I put together an IKEA chair, cleaned the litter tray, did some crocheting, played Animal Crossing, gave the neighbour his parcel and will be heating up dinner soon. Why, something special going on?
Like just about everything google has done since android 8, they are terrible. 8 tiles used to take up a fifth of my phone's screen and would leave plenty of space for notifications, now they fill up the entire screen with their ridiculous padding.
I really do wish there was an option to set a custom scaling to the quick settings tiles.
I feel like maybe I'm an outsider with this opinion, but I never liked the Material You UI at all. While it's nice having a few extra theming options available, I feel like it just makes such poor use of the screen space.
If you like the Miyoo Mini, you can check out Miyoo Mini Plus - it’s a bit more expensive, but from what I heard it’s manufactured a little bit better and has better triggers. I really like mine.
The API hasn’t shut down yet. I don’t know wtf they are doing at reddit hq but many of the apps, and nsfw posts, still work completely normally with no changes.
I thought they weren’t going to shut down the API, they were going to start charging for it. So 3rd party apps that are still going will start getting bills?
I quit going to movies when they started blaring loud obnoxious commercials under the guise of "entertainment" prior to the movies supposed start time. Going to a movie used to be a social thing you did with friends, but now with them blasting that shit at you at a volume that makes talking impossible what the fuck is even the point? The fact that ticket prices are climbing to this level with this kind of jack assery is ludicrous. And don't get me started on the 20-30 minutes of previews they show after a movies supposed start time. Just fuck this shit.
First time I remember going to see a movie was about 20 years ago. There might’ve been a movie preview or two; I don’t remember ads. Both “trailers” and ads have gotten progressively worse over the years - almost to the point that you’d think they alone fund the movie and the theatre - but you still pay a ridiculous ticket price.
i don’t mind true previews, but seeing standard TV ad garbage in a theatre that loud legitimately pissed me off last few times I went. swear they got louder. i also age incrementally, unceasingly, which doesn’t help
That’s the thing that bugs me so much. Most movies have around 10 minutes of ads. That is ample time to promote some of the lesser known movies that company has made but instead we get ads for insurance companies pretending that they are green, banks gaslighting you into thinking they care about you, McDonalds trying to trick you into their food I synonymous with a happy family and Matt Damon pushing cryto currency on you. I would rather watch an ad for a good movie.
lol what? you go to the movies to watch the movie… if you want to talk you can do it afterwards. also, it’s not like the ads take time off the actual movie
You’re paying $20 to watch a series of giant, unmutable, unskippable and loud ads. It’s like going to a restaurant and the waiter reminds you to stop by the car dealership on the way home to experience the thrill of the new Chevy Equinox. Get ready for a journey that combines style, performance, and endless possibilities.
