That feels too easy for the requirements they’re announcing, no? It just adds like 12 taps to scammer’s instructions, 10 of which is the taps to show developer menu.

Ooh, cool! Might be my new phone when the current one cacks or Android becomes completely unusable.

My bet is that they will just remove the GUI settings for alternative APK installation sources, and require you to explicitly allow them via terminal (adb shell or similar). This will probably scare off 99% of regular users, while keeping devs relatively happy. The end result (making it harder to install FOSS and pirated software) will still be achieved.

That was the plan before this latest announcement. Presumably this will be something different, hopefully allowing F-Droid and friends to keep working on-device somehow.

Nothing wrong with it, if you just use it for music listening/youtube/light browsing/satnav/messaging, snapdragon845 is more than enough. Consumables like batteries and back glass can be bought new from AliExpress for like $10. The screen is OLED and so prone to burn-in, but will probably last at least a few more years before cacking it completely.

Probably not too good for modern gaming and stuff, but probably passable for most tasks.

Fairphones are probably not daily-able for now, sadly. E.g. on FP4 GPS doesn’t work at all and there are issues with charging/battery reporting AFAIR. OnePlus 6 is definitely more promising ATM, but there are camera issues and you need to do a weird reflashing dance to get GPS to work. Otherwise it’s… passable as a daily phone.

Continuing my train of thought from another comment, you can write a letter to an older self. I’m sure there are ways to ensure delivery if society doesn’t collapse.

It got me thinking about Free Four, actually

If this was written by an actual first grader, it would be metal as fuck to set up a time capsule so that they recieve this letter when they reach retirement.

It’s like a clown. Funny to watch it goof about from afar, but when it comes to you OH FUCK OH SHIT THERE’S A CLOWN STARING AT ME FROM THE WINDOW AND PLOTTING A RIGHT-WING COUP

There are only 3 possibilities

• Voyager is a battery hog
• You don’t use your phone much
• You, together with your army of alts is single-handedly responsible for half of lemmy content

This aint a shitpost, this is just a fact

wake up honey, new yogthos lore just dropped

You definitely shouldn’t look through this topic, but especially avoid titles tagged “Original + Sub (Eng)”. I have never done anything like that and advise everyone to avoid using that website. That would be illegal!

I assume many people just live in a sanitized, sterile internet created by Google/Meta et al. They might have never encountered the gooner/pervert culture before. Again, when most people see “cameo” their mind doesn’t jump to “fetish porn cameo”. As such, I don’t think there was real consent here.

She consented to something but didn’t consider/understand what that something implies. While it might be obvious for terminally online people, most people don’t expect “cameos” to necessarily mean “fetish porn cameos”.

Well, I still hear it a lot. Would be great to replace it with some other greeting that made more literal sense.

Ah, sorry, missed the context

It’s a word predictor. It is good at simple text processing. Think local code refactoring, changing the style or structure of a small text piece, or summarizing small text pieces into even smaller text pieces. It is ok at synthesizing new text that has similar structure to the training corpus. Think generating repetitive boilerplate or copywriting. It is very bad at recalling or checking facts, logic, mathematics, and everything else that people seem to be using it for nowadays.
