Hello 🥳
I did none of those things, I shopped just like normal and all the services I use on my devices worked like normal. Zero impact for me.
I use Handbrake or MakeMKV depending on the disc. MakeMKV I mostly use for Bluray, Sometimes the odd DVD doesn’t work correctly with Handbrake.
In Handbrake, I just select the Quality and keep original Audio source, I’ve not needed to change any of settings.
If you use MakeMKV, Its “raw” so large file size (Some Bluray files I’ve had are like 40GB), You can run that file through Handbrake to reduce it.
Turn background app refresh off for majority of apps unless you want it’s data updated in the background.
My mouse uses batteries too, Just swap out once it dies on me.
I still use the Pixel Launcher given animations have been broken for… Years?
Awful delay when swiping for the recent app screen.
My previous one was a Withings Steel HR, Fantastic smart watch, did the basics but it’s main draw for me was it’s analog watch face. Approx 1 month battery life. The smart stuff was shown in a small screen behind it. Ultimately I stopped using it due to age, always losing Bluetooth connection so notifications were unreliable.
My current watch is an Amazfit GTR Mini, Fully touchscreen, Again does basics and few more extras. Battery life is about 10-14days. Nothing to complain about so far.
The Time Hunters by Carl Ashmore, It’s target audience is young but I enjoy books for any age so it’s an easy read!
