There are no X11 fees, this is a joke about X=X11 and not X=Twitter

Their phones are up there in software support at least. Only true contender at this point is Samsung.

Nest Hub for $600? Which one is that expensive?

I’m fine with (takedown-only) backdoors only for the big tech companies, as long as you’re allowed to self host without backdoors.

Deleting it makes no sense with the way Android partitioning works. Disabling it prevents any of the code from running. The only way to find it again is to manually go into the settings of your phone and search for disabled apps.

@Amir@lemmy.ml avatar

Stock Android is AOSP + Google Apps, which is a part that has become so integral to Android that you wouldn’t be comfortable with actually running just AOSP anymore.

Amir ,
@Amir@lemmy.ml avatar

Yes. Android has a separate partition with a fixed size that stores all preinstalled apps. Deleting one of them wouldn’t help with giving more storage for user files, all it would do is break the ability to restore everything with a factory reset

Amir ,
@Amir@lemmy.ml avatar

Would take more internet bandwidth and make first boot slower. Would also reduce performance for thise apps, as this way they can have pre-optimized versions of every app.

Mp3s from YT are garbage quality, it’s double transcoding from YT’s already low quality input.

Amir ,
@Amir@lemmy.ml avatar

Well if you save the opus or aac it’s only single lossy compression, not double unless the uploader used a lossy file as their input. But if that was the case, ripping mp3 would be triple lossy compression…

Amir ,
@Amir@lemmy.ml avatar

Then you probably don’t know any better because the vast majority of YT uploads are terrible quality. If you have anywhere near decent headphones/earbuds you can hear the difference immediately.

You’re an experienced player but create a new account to get matched against noobs. Since the game is free, there’s no cost to doing so.

How is this getting upvoted, zram is a ram compression technique of a few % and has nothing to do with preloading strategies

Edit: mb, apparently its behaviour now also includes general purpose cache. Back in the day, I remembered that it would only help for low ram devices to make better usage of existing ram.

This is why I don’t trust using proprietary apps from small startups no matter how reliable the startup might seem.

I made one at !tft but there’s so little interest in Riot Games even that I think it’s not worth it

Since NVIDIA shit the bed this gen for everything under $599 4070, these seem like decent options at their respective price points

I search for “update duration Android OEMs” and to no one’s surprise find there are only 3 flagships with ok support: Google, Samsung, OnePlus

[Rant] Cloud service is not a reason to have phones with only 128 GB

I am in the process of looking between repairing my phone or switching to a new one. And the no brainer evolution to the OnePlus 7 Pro I have is a Pixel phone. Pixel Phones are definitely not perfect, I know that the battery would fall faster than other phones but hey, that’s ok, google chip in it, possibility to go...

You can get a small USB dongle for media if you want. Android supports USB for added storage for media.

Amir ,
@Amir@lemmy.ml avatar

You’re meming but do you really need access to an entire 50GB music library at all times? Do you need 45GB of other media?

I mean, I know I do, but I paid the €80 premium to get a 256GB phone variant instead.

I add games I plan to play or might play in the coming year(s) to favorites and then collapse the non-favorites tab.

The combat becomes much better when you gain some levels. Early you only have few spell slots and cool bonus actions. I can assure you it gets better the longer you keep going, especially if you loot all the usable consumables (scrolls, arrows, etc)

Yeah the real problem is giving Facebook any control at all over your messaging experience.

I can confirm this works on the new v18.29 and v18.30 apks.

I’m with the group that refuses to ever watch YT ads, but I guess it does help reduce bandwidth if they kick everyone off that’s using an adblocker.

Revealed: WHO aspartame safety panel linked to alleged Coca-Cola front group (www.theguardian.com)

It uncovered eight WHO panelists involved with assessing safe levels of aspartame consumption who are beverage industry consultants who currently or previously worked with the alleged Coke front group, International Life Sciences Institute (Ilsi)....

You can also just get fruity syrup and make syrup juice with a lot of water.

Amir ,
@Amir@lemmy.ml avatar

Everything has a negative health impact, literally even water does. The question is always about cumulative and spontaneous dosage. At what point does it become bad for you.

One common explanation I’ve seen for aspartame is that it makes your body think you’re drinking sugar while no sugar is being absorbed. This is then potentially harmful for those with a predisposition for diabetes.

Amir ,
@Amir@lemmy.ml avatar

It’s possible that the increased risk of diabetes snowballs into an increased risk of cancer from diabetes’ secondary conditions. Making claims about “these amino acids are harmless so the substance is harmless” disregards the possible chains of events that could actually cause more conditions.

The difference is that now you have the option to go to another instance and still access the same content. It’s not ideal but much better than yhe community being permanently gone.

Profit for game industry is relative to sales, because the cost per digital game is practically $0, it’s all paid upfront.

You can sell a game for 1 cent and if all people on the planet buy it, it will probably still turn a profit.
