miss me with that shit
Christ what the fuck kind of offer is that. Who wants these shit features for this price.
All my screenshots are memes. Where is Google going to send me on vacation?
I'm going to Portland or pornland, one of the two.
To the moon!
Not that I want this.... But why is it rolling out to ios before android?
Because on Android, you can inspect the APK yourself, but on iOS, it's trust me bro.
Think this is useless? It gets worse!
The new screenshot feature for Google Maps doesn’t appear to detect locations based on image recognition, instead requiring visible text
They must've told the new intern "Put AI in Google Maps. You have 3 days."
I almost feel bad for the poor sap.
Not if I don't use Google Maps...
Google Maps can, and we're just hearing this live now, "get fucked".
Woohooo something 90% of people will NEVER use, it will be on by default so they can scan all your pics (in case they didn't already)
Manufacturing use-cases to justify spyware.
Yet again a "feature" nobody asked for. It will not even properly do what it says.
No, but it will do something they need that we won’t want or like.
If you didn't install OS on your device than some body else did... So they can do whatever they want
I guess for a person who screenshots places they want to go.
90% of my screenshot roll are of horror movies I want to watch. Google will be planning vacations to abandoned houses and Antarctic research stations. Yaaay.
🤢🤮
Shrek and his dick getting sucked
shrek is love. shrek...
is life.
Uh, no thanks.
