Switching between platforms should be easy and seamless, which is why Android 17 has a ground-up new transfer system that transfers even more of your stuff, wirelessly and without the need for a separate app. Works with Photos, contacts, sure, but also passwords, Wi-Fi credentials, and even eSIM.

Say hello to the Pixel 11 series! And stay tuned for the Made by Google keynote at 6ET / 3PT. They're phones worth your attention to because they help you pay ...less attention to your phone. Here's a look at some of my favorite parts: www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXWH...

Made a little video showing how fake call detection works on Android. It's actually quite clever in how it works to solve a real problem. (Of course my favorite part is that it takes advantage of RCS technology. 😅) youtu.be/ZHTOLbHbnQY?...

Me: electronic shifting is nice I guess, but I'm happy with mechanical for the most part and like that I don't have to remember to charge another thing. Me after re-indexing Di2 once: Wait, what? This took literally one minute. What? WHAT? what. wut. I .... I am converted.

It is only when all hope is lost and you are staring the inevitable emptiness of the universe in the face that you can be truly free. You realize meaning is impossible yet still created through absurdity. Give up on thought and act with purpose where no purpose exists. All is folly! Skol Vikings

Vikings ....didn't vike? I'm confused.

Dieter Bohn @backlon.com · 28/09/2025

I'd like to say vikes gonna vike but the essence of vike is to make you believe it's worth having hope in the first place. So what the vikes have viked is the very concept of vike.

Maybe it's because I replayed Hollow Knight again last month and Got Gud (lol I did not), but I'm not finding Silksong to be that much harder? Or maybe: when your video game skill is like a 5, the delta between 8 and 10 difficulty is harder to perceive?

Lazy / stupid question: is there a bank that lets you link your credit card to your checking account for ATMs? I swear I had this, long ago: a credit card that, when I put it in an ATM, let me choose to withdraw from checking, savings, or credit. I'm sure the reason I don't today is shenanigans

I feel like I should get some kind of credit or points for writing out a whole post and then deciding against it and hitting cancel. No drafts, no nothing. Just putting it out there for likes from the universe instead of my followers.

Well there goes my afternoon: I will be playing Watch Face Designer for Wear OS. It's a plugin for Figma that lets you craft watch faces right there and then export directly to Android Studio, to an APK, or even view directly on your device. android-developers.googleblog.com/2025/08/intr...

Bought a cheap air compressor to help seat recalcitrant tubeless tires and I will only use it a couple times a year and what makes me truly angry is I didn't get it a long time ago.
