the only revenue stream google has is selling user data & ads. always has been, always will be
blaming everyone but themselves for years and years while coasting off the legacy of others
What an incredible distraction all of this is
Amazon is genuinely unusable since forcing their own Rufus agent. A 300LOC userscript is the minimum to get it functioning again.
Stop. Giving. Them. Your. Money.

So glad that you've made this. The metoffice redesign is crap.

Seems that sunrise/sunset are missing

Who cares. It's all theft
Agree with the sentiment but the author's brain rotten rant is projection for being part of the problem

In my case, 4.6 degraded massively over time. 5 fails the same basic tasks that I gave 4.6 yesterday. And quite frankly this low, med, high, extra, max, turbo, ultra, ludicrous nonsense is getting tiresome

It's not just new hardware, even used hard drives manufactured a decade ago have at least doubled in price. Scam Altman has effectively killed personal computing for all but the most affluent

This device would be an instant buy if it were backlit, replacing my kobo mini
just how evil can google be?
It's very convenient, I wish I could offer a worthy suggestion. The trouble in my case is that it's very sensitive and the palettes are barely in view before the page refreshes, they don't reach the center of the screen. Thanks for sharing
Very nice. My only gripe is the automatic page switching on scroll, never encountered that before and I absolutely hate it
