When it comes to classic #motorsport #films, there are but two worth mentioning: James Garner's "Grand Prix" (1967) and Steve McQueen's "Le Mans" (1971).

I adore both, but I lean heavily toward Garner's side, both for film ambiance and for actor personality.

Still, I can't get over the #TAGHeuer #Monaco chronograph #watch that McQueen wore in "Le Mans".🤷‍♂️

Die #Menschenrechtsorganisation #Human #Rights #Watch will, dass es einen internationalen Vertrag gibt, der autonome #Waffensysteme verbietet. Diese Systeme können ganz gut ohne viel menschliche #Kontrolle arbeiten. Sie nutzen #Technologien wie #Software, #Algorithmen und #Sensoren, um #Entscheidungen zu treffen. Die Organisation sagt, dass #Maschinen nicht über #Leben und #Tod entscheiden sollten.

Im Mai wird die #UNO-#Vollversammlung zum ersten Mal über dieses Thema diskutieren. Über 120 Länder finden den Vorschlag für einen Vertrag gut, aber die #USA, #Russland und #Israel sind dagegen. Autonome #Waffensysteme, das sind zum Beispiel #Raketenabwehrsysteme und bewaffnete #Drohnen. Die werden zum Beispiel im #Ukraine-Konflikt eingesetzt.

Galaxy Watch5 receives a new update

After Samsung rolled out the stability update to the Galaxy Watch7 and the Watch6 series, Samsung has started rolling out a new software update that is rather massive to the Galaxy Watch5 series, starting from Korea, on April 24th. The flagship watches will be updated to the following versions:

  • Galaxy Watch5 40mm (BT and Cellular, SM-R900/R905x): CYCD
  • Galaxy Watch5 44mm (BT and Cellular, SM-R910/R915x): CYCD
  • Galaxy Watch5 Pro 45mm (BT and Cellular, SM-R920/R925x): CYCD

You can now update your smartwatch, but if you still didn’t receive any update, you’ll have to wait for a few days as this rollout is a gradual rollout that starts from Korea. You can periodically check for updates to see if this update has reached your device. We recommend that you update your watch manager in your phone to ensure compatibility with the latest software.

To update your watch, follow these steps:

  • With your phone
    1. Open Galaxy Wearable
    2. Select your watch
    3. Open Watch settings
    4. Navigate to Software Update
    5. Tap Download and Install
    6. Wait until the update shows up, then press Download
    7. Wait until the update gets downloaded and copied to your watch, then press Install
  • With your watch
    1. Open Settings
    2. Navigate to Software update
    3. Tap Download and Install
    4. Wait until the update shows up, then press Download
    5. Wait until it gets downloaded to your watch, then press Install

In an event that something went wrong with copying the update, disconnect your phone from your watch by turning Bluetooth off or by disconnecting it through Galaxy Wearable, then try again from your watch. Make sure to turn Wi-Fi on in your watch to download the update faster.

Make sure that both your phone and your watch are charged before performing the update, and that your internet connection is stable. Never interrupt the update process, or there could be problems later. The update process may take a few minutes to finish, and if it appears to be stuck, just wait for more minutes.

Does anyone at Apple wash their hands?

In the eight years since I started wearing an Apple Watch, I’ve felt it has gained features that made sense. The activity rings have always been great but we finally got rest days via a pause feature. Walkie Talkie is fun when it works (rarely). Even the “widget style” redesign a couple years ago made sense once I got used to it. Overall, the Apple Watch has come a long way throughout the […]

I adore #Casio and #Panasonic when it comes to dependable and rugged consumer electronics. Yet...

I have this #protrek swg-100 watch since 2009 and it has been a reliable #watch but terrible wrist watch. Damn strap ripped after 6 years and a new one didn't even last 4 years.

I am done buying new straps and went full DIY on it with 3d printed TPU strap. I will be keeping this watch in emergency bag from now on.
