Oops, misread the date, I read Published 11/01/2024 and in my locale it means January 😅

This review is almost one year old. (my mistake in understanding the date, I saw a German flag and assumed German date format which is DD.mm.yyyy)

Also, wonderful hardware but android 12 in 2024 for 700 euro?

Moreover, can run only a generic browser and some showelvare. Most apps in the Huawei appgallery are broken and aren’t getting updates from 3-4 years. (I know because I have a Huawei p30)

Bootloader can’t be unlocked so you’re stuck with a useless outdated os that can’t run most apps

Maybe I’d get one for €100 as a smart home display or for light internet browsing…

There are so many assholes like this that unless they’re using MailChimp or similar (cloud platforms where this can’t be done automatically) I don’t even bother with unsubscribing. I just set the mail server to bounce any email from that domain.

And also with a randomized name/logo that changes at every election, so there’s no more “i vote for that party because my family voted for them since 200 years ago, and i will still vote for them even if they want to do immoral things”

marketing needs new numbers to push new phones. New version at least once a year or there’s no reason to purchase a new phone

FIFA officials already assessed the situation with the bribe and that’s all we need to know

It’s still in alpha but hoarder is promising

It’s designed to organize bookmarks, but can also support markdown notes with picture (a single picture, not multiple pictures)

Unfortunately at the moment the mobile app is so alpha that doesn’t support creation or editing such notes, only new bookmarks or new photos.

It uses a headless chromium to make screenshots for URLs.

Optionally, can use a bullshit generator like ollama or openai api keys to automatically create a lot of useless tags to each note

It says “the video might be inappropriate for some users”. Afaik those videos never worked because they required login with Google account

Maybe they really believed that this shit was so good that nobody would ever return or even sell it to third parties in the future

I can’t believe that I watched a 30 minutes rant about puyo puyo until the end, it was interesting even if I’m on the Tetris side, sorry

Now they aren’t even using the excuse “but under the hospital there was a single Hamas member, so it warranted killing 100 kids”

TL;DR: app archiving, useless gemini shit, improvement for the 1% that own a foldable

Unfortunately the hardware is so closed that even themselves can’t reset the software for refurbishing

https://www.theverge.com/2024/8/7/24211339/humane-ai-pin-more-daily-returns-than-sales

Once a Humane Pin is returned, the company has no way to refurbish it, sources with knowledge of the return process confirmed. The Pin becomes e-waste, and Humane doesn’t have the opportunity to reclaim the revenue by selling it again.

You phone doesn’t have the low-res laser projector gimmick that is invisible in daylight, runs extremely hot and drains the battery in one hour

Whatsapp it’s blocked countrywide so it’s not going to be a problem (although I found out that some cell stations nearby tourist points aren’t blocking that)

In China is easy. Once you give some millions to tencent/Alibaba/Baidu/bytedance (or having the government force them to do so) for porting their apps, it’s all a Chinese citizen needs.

There are many apps that are actually “mini apps” (a WebView inside tencent WeChat)

When you enter China you need to register with the customs using said “mini app” in WeChat

90% of users exclusively use WeChat, alipay, Baidu, taobao, amaps, douyin (TikTok), xiaohongshu.

Maybe some could find useful to also have Weibo and pinduoduo (temu malware) but the “must have” apps are really a handful, it’s not like in the west

The fact that suddenly it went to watch a leisure website during work… did they use stolen screen recordings from human activity for training? Like if some corporation allowed them to record all the activity of their employees for training

I would have never imagined that the SOC of a high end smartphone set to release in 2026 is going to use the same process node of the SOC of a smartphone released in 2024

This is really a scoop

I went back to watch my Facebook since years and I scrolled and scrolled. 24 sponsored posts before seeing a post from someone that I knew! And it was a post from someone out of the country who did a 1 week workshop with me ten years ago (=someone that I barely know). Next post is from a schoolmate after 21 sponsored posts. Need to-scroll through another 21 sponsored posts to find another real post. Again from someone who I barely know (the teacher of that workshop where I went ten years ago)

How can people enjoy this shit? They actually enjoy watching ads?

Wow, i tried it, it’s like an Easter egg. Not only this swipe is nowhere mentioned in the UI, but it only works when applied over the digits, anywhere else on the screen makes a button press
