I’m on my third Pixel 7 from Google.

The other two both had severe screen separation occurring from the top-left of the display.

We never confirmed it was the battery swelling, but I can’t think of any other reason. I charge my Pixel 7 wirelessly every night.

Google replaced my phone for free both times (although I had to fight for it with multiple demanding emails).

Honestly feels like the Pixel brand is on the verge of a huge controversy if these “battery programmes” keep continuing. Let’s hope Google stopped using cheap battery suppliers these days.

Google has APIs available for other stores to support App Archiving. Obtanium Devs just haven’t gotten round to it yet.

No motive other than being sad losers who wanted the fake glory of being the one to chop down a beloved tree.

Who uses WeTransfer in 2025?

A civilised country would’ve regulated those kinds of anti-consumer practices decades ago. The heck are you lot doing?!

That’s gotta be the most American thing I’ve ever heard - your refund going through a third party who takes a 30% cut. What a joke.

because they have much more land and much less regard for the environmental and cultural history and importance of different areas?

Literally haven’t heard anything that this person did as CEO in the two years since she joined.

I’m in the UK and today I got asked whether I wanted to leave this on or not - it just notified me and asked me to confirm my consent.

So I think this article’s headline is slightly misleading - Google is actively informing users and asking them to confirm their consent.

Almost certainly being bankrolled by someone.

Even having a girl as young as 16 on there, which I don’t think was legal (age of consent is 16 in the UK but I don’t think that extends to pornography).

The Sun only stopped it in the last 15 years.

I don’t think you’re Google’s target market to be fair.

Moths are usually slow enough to catch in your hand. They’re not gonna bite so they’re pretty easy to take outside manually.

Or another trick is to use light to coerce them into another room, like a bathroom. Then leave the window open and the door shut and by morning they’ll have gone out the window.

Yep. It’s usually only people who check benchmark numbers or have an anti-Pixel bias that think Tensor is a bad CPU. The only issue I’ve really had with my 7’s CPU is thermals, which has improved with every generation (or so I’m led to believe). Even then, it’s just having a slightly warmer phone when recording videos and stuff. I’m sure it’s bad for the phone’s longevity but I’ve never noticed any throttling. I don’t play intensive games on my phone though because gaming on any phone is an awful experience.

My Pixel 7 still runs absolutely fine but I won’t lie, I am looking forward to upgrading either this year (P10P) or next (P11P)!

Almost makes sense to skip the 10 series so Google can iron out their new Tensor design, but we’ll see soon enough how it performs.

I do kinda wish we had gotten WinFS. All the “ideas” of it seemed cool, just impossible to implement without breaking every existing application.

Seriously. I’m only in my mid-thirties but I’d sign a document tomorrow if it secured my right to end myself if I’m unable to do basic things like eat, use a toilet and live without restriction.

Ok maybe not tomorrow. But I’d want to do it quick before the inevitable senility kicks in!

God I fucking love the EU. I hope the UK adopts most of these, but safe to say the EU will force the industry in a certain direction globally.

No problems whatsoever on my Pixel 7 running stock 16.

Thankfully I’m not American so have waaaay more protections from “evil corporations” than you. But you sound like you should start wearing tinfoil around your brain to stop them from reading your thoughts - I mean, why wouldn’t they if they could, right?

Google isn’t sharing your fingerprint to the government, mate. Let’s be serious.
