Basically the title I installed a game, played some, got bored and wanna delete it but then remembered that I used to have a tab long time ago and we’d mess with it by installing a ton of games , So at a point it got too hangy that we deleted every game but it still wouldn’t work as good so we had to factory reset the thing...
Deleting an app from any device regardless of OS should generally remove all related files, except in cases where the app asks you if you’d like to keep certain files, such as personal data or saved game files. However that’s not to say that they always remove related files, things such as updates can leave files in particular temporary directories, some of these are not always removed as part of the update process and so they are not something which would be recognised during the removal of the application either.
These kind of temporary files and folders being left behind are why there has always been reasons behind creating apps to “boost” you device performance by removing some of these left over junk files but are also the reason that sometimes its better to just totally reset the device, clear everything out and start again.
I know there was a time I would pretty much do this on a yearly basis for my own computer to try and keep it at a close to peak performance level.
I remember learning about this in the early 00’s but then the textbooks were saying about this newer memory technology which the world has moved to known as DDR! Makes me feel so old now 👵

How are acts such as this not treated the same as though one person had decided to do this to 5 people? What’s the point of a CEO or Director if not to step in at times like this and do the right thing? And if they don’t, they face the consequences.
I understand its all legal BS that negates the responsibility, but it just doesn’t seem logical regardless of how its framed.
You wanna talk Chinese spyware, why are they not outright banning Temu? That’s a much better documented case of actually being spyware.
In terms of Tiktok being spyware, they are tracking users in much the same ways that every other big social media company is. Should other nations be worried about Facebook sharing that data with the US govt to produce psyops campaigns against foreign nations?
I’m against any country blocking access to things in the name of “national security” and providing little to no evidence on it. Its been done too many times to trojan horse in other malicious activities that governments want to do.

Hey everyone, I live in a dorm like apartment where my Internet plan is part of my contract. I have a monthly data limit which just isn’t enough for me. Buying additional data is stupid expensive.

Just get an old wireless router that can also work as a WiFi extender/access point. Wireless routers have DNS and NTP functions so they consistently call out to servers for these functions, this way you can just connect to your modem which is forwarding the internet from your provider.
You should be able to find a used modem for cheap if you don’t already have one spare.
I strongly disagree with humans being self absorbed assholes. Capitalism promotes humans being self absorbed greedy assholes.
There are plenty of excellent examples of humans being selfless and working together in spite of a corrupt self-absorbed system.
The world is going to shit right no and a lot of stuff feels hopeless and like we have nothing to look forward to, but if we give up on our fellow humans then who can we work with to pull the world out of all this shit?
I have no idea what this game is but the person on the left looks like someone who’s been in battle and is still in some sort of a battle and the person on the right looks like an influencer cosplaying the person on the left
I have been thinking about self-hosting my personal photos on my linux server. After the recent backdoor was detected I’m more hesitant to do so especially because i’m no security expert and don’t have the time and knowledge to audit my server. All I’ve done so far is disabling password logins and changing the ssh port....
The alternative is you could use a Windows server… Bear in mind a lot of code for windows is private and isn’t open to scrutiny from the public so chances are there could possibly be built-in backdoors no one is aware of except for Microsoft or there are backdoors which are only known to a hacker who’s discovered them.
The recent xz backdoor, I think is a stellar example of how powerful open source software can be, a community came together and noticed this in such a short period of time and had a way to quickly resolve this without this being a large scale issue, looking back at things like Log4j which caused so much pain across the entire industry, we are so lucky to have open source software communities.
Is being a garbage collector, cashier, restaurant worker or other entry level type of jobs something we should constantly be shitting on? Whilst they aren’t the most fancy and thrilling jobs out there, they do offer some freedom in that you do your job and you go home. Is being a doctor really that amazing, years of learning, starting out with a heap of debt from college, then having to work long hours and constantly face stressful situations. The life of a doctor doesn’t sound all that social.
I know Calibre can remove DRM, but it seems that Calibre does not remove things like watermarks, references to the buyer by name, etc. Now maybe I can try to find those manually, but that is an error prone process. Plus, what if they embed a unique digital signature that ties back to me? I understand that this is a very uncommon...
I’m an idiot so excuse me if this is just way too simple. If you’re able to remove DRM and get the file, is it not just possible to copy the content out of the file and make a brand new file?
I know I’m probably over simplifying things but I know if I’m paranoid about stuff like exif data in an image, if I’m in a pinch I’ll just screenshot the original image instead.

Is streamio similar to Kodi? I used to use that back in the day and it was good, then suddenly it got super popular and a bunch of the plugins were taken down/blocked by ISP’s and I moved back to torrenting
