Thanks, I keep checking their stuff but haven’t seen anything. I’ll take a look

The a line of pixel phones is great too. Unlike other brands that gimp the shit out of everything below their $1100 option, the pixel a just makes the full fat ones feel like a worse deal
At this point google is pretty much the only company providing an Android experience that isn’t shit
Anyone I’ve met that hasn’t liked it has used a Samsung. They try so hard to be apple but they don’t understand the parts that work and just create an overall bloated and shitty experience
Doesn’t help that they have overpriced everything
And now that I look it up, it’s a $500 tablet? This discussion was around the cheap media consumer ones that are $150 give or take. At $500 I would just get a $1000 laptop
All Samsung? And maybe that’s the case, relatively, but going from Lenovo with pretty much stock android to a newer Samsung was a very noticeable downgrade
Ok, that makes it even more sad what they’re doing. Feature wise it was already worse in my experience, but actually worse for performance? Geez
Guess I’ll just have to keep my Tab4 8 alive even longer
Or just some terrible flaw that’s obnoxious
I have some 8" Lenovo tablet I got years and years ago. It’s fine for videos and such and that’s where I use it most. It also has 2 forward facing speakers. Very decent, balanced sound. Low on space because android sucks under 64GB but it’s manageable
Any “upgrades” to it over the years have had single speakers or some other annoying flaw so I haven’t upgraded
I’ve tried Samsung ones but even their newer ones are slower than my 5 year old one. It’s so annoying
Mine still works
When digging through some stuff from a move in 2018 I noticed a tablet. WTF is this?
Charged it. Booted it up. Nexus 7 v2
Little fucker still was going
And don’t even try to do a conversion of text to numbers in a big column. There’s a super fast way (name is eluding me) but if you respond to the error popup I imagine it looks at each cell of text, thinks says, “abracadabra you’re now a number!” for every row. It takes that long
All they did was add a . to it. How tough can that be? Don’t. Be Evil
My favorite, since I’m not a programmer anymore, is excel
E: Your formula has a circular reference. I ain’t doing shit till you fix it
Me: where?
E: In your spreadsheet, I don’t fucking know
I haven’t tried to prove anything. I replied what the data sources were on the chart. It wasn’t a serious comment and it’s not my chart
Excel, Data Source 1 is “Chair pay” and Data Source 2 is “Firefox usage”
If I have to stop reading shitty web pages and stick to maybe places like this and books, I’ll probably be happier anyway
It’s like the evolution of the $x.99 mental trickery. They realize that getting $1 1-2 times a day was much more palatable than $20 a month or once.
I refuse to play mobile trash because not only will I not give in to that shit, I refuse to play games that purposely are made worse because not enough people are paying (and there’s never enough)
They’ve really strongly adopted their new “Do only evil” mantra
Back when RAM wasn’t in the gigabytes for everyone, it just started bloating tabs and usage like crazy. Chrome handled it better and faster
Things have flipped, where Chromium is super bloated
I feel that way when I stressed about doing something for days and when I finally did it it took 20 minutes
