new Full Frame from @BeccaFarsace and crew is a lot of fun: https://t.co/d2kIdPQ6dL — PolitiTweet.org

@geclauser sure, no debating that. our country (the richest in the world) could also have provided enough tests for every citizen many months ago, not handing out an inadequate number two years into this mess. — PolitiTweet.org

@mattufford tooth fairy inflation has been a point of contention between my spouse and i for years (i’m on team “a quarter or nothing”, she’s on “whatever cash i have on hand”) — PolitiTweet.org

@RDRv3 logging into our HR management software (UltiPro, another dumpster fire end user experience) to make or approve time off requests requires at least two okta codes and like a dozen page loads. it’s a ten minute process every damn time. — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@RDRv3 yeah it feels like that might be the default? i literally never leave my home office and i’m putting okta codes in all day long — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@RDRv3 anyways, i have sympathy for our IT support staff because whenever i cruise by their slack room it’s just endless requests for okta resets because someone got a new phone or whatever — PolitiTweet.org

@RDRv3 orgs are bad — PolitiTweet.org

@RDRv3 okta is real awful tho — PolitiTweet.org

anyways, transparency around software updates is a very valuable thing for informing phone shoppers, so that’s why we always ask phone makers what their support plans are and make a point of including it in reviews — PolitiTweet.org

@DanielHowley i fully agree and there’s an argument to be made that Google could more forcefully pressure Qualcomm for better support or have moved to its own chips earlier to address this problem. Google is not blameless here. — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

why does this matter to anyone? because if you’re buying a phone and want better support, knowing why one phone gets it and another doesn’t helps inform your purchasing decision. Apple makes its own chips, hence longer support! Google does now too, same deal. — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

the core issue is that the Pixel 3 uses a Qualcomm chip and Qualcomm, not Google, decides when to stop supporting its processors. the Pixel 6 doesn’t use a Qualcomm chip, hence Google can provide longer support. — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

i appreciate this article’s overall point and what it’s saying about how poorly supporting phones is irresponsible on the manufacturers, but it falls short explaining _why_ the Pixel 6 is the first Google phone to have more than three years of support https://t.co/O8LF3eOKKU — PolitiTweet.org

@LightRod97 if a single person shows symptoms or has known exposure, testing all five people living in the same house is prudent. — PolitiTweet.org

@wendishen99 i’ll be fine, we can find / afford / get reimbursed for tests if necessary. but not everyone has that luxury and our government is failing those folks in a bad way. — PolitiTweet.org

@GuySedai also i have HomePod Minis which can’t play Spotify directly — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@GuySedai number of reasons: * my kids destroyed my Spotify algorithm through Alexa voice requests for disney music * i got tired of having podcasts jammed down my throat every time i opened the app * signed up for Apple One, which gave me an Apple Music family plan — PolitiTweet.org
