ive been complaining about this for the last 6 years. the counter argument has always been “but content consumption! but battery! but big hands!”
listen. thats great and all.
i dont even want a phone to begin with. i have to have one to fit into society. the very least you could do is make it palletable.
Ive been keeping my eye on this project! I am a fan but its not quite there yet for me. Adding widgets/apps to the home screen is kinda funky still, theres no support for app drawer groups/folders and a want but not a need is neofeed integration.
Lawnchair (FOSS) just released an update to allow imports of Nova Launcher backups.
De-googled ROM + GadgetBridge. Privacy, and health with privacy. :P
If you have a slow connection or if you have the relay calls setting on, that could be the cause. As long as I’m at home my video calls come through fine.
So it looks like currently the F-Droid release is on version 2.5.6 (Compiled Feb 11th), while the latest Android app release is v2.6.3.
Unfortunately, Immich does not currently look to be using Reproducable Builds on F-Droid, so what that means for you is you either have to wait for F-Droid to build the current app release without updating your server, or uninstall the F-Droid build and use an app like Obtainium to use the latest Immich GitHub builds.
I personally keep my Immich server in sync with the F-Droid releases, as I prefer F-Droid to Obtainium. I understand wanting to use the latest releases as soon as possible though. Considering v2.5.6 was published to GitHub Feb 10th, and there have been 4 builds, with a minor version bump and 3 bug fix releases as recently as “last week” (GitHub Relative dates can btfo) Obtainium may be better suited to your needs if your needs are keeping up with the latest updates.
What’s going on exactly? Just some simple troubleshooting: Is the server up to date; Is the app and the server version the same; Are there any logs in Immich server or in the app (Account icon > logs) that point to an easy error?
If not I’d maybe open a discussion or issue on their github. I could tell you to join their discord. i could also tell you to scream into a box.
I thought Pixels have had that feature? Or did that die with the 4 series? :(
you will have less features, you will have a locked bootloader, and you will like it.
extremely bad idea considering your OS has currently gone over 6 months without a security update. Biggest CVE that comes to mind that you are currently vulnerable to is TapTrap
Surely you would value the convince of like, texting your significant other who is at the grocery store or farmers market the last minute ingredient for your dinner plans that night though right? Like, you wouldnt want them to get home and then you have to go back out, then dinner is delayed an hour. ugh, annoying.
signal already has video calls??
found out that AOSP is set up such that you can’t switch your default contact sync unless the app is white listed inside of AOSP. so. whatever they are implementing here short of GrapheneOS scoped storage is privacy theater
If you called a taxi company that didnt do fixed rates you should have looked into them before you called. If you consider a ride “mooching” I would not want to be your friend. If your public transit isnt good enough, call your local reps and COMPLAIN.
Fuck this culture of “tipping”. I wouldnt have to fucking tip if they paid their drivers. Do you tip in cash on Uber? The driver won’t know that until they get there and you just look like a low-pay customer. Do you tip in the app? Congrats, you just tipped uber. The driver may or may not receive it. Do you verify with each driver to make sure they end up getting the money? Uber has obfuscated tipping for drivers FOR YEARS.
And tariffs are for charging the company being imported. They never tried pushing those lost costs onto the customer
They wanted to charge per game sale. It’s not “per download” but it’s close enough for most consumers.
Most of the comments here seem to be talking about the politics of the gender roles, but no one really seems to be mentioning that Uber should only be used as a very last resort. Call a Taxi, a friend, take public transit. Do not support the VC startup trash that doesn’t pay their employees “contractors” living wage.
Legitimate Reasons for Employer Device Access There are valid reasons why an employer might need to access an employee’s phone, regardless of ownership: Legal Compliance: To comply with legal requests such as subpoenas or investigations. Security Breaches: To investigate potential security breaches or data leaks. Violation of Company Policy: To investigate violations of company policies regarding acceptable use. Employee Termination: Upon termination, to retrieve company data and ensure a smooth transition.
Let’s be generous and say your employer considers your phone a personal device even though they pay for the service.
For an employer to legally track a personal phone’s location, they need explicit consent from the employee and must have narrowly defined policies.
https://legalclarity.org/can-my-employer-track-my-work-phone-location/
Is there anything stopping them from hiding a tracking policy in your contract? Did you fully read the contract to check? Would allowing them to pay for the service count as consent in court? IANAL, but why would you risk it, when you could just have a work phone you only use for work.
If youre in the US and your company is paying your phone bill, they are legally allowed to access your location via cell towers at any given moment. That, in combination with the fact that they can also legally take the phone from you (You have company trade secrets on that device if you install their software), I dont see the point in risking not having a 2nd device.
