Personally I love it. Being able to boost results from some sites while depriotizing or even banning others has been real helpful. Not having unrelated “sponsored” content cluttering up the results is certainly nice as well. The results themselves feel like Google from ten years ago, relevant and on point.

I just went through this. I ended up getting lucky and my brother gifted me a sleep number and I got a latex topper for it. It’s worked out great.

If I had to do it again though, I would get a good quality spring mattress. That way I can flip and rotate it to avoid any sagging. I’d probably shoot for a little firmer than what I would normally go for and then sleep on it for a couple weeks. Then I would get a latex topper and choose softness level depending on how much softer I feel like the bed needs to be.

Hybrids are nice, but you can’t flip them and you read all kinds of complaints about sagging with them. By doing it this way you can extend the life of the mattress greatly by flipping and rotating it. A good topper can really transform a bed. I got sleep on latex as they seemed to be well regarded on the mattress subreddit. No regrets at all.

And if in doubt when buying the spring coil, go a little more firm. It is easier to soften a bed with a topper than to try to make one more firm.

That’s going to be my approach next round anyway. Good luck on your path, mattress shopping can be confusing and most YouTube reviews seemed to be nothing more than sponsored commercials for each brand.

That’s real cool! Ever comes to the states I’d take a hard look at it.

Fucking A. I hate using Googles shitty messaging app, and maybe I would have more than 2 other rcs users in my contacts if the 3rd parties could implement it.

You make some valid points. But they pertain to your own experience. Their post is just as valid, because someone asked him why he was thinking about switching and he gave his own experience. Also a valid point for his own view. It’s an opinion after all.

To say you haven’t experienced the problems are well and good, but to trivialize his points down to “user error” was kind of dickish.

I can relate to the comment. Within the last month Google messages has required me to resync my tablet app several times. Fixing that required logging out all devices and changing the login method. Speaking of messages, the tablet app is… Not very good. Messages take a long time to notify there, well after my watch, and when I open the app the message still takes a couple seconds to show up as it is apparently retrieving the message from the phone app. Even though the message is (still) shown in the notification. Reading messages on the tablet don’t clear the read receipt on the phone. Various random bugs seem to popup. On the phone I randomly get pictures or messages I had written to OTHER PEOPLE waiting to be sent. Google messages is king of a shit app and I greatly miss Textra and even Samsung Messages. Thank you Google for not opening the RCS API to third parties.

But that’s just messages. Googles auto fill service has sucked from day one. Often I will click a username or password multiple times trying to get the popup to show up. I’ll then sigh, go open Bitwarden, copy my password, go back to the app, click on the password field, and then… the fucking auto fill popup appears. This experience has been shit from day one and Google has never made any attempt to fix it that I can see.

Android Autos new split screen is nice. But every once in a while the maps side will become unresponsive. Or the media app just dissapears and I have a black in its place. Only way to fix that is to unplug the phone and plug it back in. Super fun driving down the road.

I really could go on and on… Google has a habit of dumping random features in the OS and then never bothering to update again as they go on to their next shiny feature like the dog from the movie Up when someone yells squirrel. Apple users may be smug with their “just works” mantra, and they are not immune to bugs like any software developer, but it really does seem to be a more polished experience devoid of issues like the above. It’s also a lot more boring… but I can understand why someone would make a switch. Attributing another person’s issues to user error because you THINK the android experience is flawless seems rather snarky.

Yeah seems like ignorance or maybe he got so held up on trying to make the best decision possible that he got into decision paralysis. It happens to all of us at some point. But fucking 10 years. At least the money is still there and hopefully this will get something rolling.

It’s all out there in the public filings. It’s not a matter of taxes, the issue is they haven’t made ANY charitable donations at all since 2014 despite publicly claiming they were. He may have not been aware of it for some time, but even after he said he discovered it he kept making public claims that his all the money was going to charities.

The money has just been sitting in an account paying administrative fees. The good news is most the money is still there and he has an opportunity to make it right.

I don’t know, this is something that might be cool. But I’m not spending any significant amount of money on a Google project the way they cancel them on a whim. Good luck to them though.

Stable volume will be very nice if it works. Always jarring and annoying when you get that youtuber that plays an intro with blaring music and bass and then follows it up practically whispering his content.

Add in sponsors that some ass holes throw 2-3 in a video (FU LTT) and I don’t know how people watch YouTube with ads. It sucks so bad.

I do pay for premium, but use smart tube on my android tv box and it feels so good when it rolls right past them.

Hopefully they figure something out. In the Verizon CDMA days changing phones SUCKED. Knowing Verizon, watch for bullshit service fees anytime you have to use their website to swap esims. Future ain’t necessarily bright.

Adam Conover just did a video on mega mergers and Ticketmaster was prominently featured. I thought it was pretty well done, but hope you like the guy because he takes his personality to 11 on this one.

Fuck these monopoly fucks.
