:facepalm:

Completely missed the non-capitalisation on the HTC one. Oops

I had both HTC One’s and while the camera on both of them especially the m7 was dire purple durple shite, the battery life was never an issue for me and was when I first started seeing 6hr+ SOT constantly.

Sticker repository? lol, Telegram has that market cornered and you know it :)

https://matrix.org/ is probably the only reasonable solution to your problem but reading between the lines you’re inferring that Telegram is dead in the water.

I’m a popcorn fanantic and await to see the, corns?

Yep yep I bought a family member a couple of those fancy GLi routers that come with AdGuard built in.

It’s scary what a household’s tracked without it would look like, and they are none the wiser to the shit getting sinkholed to this day thankfully.

I’m down to 10% bollocks via NextDNS

and aim to bring it down further by dumping any apps/services that want to bum fugg me.

I felt like a right noobie when one of my colleagues said he’d got a Pixel tablet via the Play Store and asked him how he’d won it.

Apparently I don’t install and play shittons of games like them.

£500 was tempting to look into it further but as you say, that news pissed me off because I now know my mum is gonna install some bullshit that one of those guys might have picked up on.

That’s kinda weird.

I’ve had a Meme11 Lite for a couple of years now and just bought another Poco. I don’t see no ads whatsoever, after I told Wallpaper Carousel to not nag me no more.

Alright I use NextDNS across router / device level but like I say I get none of these complaints and think it’s global releases for some?

I’m a capt’ three phones at the moment

While I’ve had my backup Samsung M12 with a 1pmobile SIM in my work locker for a couple of years now simply as an emergency backup, I’m also currently rocking two Xiaomi’s so I can test remote connections to a family members server via work WiFi/Tailscale.

My main issue is while I wear cargo pants at work, carrying two phones is more wieldy than you’d think and there’s also something else I did notice the other day with the Find My Device news.

I forgot where, I left my main phone the other day and my locker is a literal Faraday cage according to FMD? 10 minutes of panic :/

You’d think they’d include an ethernet port on the device itself.

Or, hopefully they include a power brick with a RJ45 port. WiFi for streaming large high bitrate files is less than ideal especially if it’s touted as a set top streaming box.

my comment meant I was preparing to fight.

You’re not.

Google are thou hence the shadowboxing reference.

It’s an analogy

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadowboxing

Preparing to fight beforehand.

how much they must value our personal data, that it only just now became worthwile to fight blockers with this much effort and PR/image depreciation.

You got it, on the nose.

Shadow boxing is always good practice.

Because generally the TSA in Yankland are overly aggressive, but to be fair it can happen anywhere and here in the UK if they snag you into the backroom and want to search your phone you’re screwed either way since they, can.

We’re talking about Nintendo here, and we all remember Sony taking away things that made things better too, right?

Seems a bit dubious doesn’t it, especially since they’d be compromising any investigation by Tweeting about it in the first place.

:thinking_gif:

Yeah I’m unsure of the scheduling of posts on Lemmy, and I know @coles is looking into some form of Automod here on lemdro.id.

Let me poke a few more others ;)

I’m unsure if there’s something on Lemmy for that, but it’s definitely something that helps the community since most mod actions I recall are poking people in the right direction like PAAFM.

Awesome team and community over there, and there is the old wiki pages too 🤔

Was there an advert for Age of War in the article that made your script include it here randomly?

It’s ridiculous they don’t include either and I say that as someone who doesn’t actually need either, really.

But it’s nice to be able to backup my DCIM folder to the SDcard and then sync that via a network share on a regular basis, especially if I hadn’t got adb enabled and/or I had a smashed screen?

It also allows me to just wipe my internal storage anytime without worry because I don’t record many videos and photos take up fugg all storage with a 3.2.1 backup plan.

edit: What’s the point of excluding, a headphone jack too I feel is the real question.

Hold on a second Mister OP, you missed the most important pros and cons.

Has an IR Blaster thank fuck, but, is missing a 3.5mm jack and SDCard.

I know these “cons” are meme complaints by now and while I’ve actually used Bluetooth earbuds before Android was a thing (see, jackless Sony Walkman W850…), but feel you should be including them as cons since many revel for those simple hardware bonuses we’re used to from Xiaomi.

Alas :(

No doubt, and there used to be an app called “all for one IR remote” or something like that that I can’t find from a cursory skim.

It allowed programming of codes from your existing remotes and also the bonus of using a URI for a IR code which then meant you could fire them off with other apps.

Problem these days is the hardware that supports IR Blasters is controlled by the likes of Xiaomi, and the apps available to use said hardware is limited to in-built system apps :/
