What are some (somewhat exotic) smart wearables that are NOT shit? I don't mind a subscription but it has to be worth it.

Feel free to suggest wearables in the following categories but from what I've seen, in each category the most popular brand has a scammy business model :

>Smart wristbands

>Whoop 5.0
You pay $400 once for the device (which is probably just as good as any other wristband of the same price range) and then it's $30 per month to use their "algorithms" to get insights into your health metrics.
You're basically paying a company to exploit your health data.


>Smart rings

>Oura 4.0
Has shit battery life compared to competition, ring in itself is nothing really special and is also subscription based.

>Smart watches
screens are just big enough to show weather radar/ maps/ typical phone notifications
but also the additional sensors like heart rate/ skin temp/ o2/ motion/ecg/ blood pressure
most batteries will last two days

probably the best every day wearable
apple or samsung are obvious leaders but google and garmin are definitely still good options

Anyone know a good case with the magsafe feature and magsafe battery bank that would fit a Flip 5? Finding myself in situations where im not that close to an outlet during work and need something a tad more portable without the hassle of wires. I'm still taking a spare USB-C cable with me with my charging block when it the chance to use them does appear though.

I like my Pitaka case with my S25 Ultra, it has magnets but I've never used them. Stupidly got rid of my 25W 2M magsafe puck and magsafe wallet when I got rid of my iPhone. I hear it fucks with the S-pen though, but only when something is attached but that hasn't come up for me and shouldn't be a concern on the Flip 5. Also looking on their site it doesn't look like the two cases they currently offer for your phone have magnets.

I usually just use my power bank and cord anyway, with a folding wall adapter also in my bag for when I'm near an outlet.

>i-if oems just preinstalled linux...
We tried the preinstall experiment multiple times in the mid- to late-2000s. It went as well as you'd expect. 50% return rates weren't uncommon.
Then Windows 7 arrived, and genocided the OEM Linux market. It's one of those "look back and laugh" moments in tech history.

He should have bought the 2000$ scam phone just for laughs. In any case, linux phone on the oneplus is probably the best alternative for now until someone makes a secure version of Lineage or COO/Oxygen just to avoid having to buy a pixel for graphene. Even for linux, 4 GB is simply too little, unless you just want a texting machine(which in all honesty that’s what most people want anyway)

his OP6T in his video is a 7 years old phone which has 8GB RAM 256GB storage variants, from 2018...
whatever tf happened to mobile phones today is absolutely insane, both for price and hardware requirments for handheld slop needs which cannot possibly match a fucking PC. there's no fuckin justification for >8GB RAM there's no fucking way unless the slop is specifically designed/unoptimized so it pushes you into buying higher spec shit so your windows still open in a reasonable time. whatever tf is happening is surely a scam, phone apps cannot possibly require those resources it's just not real it's a scam they have sleep statements or something
>>
>>106527873
Well, that was my point. Linux phone isn’t the reason we need more than 4 GB, but anything that we could probably get to run on it will easily chew through more than 4 GB. I agree with you, it’s indian developers , trillions of trackers and what not… but the point still stands.

I don't use AI because it's bad for the environment. Even if there were a service that provably uses 100% clean energy (there isn't), the water usage by the cooling systems is unacceptable.

>The power grid isn't an on-demand thing
It is to an extent, actually. Load-following and peak power plants spin up additional turbines to balance load to match demand.
There's always SOME power generation happening, but the output and fuel use is not consistent throughout a single day, nevermind a week.

I think the average question consumes 6 gallons of water for cooling purposes. Due to risk to water availability, AI will be used exclusively by the rich. It was never the people's technology and dystopia has been here for decades.

I have to ask my artist friend what pad she uses.
She is willing to make the leap software wise since she hates photoshop.

Only deal breaker would be "my tablet doesn't work" and i am uncertain how much she'd be willing to buy a new tablet.

But if it works Bazzite w. KDE is right up her ally since KDE feels like it could have been a new version of windows that didn't suck.

its in fact easier to use than on windows because libwacom is a dependency for many default packages (wayland, xorg, many des to include kde and cinnamon) so she can just plug and play like it's a mouse or keyboard. libwacom isnt just for wacom tablets either; it works for huion, xp-pen and the like. it even comes with a replacement "wacom center" for configuring her setup.
tl;dr it should just work out of the box.

If you can afford around 6
$60 a year buy 2 domain names (a personal one and a spam one) and use a service like fastmail. Once you own a domain, you own every email address under it and can add and delete as you please. You also get the benefit of de-googling your life and have a professional email domain. Most email providers allow multiple domains, so your spam bullshit and real domain name can live under one license
>>
>>106529416
thats interesting, but what im doing is trying to see if sites like smoremail/mailbait till work for sending spam emails
