I always forget you can just block ppl why do I argue goddamn it

Even when they make it over they never get anywhere near the same amount of features because they either plan for mobile/tablet screens and use, or use a different codebase and need to be redeveloped entirely, end up being a different app, somtimes different devs

different codebase and apparently not very good as an android app

Yes becuase that is what I do on social media sites like lemmy, this is a scientific forum based in fact now apparently

They arent good and severely lacking features? They are remade versions, and all of those definitely isnt true

yeah I was going off the article where ppl tested seeing through walls

IM NOT BLIND TO SHIT HOLY SHIT, WHY ARE YOU BEING OBTUSE ON PURPOSE, IM NOT BANNING ALL AI DISCUSSION EVER FROM LEMMY I SIMPLY SAID NO AI FOR THIS SINGULAR THREAD, WHY IS FOLLOWING DIRECTIONS SO DIFFICULT FOR AI DICKRIDERS

ideally itd be a phone replacement or use your phones power to supplement its own wirelessly, kinda useless if you still need to whip your phone out, i wonder if wed have fake slabs you carry around for use in ar by ppl used to touchscreens lol

You dont have to be technical to find use out of an appstore like flathub especially if it was built in to the playstore or a seperate store

onlyoffice is a solid ms word, ppt, excel clone for linux, same file format, any linux app, there are many, linux games? wine, hella options?

blender, dj software like mixx, davinci resolve, video editors, kdenlive, etc. full desktop versions of apps sht on mobile versions still

Makes plenty of sense, itll still develop in other directions, only vibe coder bros think it’ll encompass anything and everything or that it should. If you want to talk about machine learning in medicine go for it, generative Ai is boring to talk about, I don’t care for it, you have infinite threads to talk about it why choose this one. There are infinite topics in this world that can be covered without ai needing to be spoken about.

Check out what emulators can do on modern android devices

old netbooks/laptops with less power can run linux fine, your phone is prob capable of a lot more than you think it is, you can already run linux using some workarounds

In discussions? Sure, you can. I’m not acting like it won’t exist, it just doesn’t need to be talked about 24/7, other tech exists and will continue to progress too.

I personally don’t care about AI and am tired of hearing about this, I made this post and specifically put no AI to hear about anything else

By true android desktop I mean it would let you download linux apps and run them. It’s a faked mobile experience in dex right now and that seems to be the initial direction they are going with android desktop, still not terrible, but not a pc experience. This isn’t about buying hardware, this is about letting people use the hardware they already have, building on the personal computer in your pocket aspect.

Some people seem to be confused thinking i’m implying the current form of android desktop. I’m saying its possible they shift towards it being a proper desktop experience instead of just mobile apps reframed. Phones have the capabilities to be the personal computer for most ppl and a lot of ppl can only afford one device. Most of the world has a phone no pc, now if android could give all those ppl access to a pc, all they need is the phone they already have plus a monitor, keyboard, and mouse, that would give ppl a strong incentive to stay with and stick to android, since its not just their phone, its their pc now, its their whole life.

I used to spend all day daydreaming about ai in class back in middleschool/highschool, magic leap had me thinking we were days away from virtual cod/harry potter dueling, real life yugioh, pokemon go had me thinking glasses were a year away lol. I’ve just needed to give up on AR for my own sanity, It’s the one thing that feels magical when it comes to tech still and gets me delusional/overhyped. Reality would just be ads everywhere.

always workarounds for technical ppl, itd be completely different if it was built into android tho and came with an update to existing phones

I could see apple maps and google colluding, both dropping paywalls same year
