Whats a github client?

Gotcha. Cheap firetv stick would be an option for people not as tech savvy as you.

I like my Ass Youtube!

Y not use smarttube next on tv?

And the network is way smaller since it only uses phones which have the tile app installed.

Probably because of Project Mainline.

Y do ez when complicated do trick?

Install Android Studio on your PC and create a new empty app. Plug in your mobile and deploy that app. Now select that app as the second one for the lower half. It should be all black, if its all white, change the background color.

Or look if there is an all black app in the store, probably a screen tester app.

Good to know. Never noticed it with my last phone (one plus). Its often not that clear which option is a Samsung addon and which is not.

Samsung has this feature build in and its called ‘Extra dim’ or similar. Its a quick setting one can get when customizing the tiles.

I used to use third party apps too, but it was annoying that you couldnt grant permissions or install new apps without deactivating the dimming app since it was a security risk to have an app which draws over other apps.

Never heard of geopdf but i found this:

So you can convert your files with qgis (free) on a computer and than have a broader selection of apps like locusgis. You could also try locus (non gis) or osmand which is foss.

Well to be honest, even if each and every website wouldnt use dar patterns and there is a clear choice to refuse with one click, it would still be obnoxious to decline everytime you visit a site.

Sweet!

This looks really promising. Not available on mobile though, but I will test on my desktop.

Thanks for the answer. If I remember correctly, this plugin works by accepting all cookies in the background. Is this correct?

If so, do you also have some kind of cookie cleanup policy/plugin? Or do you really dont care about cookies?

I am using ublock and dark reader. Both are available for a long time now. Also using tampermonkey which came available some months ago.

I like what other people describe as ‘bloat’ on a Samsung. But I am a powetuser who actually uses a lof these functions. Sure i dont need two calenders. But i can just not activate the samsung one and hide it in the launcher. Also i would say that samsung has a better ecosystem. I am also using a samsung tablet which is superb and some samsung smart tags. If you get a pixel you dont really have an option to use any working smart tag.

Yeah that was my first too. I remember that I found the S2 ridiculously large when it came out. Also I was super jelous for the build quality of the iPhone 4 which was released at the same time. Glad that these times are over.

I meant selled it on craigslist or something.

When the phone (or whatever) is still usable I always prefer to sell it. You usually get more money and the usable product gets used some more instead of getting destroyed.

Why for electric bikes and not just any bike? And arent the airtags peeeping when moved and the owners iphone isnt around? Which makes them useless for that purpose anyways.

Also a third idea: Write the devs of the app to offer two versions, one with original package name and one without it, that way users can choose. Thats not an uncommon thing to do, I think Youtube Vanced did that.

I know of two ways:

1. Use a virtualization app like Parallel Space (Play Store). The way I understand it is that it creates some kind of virtualization where you can clone your installed apps into. They than work independent from each other.

2. Alter the package name. Apps are distinguished by package name. When you alter it for an apk you can install it without overwriting the app with the original apk. Revanced Managar (found on github) should be able to do this. I wasnt successful with it though the last time i tried. But I bet that there are working solutions out there.

Display needs a lot of battery, less of it and you dont need such a big one. Than make it two millimeters thicker and the problem is solved.
