The phone seems to be largely what everyone expected, though the ability to change lighting during post processing looks like an interesting feature.

Honestly, the thing that stood out the most on this page was that they were using Quibi to show off the screen. Paid product placement?

Same and definitely paid.

Seems like a dumb move on Google's part to associate with a brand that is largely unknown and on (already) on life support.

For me, the thing that stood out where the 24 footnotes. The rest looked more like a normal smartphone. Wow, it can create a hotspot, but wait: it also supports wireless charging...

I am a bit confused that those features are being promoted in 2020 when my S3 from 2012 also has those abilities. Maybe it's just the promotion, but it doesn't really feel like a phone that I must buy.

I don't think they've done a good job of phrasing it, but the pixel 5 supports "reverse wireless charging", allowing other wireless devices to charge off of it.

Sadly other "wireless" devices, sadly not other phones.

I don't think this is accurate. I clicked through the footnote from the Google store page and found this, https://support.google.com/pixelphone/answer/10107702?p=wire.... Which includes phones.

Contrary viewpoint: I actually really enjoy Apple's chiclet keyswitches, and I think my dream keyboard is a wireless chiclet Ergodox.

Kailh has their Choc switches which are low profile. Not quite chicklet but fills the same role for the most part. Low-pro lovers seem to like them quite a bit.

When an app is uploaded to the app store, it is compiled for every different device separately. You likely have a higher resolution phone/device than the OP, so there's more image data on your version

I've noticed a differing pattern in our app: usually the newer devices (11 Pro Max) have a smaller foot print than older devices (iPhone 7 Plus) [1]

Not sure what causes this.

Exactly. Older iPhone 6S here, showing 2.1 MB

This mirrors my experience, FreeCAD is practically new user hostile and horrifically buggy. I'm very inexperienced and had really only used Autodesk Inventor and Fusion360 previously, but FreeCAD was like moving from modern Photoshop to an early version of Gimp

Call of Duty Warzone is free, the referenced stat was for last years COD title.

As somebody who really enjoys the enter key position, I've found I struggle to go back to standard layouts. Having a thumb cluster with more important keys makes far more sense than having thumbs that effectively only press spacebar or cmd/super. The keyboard wasn't designed with programmers in mind, or web browsers. Ergonomically, moving a few keys around makes sense, even at the expense of a bit of muscle memory.

For what it's worth, you'll eventually have complete muscle memory and be able to switch back and forth without even thinking. It's liberating to try out different layouts and see what ends up making sense for you over time.

Care to share it? The one I have will work for a few switches, then both Windows/Mac will eventually stop recognizing the port its connected to until a reboot.

I have been using one from IOGEAR (SKU GUS432CA1KIT) for the last 6 months and I haven't had a single problem with it.

I use it to switch all of my peripherals (keyboard, mouse, wireless headset dongle, webcam, and mixer) between my desktop and my MacBook several times per day and have not had a single failure yet.

One I use is a brand called "Plugable". I don't think they still make the model I have, but they have a newer version of the same: https://plugable.com/products/usb3-switch2

I've used it with Windows 10, MacOS and an RPi, with no issues.

It's less of a literal concept and more of a figurative one. The factory floor would certainly be fully lit.

If you'd prefer to think of it as 'X company will give you 40 more minutes of leisure per day' or however much you cook, it's probably the closest financial approximation you can get.

Another way to calculate it would be to try and figure out what you would pay for another 40 minutes in a day, but that starts getting very subjective very quickly.

Perhaps the Ipad Slack app running as native? I think we're going to see Catalyst improve the MacOS experience greatly.

Have you tried the JIRA native app, ported from iOS?

It's horrible. It's fast, unlike the web app, but otherwise horrible
