I'm not very knowledgeable about current models but isn't that the whole USP for Nothing Phone? There are multiple lights so you can customize unique patterns for both contacts and apps.

> Why do no android phones have IR blasters anymore?

Both Xiaomi and OnePlus have it on their phones. Personally I never used mine and didn't see the point. It was quicker and more effortless to just click the button on the physical remote next to me than having to navigate through the apps on my phone.

> Or FM Radio support?

You can listen to almost any radio station online nowadays and plenty of countries (EU) have roaming agreements so the benefit of having FM radio must be extremely niche. I know you mentioned it being niche, but I'm talking niche niche.

I assume you have some kind of use case that goes beyond regular consumers.

I use a Fenix 6X Pro and it's a great exercise tracker with notifications. I don't see it as a smartwatch though. You can't reply to messages beyond stock replies or visit an url. I'm yet to find an interesting app and I find the UI cumbersome whenever you want to do something.

I still think it's a great watch and I love the battery life. I just believe it's possible to make something so much better. I don't know if Pebble is the answer but I welcome them trying.

I assume you would still be able to do that, just better? Like pixel art. Super Mario Bros. 3 look great despite being 36 years old. Contrast this with 3D games for the original PlayStation that have aged poorly.

True but in this case he's still using a mobile app. So I assume there's some value in having the tasks individually printed in comparison with just writing them manually and that's what I'm curious about.

Getting tempted to give Japanese a shot when seeing that deck. I spent a lot of time with subs2srs for German but found it difficult to match subs with audio. There's probably more media available today thanks to Netflix but I'm probably past the Anki stage for that language.

On the downside, you'll need to purchase each version separately. I bought it on Apple and then moved to Windows. I'm considering buying it again but I'm curious how well Obsidian would work for it considering it's free and has the rest of my life.

Interesting project. What's the advantage of this over, say, an inbox folder in a todo app like Todoist or a note in Keep?

To add to this. James Bond is currently being rewritten. Disney have banned stories by Don Rosa to be published again. Pippi Longstocking was rewritten after the authors death. Tintin went through court in Belgium in an attempt to ban it. It's definitely happening to a lot of well-known stories and isn't a fringe movement that OP is claiming.

> or showing up to work drunk because they're worried about getting fired for calling in sick

I feel like there are a plethora of issues there.
