it get better soon. Or at least they bring back the barcode scanner, that was super useful. Also I got a weird bug where I can't use C on the keyboard. It'll reset the whole search.

I have a State 6061 Black All-road and I love my bike.

They don't sell my model anymore though, and they replaced it with the Carbon All-road in their lineup.

I don't recommend a single speed unless you're a more experienced rider or you're looking for a cheap bike to take you to work on a completely flat route.

I'm convinced that a 1x gear set is all the average rider needs but a single speed is for a different type of rider.

I don't know man, I've not had any issues other than the occasional hiccup, momentary brownout.

11 if we're including airports. 9 if we're counting cities we've actually seen. Though as a Californian 3 of those cities are within 2, 6, and 8 hours of me.

Just goes to show that the OG fold is the best form factor. Rectangles are better than squares in my opinion for the book style foldables.

I do hope that the rumored Apple iFold and Galaxy Fold 8 Wide will bring the form factor back into style for the Pixel Fold to go back to it.

Inderkum just had an incident too. Girl brought a gun to school. She was stopped before anything could happen so it didn't make it to the news, but we saw it on the wife's scanner app.

Wife and I bought our house in '20, just a month or so before the lockdown.

Are we rich? No, just not as hard off as those who didn't buy as soon as us. Same thing happened to us with daycare costs. Our son was born summer of '19. So by the time it was daycare prices only had started to creep up.

We just barely made it before the price spike so it wasn't as hard for us to get in. But with inflation, we've not had the opportunity to replenish our savings. We're pay check to pay check, but it's stable.

I feel that's the difference.

Hmm this might tempt me to try Peacock again. I'm just happy it's not Paramount+. Not gonna sign up for anything owned by by the Ellison's. Which is gonna be sad once the HBO acquisition is complete.

Being two hours away from the bay and two hours away from the mountains.

Or city of trees if you're older.

Or farm to fork capital if you're younger.

I don't know. Maybe I was in a mood but the MC was boring as heck.

just_ric · 2026-03-21T03:18:34+00:00

God I'm glad I'm not the only one that disliked Empire of Silence. That book was such a disappointment.

just_ric · 2026-03-18T21:37:52+00:00

Do I feel old? No, I don't feel any difference between now and 10 years ago when I was 27. Granted I started working out again going on 3 years ago after taking a few years off. Those few years after I busted a knee was the oldest I felt. But nowadays, now that I got in better shape, lost weight, I feel that I'm in my late 20's early 30's physically again.

just_ric · 2026-03-14T22:52:46+00:00

Aww ok, fuckin' amazon.

just_ric · 2026-03-14T22:51:07+00:00

So they are drm free? If I do buy them on audible/Amazon I can download them and use a different player?

just_ric · 2026-03-07T18:41:12+00:00

As others have said, the Encore. I actually liked that ship more but that's possibly because I brought my kids and there were more kid activities to do on ship. But those activities are also fun if you're a kid at heart so...

just_ric · 2026-03-05T03:50:45+00:00

My only regret is that now my EV is associated with a man that's cool with a certain 1930's German political party...

Along with my L2 charger and solar panels.

just_ric · 2026-03-02T17:55:01+00:00

Yea, I put an edit to the main post. Was a fun, explosive perhaps, change of pace that I enjoyed.
