not called Brad but rather a lad, from Bradford in the UK.

Enjoys breaking apps, escooters, spam rings and sometimes bones, but not my own. That sucks.

Mary’s family, who live in an area in which relations with police have been fraught for many years, are concerned that members of their community may learn about the relationship and wrongly conclude that she knowingly collaborated with police.

Also known as a “pig fucker”.

You get labelled with that round 'ere and things are never the same again. Horrible stigma.

(Galnet) MIUI at one point used to be the ROM to install back in the day.

Now, typing from this Mi 11 meme it’s a whole different kettle of fish. Security app is what I would call snake oil leaning for towards spyware, then all the other uninstallable apps from MIUI are tracking apps / dupes.

To be honest though being able to uninstall YouTube should be a given but Google won’t allow that either, even though it’s a “website”.

Not only security implications, it’s also the time sink and apps crying about Safetynet being unable to be passed I find the Pihole + browser extensions / Tampermonkey etc somewhat of a sweet compromise.

I keep getting nagged by someone to try either AdGuard or NextDNS on my Pi but also…lazy/busy at work :(

Another Xiaomi (M11 Lite) owner here and when I seen your post last night I checked my average temps and even now, while I’m fast charging it it generally never gets much hotter than the ambient temperature (~25°) during normal use. And like someone else said using a slow charger wouldn’t see mine go up to 30°+ whilst charging.

Hazard a guess, those users are on Android 7 or less and as per the description of the Play Store listing

If your device is running Android 7 or an earlier version, it will not receive an update for this app. This app may indicate that it is not compatible with your device, but this does not mean that the app is malfunctioning or causing your device to malfunction.

This is making them take to the Play Store perhaps? Thing is, the app is showing last updated in Feb 2023 for me so, I dunno.

I use FlowX (formerly Weather bomb).

Might not be the prettiest of apps but sure gives up lots of data from different sources, and someone else said I like the radar aspect of it.

ladfrombrad,
@ladfrombrad@lemdro.id avatar

It’s simply being able to swipe up/down/left/right on the radar to scan the different factors of weather coming it, especially when I’m going to work.

I work outside all day long but also travel to work on an escooter too so knowing if it’s gonna be windy/pissing it down or, sunny (UK here, this is rare) factors in how I arrive by foot/scoot and what I need to wear that day.

Technically, you can actually by changing this developer setting

If your screen never turns off whilst charging then fixed it, right?

…runs away. 😇

@ladfrombrad@lemdro.id avatar

Yeah I’m just been a little tongue in cheek and keeping your screen active would probably make Greta mad and possibly lead to burn in on your screen.

Both of these are undesirable, and there might be something out there for ya. Gotta ask, why, do you want this specifically?

Like I unplug maybe once a day so it’s not an issue here, but curious why it’s irking you?

is anyone else bothered by the lack of the 3 buttons at the bottom

So i just bought Asus rog phone 6d and im extremely bothered by the lack of the back ,home and whatewer is the 3 one called buttons on the news androids. Is this something you all got used to with time or does this still bother you( IT really fells much less intuitive compared to the old 3 buttons ,alghtough preferably i would...

ladfrombrad,
@ladfrombrad@lemdro.id avatar

Yeah, I’m lucky that I have the option of both gesture or three button nav of which, I still use the latter because it’s better for me.

I was big on gestures back in the day with LMT and something I’ve found with MiuiOS is they now have that with Quick Ball as it’s called. It’s ace, and also a bit like AOSP Browser side gestures which I also used to use.

Further, slightly off topic ranting? Yes, where I work they currently have an obsession with installing touchscreens on HMI panels to control machinery. Problem is the touch resolution on them is dogshit so peeps end up start trying to use with them with their pens etc and physically damage the screen.

Before these touchscreen “interfaces”, we had nice IP68 physical buttons on a Siemens panel that did the very same functions. Sickens me how much they cost for a lower quality interface.

I just checked the tiny text on the MHL cable I have (never been used since I have none of those devices) and it seems you’re gucci with your P30

Like others say, blind tapping might be the best option here and if @elver can share a screenshot of where that clicky is…bingo?

I’d also check out some of the dedicated Sun Locator apps

play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.andymst…

Wasn’t this one I used prior trying to figure out if some solar powered LED lights I’d bought for someone’s back yard would work, but it did help me figure out that they’d have never have got enough sunlight to power them and instead gave them away to someone else with a much more lit place :/

It’s an interesting question this and whether Samsung is willing to use GSI’s / DSU.

Last time I checked that was a negative?

Horsey, to askandroid

iPhone user here:

I'm sorry if this is a really controversial question, but I really enjoy the system-wide transparency and glassUI of iOS. I want to migrate to Android, but the big manufacturers (Samsung, Google, OnePlus, etc) all have a flat UI design by contrast. In my research, the closest I could find is MIUI, but the phones that run MIUI don't support all the carrier bands in the USA. Does android really not have the option of a glassy transparent UI?

ladfrombrad,
@ladfrombrad@lemdro.id avatar

You’re never going to find that on any OEM skin simply because some apps themselves don’t adhere to certain (Material/other) Guidelines / aren’t on a particular version of Android.

Hell, this app from Lemmy I’m using doesn’t have context or nothing else other than reply to in a blank reply box

…deep grumbly sounds…

Problem with highly specialised and niche communities is you always run foul of having too many Help Vampires and, from my scant playing with my cheapo Chromebook and others asking about how it runs / does it play games (no, it doesn’t have an accelerometer) etc I’d be cautious.

For example having c/Apple is great but when you get down to c/iOS that’s when you see moar Vampires + screenshots of issues and you know my thoughts on those…

[COMPLETED] Proxy tuning

Earlier today, I identified the root cause of an issue causing annoying 502 errors intermittently. If you’ve ever had an action infinitely load until you refreshed the page, that is this issue. I deployed a fix, and am slowly scaling it down to stress test it. If you encounter an infinite loading occurrence or an HTTP 502...

Is it this post you’re referring too?

There was a recent migration of the /pictrs folder here and some thumbnails didn’t get stored whilst submissions were still occuring, and I’m not sure editing a database is wise to fix it. Disclaimer, am numpty.

Should be noted it’s fairly simple to do this on any Android phone with Tasker.
