Wow that instance name 😂
I highly dislike Google.
However - their Calendar product is the only one that I like, and that's mainly because it can be shared easily with contacts, accessed from multiple devices, and change sound profiles on my Android automatically depending on the event. I have yet to find enough downtime to try out replacements and alternatives
A lot of people who may have previously liked Google products may have also been burned by their habit of dropping things spontaneously... R.I.P. Google Hangouts and Google Now
Edit: Gmail is also fine, but I changed to a different app on my phone so I could log into other IMAP email accounts too
Does it not backup to a computer with iTunes, the same way WhatsApp and iMessage does?
We need to know more!
Yepp this is what I meant, my bad! Thanks for the correction
I think any can be really.
A friend gives us validation, which could push us to do things we don't want in some situations.
We can also be betrayed by a friend, and our outlook on life/perspectives shift into darker territory, particularly if you are isolated and stuff...
Someone you consider to be a friend may also not have your best interests at heart, or may have a completely wrong impression of you, and may not protect you from danger when you need it most.
Despite those, IMO friends are kind of essential from a mental health perspective - we're social beings, isolation can bring out the worst in us. Whenever you come across someone that shares your values, keep them close 👍

Also worth noting some other nice free music apps also available on F-Droid:
- SimpTube (uses YouTube Music)
- Musify (uses Spotify)
- Spotube (uses Spotify, streams the actual tracks from YouTube Music or via a Piped instance)
Chonky TL;DR because I was a little annoyed that there wasn't one here -
Certainly no commercial product could ever work at a profit if you needed remote operators anything like that often. As Brooks points out, the term “autonomous” barely applies.
Beyond what Brooks pointed out, the story also notes “Those vehicles were supported by a vast operations staff, with 1.5 workers per vehicle”.
Fitting with this general vibe, a source (that in fairness, I don’t know well) just told me that his impression having visited with them not so long ago was that “they're definitely relying on remote interventions to create an illusion of stronger AI than they really have”.
if Cruise’s vehicles really need an intervention every few miles, and 1.5 external operators for every vehicle, they don’t seem to even be remotely close to what they have been alleging to the public. Shareholders will certainly sue, and if it’s bad as it looks, I doubt that GM will continue the project, which was recently suspended.
As safety expert Missy Cummings said to me this morning, remote operators could well be “the dark secret of ALL self-driving.”
Human lives at are stake.
Cruise CEO Kyle Vogt essentially confirmed that their “driverless” cars need very regular human intervention:
Yep - only if you have a tuner though, recording does not work on their built-in IPTV service
They already do, vizio sets and roku TV sets require an internet connection as soon as you power it on to set it up
