switchable options in the settings, the way samsung does it on their phones, you want to preserve your battery, you can limit your CPU's performance to 70%. You want maximum performance, we made a performance mode available so that you can enjoy your device to the fullest.

ah yes, this one feature was done in the 90's with a dedicated unit 8x the size of the products we're talking about, therefore it could be done with marginal space now. rock solid theory here

But really though why doesn't any of these smart speakers support lineout and hooking up to a proper hifi

I bet it would be really helpful to filter out voice commands from advertisements and videos too if the smart speaker knew about the audio going through your surround receiver
idgi, how does line out help it know

the one apple watch complaint i don't get is about wrist wake, just turn it off and mash buttons if you find the look-at-my-watch gesture so mortifying?

given the choice between an iot blood glucose meter and one that just integrates with your phone/watch/ipad, i'd definitely prefer the one that doesn't go directly on the internet

friend of mine has one embedded in his abdomen that syncs to a watch complication

part of not having to think about it is having consistent cues to what is and isn't interface, a color is one way to do that

imo we've gone way too far into "chromeless" ui with phones, too many hidden things behind swipes, long presses, etc. with no hint to the user that this is the case

tbh the twitter "hint" that you should swipe to browse through a moment always throws me off, making me think i swiped when i didnt

when i was working with universal studios, one of the execs complained at length about folks just jamming UNIVERSAL into gps and ending up at their backlot security entrance, gumming up the line and delaying him from getting to work

then 5 minutes later extolling the virtues of waze, "it takes me thru neighborhoods! i avoid traffic magically by just doing exactly what it says and never second guessing it!"

what i really want is a gps app that shuts the gently caress up and only gives me directions when i ask for them, because i really don't need step by step instructions for how to turn into my own driveway. surely siri or w/e could do that? like it knows where i'm going and i can just ask "is this my exit" if i'm not sure

my favorite part of this is taking the natural language processing and moving it from one chunk at the beginning, potentially in a parking lot or otherwise safe and not moving, and smearing it out across the entire drive with the added bonus of road noise and distracting the driver
