You are missing the best part of that image. The fact there is an Urgent Care Hospital in the middle of all the fat burger joints. That's the real kicker! ha ha.

Thanks, I used my Pixel 8 Pro to take it. came out great.

4 months in of constant use for both of us and we LOVE these devices. They are so far ahead of what our iPhones were in imaging, display and overall use. We are extremely happy with them, and the wife said she's never going back to apple again! Woot. A win for me!

Update on the iPads. My wife has moved hers on. She didn't use it or like it. I am going to move mine on as well. We are waiting until the new Surface devices with arm are released and grabbing two of those. I don't like any OS besides windows so having my tablet run windows will be refreshing. Plus, with bluestacks, it's an android tablet anyways. I run stacks on my dell and it works great. Once you turn off all the ad crap for games I don't play, it functions just as my Samsung tablet does. Too bad MS never got on board with Google and used subsystem correctly.

I do not trust asus as far as I can throw them. They screwed me royally when I had my 3 vivotab RTs back in the day. Warranty and customer service means nothing to them.

This is from my back garden...

Not a problem. I have nothing to hide. So it's all good with me. Conspiracy theorists are a funny breed. They latch on to every wackadoodle thought on the net. Fun to read, not so much to interact with since they believe their bull. Hence the ignore function.

Lovin' the pixels. So nice to be out from the ecosystem. Just throttled back our Apple one sub too. Screw giving them more money for less service. Readly is cheaper and has 100 times the magazine publications than news plus. We have no need for apple fitness anymore and moving to a free service available on Roku for workout routines and using fitbit and others for health metrics tracking. Saving 25 bucks a month doing it this way now.

Back to Phone Link, I am loving the functionality with it and my P8P. Sharing phones with MrsKojack, messaging from my two PCs, and easy connectivity without fighting with it all the time, is great. A great app for every other device except iPhone.

I think they are going to push the court case if this fails. Apple got screwed once this week, time for another go!

I think the charging for the service was the "bait". They knew Apple would go "nuclear", as steve would say and shut it down right away. Therefore, getting government involved because of the DMCA act law that states reverse engineering is allowed for purposes of interoperability. I think that Eric has a good case. Beeper mini was no different than if I had an iPhone and connecting to their server. That's the point they are going after. It's going to get interesting. As for the revenue, Eric has millions of dollars. He started pebble which Fitbit purchased for 23 million dollars, I am sure he invested ALOT of that and is now quite wealthy from it. The purchase was in 2017, so he had lots of time to grow his wealth.

As far as been reported there is a dma law that states if something is reverse engineered for the purpose of interoperability between platforms etc, it's not illegal. Beeper knew of this law and I think that is why they did what they did. They know that law can and more than likely will be upheld. Beeper = chess. Apple = checkers.

I have ordered over a dozen Dell systems in the past few years and never noticed where any were shipped from. I bought the "in stock" models that appealed to me since I was upgrading them myself. Next one I am going to see where it came from. I am currently debating a surface laptop or an xps 13 for the wifey for our work moving forward.

I work both from home and the local bell store part time. Soon home full time. We have our businesses up and running now, just a matter of time. I have no issues with my phone connecting with any network etc since I have been using it.

Just tried my Ai phone assistant. It's awesome.. Thanks google for blocking unwanted calls. What a great feature

We have no issues with ours at all dropping connections etc. Our iphones were Constantly dropping Bluetooth, apps and lte signal. These are rock solid.

Ok, now that is taken care of and I cannot see any comments from ai guy anymore. My wife and I have been using our phones for 24 hours we are both blown away with the newfound capabilities of the pixels. They are miles ahead of the iphone now. iPhones are stale and boring. No new features for years and just meh now. The pixel lineup is awesome with the AI assistant, recorder features, cameras which are second to none right now and overall fluidness of the phone we are 100 percent happy with our purchases.

Again. I do not care. Apple is exactly like the rest. They just cloak it in marketing bs. I don't care.

Apple are no better. Our pixels are awesome. all that matters. The worlds needs LOTS bigger things done than to worry about what freaking phone you use. I am not getting into that here.

We got our phones setup with the basics. I love it. The wifey has not tried hers yet as she had to scoot out after I did the data transfer. I am working on getting hers setup with the Microsoft launcher etc now. First impressions are AWESOME. So much better than our iPhone's.

If you visit, I can take you to some great places!

I live in Seafood heaven. Best fish and chips in the world! Best seafood in the world actually. Lobster from here is better than any other place!

Thanks! Would have been gone years ago. Tried earlier this year to get her into a coral 7a to try out. I am just happy to be moving away from apple's garden of hell. Crappy iOS updates, lack of anything like a new feature, bugs and OS glitches, Just all around poor experience. Not what apple was back when we had our 6s'ssssss.

Mine too. I wanted to get out of apple for a long time. Only thing is we have 2 ipad 10th gen, and two apple watch 8s we are paying off through work for the next year and a half. D'OH. I had to convince the wifey to get the pixel. What tipped her over the edge is the recorder summarize function. We bought the google silicone cases in the colors of our phones. We also ordered spiegn screen and camera protectors. I am looking at the two boxes here wanting to set them up but I dont want to drop them either ha ha.
