Loved it on my Moto X 2014, not sure how you're doing it wrong. double chop, small movement, around 30 degrees. Hold the phone flat against your palm, like you're shaking hands with it.
Works a little too well sometimes and it turned on when I was running with my phone in my pocket.
I'm not scared of AI advertising because it will be impossible to sell. There are 3 issues:
No marketing agency would ever have the balls to say "we've checked our database and there is no one who would click on your ad."
Any marketing department that gets told their ad has a near 100% click through rate would demand to be shown to more people because "obviously there's a massive audience for our product."
There would be situations where the AI could not find an ad that the person would click on and the AI would shit itself because it would be prompted to "always show an ad"
We already could have the option to only relevant ads but no ad company would because it's being paid to shove ads in front of eyeballs.
It appears that the flagship route didn't work out for them (I rode my Nokia 8 for as long as I could, but the storage was giving me problems.)
Much like when Motorola went into zombie brand mode (after being sold to Lenovo) they leaned hard on the midrange which appeared to do ok, as well as their feature phones.
Google giving up on KaiOS was probably the other killer, money had to go into redeveloping their feature phone software.
I remember this being discussed at length on various forums at the time (the legality, questions about what would happen if it all fell into the sea.) but as with so much of the Internet, it appears to have been largely lost. Luckily I was not imagining things this time and did find a couple of references.
Your reminder that Nintendo 64 games on the Nintendo Switch are using an open source emulator that Nintendo has not contributed to or endorsed in anyway, and is believed to be using game ROMs collected by preservationists.
