FMguru posted:lol they just announced they were shutting down Trips (their travel booking/comparison/planning site) and my first reaction was "google had a travel booking/planning/comparison site?" you will be shocked to learn that it's different from Google Flights (a flight booking/planning/comparison service)

it's very different because that wasn't Google trips purpose at all, it just scraped your email to create an itinerary for trips. it didn't work very well and you couldn't edit the itineraries so if you booked outgoing and return flights separately they would be separate itineraries or sometimes you would end up with one itinerary to a layover city and a separate one for the actual destination

google trips was cool and good and the replacement (a new web page in google search?) is completely missing the point that it got you all your itinerary details offline, which is kind of useful if you’re travelling abroad and don’t always have a data connection. maybe it wasn’t perfect but it worked for me

google trips doesn't even have weather at destinations in the app it's so bare bones it's basically a piece of paper with your flight number written on it

lol it didn't even integrate with calendar. i thought it could at least pull my manual, local event location data and build out a rudimentary travel plan.

It would seemingly make sense to make the Trips page a PWA to fill in this functionality, unless they really just don't give a poo poo and are just replacing the app with the most minimal thing that they can point to claim they are replacing Trips rather than killing it.

But does Google even have any PWAs? everyone implementing chrome-only support for their web page is doing free labor promoting the web browser from the world's largest advertising company even the current round of "PWA" branding for web pages that load megabytes of js and an ugly font feels very google-y

ComputerWorld: Google's officially done making its own tabletsquote:Here's an interesting little nugget of info to chew on: Google's decided to step away from its self-made tablets and focus instead on the laptop form.

speaking of tablets, is there a tablet available that through some combination of dongles can output an HDMI signal? specifically one that supports a mainstream app store, so not a switch

oh the adapter that costs 50 dollars, compresses the video, and stopped working with ios12, and even if it did work wouldn't support Netflix. next time save me the time and just tell me to go gently caress myself

please do the needful pretty much anything that has usb-c and android will work with a usb-c to hdmi dongle
