For Samsung at least, tapping the dot will tell you what’s accessing what. I can’t confirm if it works on other flavors of Android unfortunately.

Pull open quick settings and tap the dot.

What does this mean?

Yeah but soon they’ll be automatically grouped together into something that looks like folders

My bad, I got whooshed

From the linked article:

One interesting thing about it is that clicking on an icon instantly launches the app, without opening the folder.

The sidebar looks like it’s dedicated to phone access?

Just Jellyfin and modded Minecraft right now. Nothing super interesting, but great fun.

I’m using SSH to interact with the Minecraft server in tmux, and the web interface for Jellyfin.

Thank you that’s definitely something to consider! I’ve had opportunities to use the Quest 3 at this point but not the Index yet. I’ve used other fresnel lens headsets in the past like the Vive and Quest 2, but neither has that kind of FOV.

I was very impressed by the way the pancake lenses can keep the entire image in focus instead of having to find the sweet spot and stare straight ahead into it, but an extra 20° of FOV is going to definitely make me question which I value more. I’ll have to find a place to try the Index so I can see.

But how is the actual quality better than the Quest 3? That’s the part I don’t understand.

What about the Index is an improvement over the Quest 3 in terms of quality? Looking up the specs, the Quest 3 seems to be handily beating the Index, a 5 year old headset. Pancake lenses alone are such a massive jump in visual clarity that it’s hard to consider buying a headset that still uses fresnel lenses.

I would agree with you if we were comparing the Index against the Quest 2 for sure, but the Quest 3 sets quite a high bar.

Why would it? It’s just an android device. LG didn’t brick all their smartphones when they pulled out of that market.

SMS is still expensive in other countries, internet access is cheap and WhatsApp is free. For example, it’s the only way my mom can keep in contact with her family in South America.

And 60% of Azure is running Linux lol

The .com of my last name is taken by an actual business. Fine, no issue there. The .net of my last name however is being squatted on by Hover, who seems to have done the same with tons of last name domains and are selling email addresses on them in the form of firstname@lastname.net. The .org of my last name is currently redirecting to the .xyz of my last name, which looks like a family’s personal website that lists their address and phone number as a header at the top of the page.

This was the plot to an episode of iCarly

I got the Surface Pro X a few years ago purely for battery life, performance be damned. Great decision, and it fit my use-case perfectly. Maybe a little too perfectly for Qualcomm, because I have no reason to upgrade to something more performant when all I cared about was the battery life.

Edit: This recent push towards Windows on ARM is also benefiting these old WOA devices. Programs that would barely run before (because they were compiled for x86 and had to be emulated on a chip that could hardly handle all that extra overhead) are now getting native ARM version releases that run way better. In my experience, my Pro X’s performance has effectively been improving as time goes on, so I have even less of a reason to get anything new.

Call me crazy but hoping for two innocent astronauts to die on the off-chance things improve isn’t something I would consider morally gray.

The people in every one of these Starliner threads seemingly hoping for the worst case scenario to occur just so they can dunk on Boeing for it are disturbing

Google Domains because I have a Google account and buying a domain on it was easy when I needed it. I’m still on Google Domains but you’ve reminded me I need to continue the transfer to Cloudflare before I get forced over to Square Space because they don’t support Dynamic DNS.
