Luckily I live out where nobody rings my door bell :)

Unless it changed recently if you already have 3rd party cameras, it's all but useless for any of those features. I am using Blue Iris/amcrest cameras and when I upgraded to a UDMP I was excited to try it with the new 3rd party camera support, but I can't really do anything but record. No detection stuff. Ended up only adding one camera and giving up.

And their cameras, are damn expensive. I have 6 cameras outside covering most of my house. Entireity, swapping over to unifi ones is not in the budget.

If true, that's depressing

Not this guy. I'm ok with one less subscription.

It was 86° here... Crazy

I know JBL has wifi enabled bt speakers that would be an all in one. You'd still need your phone to initiate it. But being wifi it should be fine to walk away after starting the stream.

Any assistant (assuming they're still available) would be able to play music at night (a used Google mini) or similar.

We were building our house when my wife was pregnant, I put ceiling speakers in all the bedrooms so that is what we used. I built a diy whole house audio system which we did use to play sounds/music at night in my kids room.

I'll be waiting by the mail for my piece of that pie.

Which in turn creates a self fulfilling prophecy that they created themselves.

And I also wonder, will it only allow app installs from the app store like they're supposed to be doing on Android for phones?

Or they figure those remaining can take up the slack

If I cannot fight with my representation, I will fight with my wallet. Cancelled my Disney+/Hulu/ESPN+ account yesterday.

That totally looks safe

The tremendously terrible times.

 

Was hoping this would sort itself out, but after a couple weeks it's still there. Scrolling not always smooth, and swiping back from a post is always very studdery.

Wondering if others are experiencing this? Phone is 2 weeks old, came from a Pixel 7 Pro which didn't have this problem.

 

cross posting my own post here. Just realized there's two googlepixel communities. Just an FYI. Peak Design did acknowledge my email them, but no updates from them.

Have been using a P7P and PD case for quite a while now, we moved over to the PD ecosystem because we have both Android and Apple phones in the house and I wanted a way we could all just put our phones into a car mount and charge without having multiple wires.

I have an amazon dual charge wireless stand that is 'Made for Google' whatever that means. I use it to charge my P7P w/PD Every Day case, and my Pixel Buds.

I received my P8P PD Everyday case Monday, and yesterday I wanted to put it on the stand to charge it up a bit. Set it on there and after a bit noticed a red flashing light. It was NOT charging the phone. Tried placing it again, same issue.

As it turn out, the P8P case must have changed enough to cause some issues.

P7P + PD Case works fine P8P Naked works fine P8P + $13 amazon magsafe TPU case works fine P8P + PD case does not work.

I sent them an email yesterday with details, but buyer beware.

*Edit: One other thing about the PD case, is the camera bump protection (lip that is taller than the camera) seems like it's smaller. The P7P lip isn't huge, but the amazon TPU case covered a large part of the bump completely which would create a lot more protection. *

Stand:

Amazon case that works with stand.

 

I normally don't upgrade to the next series, but with trade-in,and pixel watch 2 deal I decided why not

While I didn't particularly love the curved P7P screen it did give you more desktop real estate. The 8s screen feels a tad squished in. Everything on screen is a bit smaller. I don't hate that but it's a surprise.

I just got my Peak Design case so I can use my PD mounts (motorcycle primarily). The case seems decent however, much like my opinion of the P7P case, I think it could use slightly more lip to protect the screen and camera bump. The screen lip is probably fine if you don't run a glass screen protector, adding that thickness really reduces the lip.

Otherwise, I have only really spent time setting it up, not much time using it yet :).

 

Just saw this in "all" and thought I'd share.

FCC vs. Miami (self.fccincinnati)
 

I cannot believe that ending... we played amazing, we did everything right, but apparently Miami can't lose now. Just absolutely gutted after that effort.

At least Kubo scored. Personally I think he should start instead of Boupendza.

 

With such a strong lineup, I was really disappointed in their showing, or lack of showing tonight against the crew.

Hope they put this behind them quickly because obviously, Miami is on fire and Wednesday is not gonna be easy.
