The promo video looks like to be shot in Prague, but feels somehow 'off', does it have some ai edits?

From wiki:

* born with cerebral palsy

* adopted, parents separated while 2 mths old, raised only by his mother

* his mother disabled since he was 13, had to assume financial responsibility for her and his then 2yr old sister

That must have been a very difficult life, hats off to him.

Unlike other commenters, I do not mind the ai-ness of this app. This is a quick solution to a problem that we should not have had in the first place.

They launch from Guiana afaik

How can you verify, that the model that you are buying is the one that you are actually getting?

I would have preferred the old one because of battery life. I wear watch to know the time by just glancing on it, so always on is a must for me. It looks nice though.

Still, even with always on, I do 4-5 days between charges with normal use. I recommend watch face 'portal hybrid', which seems to have a slightly lower refresh rate (who cares), but you gain a day of battery compared to stock.

I actually had Fenix 6 before and did and impulsive upgrade to Fenix 8 while diving on holidays. I'm very happy with it, including the microphone, sometimes even use it to take calls, it is surprisingly handy when e.g. holding a kid in one hand.

^ Great observation.

I have a Garmin Fenix 8, but if it would not have a flashlight, vibration alarm and sleep tracking, I'd happily swap it for a mechanical watch as a daily driver.

(obviously still using the Garmin for workouts)

The creepy ai slop woman?

Of course everyone cares about looks. But the original poster says 'above other considerations'. For example I'd take an ugly noiseless laptop over a slick one with fans. Also, very often, looks go hand in hand with build quality.

Does anybody have experience with filing just the 'trackpad corners' on a dark-colored macbook?

I am in neither of these and nor is any of the many people I know with macbooks. I honestly do not understand why any average person would buy anything else than a macbook today.
