Growing up Gen-X in America meant exposure to a great many TV ads, including relentless campaigns like the one for Remington Microscreen electric shavers featuring the company CEO, Victor Kiam… 1/
« the revealed preference is their core voters actively enjoy being taken for a ride by the most obvious scam artists you’ve ever seen, as long as they validate their morbid pathologies about race and gender as they do so. »
politicians & press alike insist we can never tell anti-immigrant voters they're wrong—but they are, & we should!

#Microsoft wants to take #screenshots of our #screen every few seconds now?

This wonderful #AI "feature" for #Copilot+ #PC is called #Recall

"Recall is currently in preview status. During this phase, we'll listen to customer feedback..."

This Apricot Microscreen #keyboard looks way ahead of its time. The only Apricot I used had a very boring keyboard, but this looks like it's built for macros. £ and # on digits again.

microscreen is a motorola feature, but other phones should simply have an option to reduce the screen's resolution. i had to use microscreen because even with developer mode, i didn't have an option to simply reduce resolution besides that.

Hmm. Looks like an electric razor to me.

Never really thought about it, by I guess with a hot, gusting wind from the desert, air temperature can vary rapidly. A traditional mercury max-min thermometer may respond too slowly to notice what an electronic sensor inside a microscreen can detect.

Victor Kiam of Remington fame seemed to have waged a personal war against all forms of body hair. As well as the microscreen he also gave us thing to remove ear and nose hair too.

I am shocked he didn't launch the PubeRipper 4000 range as well.

my phone's old and couldn't reach a high enough framerate to let me beat the #MonsterHunterNow prologue, until i tricked my phone like this:

1. "Microscreen" to reduce resolution by half
2. Splitscreen with another app

so it ends up like this & runs well cause it's tiny now

Nothing Phone (3) Glyph Matrix Screen Explained A Deep Dive into its Features and New LED Display Technology
## Looking Deep into the Nothing Phone (3)'s Glyph Matrix Screen The Nothing Phone (3) has a new and better light-up feature. The old LED lights are now a "Glyph Matrix," a big, single-color microscreen with 489 LEDs. This makes a second screen on the phone's back. ### The Glyph Matrix on the Nothing Phone (3) Back **Main Uses of the Glyph Matrix** This Glyph Matrix helps you see info quick when the phone is faced down. Its key jobs are: * Showing messages from apps. * Putting up pictures for who is calling or texting. * Showing how far downloads or timers have gone. * Serving as a countdown before a photo is taken. * Changing volume shows by growing or dropping bars. * Plays a little show for NFC pay or sharing data. Soon, an update will make it show who is calling with just a push of a back button. ### Fun Ways to Use It and Games A round button on the back makes this screen do more things: * **Glyph Mirror:** Helps you take selfies with the back camera. * **Digital Clock:** Tells time, choosing from a 12- or 24-hour style. * **Battery Level:** Shows how much charge is left. * **Stopwatch:** Just a regular stopwatch. * **Sundial:** A fun, digital sun clock. * **Level:** Check if things are flat. * **Games:** Simple ones like "Spin the Bottle," "Rock, Paper, Scissors," and "Magic 8 Ball." ### For Developers and More Info Nothing says this is just one more fun way to use the phone. You get to change it in an app, and there's an open SDK for those who make apps. This could lead to third-party apps and new ideas for using the Glyph Matrix. Also, the Nothing Phone (3) has a tiny red light near the camera area that turns on when recording video or sound.
