Your criticisms are reasonable ones.

Do you think we’ll get to that advanced level of use without experiments? And do you think that this is wrong despite consent to the procedure?

Can you take a moment and imagine some possibilities of taking input directly from someone’s mind and applying it without needing to use your body? I know moving a mouse doesn’t seem impressive, but it demonstrates success at a technological concept that still seems impossible. I can’t speak for the ethics because I don’t know how voluntary the subjects are for the research, but this is very exciting for me, because it will inevitably become more sophisticated.

Hey cool! I’m native and I still don’t always know if the way I’m talking is correct, but nobody really cares. If they do and take issue with it, it’s not worth worrying about.

Unrelated, but I’ve never seen someone use the word “assume” that way before. It technically works, I think?

Fortunately, I have scaled back my paranoia over the past few years. However I would like to check exactly how much data collection is going on and how much I can remove in the settings and how much I can remove from the baked in stuff.

Thank you for the input!

I almost dismissed it but your enthusiasm is keeping it on my radar. Thanks!

The storage limitation is a shame, but if it fits all my other criteria I could look past it. However, I question the durability and battery life of pixels. I have heard a lot online that pixels have bad battery life. And my pixel 5a had what I thought was adequate protection, but it failed to withstand a short drop. Despite these biases a used Pixel 6 / Pixel 6a is still on my radar.

I appreciate your input.

It’s against the rules to post recommendation requests on !android@lemdro.id That is a good idea, however I have received far, far more responses than I expected to (I am new to lemmy and I have not really posted on social media) so for now I will abstain. Thank you for the comment!
