I tried four different versions from APK mirror, and all of them gave me different errors when I went to install them after patching them.

the one I have installed on my old Google Pixel 8 works just fine, but I can't get it installed on this Google Pixel 7

 

usually when I have a 16:9 video playing up top, it just fills the entire space because that's the aspect ratio remaining. as you can see, this one has decided to throw black borders all the way around it to shrink it even farther

because I haven't been paying attention, and it still works for everything I need it to work for. is there a security issue with continuing to use it? and is there a good replacement (ie., a mobile browser that uses regular Chrome extensions)

thank you for confirming that I'm not insane!

yeah. I think Android 12 or 13? I kept sending them feedback for like 6 months and then just left it.

(when you hit the recents button) I can't believe they actually restored a feature that they'd removed by accident during an update this is wild. how long has it been back? how many years did it take them to accomplish this

have you heard the FBI tapes of mobsters talking about the sopranos? "is that supposed to be us?" "yeah you moron, that was the meat shop right over on the corner."

pretty much any depiction of a heroin user outside of The Wire or Pulp Fiction. was it Trainspotting that had them walking on walls? or was that one of the Sherlock Holmes adaptations where he was using heroin

long pressing on the Bluetooth icon has always opened the Bluetooth menu. prior to Android 14, tapping on the Bluetooth icon would turn it on and off instead of opening the list of devices pop-up like it does now, which is annoying as shit, but that started with Android 14

what VPN do you have? and you have "always on VPN" switched on in your phone settings?

[–] tilefan@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

that does sound annoying. thanks for the heads up

 

I never update until there are a few months of other people using it to get feedback. did they fuck up anything major? anything irritating?

 

I've been experimenting with modafinil and armodafinil for my adhd, and this morning I took the largest dose of armodafinil yet (250mg). I took it at 10am, and went back to sleep with an alarm set for 11am, and just woke up at 2:30pm.

ADHD is fun

finally got around to updating YouTube ReVanced, been using the regular YouTube app since that video issue started, and nothing makes me appreciate what you guys have given us more [like, I tested it, you get shown partially unskippable ads before videos on how to perform the Heimlich maneuver].

there are even new settings in there that I wanted and didn't even have to ask for. I love this app so much

 
 

DISCLAIMER - I am not planning on fighting a pelican.

there's a brown pelican that hangs out on the railing of a very narrow portion of a boardwalk nearby. the only reason it makes me nervous is because it's huge, but their nails look short, and their beaks are pointed, but curved downwards so they would have to try to bite me with that long thing instead of pecking me.

like, if a bird capable of clawing or eating my eyes out attacked my face, I'd honestly have no qualms about killing it immediately. but if I ever get attacked by a pelican, it looks like I could just kind of hold it off without having to hurt it. am I right in that?

 

the native Android stopwatch widget is 3x2, and even resizing it on a third party launcher, it takes up way more space than it should.

the best I can seem to find out there is 2x2. I figure a 2x1 or even a 1x1 should be easily feasible. I don't give a damn what the rest of the app does (other than showing me ads, of course, or charging me a monthly fee)

 

according to Urban Dictionary, it's either a hand job through clothing, or another term for 69ing. I don't understand why either of those would be called an "over under"

 

I've had hemorrhoids for like 25 years, so I've always been very discerning about my toilet paper.

this entire time, I've been using whatever toilet paper I have found to be the softest as facial tissue, to blow my nose, as well. my reasoning being, if this stuff is gentle enough for my hemorrhoids, of course it's going to be gentle enough for repeated use on my upper lip.

then, a friend turns me on to one of those new "with lotion" facial tissues (my bathroom tissue always has aloe in it) and wouldn't you know it, my upper lip finds it to be softer than the toilet paper. but, when I try using it as toilet paper, my anus doesn't find it to be less irritating than the toilet paper.

why do my butthole and my upper lip think that different things are softer? is it just chemistry?
