Google is testing this with some owners of the Pixel 6 and newer devices in the US. Tensor is clearly required and this suggests on-device AI is being leveraged. The goal is to “enhance our Call Screen capabilities and reduce robocalls, giving you time back and peace of mind.”

What devices can receive the beta?

Devices that may receive this beta will be the Pixel 6 and above, within the United States.

How can I check my Call Screen Settings to enable/disable the feature?

You can check out this helpful article for steps on checking your Call Screen settings.

When will this become available for everyone?

We’re looking forward to sharing more when the feature launches.

Only reason I installed it is for it's ability to use GitHub releases as a source and notify me if there are updates. As far as I'm aware you have to use f-droid repositories with f-droid -- but it's been a long time since I had f-droid installed.

GitHub + obtabium for automatic updates

Install Lutris.

Use the battle net install helper for Lutris.

Launch battle net.

Profit.

It's like one extra step (install Lutris) compared to Windows. Using Linux doesn't have to be some archaic mystery and the proliferation of the steam deck is doing wonders at improving the ease of use of all this stuff.

Spoiler alert: your individual choices don't matter. Drastic and sweeping changes need to be made at the corporate/supply chain level if we have any hope of surviving this.

So... We're fucked.

Whole-heartedly agree on the quote and it stuck out to me even before coming to the comments here. Redhat might not like that people are repacking "their" software, but the spirit of GPL software is that you can charge for it but folks can also go through the trouble of building it themselves should they not want to go that route and are able to support/debug/maintain the software themselves on their own hardware.

If they don't think the clauses of GPL are fair, then they should probably stop distributing Linux entirely because their entire business model is founded off of profiting off the work of other open source contributions.

Simply rebuilding code, without adding value or changing it in any way, represents a real threat to open source companies everywhere.

One could argue Redhat already does this on packages they have not improved or submitted contributions for.

I mean, it's not hard to make a browser screenshot say whatever you want it to say.

I had more difficulty remembering the markdown image syntax than I did spoofing your comment

You could sponsor him on patreon instead, it might even come with a few non-reddit perks: https://www.patreon.com/syncforreddit

That's fine. Sync is all Android really needs anyway ;)
