I hope they make it play on max volume no mater what your settings, just for nostalgia’s sake.

Gears like this are one of my minor pet peeve in media. I know this was AI but even humans get it wrong a lot.

Im guilty of this. I dont write out the passwords in plaintext though. Its mostly just a few letters to remind me of which version of my many “master” passwords i used and then asterisks. _{P***W0*******$} kinda thing. I know its bad but I can’t bring myself to trust a password manager.

I appreciate the dedication. Your random screenshots inspire me sometimes to dig out some old games and give them a replay so thanks!

Im not sure when the update came out but I’ve had two forced updates in the past 3-4 months for my Pixel 6. Im assuming thats when it changed. I am very meticulous about checking settings after updates but It looks like this was only online settings for your google account, not local to the phone, which is probably how I missed it.

Funny how I turned off any data sharing for google years ago but the inclusion of gemini somehow voids my previous decision.

That brings up a good point though. Based on just the screenshot here, it seems like the user wont have a choice of what gets uploaded. People keep some pretty raunchy photos on their phone sometimes. Even kids might have some questionable photos. This is just asking for trouble.
