Number 1 rule of digital services: don't buy digital goods from someone whose core competency is not that product
i.e. don't buy TV shows/movies from your game console maker

All these new AI features, but all I want is motion photos with sound on Google Pixel #GoogleIO
I don't understand why tech reviewers haven't mentioned that the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra now supports motion photo capture _after_ the shutter!
(and I really wish Google would put in a proper motion photo feature on the Pixel - top shot doesn't work 60% of the time, and also doesn't capture sound)

I am impressed by how much that "immi" "healthy ramen" in notchicken flavor smells exactly like mildew-covered tents
like, go camping, get your tent wet, roll it up and shove it in the tent-sack, forget about it for three months, then open it back up
the faint salty flavor doesn't help

immi "Chicken" Cup Ramen might be the worst food product that I've ever purchased
For some reason, they've decided to make noodles out of pea protein - it has a repugnant odour both as it cooks and as you eat it, and has the texture of wet cardboard
Do not recommend (was on sale at Whole Foods)

If there's one thing I miss from my previous phones after switching to the Pixel 9 Pro, it's audio in motion photos (aka. "Top Shot" on the Pixel phones).
C'mon @madebygoogle.bsky.social, can we get that in a future upgrade please? 🙏 #Pixel9

Interesting choice by Netflix - slightly delay the live telecast so that the subtitles more closely match up to the audio for the commentary #TheNetflixSlam
