r/Pixel6•

I just checked my unlocked Pixel 6 Pro Cloudy White (256GB) order through the Google Store, and my delivery date moved from November 30th to November 9th 🙌🏻.

I ordered October 20th, and was pretty bummed to see such a long wait for my order.

It seems Google was very conservative with their delivery estimates because of demand.

Anyone else see their delivery times move up?

I've been watching out for the Momentum True Wireless headphones for a while now.

For those of you who have also waited for reviews, this is good timing.

Neiman Marcus has a deal going on until 11/23 for any purchase that is $200+.

Use the promo code "Thankful" at checkout, and you'll get $50 off. This includes the True Momentum Wireless headphones.

After tax and free shipping, you should be saving around $30 off MSRP.

I've begun to notice a pattern between the last few seasons.

I'm becoming more aware of the contrast between the quality of teammates and games before and after placements.

Granted, I'm a high platinum/low diamond player on PC. So this may only affect my player bracket.

Is anyone else noticing this? I feel like people jump on to do their placements, and try really hard. Then once they're placed, their mindset shifts, and people try less.

It's not all of my teammates that I feel are actively lethargic, but when half your team isn't wanting to collaborate it makes for a miserable time.

What does the community think of this phenomenon? Is it all in my head?

Simple

  1. Start video chat in Google Duo and hit home button for picture-in-picture
  2. Open another app
  3. Press and hold recents button to select another app
  4. Select another app. You're now in multi-window mode
  5. Scroll through one of the open apps.
  6. Enjoy delicious lag

Just like all of you I was super hyped to finally get a chance to play the Switch and Breath of the Wild.

After everyone "escaped" the Zelda escape room, we made our way to a small booth that was setup with a few Switch systems and the E3 build of Breath of the Wild.

I tried the system in all the different modes, and was very impressed by how quickly the system could switch between TV and portable mode.

Most curious though was that the system very intelligently knew that when I docked the switch, I most likely would want to play on the Pro controller.

*The pro controller automatically connected to the system upon docking. I know they show this in the commercials, but I honestly didn't k

Thought I'd share this little fun tidbit I discovered while messing around.

If you're playing music or any audio through Google Home, you can tell it to pause by saying "Hey Google, Shutup".

Now you can take your frustrations out on Google. Have fun :)

r/MotoX•

I just finished installing Android 5.1.1 on my Moto X 2013 for Verizon.

While poking around in the settings, I noticed that the "Users" option is completely missing. For those who don't know, the "Users" option allows you to add additional accounts to the phone, and use guest mode.

According to the Moto X answer page (https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/prod_answer_detail/a_id/105221) on Motorola's site for 5.1.1, guest mode should be enabled by default. What heck is going on here?

Are any of you new Moto X 2013 5.1.1 Verizon users able to use guest mode?

What are (if any) are the performance gains for using a 9-patch image with rounded corners for say the background of a dynamically changing String of text, vs a custom Shape drawable that's programmatically generated by Android using Canvas or XML?

A coworker of mine insists on using custom Shape drawables for everything, and all my research points to this being a bad idea for performance reasons.

If you can provide some benchmarks that would be amazing. My coworker is more easily convinced by benchmarks...

Hello sirs and madames!

How would the webdev community (you!) feel about a blog that takes websites, analyzes the front end, bashes it a bit, and gives feedback on how the sites could be improved?

It's an idea I've had for a while, but I'd love to hear what the community's take is. Would it be offensive to website owners / other devs? Would it be entertaining / possibly educational for you?

Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks!
