Strange Bug Causes Google Now To Randomly Praise The iPad

You think those are bad? Try the WP version of voice recognition, oh my god. It'll tell you everything BUT the thing you asked for. :laugh:

Has always worked great for me (and the WP8 version has much improved voice synth).

don't have a samsung so :p I don't buy crap phones with the worst optimized software/OS that requires you to use twice as powerful hardware to get android to run as good as a properly optimized software from a proper manufacturer.

But they have the best hardware, can be easily rooted, and have the best support for custom roms.

best hardware spec wise perhaps, actual build quality hardware, not so much, and why would I need the hardware in a SGSIII over the hardware in an xperia S ? it doesn't do anything faster or better, it only uses a little more power(well a lot more due to Samsungs ****ty programing), the only advantage is in slightly prettier games, for the 3 games that actually supports it.

Your device is not better because you own it. Deal with that.

The world is turning and you have a beautiful, but outdated hardware.

You also have to deal with that and stop bashing the best smartphone in the market, only because it is Samsung. You gotta deal with that too. :)

Samsung improved A LOT in programming.

Yikes, Samsung must've said some pretty nasty stuff to HawkMan's mom or something. Unconditional hatred for an entirely family of devices he doesn't even apparently use? Wow. I mean, unless his opinion is entirely based on assimilating the opinions of others instead of actual, you know, data.

I could make very similar negative remarks about Sony products, which have gone steadily downhill in consumer satisfaction ratings over the years, and only seem to sell to middle aged Japanese shoppers who never go any further than the Vaio table at Best Buy.

But stereotypes are bad, m'kay?

When did I say it was better because I owned it. I bought it because it offered better actual use performance, and better battery time, and better manufacturer support. AND it was cheaper as well.

Now where you going to come with any actual arguments, or just throw ad hominems ?

It's not like I possibly, you know, actually sell and support these samsung devices you know...

I never said they where bad, just that they're overprices for what they are and highly under optimized. it's a good phone, but they're all made form cheap plastic and don't offer the real world performance they should, combined with pretty bad official support.

As for Sony, well, the Sony phones are actually rapidly increasing in sales, taking on Samsung quickly, both due to better support and software optimizations, and more appealing design and phones that feel a lot more solid when customers check them at the stores, better screens, better cameras, and the fact they are actually listening to consumer demands, and are offering not only mid end phones, but also their high end devices as weather and water proof versions.

Do you really think you're being coherent, or making sense? We're not that naive, ya know.

Do you even have a point or argument or are you just trolling, you're not the only one not naive.

please, if you're going to post, at least give an argument or don't bother. contribute an actual argument, I believe this is neither the first, second or third time I've told you to actually give argument and not just throw ad hominems and statements of no purpose into a discussion.

Pot calling kettle black. You're probably one of the biggest trolls on the forum and you clearly ignore people's points or posts entirely that prove you wrong.

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval by David Uzondu Image via @realDonalTrump (X) As OpenAI prepares the release of its next model, GPT 5.6, the White House has instructed the company to limit the distribution of the software to a small group of government-approved partners instead of the general public, as it has done with previous releases. According to The Information, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman sent an internal memo to staff on Thursday explaining that the federal government will approve access "customer by customer" during an initial preview phase. Altman noted in the communication that this restrictive rollout is "not [their] long-term model" for software deployment, and the company plans to work toward a "more sustainable" distribution method later. CNN said that both OpenAI and the Trump administration view the capabilities of GPT 5.6 on the same level as Anthropic's Mythos and that government officials intend to "collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop shared approaches for addressing the challenges of scaling this technology." The latest restriction comes just weeks after the US Commerce Department decided to restrict Fable, a version of Mythos with extra safety "guardrails" to prevent users from exploiting software vulnerabilities. Not long after the release, though, researchers at Amazon found a way to bypass these restrictions, prompting an aggressive response from federal authorities. The government ordered Anthropic to cut off access for non-US citizens located outside the US, non-US citizens living inside the US, and incredibly, even Anthropic's own foreign-born employees. Anthropic now appears to be building a workaround to resolve this compliance block with an update to its Privacy Policy that introduces a category called "Verification Data" to handle KYC and Digital IDs. This setup could mandate digital identity checks to filter users by nationality, requiring a government-issued ID and facial biometric data. Who knows? Maybe in the future, you would have to scan your US Passport or State ID to prove your citizenship before you are allowed to chat with Fable 5 (or any other model).
    • When Windows 7 was released I created an AutoHotkey script that uses Alt+` as a keyboard shortcut to move a window across monitors. I have been using that script for over 15 years and this is the first time I have come across another app that uses the same shortcut!
    • I called it last year that they wouldn't end support when they said there would. There are too many people still on Windows 10 waiting for something better to upgrade to and 11 ain't it! The recent promises of fixing Windows 11's many problems is nice, but unless they deliver on those promises in a big way then I expect customers will still want to stick with 10.
    • Full ACK. I went too far adressing your post specifically. And as you said, it up to us customers as participant of the market dynamic as it happens to decide whether we spend our money on a product or not. The responsibility is to the company. In case of this price hike one could assume that MS is expecting or even starting to see a new interest in XBox hardware so they want to avoid losses per unit sold. I find it fair enough that they granted a period in which everyone interested could grab a unit for the current price (Amazon.de has a reliable stock of XBox Series X digital, which I bought last December after having sold my day one Series X a year ago). It is not that they cash up their customers starting on Monday. Cheers and let's cling to our perfectly fine hardware as long as we deem it worthy in relation to purchasing something new!
