I gave up on Logitech after buying a Logitech “Harmony” universal remote years ago. Normally you just have to toss a code or two into a universal remote to get it to work with your device, but I guess that would have been too easy for them.
Instead, you have to download their terrible app, create an account, connect the remote via usb, and give logitech all the details about every device you own that you’d like to use it for. Want to change a single detail? Gotta plug the remote back into the pc, launch the app, sign in, and wait until your firstborn goes to college while it apparently connects to the last working Commodore 64 hidden somewhere in the Amazon rainforest.
I should not need to report to some corporation every time I want to change the slightest thing on the remote I paid good money for.
Have you tried Portal Reloaded yet? It’s pretty good as well and as of the June 2023 “Cooperative Update” adds 20 new levels. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal_Reloaded

I’ve used “Lapse it Pro” on one of my older phones and it worked well, but I can’t say anything about the free version tho, and there’s probably something better by now considering that app is pretty old already.
Another option if you can’t find a good time lapse app is to set up the phone as an ip webcam and use something like Ispy (Camera security app) on a wifi connected pc to save a snapshot every hour (or whatever you set it to do, it has timelapse functionality, as well as motion sense.)
or if you’re into science stuff “Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey” Produced by Seth Mcfarlane with Niel Degrasee Tyson en.wikipedia.org/…/Cosmos:_A_Spacetime_Odyssey (Not really a cartoon, but it’s still a good watch.)
I know I’d want to know about my families history, their experiences, their hardships. I think they’d want to be remembered too for what they sacrificed and had to deal with.
Hey all, just wanted to see if anyone had any resources on how to watch live TV. Big Brother starts tonight and the fiance would like to watch it but I don’t have cable. Anything you guys can recommend?
There’s 2400 channels there, but it’s kind of hit and miss… some aren’t broadcasting or are geo-blocked etc but there’s still a lot of ok ones to go through.
Madeline: Science denial really grinds my metaphorical gears, and Flat Earthers are some of the most egregious about it. So manhandle them into strait jackets and shove them in the damn rocket already.
I feel that way about most deniers/conspiracy theorists/religious nuts etc but we’re always going to have them.
I wouldn’t be sad if these flat earthers went to find this supposed edge of the world and jumped off though. We have enough problems here on “God’s dinner plate flying through space.”
