  Rulya (@Rulyaxd) reported 2 minutes ago

  He typed one word into a browser tab and bought back 12 days of his year. The word is briefing. Manus runs a 300 word prompt behind it that reads his Gmail, calendar, Slack and news before he pours the coffee. The trigger is one word. Behind that word sits a saved prompt that acts like a chief of staff brief he wrote once and never has to write again. The prompt tells Manus to sort unread Gmail into ACTION REQUIRED and FYI DIGEST tiers. Then to pull the day's calendar and flag any free block over 90 minutes as a deep work window. After that a three to five sentence summary of active Slack threads, and finally three top stories from a chosen news niche in the last 48 hours with a two sentence brief on each. Then it tells Manus to render the whole thing as an HTML card following Apple Human Interface Guidelines. Frosted glass, SF Pro, light mode, one full width card per row. The output lands as a dashboard with his name on it at 6:30 AM EDT. Calendar block, emails needing an answer, Slack actions, and news items, all in one place he can scan in the time it takes to pour a coffee. The moat here is the prompt he wrote once and the trigger word he mapped it to. The model underneath is downstream of both. Manus just runs the workflow in a real cloud computer wired into Gmail, Calendar, Slack, and Google News. The people who still spend 40 minutes on their inbox every morning are typing more words than they need to type. Whoever writes a 300 word prompt once and maps it to a single trigger gets the last 40 minutes of every morning back forever. That is roughly 12 days a year that used to belong to Gmail. A quiet bag most productivity content pretends does not exist. What is the one workflow you rebuild from scratch every Monday morning that would collapse into a single word if you sat down for 20 minutes to write the prompt?

  @HustleBitch_ ARPANET being a DARPA project is not a conspiracy. It's in the history textbooks. What isn't: that it was built as a honeypot so every Gmail/Facebook click would train a giant AI "since the Reagan era," or that the wrong words summon a black SUV. Resource-sharing network in 1969 ≠ commercial surveillance in 2026. Those are real, separate problems (ads, data collection, actual warrantless programs). Mashing them into one Tesla-Grok jump scare is how you stop being able to talk about the real ones.

  IMAGINE COMPUTER JUST COMPRESSED 48 HOURS OF CLIENT VIDEO WORK INTO 8 HOURS 7 client spots that used to eat a week of evenings were finished in one working day. the whole run started with 4 lines. gmail → brief → generate → verify → send the video below shows how far the generation can go people turn into a gorilla, a pig and a coffee-holding groundhog while the street scene stays coherent. when one render came back 16:9 and 6 seconds instead of 9:16 and 15, the agent scrapped it, regenerated it and checked the real mp4 before delivery. then it attached the 14 mb file inside the original gmail thread. the full article below breaks down the entire run and the automation behind it.

  There's nothing you want to tell me. This is neo-colonialism, marginalization and stereotyping. You exploit us of our resources but you can't even give us access to basic things like creating an IG account and a Gmail account. Fix up, @instagram & @gmail

  Strike 2 for Ledger hackers... Look what showed up in my inbox. ALWAYs look at the actual sender of this email. I almost want to send this email address a malicious email where just by opening it I've installed a keylogger and way into their machine. @gmail you should immediately shut this account down. PS. I responded "Send Nudes"

  @BellatrixLux369 1.) "I can't confirm that." in the video you linked you choose to ignore. 2.) You do realize you can create a Gmail account using any name you select, yes? 3.) Additionally, married couples who trust one another have one another's logins. And even if not, most people save their passwords locally. You'll need more than a saved login with cached credentials.

  So the only way to fix it was to make a new Gmail and create a new wallet so now 1 account has tickets and one account has my cards. I am looking forward to that premium parking.

  American Factory Tracker 🇺🇸 (@FactoryTrackUSA) reported 27 minutes ago

  Well, this has been one of those maddening founder problems: Gmail flagged the nearly unused account I created for American Factory Tracker as suspected spam and locked me out. :/ I tried creating a replacement today, but Google said my phone number had been used too many times and trapped me in a verification loop—even after my son helped me try again from his phone—so I am officially done wrestling with Google for now. I’ve removed the inaccessible email from the website and made this X account AFT’s official point of contact while I continue building and expanding the database. If you know of a qualifying factory project I haven’t added yet, see something I should review, or are genuinely interested in collaborating, please reach out here; I’d truly love to hear from you. 🇺🇸

  4. OUTBOUND BUYER LIST- buyers for these hotels are few and far between, and you've really got to hunt them down. It's compiling a list of buyers who have bought a similar hotel in a 200-mile radius. Because it has my personal context, it already has access to my Gmail and can send out those emails via Resend. I'll review them before they go out

  Shae Feltz (@ShaeFeltz) reported 31 minutes ago

  @shownotover Pretend Gmail has a giant wall of light switches. Most switches start OFF. Every time someone makes a real Gmail account, the computer flips a few switches ON for that username. It doesn’t write the whole name down — it just flips a few switches using a secret code. When you type “CoolKid123”: The computer looks at those same few switches. If any of them is still OFF → the name is 100% free. You can have it! If all of them are ON → the name is probably taken. (It might be wrong once in a while, so Gmail double-checks the real list really quickly.)

  koto2992 (@koto2992) reported 35 minutes ago

  @jasminexETH That's because the problem is rarely actually your inbox. It's that the rest of your Google account shares a storage pool with your Gmail. And they haven't advertised that in over a decade. You think every company should have to honor anything they said ever? Not sustainable.

  Hermes is amazing debugging solving fixing problems on the desktop. I wrote an email in Thunderbird on a laptop that I have not many months, TB fails to send it via SMTP. Smth smth Gmail authorisation - but it has everything. A grey popup appears without content but with url on top. Hermes goes into a Sherlock Holmes mode. Follow crumbs, reads from ports on the laptop, checks what listens, figures there are >1 OAuth implementations in TB 140. Downloads it, reads the source, launches probes etc. Gets to the bottom of it, fixes it ("The MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 line is now commented out — Thunderbird will auto-detect the X11 session instead of forcing Wayland.") - the email gets sent. With 20 mins delay. While I was entertained watching Hermes performa a miracle from my PoV. I can not describe how impressive Hermes was chasing this. This is going to make the problems all of us have with computer admin go away. The 1st one that will integrate Agent + AI/IQ + OS in a PC such that the PC is not longer as dumb as a rock - this will kill off all other desktops.

  3. QuillBot QuillBot does one job, cleaning up your writing, and does it well. The extension drops paraphrasing, grammar checking and tone adjustment right into Gmail, Google Docs and most text boxes on the web. Free plan caps the paraphraser at 125 words, Premium runs about $9.95/month on the annual plan. It's not trying to be a chatbot, and that focus is exactly why people stick with it. Pros: – Integrates directly into Google Docs and Gmail – Nine paraphrasing modes give real control over tone – Cheaper than bundling grammar and paraphrasing tools separately Cons: – The 125 word free cap makes it hard to evaluate before paying – Grammar checker misses subtler clause issues that Grammarly catches – No content generation, so you still need something else for a blank page

  @0xPrajwal_ I didn't even know this was a problem. I'm looking to get a Samsung today so I'm guessing not to use the Gmail app. On iPhone I use the stock mail app.

  When Google shut down my You Tube channel. They also closed my Gmail. I’d had that account for decades. And it’s how old friends would contact me. Should tech companies be allowed to arbitrarily close people’s email accounts? Call me crazy. But I think not. I’m more annoyed about that than my You Tube channel. Sorry for Tadhg. It was promoting peace with Iran that did it for me.

  The uncomfortable truth: Gmail has 2 billion users. It's the most-used email platform on earth. Free. Powerful. Updated continuously by Google. And 95% of those 2 billion users have never opened Settings past the first page. They receive 85 emails a day in one flat list. They scroll. They miss things. They feel overwhelmed. They blame email itself "I hate email" when the problem was never email. It was configuration. Gmail ships unconfigured on purpose. A configured Gmail reduces time-on-platform. An unconfigured Gmail keeps you scrolling, clicking, searching, and spending 2 hours doing what 35 minutes could handle. Google measures engagement. Efficiency works against engagement. The productivity coach's last line: "I've organized 400+ inboxes. The pattern is always the same. The person is smart, successful, and drowning in email. They blame themselves 'I'm bad at email.' They're not. Gmail shipped them a race car with every setting on neutral. Nobody told them to shift gears. 9 settings. 20 minutes. The email problem you've had for 6 years solved in one afternoon. The inbox was never the problem. The defaults were." 12,847 unread emails. 20 minutes in Settings. 23 that needed attention. The Settings page has been there for 20 years. The features have been free since day one. The inbox you've been fighting was always one afternoon away from peace. Open Settings tonight. Change 9 things. The inbox finally works for you instead of against you.

  Gmail, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, X, are all free and ad supported. Why not AI? Lots of people are concerned about data sold to advertisers but this has been an issue with consumer apps for the longest time and yet billions of users are happily using these free apps.

  @thsottiaux Claude deleted my everything off 1 of my NVMe drives 4TB gone. Was too sloppy (sonnet 4.5 and earlier) Codex computer use is the only one that’s usable App is very good What needs to improve: - performance Nothing else, just this. Should be a culture of performance optimisation given this is a verifiable hill climbing task. I don’t understand why the app is so slow. If discord were this slow nobody would depend on it. Okay maybe make it so Gmail plugin allows me to connect all my Gmails

  Common Truth (@common_truth_) reported 57 minutes ago

  I’ve been using Grok for months to manage my to-do list and calendar. At first it was just me dumping notebook lists, emails, and random notes at it and asking it to organize them. Then I set up daily automations — a morning brief that pulled my calendar and Gmail, and an afternoon one that extracted action items from messages and notes. It helped a lot, but the same completed tasks kept coming back because everything still lived in too many places. Tonight we (@grok and I) finally fixed the real problem. One living Google Doc is now the single source of truth. I just talk to Grok — “mark this done,” “add this,” “what’s still open?” — and it updates the Doc. The automations will pull from that same document instead of hunting through the old mess. No more duplicate lists. No more zombie tasks. I’m genuinely blown away at how cleanly this came together. Feels like we cracked the actual system.

  5. Send Emails at Your Preferred Time (Schedule Send)! ⏰ Finished an email at 2 AM but want it to arrive at 9 AM? No problem! How to use it: • Once you’ve finished writing your email, click the Arrow (🔽) next to the "Send" button. • Select "Schedule send." • Choose your preferred date and time. Gmail will automatically send the email at the scheduled time.

  Grok Bot, first impression. Meh. Promising, but meh. Hindered by Grok 4.5 for coding and probably the harness. Great on paper, first harness which actually connects easily to multiple Gmail accounts. Love it for that. Great for multiple bots. Coding and solving problems properly 👎 Have a monorepo with many websites. Had one big problem, the fix was very targeted, didn’t look at the big picture. Each Pr fixed one problem, and introduced others. Gpt 5.6 sol to the rescue. Slow but worth it.
