This opens the door for more, as well. It means breaking the reliance on CUDA. Meta originally developed PyTorch and it's still a large contributor. This means more resources will go into open backends instead of CUDA.

No no, you misunderstood. Everyone gave their explicit consent by clicking "agree" to the 80-page terms of service!
These are not "normal" tablets, but Boox's line of ePaper-based readers are the only Android tablets that distinguish themselves sufficiently in my already-large family of devices. I've used "normal" tablets with full-color LCD/OLED displays, on both the Android and iPadOS side, but I rarely find a good use for them. I've found them to sit in an awkward space with neither the convenience of my phone, nor the utility of my laptop.
The ePaper-based tablets are ideal for reading, but I do not relegate them merely to the "e-reader" category because they allow you to install Google Play and run basically any Android app. This makes them more flexible and powerful than most e-readers.
It comes with a built-in browser optimized for monochrome, and you can also install third-party alternatives like EinkBro.
That said, it's only for advanced users, and it's not a perfectly smooth experience. Just getting Google Play running on it requires jumping through some hoops, and you will find that most Android apps simply don't work well on a monochrome display (though Boox does offer color models, I have not used them myself).
I was hoping, for example, to use my Boox tablet to play Go, but despite the fact that Go is very much a "black and white" game, most of the apps use shading and colors that look like absolute ass on a black and white display. Some of them do not properly support the 4:3 aspect ratio either. So I don't want to set unreasonable expectations here. These are niche devices.
Despite these drawbacks, I really appreciate having an ePaper device. It complements my device family (phone, laptop, etc.) in a way other tablets do not.
But then it will follow hallucinated regulations.
"no functional impact"? We clearly have very different ideas about the function of a display.
It's always something with Google, isn't it?
Interesting. Are there any other accounts on your phone that provide contacts? Maybe social media or other chat platforms? On Android you can see accounts in Settings > Passwords & Accounts (or somewhere similar; it varies a little between brands). You can also check inside your Contacts app by expanding the sidebar (again, varies by brand).
Just a thought. I don't have any other contact providers on my phone so I can't test it myself.
Please keep us posted if you get any official response or learn anything new!
Has anyone else been able to reproduce this? I just tried and was not able to.
OP, is it possible these people were in group chats you were part of?
I prefer to convord ttp manually rather than use the trext tims.
You replied as I was editing my previous comment.
They don't support that statement in any way. It's not even attributed to anyone at MS. Where did it come from?
Nothing the linked blog post suggests Microsoft was "blindsided". Where did the Axios article get that "one minute" bit from?
Key verification has been a real problem for decades, and AFAIK nobody's made a solution that is simple and effective.
I wish Apple followed these rules. So many deprecations in their man pages and developer documentation have no details at all. No idea what the supposed replacement is. No idea of the underlying reasons. No idea when it will cease to function.
This is why I still see "launchctl load" everywhere. It's been deprecated for years, but the replacements are overcomplicated and not clearly communicated in official docs. When Apple finally pulls the plug, so much shit out there is going to break.
When they deprecated python2, they withheld implementation details and any timeline. Then they finally axed it in a freaking minor point release, without even replacing it with python3. AAAAAAH
