(If it's the Settings under “Google Assistant”... that also requires turning on “Web & App Activity” and more...)

Yes, at least based on the instructions I've seen for how to get to it (choose “Customize” in the menu of the Google app).

Is there a way to get Android Oreo (on a Pixel 2) to show the temperature in Celsius (rather than Fahrenheit) on the homescreen *without* enabling syncing of all "Web & App Activity" to Google?

Maybe not quite to the level of Eric Moody:
“Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem. All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them going again. I trust you are not in too much distress.”

@gandinoc IMAP on mail.gandi.net gives:
IMAP< A0002 NO [UNAVAILABLE] Account is temporarily unavailable.

I think the above code shows the difference more clearly:
* logs "false,false,true" in Firefox
* logs "false,true,true" in Chrome
My guess is this has to do with synchronous vs asynchronous loading of contents of empty iframes? That's a question for @hsivonen.

var f = document.createElement('iframe')
var loaded = false;
var t = "";
f.addEventListener('load', () => { loaded = true; })
t += `${loaded},`;
document.body.appendChild(f)
t += `${loaded},`;
setTimeout(() => { t += `${loaded}`; console.log(t); }, 100);

If a city builds nothing for 4 years and then meets the production goal in 1 year, looks like they get 5 years of money out of escrow immediately. (Repeat in next 5 years...)
I'd prefer tying the ability to get the money out of escrow to meeting the housing allocation *backlog*.

The @w3ctag gets punchy at the end of day 3 of our meeting and decides that an API should return Lies instead of Promises...

It says I'm not allowed to make calls in airplane mode (which is what I've used to force Wi-Fi calling). Didn't happen on my old phone.

Oh, yeah, and all those ringtones where I had finally built up a mental map of which sound meant what thing (and configured certain people to have certain ringtones)... yeah, you can't choose those ringtones anymore.
For example, can I get wifi calling with @projectfi back? Or get back the extra row of icons on my homescreen? It doesn't seem like it...

The experience of a new @Android phone is weird, even running the same OS version I was running, I think because having upgraded the old phone to that version meant I had a bunch of things configured the old way that I can't get back with a fresh install. Frustrating.

I find it a little disturbing that all (or some?) of the voicemail I "deleted" (with stock Android and @projectfi) comes back when I set up a new phone with the same SIM+account.
