What do you mean “now”? Google Photos has had a photo editing feature for a very long time now

That indeed is a Bluetooth feature that supposedly makes audio quality better by only lowering the volume using the actual speaker driver instead of doing it digitally and potentially throwing away some quiet sounds. In theory, doing it this way is always better and should be preferred. In practice, many devices handle it terribly.

If you want to turn the feature off, you can enable developer options on your phone (settings -> About phone -> tap Build number a bunch of times) and turn off absolute volume. That will give you back software volume control with fine-grained adjustments.

The CPU is still Google’s Tensor, and the modem on current Pixels is already a blackbox that custom ROMs interact with using binary blobs ripped from the official ROM. There isn’t much that could get worse with this change.

Google Drive app -> New (in the bottom right corner) -> Scan. It’s not supposed to be a part of the camera app, that’s just a useful shortcut.

Yeah, stock Google voice recognition also works offline if you download the language model beforehand.

Indeed, try switching your smartphone to airplane mode and see how far your voice commands get you.

Did that (or rather disabled mobile data and WiFi, because airplane mode would still keep the WiFi on), and then I dictated this sentence after the parentheses. So Google’s voice input works offline just fine.

Or do they mean something like a smart assistant? In that case fair, but it’s not like it will work with text input either.

It is true, however, that Google Translate doesn’t do offline voice translation even if the language you’re trying to translate from is downloaded for system-wide voice recognition.

Don’t be ridiculous - this is a lab environment, they can faithfully recreate the suffering as long as the ethics committee doesn’t get notified.

That sounds like Xiaomi. The best price to performance ratio of any OEM, but at the cost of terrible software and this… experience… when you want to get rid of it.

Worth noting that not all OEMs are like this.

That’s a reasonable per-core size, and it doesn’t make much sense to add all the cores up if your goal is to fit your data within L2 (like in the article)

Please don’t pretend as if OpenSource Devs don’t constantly complain about pesky PRs😅

I soooo hope this does something funky with someone’s Lemmy client
