Alaska’s healthcare system kinda works like that, but only for Alaska Natives.

I’m admittedly not much of a networking expert, but you might be able to improve your existing network by running Ethernet backhaul for your mesh network (assuming your access points support it).
Regarding whether you would benefit from a router like that: I’ve only got a 25Mbps connection, so my main use case for it is using ZeroTier to access various services on my local network, more advanced firewall controls, and the dual 2.5G Ethernet ports for connection between my main PC and home server.
I recently switched from my ISP’s combo device to a GL-inet Flint 2 (https://www.gl-inet.com/products/gl-mt6000/);;) no complaints with it thus far, and I’ve enjoyed some of the quality of life features it’s got built into it.
Fedora Server, with most of the services I need running via Docker.
Unlocked, brand new direct from the Google Store. They emailed me a coupon code for being on the Google Assistant mailing list that gave me an extra $150 off, and it stacked with a $100 discount they were already running (so $250 off total). I’m a self-admitted headphone jack enthusiast, but the price was just too good to pass up.
Just got a Pixel 8 (256 GB) for $510 a few weeks ago. I’m good with that, thanks.
Well, looks like I’m avoiding updates on my Pixel 8 for a while.
I have to say, I was really impressed by how well the Pixel 7a did. At $400 now, that’s a great (somewhat) cheap option for folks, though I do wish its battery life was a bit better…
I’ve got a Pixel 8 non-Pro on the way, so I’m excited to see how it performs compared to my old Galaxy S9 :P
At this point, I’d honestly be fine with that too. Unfortunately it looks like one of the only ones around that has two USB-C ports is the Asus ROG Phone 7 & 7 Ultimate, which both already have a headphone jack too, lol.
I’d love to see those features in phones today; all of those are basically dead in the US market (Xperia 1 V gets two out of three, Zenfone 10 at least gets the 3.5mm jack…might be some cheap Motorola something that still has a jack, as well?).
Me personally, I could even live with just the 3.5mm jack. The whole argument of “it’s for waterproofing/making the phone thinner/insert BS excuse here” falls flat when my Galaxy S9 has a 3.5mm jack and the same IP68 rating as the Pixel 8, yet manages to be thinner.
Welcome to the club!
The only game I can’t play is rocket league.
Have you tried it on Heroic Games Launcher yet? I play RL from time to time with a buddy, and both of us have gotten it to work without any notable issues via Heroic.
I really hope they fix the issue with the picture-in-picture video not staying over top of all other windows; that’s the only thing keeping me from using Wayland Firefox right now.
You might be on to something there; I’ll have to give that a look!
Yeah, that seems to be a common theme. Creating timers from Assistant still works fine, but anything with Assistant that has to go through Tasks is basically broken :(
Have you ever found a way to make reminders in Tasks through Google Assistant actually work? When they switched from the Assistant reminders to Tasks, they became so unreliable at showing at the specified time (i.e. “remind me to do ___ at 3pm”) that I can’t use them anymore.
Bass player approved.
First Android phone was a Motorola Moto G4. Solid phone, great budget buy at the time. Replaced it with a refurbished Galaxy S9 in 202, which is actually still serving me to this day. My S9 is showing its age now, but I’m refusing to buy a phone that does not have a headphone jack, so I’m going to run it into the ground.
First Android device was actually a Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet (16GB storage, 1GB of RAM). Ended up running Jellybean, and finally KitKat, off of a microSD card to keep it going. Actually still have it, but flashed to Android 7. Gapps doesn’t install, but I’m impressed it was able to run as well as it did.
Pixels don’t support display out over USB-C? Well, that’s dumb. Surprised I’ve never heard about that being a missing feature before.
TLJ higher than the prequels is a bold statement. That was the movie that convinced me that new Star Wars was dead on arrival.
ROTS being so low actually surprises me a bit; what’s your reasoning for that? If you haven’t checked it out, I strongly recommend the novelization of ROTS, it’s one of the best Star Wars novels I’ve ever read.
