quote:We’ve been working on an option for users to require their eyes to be open to unlock the phone, which will be delivered in a software update in the coming months. In the meantime, if any Pixel 4 users are concerned that someone may take their phone and try to unlock it while their eyes are closed, they can activate a security feature that requires a pin, pattern or password for the next unlock. Pixel 4 face unlock meets the security requirements as a strong biometric, and can be used for payments and app authentication, including banking apps. It is resilient against invalid unlock attempts via other means, like with masks.

I don't get it disabling the app entirely for a phone vs just disabling the fingerprint login. Could be that their app is so well made that they have no idea to block that per device and it just accepts using it on any device that exposes the capability which would be lol.

I agree, but most banking apps refuse to run on jailbroken or rooted phones when the web banking obviously still works fine, so I assume it's yet more security theatre. ~Coxy fucked around with this message at 04:52 on Oct 23, 2019 |

crepeface posted:okay i know i'm posting a lot of links but mega lol at this: a bit weird, but i guess the pretty low brightness pwm (250 hz iirc) on past pixels remains, and the frequencies start noticeably interfering on lower brightnesses with the higher refresh rate? e.g. 70% brightness having each bright period showing the very awkward 1.9444 frames?

It sounds like they should have used a higher pwm frequency for the backlight. Wtf is 250hz lol I can do 10khz with any LED any day for like 50 cents

Oh, it's oled? Well that's extra stupid then since it's all the same controller. Why the gently caress wouldn't they use a frequency that's a multiple of both 60 and 90 Hertz

the hardware is capable of it, you can force it in developer options. they just made it work this way because of arbitrary google reasons

Why the gently caress wouldn't they use a frequency that's a multiple of both 60 and 90 Hertz to be clear i am just speculating on why they've done it that way (with two separate configurations for the screen it is clearly not some accident/bug), but i also can't think of anything else that'd make more sense. looking it up the pixel 3 did indeed pwm around 250 hz, on oled, so not remembering the facts wrong at least.

maybe it's a battery life thing i.e. if you have your brightness max on, you obviously don't give a poo poo about battery life, so you get all the battery draining looks-flashy features
