Nice try, openai bot (/s)

LOL genuinely thought it was a case of "engineer hates the user", instead it was a case "management said we need to save 5 cents for the voltage regulator"

Google enforces rules only against small devs. Big companies are allowed to do what the fuck they want.

Example with one of those "ad viewing apps disguised as games", every single screenshot is misleading, showing a different game to what actually will be downloaded. It's clearly a violation of Google Play terms that read:

Screenshots must demonstrate the actual in-app or in-game experience, focusing on the core features and content so users can anticipate what the app or game experience will be like. Use captured footage of the app or game itself.

In the example not a single screenshot demonstrate the actual game experience.

Google sees the big cash influx from ad impressions and IAP from whales and is closing all the eyes

Tencent and Alibaba instead are still allowed to illegally fingerprint and track the user by placing tracking data in /Pictures/.gs_fs0 which for some reason they can access even without storage/photo permission

I saw a bank in my country requiring to have the permission for apps usage, the one that you have to go in settings and toggle it. Refuse and it closes the app

I don't know a single bank that hasn't reinvented the wheel and is using their app as a glorified authentication app for generating totp codes

And then i complained that my bank blocked access if adb was enabled...

If there's no loan attached to that account, for me this message reads "sorry, we don't want you as a customer. Please contact a bank teller to have a full refund, uninstall this app and don't forget to leave a 1 star review"

I'm not willing to compromise on this shit. My phone is my phone.

No it shouldn't validate the license, at the time I purchased it using a Google workspace legacy account and when they raised the prices I deleted the account and it didn't complain

Put the apk on an old android 8 phone and doesn't crash. One day I'll try to inspect logcat to see if it's something that can be fixed

[-] Moonrise2473@feddit.it 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

main issue is that i purchased the pro, and there's only the free over there... wait! I can take the apk from the old phone before I wipe it! OMG why i didn't thought of that, i'm dumb. (no sarcasm, I actually forgot to take the apk from the old phone and i was about to wipe it! Thank you for mentioning that!)

edit: fuck.... on android 15 the app crashes when going in background... so it's the dev that intentionally delisted for everyone as low sales = patch not worth the time 😢

It's a cr2032 from Duracell with that coating, later I'm going to try that

I hate this scale, it says low battery and shuts off after just 3 months of sitting in the drawer. It infuriates me that there's still a lot of energy in the battery, I can use that in remote controls with no issues

If there's enough battery to say "low battery", then there's enough battery to show the measurements!

I can't believe everyone knows such an obscure reference

Raid wasn't designed for data safety but to minimize downtime. Just swap the drive an continue operating the server seamlessly. Full backups are still required as the chance of complete failure isn't zero

I went to install gsam battery monitor on a new phone and it looks like it has been delisted recently.

Does anyone has more info on that? It was a staple on my phones since almost a decade...

Any alternative that shows a graph with rate of charge/discharge?

I bought a refurbished pixel 7 in europe. I assumed it was the european version (GVU6C).

I tested it and it appeared functional in all functions, so i released the escrow to the seller.

Now because I don't trust the software hasn't been tampered, I wanted to clean it with flash.android.com but... can't because it can't unlock the bootloader (even if i connect to internet and call the code ##2432546## to get the "checkin requested" from google play services)

It looks like i have the model GQML3 for Verizon which can't be bootloader unlocked. FUCK! I especially bought this because it can unlock the bootloader...

Anyway.... about restoring the original software....

Phone says "phone is with latest update installed" with android 14 and security update from 5 june 2024.

Can I flash the full image for android 15 with october security update or i risk a brick? Do I need to wait for the lazy fucks at verizon to "certify" the android 15 update? Those fuckers take ages to "certify" the updates...

They can't sell the $699 AI party trick that requires a $24 subscription so they slashed the price to $499. Unfortunately it's still $500 too expensive for what's worth.

Maybe at $10 someone could buy it as a Halloween costume prop and even pay a whole month of subscription just to show off the novelty

A decade ago I used BitTorrent Sync. Then it became Resilio Sync. Then with Resilio Sync 2 they nerfed the free app to a point that I just removed that from all my computers and switched to syncthing.

Yesterday I was watching my server struggling when syncthing was doing the periodic scan of a directory with hundreds of thousands of files and then i thought, "maybe Resilio Sync uses less resources or doesn't waste time reindexing a static directory for the nth time"

I went to see their website and now with the new version 3, all the features are back. The business plan now is to sell the app to enterprises at unaffordable prices rather to persuade consumers to pay a subscription to self host their syncing server

I wanted to try it but now they say docker version is discontinued, need to install the package to bare metal. Ugh... So I desisted and decided to stay with syncthing

Now with the news of the impending discontinuation of syncthing android app, everything changes. Without Android support, syncthing is no more irreplaceable for me.

So, has anyone tried Resilio Sync 3? Is it good?

I saw a 3d printer using plastic pellets instead of filament.

Is this a good idea? Because I never saw anyone doing this.

Seller says "in this way it won't run out of filament" but I have the impression of imprecise extrusions (machine was fitted with a big 0.8mm nozzle)

I got a really weird problem.

Two years ago bought a set of 4x DDR4 3200 16gb each, single sided and placed them in a ryzen 5600 desktop computer, which i almost never turned it off. It worked without issue.

This weekend I wanted to dust off the PC, so I took all the components out, replaced the thermal paste and so on.

Turned on the PC again, worked apparently without issues until after a while Linux was pissed about going out of memory. Out of memory? With 64gb of RAM? I checked with dmidecode -t memory and I saw that a channel was reporting completely empty.

Shut down the PC, reinserted the second channel, rebooted, saw 64gb. One hour later, kernel panic. Rebooted in memtest86+, error in memory. What? Removed one module, error. Removed two modules, no error. Switched the modules, no error. What??

Placed the two modules that are passing the test in another computer, error. Put back in the original computer, pass test. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Now I downclocked from 3200 to 2400 and everything seems working fine.

What could be? Have I been cursed?

After a few reinsertions do the slots degrade to a point that can't sustain 3200 anymore?

Segnalato abuso a aruba, dice che magari non è effettivamente phishing e che magari è effettivamente legittima... (il link scarica un file js contenente sicuramente malware da indirizzi ip residenziali, mentre dice 404 not found da ip datacenter/vpn/esteri, l'operatore ha provato ad aprire il link e non ha funzionato)

Inoltre, con mio sgomento, ho scoperto che su pec non è possibile impostare filtri o spam e secondo il supporto aruba questo è da design perché su pec bisogna ricevere tutto sempre, per legge, anche se è phishing, malware o spam. Quindi, è sufficiente pagare 5 euro l'anno ad aruba e si ha una licenza a mandare spam/phishing illimitata.

Io davo per scontato che una ferramenta non vendesse esclusivamente ferramenta ma anche vernici, materiale elettrico e idraulico. Certo, non con un' ampia gamma di scelta che può fornire un negozio dedicato, però almeno due spine e le due serie BTicino e Vimar più diffuse forse sì.

Invece sono rimasto stupito a vedere che questa ferramenta grande, con ben 4 locali abbia messo fuori un cartello che dice "per evitare di perdere tempo in coda, in questa ferramenta vendiamo solo ferramenta e non materiale elettrico e idraulico"
