the dev has no online presence, but they updated the app one year ago to add android 13 support

it seems the whole dev profile is gone, maybe they felt the new google verification was a hassle

And also with a randomized name/logo that changes at every election, so there's no more "i vote for that party because my family voted for them since 200 years ago, and i will still vote for them even if they want to do immoral things"

marketing needs new numbers to push new phones. New version at least once a year or there's no reason to purchase a new phone

but on android < 15 it resets as soon as you plug the charger, so it's not as useful which app drained the battery during the day. Plus it's buried in the settings. (with a decent launcher it's possible to have a shortcut)

On android > 14 is a good enough replacement, though

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?

ma è sempre k9 con un'icona diversa o hanno effettivamente cambiato qualcosa?

Update 2: I inserted an European sim card, a few hours later I got the prompt where android asks if I want to replace Google and chrome with a different default search engine or browser (mandatory by law in Europe) and most important I finally got the prompt to update to Android 15 build AP3A.241005.015 which isn't the Verizon "certified" one from 6 months ago

So at least I got this problem solved, I'm a bit sad that I can't run lineageos (seller doesn't give the super secret bootloader unlocking program that nobody ever saw and needs, but says I have to ship to him and pay an extra fee - I'm sure he's just going to swap the phone with a T-Mobile one)

update: seller (which is a professional refurbisher) says that all his refurbished pixels are american/verizon and he used to flash the global bootloader via JTAG, but since the pixel 6/android 13 (pixel 6 with android < 12 can, then they patched it with some antirollover) it can't be done anymore. He says that nobody cares about bootloader unlocking and I'm literally the only one out of thousands of customers to have noticed the issue. He says that there's a way to jtag the global bootloader onto the verizon pixel 7 and allow bootloader unlocking but it will have a permanent "software tampered" warning on boot and it can't be locked anymore. Don't know how much true that is.

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...

It's still in alpha but hoarder is promising

It's designed to organize bookmarks, but can also support markdown notes with picture (a single picture, not multiple pictures)

Unfortunately at the moment the mobile app is so alpha that doesn't support creation or editing such notes, only new bookmarks or new photos.

It uses a headless chromium to make screenshots for URLs.

Optionally, can use a bullshit generator like ollama or openai api keys to automatically create a lot of useless tags to each note

It says "the video might be inappropriate for some users". Afaik those videos never worked because they required login with Google account

Now they aren't even using the excuse "but under the hospital there was a single Hamas member, so it warranted killing 100 kids"

TL;DR: app archiving, useless gemini shit, improvement for the 1% that own a foldable

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"

Intro: Webtoon is an app/website where (mostly Korean) comics are released in short episodes. Those episodes aren't released all at once but usually once a week, you have a free unlock a day and if you want you can have more by either watching an ad or by paying with coins, that are paid with real money. With the smallest purchase ($6), an episode can be unlocked with 3 coins (¢35) up to 7 (¢80). You can also skip the wait by paying with coins. I used it for years and I was ok by watching the ads at the end of each episode. It limited myself to one a day, otherwise I would scroll for hours. But, at the end of June 2024, they did the IPO, so that means ✨enshittification✨

So the guide on how to push away users to piracy:

  1. Have a scary reminder at the beginning of every episode that says that piracy is illegal. (I can't screenshot that without a rooted phone, it's blocked). This helps the user to have a daily notification that yes, this content is also available somewhere else and you're not bound to artificial limits.

  2. Put the last three episodes of a series started 3-4 years ago in perpetual paywall. No more "just wait one week to get the new episode". You want to see how that 200 episodes story that you're reading almost every day for 3 years ends? LOL pay $6 to buy a coins package!

  3. Now that the user is pissed that they can't know how the story ends, they'll just search it on the illegal sites, since over the past years they had to skip through 200 reminders that yes, this story is also available over there.
