weird coincidence -- that was my wife's wedding vows

hell yeah lfg

I'm terrified that they might have tried to reuse the flutter layout but with swiftui design language

that's frustrating after I made a whole comment about how iOS standard form factors give such a clear timeline advantage for designers lol

pffft, that's nothing. I break software without even having to be taught

I have zero experience with embedded auto electronics to be clear, so we're on more or less the same level here lmao You can get several months out of a esp8266 logging probe rx on a AAA battery . . .but ideas like "hey lets rely on an esp8266" is probably why I shouldn't be in charge of ideas...

It would be protected against by the nature of 802.11 (in theory). WLAN connections are _always_ initiated by the client probe frame. Receiving and parsing that signal is a very low-power task, certainly less than the current model where the the car acts as a client and sends its own probe...

I've always thought that car manufacturers would be better off inverting the whole model. Stuff some big 2.4ghz antennas into the car and listen for known clients wifi probe frames. When it sees a known client, the car begins a "soft wakeup" and tells the Lucid servers to check the client phone...

ahhh I didn't realize that. And with iOS relatively aggressive limitations on out of process tasks, that probably also meant the mobile key was less reliable (or at least slower)?

I'm all for fixing bugs, but this is a weird take. The android widget is just a shortcut to open the app . . . and there isn't any wearable support at all. this is the true path to happiness

none of which you should ever touch. The hardware abstraction layer (by way of the java apis), provides you with the `BluetoothAdapter` class. That's how your app interacts with the bluetooth hardware. Genuinely apologize if I'm misunderstanding something here, but wouldn't the...

are there any smart toilets that don't run android embedded?

I was all set to dunk on your comment by pointing out that if you're trying to interact with the hardware you've already done something very wrong, but... Nailed it. Developing for iOS is predictable and plannable. Android has gotten better in this regard since the low of the mid 2010s, but...

excuse me sir, android developers don't sit, we slouch

If somebody gets in a bind and urgently needs one of the 21" OEM front tires, I have at least one (potentially three) sitting here unused in storage. I'm not actively trying to sell them or anything, but happy to help out if you someone needs it to get back on the road
