Maybe don’t close the studios making your only good games next time? Dunno, just a thought
And burns through twice as much energy!
I’m still curious to see if they go through with the rumors that it’ll be subscription based. Honestly kinda dead in the water for me versus just a watch if so
Didn’t he also cheat on his wife a while back? What a piece of shit of a human being
Still really curious to find out if the rumors of it being a battery hog are true. I was set on finally upgrading my Note 20 Ultra to an S25 Ultra, but not if battery life is a mess
Honestly not too familiar with that. I imagine if they’re touting this as a new thing, FRP either does something different or was lacking compared to this in some way.
Though it is Google, they could have just killed FRP in favor of this and added messaging features like they do with everything else
For what it’s worth, they’re trying to fix that with Android 15. Not sure if this is one of the features they’ll also be back porting to older phones too like this article briefly touches on, but either way it sounds like if you factory reset the phone, it can’t be set up again unless they know your login: https://www.wired.com/story/android-15-theft-detection-lock/
Google says in a blog post, the company is adding four data protection features that can help keep your information locked down. The first stops your phone from being set up after a factory reset, unless the person knows your login details. “This renders a stolen device unsellable, reducing incentives for phone theft,” Google vice president Suzanne Frey writes.
A publicly traded company prioritizing consumer satisfaction over short term profits? Learning from their “mistakes” after they still got a shit ton of money for it anyways and probably will if they do it again? I’m not banking on it.
I’m honestly ready to not support Xbox anymore after this. They’ve been non-stop fumbling the ball with game releases this generation. Hi-Fi Rush was the first game that came out that I felt was phenomenal and such a breathe of fresh air, and they just straight killed the studio anyways. Killing studios that make good games is not how you foster a gaming platform people want to be part of.
But you can literally buy a cheap android phone for less than this device that does everything it does (and might do some day), maybe even better. Why buy a strange and unfamiliar form factor, when most people are comfortable with a smartphone already? They can just choose not to interact with anything other than the assistant if they really want to, and still be better off.
I hope something significant happens because of this, but somehow I just see Apple walking away with a slap on the wrist before continuing to engage in anti-consumer practices like nothing happened
Genuinely, this is the best news I’ve heard in a while for the reasons you listed. Apple is already fucking up the phone industry with anti-consumer policies that become industry trends. I shudder to imagine how deeply and irrepairably they would have fucked up the car market for consumers.
Bro I remember seeing the original picture posted in 2003
Call me when they somehow fit this on an SD card in another 10 years
May not be entirely what you’re looking for, but my immediate thought is Max0r. His editing style is so insane that I regularly wonder when the mental institute is going to be coming back for him
I’m hoping this means more exposure for Hi-Fi Rush and more odds for a sequel. I loved that game to death
Don’t worry, every Hyundai comes pre-installed with anti-theft features in the form of premature engine failure!

Oh cool, good to see the power button is still on the other side of the fucking menu. You know, the thing that I’m clicking on 90% of the time I’m opening the Start Menu? Why have that easily reachable like in past versions of Windows? Silly me I guess.
