Split keyboard with double middle keys?
Not that I am aware of. However, one thing I learned is that moving to a split keyboard fixes bad typing behavior like tapping T or Y with the wrong hand very quickly.

I cannot stand these spam calls any more.
Since you have a Pixel maybe try changing the call screening settings?

Google blocked Pixel 8, Pixel 8 Pro reviewers from using popular benchmarks to test the Tensor G3 chip, new owners too - NotebookCheck
Irresponsible reporting. The app couldn't be installed because the min API version of the app didn't meet the requirements for Android 14.
Google didn't "block" anything, this is fear mongering.

Nothing is bringing iMessage to its Android phone - The Verge
Sounds like a really hacky, probably insecure, solution that Apple will likely "accidentally" break with an innocuous software update.

Incredible. I can't believe that's actually how the vote played out.

Android 15 is pulling the plug on apps built for Android Marshmallow
Good. Android 6 came out in 2015 and 98.4% of devices in use now are at or above that level.. The only reason developers would have to target an API level that low in 2024 is to exploit something.

HTC One M8: The Android GOAT, 10 Years On!
I don't really get why the M8 is remembered so fondly but the M7 isn't.
Is it just that way more people bought the M8? The M7 was truly innovative and the M8 was only a small iteration on top.

There isn't a chance in hell you're getting Gemini Nano outside of the stock ROM.

The app isn't enabled by default so stock Pixels aren't even vulnerable without physical access to an unlocked device.

TIL Minimum wage has only increased by $7.00 in 85 years in the USA.
Could be worse. 25 cents in 1938 is still only worth $5.44 today.

Huh. Well I just made motion activated lights with no motion sensor. Quite pleased with myself.

feature where the screen turns on when the camera detects motion.
Using a camera as a motion sensor doesn't count as not using a motion sensor IMO.

We heard you like toggles so we put a toggle in your toggle.

It's not an assumption. They obviously have telemetry that shows the vast majority of people never turn Bluetooth or WiFi off.

Why is it a deal breaker? Synthetic benchmarks don't mean anything. The real world experience of using a Pixel is faster/smoother.

2023.10: New looks and more tile card features!
I've given it some time, but I just don't like the new logo. I don't really understand the need to make it so simple that it no longer really resembles anything.

The UI strings make it pretty clear this is an option the user can choose.

Google officially responds to Android 14 loss of data access and boot loop bug

It probably wasn't reported. I'd wager the percentage of devices with multiple profiles (that doesn't include Android for work) is probably very small.
