Moon Readers cloud sync is amazing if you read from multiple devices. I think they recently added book syncing too.

I don't know how all states operate but they have access to police reports that have your contact info. If it doesn't have your number then background reports.

These calls might be from lawyers. Check your mail and see if you are getting mail from lawyers. They are all trying to beat each other to get you to sign with them.

I wanted a Dick Tracy watch so badly. Tech just decided to skip all of that and put a screen on a watch. Boo.

Is piped or invidious working for you?

The popular servers are down. Google put some kind of limit on them. I'm going to guess bandwidth limit.

Yes. I think a huge issue is Linux doesn't handle other app activities like how Android's Intent or Broadcast does.

When I say Linux phones, I mean selling a phone with Linux already or Linux ready, not taking existing phones with Android and putting Linux on them.

Examples:
Purism Librem 5
PinePhone Pro
Pro1 X
Volla Phone X23

My guess is that we need something more appealing like the Steam Deck to make people take the step.

Hear me out! The Steam Phone®!

There are Linux phones available. I,m going to guess popularity of those devices to increase soon.

Google Wallet, formally Google Pay, formally GPay, formally Android Pay, formally Google Wallet, formally Android Wallet, does the same thing.

Switching phones and returning something was such a pain since it generated an entirely new number.

Most professional programmers, graphic artist, and designers I met use MacOS.

If it was a simple flag, you would be correct a computer will react faster than any human but when you factor in everything else like constantly analysis of surroundings, decision making, and accounting for physical limitations, then yes. It's the reason why Waymo cars move so slowly.

If a person was standing at a sidewalk, hidden behind an object, far away from a pedestrian way or traffic signal and jumps 2 feet in front of a car going 25 mph, the average driver with their full faculties would do better than Waymo.

 

However, this bug caused some DNS queries to be sent to the DNS server configured on the computer, usually a server at the user's ISP, allowing the server to track a user's browsing habits.
