Google might be priming the pump for PC users to move to Andromeda, once Android is fully mated with Chromebooks. Mobile search will likely work perfectly on Google OS's. Google, Microsoft, and Apple all suck these days. Not one of them takes user experiences seriously. You get what they want you to have, not what you really want.
I look forward to a better Chrome experience on Android 6. It can be annoying at times. I prefer Opera Mini and will until Chrome, or another browser proves to be faster and with fewer ads.
46 years ago I took a college course on senescence. George Sacher developed an equation that calculated the maximum life span for any species, based on five factors. There are always a tiny number of exceptions to the rule. Humans were calculated to, on average, have a maximum life span of 120 year. This "new" study seems to be rediscovering old information.
Yahoo is the Internet equivalent of a store that was completely looted. There are only broken packages on the floor. The store manager orders a new video camera to prove he's sincere about security. Yahoo has already been cleaned out. Anything they do for now that is useful, will improve their image.
The problem is not unclear. It is, however, non-specific other than innumerable issues were caused by Windows 10 upgrades where drivers weren't available or worse. Our shop estimated that about ten percent of our income for the past year was Windows 10 related, most were problems. One was quite serious when a Microsoft GWX notification came up and informed a local Township treasurer than her Dell XPS Windows 7 laptop was compatible with Windows 10 and was ready to be upgraded. It was not compatible, as she painfully learned. The Windows 10 Pro installation prevented booting due to a fingerprint reader driver not being updated by Dell, and Microsoft did not design Windows 10 to automatically install the existing driver in such cases We did a clean install of Windows 7 to get her up and running again. Dell's website clearly stated that her XPS model should not be updated to Windows 10. And yet somehow Microsoft did not get the message, or simply didn't care to check with all OEM databases for compatibility. There must be many thousands of stories like this one where a properly functioning PC was rendered unusable thanks to Microsoft's lack of quality assurance with Windows 10.
I do this on NewEgg also. The people with the biggest gripes are the ones that post the most. So, the most negative reviews are the most telling about a quality product, or lack thereof.
As a coatings chemist, then Technical Director, I developed the first low VOC waterborne coating for computers that lowered the bake from 30 minsutes at 350F to 30 minutes at 150F. I knew the otherwise thermoplastic resin self-condensed (crosslinked) at 140F, so no hazardous melamine or urea were needed to develop the office chimerical resistance (cleaners, foods) that was specified, either. This was around 1978. It was developed originally for Digital. Customers took forever to approve it even though it met their specs. How could a low polluting. energy saving waterborne acrylic be as good as a high temperature bake polyester coating with 6 pounds of hydrocarbons per gallons? Give the younger techies an opportunity to try new ideas. Let them make a little dent. All the little improvements add up to less energy use and cleaner air.
I have notifications turned on, on my LG K8 Android 6 phone. Google has not installed any of the apps you mentioned, without providing me with a notification. There is an option to uninstalled the update, if it isn't desired. Google is far more upfront about what they do then you are letting on.
Don't get carried away. Computers simply run programs. Calling what they do "AI" or "thinking" is incorrect. They simply compute, albeit using ever more complex algorithms.
I tried Freedom Pop a couple of years ago. It isn't free. The phone was $119 for a used low end Samsung that was worth about $10. Calls, nearly all of them, sounded like the person I was speaking with was under water way too often. Until I read, from trustworthy sources, that Freedom Pop has indeed turned the corner and has a quality service, I'll not recommend it to anyone. The customer support was absolutely horrible, and could not solve any of the problems I had. In fact, my last call to support, the service rep said he couldn't hear me, shortly after denying that they had any issues.
The trick is to pick the best speaker seeds. Plant them in luxurious gold sprinkled soil, Tenderly watch over then every day as you feed them love with direct disc music playing all around. The newly grown speaker drivers must be picked at exactly the right time to ensure proper impedance matching and optimum efficiency. Nah. The real cost is probably about $50 to $75 is just gouging people, I reviewed audiophile gear in the early 90's for two publications. A home made cable, using oxygen free copper that was a single crystal, sounded just about as clear and clean as silver cables. The hand made stuff was always sinfully expensive, while Parasound's made in Taiwan monoblock amps were a good value with near zero distortion. People mock audiophile listeners. The one thing that sets their gear apart from high priced Best Buy stereo equipment is lack of distortion in every component leading to an enjoyable listening session at any (reasonable) volume level.
Governments are pushing socialism more than helping create jobs. This is a disturbing trend that portends an ever growing underclass that has little opportunity to advance in life.
What brands do you use? Microsoft will feed you coupons, readable with your smartphone, or sent directly to your smartphone, to save you money on whatever companies overpriced products are paying them to send you ads with coupons. If you think a "smart" fridge is for your benefit, think again.

Anyone still using Yahoo needs to jump ship as Yahoo will never be a great company, especially if Verizon purchases it.

Most will use what they see, even if they hate it.

The shipping from China to the US can take six weeks. Usually, it's much faster, from 2 to 4 weeks.

I bet that your family isn't starving though. Nor, do they march to your orders. I could be wrong on that one.
Thank you. I wanted to be the one to reply in said manner. I think that I'm clever. Therefore, so are you.

I just learned that a plethora is defined as 15 plentys. Cool.

I'm 6'4" tall and I pay taxes!
Praise be to those that are wealthy. If we do what they say, we'll be just like them someday.
Instead of commenting on helping keep the system honest, the researcher get jail time. Politicians are jerks.

Anyone listening to my calls or texts deserves the death by boredom that will happen to them. Fuck all you spy agency assholes.

And yet, HDMI is on hundreds of millions of HD televisions that aren't going anywhere soon.
