Rambler is fine, but what it really needs is slow talk mode.
My dad can’t even use these voice assistants because he takes too long to formulate and say his request and the ai just stops listening partway in and gives a useless answer.
Not everyone is a fast talking tech bro.

It’s bad enough humanity is slowly forfeiting it’s skills in favor of AI convenience. Now with Rambler were making features actively training us to not be able to even form basic sentences or thoughts. WALL-E is literally coming true.

well look at that. One name on the Epstein list and there’s another one I think? and Gemini… Don’t they use that in it ice? and what is that called where Gemini is actually in control of the drones and the drone swarms? seems like a new way to spy on us if anything but hey whatever

I’m looking forward to this. I use a Duet 5 hoping they create a detachable tablet keyboard hybird
@apropersleeper
May 13, 2026 at 7:48 pm
So, basically when I’m looking for something, Gemini is going to give me the options that paid Google for advertising? And then tell me it’s the best option?

The cursor is fine, we don’t need to flick it or whip it across the screen, it is not a Wii remote… give us solid hardware and an OS alternative to Windows and MacOS. But that is hard – takes R&D, testing and all of this would eat out your 30-40% expected margins. I hope I am wrong as I am still interested in this, we shall see

I hope you’re finally serious and not just talking nonsense and lying, and then discontinuing the Googlebook laptop after two years. But you should be focusing more on Google TV and Google TV Streamer; you’ve only talked rubbish and lied about them. Like at CES 2026 in Las Vegas in January, I have the Google TV Streamer and I’m having serious software system problems. Google TV and Android TV are having major issues. The very last update was in April 2025, and the August update was a very outdated security update that caused the problems: crashes, bugs, stuttering, freezes, even the apps start very slowly, and the picture is grainy. And on August 1st, 64-bit is mandatory for apps and the software system, so get to work! No more talk, I want action! So get to work! Greetings from Germany

@aitoolspark
May 17, 2026 at 9:00 am
“Everything announced in 14 minutes” — honestly the most honest thing Android has said in years… most companies need a 2-hour keynote just to announce a new shade of blue.

This is cool let’s see if you need more than 8gb to make it work otherwise I’ll be pissed if I got a 10a and I won’t, maybe they will just set aside 200 million to pay everyone like apple did. I mean they have the cash so what do they care
