JUST IN: The Pixel 8 Pro comes with UFS 4.0 storage

Google mentioned in the Pixel 8 Pro specifications that it comes with UFS 3.1 storage on BOTH, 128GB as well as 256GB storage variant

However, in reality, the 256GB storage comes with Kioxia UFS 4.0 storage and the 128GB comes with UFS 3.1

Google didn't mention it uses UFS 4.0 only because the controller in the Google Tensor G3 chip does NOT support UFS 4.0

But at the same time, Google did NOT cheap out on parts either and offered UFS 4.0 storage likely because the price difference between the UFS 3.1 and UFS 4.0 isn't that much and Google does NOT do cost-cutting on parts like Xiaomi

OnePlus on the other hand advertised the OnePlus 12R as having UFS 4.0 storage and the SoC in it even supports UFS 4.0 but in reality was offering UFS 3.1 storage

The March 2024 Pixel Feature Drop is here, bringing new features to Pixel phones, the Pixel Tablet, and the first-gen Pixel Watch. Here’s what’s new:

Pixel phones:

1) Circle to Search is coming to the Pixel 7 and 7 Pro! This was previously exclusive to the Galaxy S24 series and the Pixel 8 series.

2) Next-gen Call Screen (Pixel 6 and newer) is adding a “hello” chip that gets the Google Assistant to prompt the caller to speak. This can be useful if the caller is silent. If you aren’t available, the Assistant will let the caller know to wait.

3) You can now share Ultra HDR photos to Instagram or 10-bit HDR videos to Reels from your Pixel phone (Pixel 7, 7 Pro, 8, 8 Pro, and Fold)!

Pixel Tablet:

1) Gboard’s new Voice Toolbar for tablets minimizes the digital keyboard when voice input is activated in order to optimize screen space.

Pixel phones and Pixel Tablet:

1) Android’s Connected Devices settings page now lets you access Bluetooth accessories you previously set up through Fast Pair (Pixel 5a and later)..

2) Google Docs Markups lets you add handwritten annotations to a document using only your finger or stylus. (This was announced last week at MWC 2024 and is available on any device running Android 8.0+).

Pixel Watch:

1) First-gen Pixel Watch is finally getting automatic workout detection! This works for running, walking, elliptical, spinning, outdoor biking, treadmill, and rowing.

2) You can now set a goal pace during an exercise with your first-gen Pixel Watch. This lets you know when you’re within your target and get notifications for when you fall outside of it.

3) You can now track the time you spend in each heart rate zone to optimize and guide your training on your first-gen Pixel Watch, and you can set up notifications to alert you when you move between zones.

4) Fitbit Relax App now guides you through breathing exercises to help you relax.

The update also brings Android 14 QPR2 with the March 2024 security patches. QPR2 introduces several new Android features including an expandable Bluetooth QS tile, faster seamless updates, partial screen recording and screen casting, a search bar in the taskbar’s app drawer, a revamped privacy indicator dialog, a new shortcut to share your Wi-Fi network, and other minor changes.

RIP Yuzu Emulator

Recently, Nintendo sued Yuzu, for “facilitating piracy at a colossal scale.”
Now, Yuzu has decided to settle the lawsuit

The Nintendo 3DS emulator, Citra is also DEAD

Nintendo wants Yuzu to:
• Pay $2.4 Million for damages
• Agree that Yuzu is “primarily designed to circumvent and play Nintendo Switch games.”
• Surrender the yuzu-emu.org domain name to Nintendo
• NOT delete any “evidence” that infringes Nintendo’s IP rights.
• Delete copies of Yuzu

Prohibit working on Yuzu, hosting Yuzu, distributing Yuzu’s code or features, hosting websites and social media that promote Yuzu

Agree to DELETE “all circumvention tools used for developing or using Yuzu—such as TegraRcmGUI, Hekate, Atmosphère, Lockpick_RCM, NDDumpTool, nxDumpFuse, and TegraExplorer,”

Handover any “physical circumvention devices” and “modified Nintendo hardware” to Nintendo.

So, Yuzu Shuts Down to Better Emulate the Video Game Industry
You will always be remembered 🙏🏻

F*CK YOURSELF NINTENDO!

Let's spread conspiracy theories please 🥲

Conspiracy theory no. 1

Conspiracy theory no. 2

So here is how it happened, zucc was caressing his very advanced highly sophisticated authentication servers (unencrypted myphp sql server), but he wanted to immerse himself more, so he put on his company issued Meta quest headset, and performed some penetration testing (utilizing his lizard cock) but he forgot to use protection and idk im not a wattpad enthusiast he fucked the shit out of the server

allegedly, not my words

also nature is healing

they predicted in 2023

Conspiracy theory no. 4

I pissed on the server
My bad

theory no. n: Xiaomi is the cause of this.

Oh wow, Microsoft is ending support for the Windows Subsystem for Android (WSA)!

The Amazon Appstore on Windows and all apps and games dependent on WSA won't be supported starting March 5, 2025.

Any apps or games you installed prior to today will still be available through the deprecation date.

Apple launched the MacBook Air with the M3 chip globally

Mac Air with the new M3 chip comes in 2 sizes —13" and 15"

New features compared to the M2 MacBook Air:
• Wi-Fi 6E
• New Anodization seal for reduced fingerprints
• New 3-mic array with Voice Isolation
• Enhanced voice clarity in audio and video calls

There's even support for up to 2 external displays (with the MacBook Air lid CLOSED)
However, if you OPEN the MacBook Air to use the mouse/keypad, it will TURN OFF one of the two display externals

So, if you need to use 2 external displays together, you also need to bring your own mouse/keyboard which costs separately
(Certified Appul Moment)

That's all.....
Even the wallpapers are SAME as M2 Mac Air lol
