First, there was google wallet, then came android pay, then google wallet and android pay got merged into google pay, then google pay was split into google wallet and google pay, then google pay shut down in us.

To be continued...

Next: Google Android Wallet Pay

Google Wallet with Gemini.

Gemini will suggest where you should spend your money next, based on AI analysing your spending patterns.

By the way Gemini is going to automatically pay the optimum amount of tip based on Google partnership.

Optimal tips in US is now 35-45%, minimum for not getting kicked in the groin is 20%, plan accordingly.

Suggest? Nah fam, it will decide what you want and make the purchases for you based on your overall profile, browsing patterns, bank account analysis and integration with smart devices in your home such as the fridge.

... And now it's dead too.

Will it come with its own proprietary chat?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 6 months ago

It's almost as if, and bear with me here this is a truly wild concept, letting every manager run their own little show and paying them based on how many new products they introduce isn't actually healthy.

Are you sure that you're not thinking of Duo/meet/Hangout?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

Don't put hangout in the same breath as duo and meet. It was way better than those "two"

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

So true. I should have said "Allo", but I'd forgotten it existed.

I have Google Fi and it was fantastic to have that work using Hangouts. I could turn any device into a spare phone. The "replacement" website feature is disappointing.

This sounds like someone trying to describe the women’s legs of that video of OpenAI’s Sora … Tokyo Walk.
