Yep. More accurate reading by it “feeling” your finger instead of “seeing” your finger.

Nominal upgrade but an upgrade none the less.

A lot more benefit comes from how fast the software can detect you trying to unlock your phone, waking the phone, enabling the thumbprint reader (sonic vs light), then decoding the print and finally waking to your home screen.

I love the feature that lets me open the phone to home screen from the phone being asleep. Just put your thumb on a black screen in the right spot and boom, already at the home screen.

Old oneplus gang! Dozens of us!

This comment is so underrated its Untersee

Absolutely. 2020 made me wildly apathetic towards humanity. I’ve decided to move onto optimistic nihilism instead lol.

I’ll play the shit out of a violin while the titanic sinks just for the laughs.

Up to their sole discretion they decide to give you between $0.01-$100, via paypal only if you allow them to collect your info and pass that info to “necessary parties”.

This is well and fine for anyone who doesnt really care about that and im sure they have better interests in line with you moreso than other companies, but figured I’d post their Terms and Conditions for those that it might affect.

I dont use paypal as its literally one of the worst ways to manage money in the US. So I’m not doing this unfortunately even though i AM voting and didn’t vote in 2020.

I audibly laughed.

Oh god. Thinking about how they dont even HAVE joints to know what the popping of them is.

The only thing in an octopus thats close is the beak.

So now i think it would make sense that when i crack my knuckles, an octopus hears the sound of a hammer breaking teeth, but inside you.

Yep same sentiment. My friend group of 4 isnt playing it. Either playing throne and liberty (f2p until bored) or last epoch/PoE. Im catching up on some single player games.

Reminds me of a mix between diablo (the old one lol) and vampire slayer. Been playing it since it was only a couple maps and it’s definitely worth it if you like vampire survivor-esqe games.

That the mouse that you cant use while you charge it?

My favorite month in the dual-year. Junetobuary.

Glad im not the only one. We’ll suffer together i guess.

Cant wait for the page where its just him in borg outfit doing the same job.

Yeah, the “let no one else use it” portion of my comment is what i meant when you say “patent owners are generally more than happy to license their tech”

I hope ford doesn’t.

And yes while patents dont grant exclusivity it gives a company the option to try and argue that a competitors version isnt novel enough. In the USA, where ford is from, patent law screwery is abounds if you have enough money. Of which Ford is backed by the US government.

Im not here to point out whether or not the patent is the issue. The problem is the spying and selling of personal data. If ford proceeds in a way that limits that exposure to the rest of car manufacturers then fantastic, even if its only in a nominal way.

I do still appreciate your refresher on how patents work though! Hope the rest of your day goes well.

Honestly good. Let no one else use that technology. Then all i have to do is not buy a ford.

That said, if you plug your phone into your car, this tech is already in place lol.

If i cant enjoy watching two middle aged men get excited about bowling a spare on a Tuesday afternoon then what are video games good for!

Yeah! Imagine how poorly it would do!

I think that last paragraph precisely summarizes the flaw in 90% of the discourse about this. People are trying to solve a problem that shouldn’t exist to need to be solved.

If you set your goal to scale the industry wayyyy back, all of a sudden it becomes sustainable again. Just like it was 10 years ago. Society based on endless growth is unsustainable and all that yeah?

What was the anaology? We’re too busy trying to figure out the best position to have sex with our own mothers instead of trying to have less sex with our own mothers?

2hrs before PathOfExile’s new season reveal livestream? Classy
