Ofcourse not, I also use fdroid and I sideload a shitton of apps. But Google is not killing off alternate stores, they’re just making their store safer. My whole point is that this change is not that negative. If anything it’ll have a positive effect on non tech savvy users. It’ll save me time by potentially causing less issues on the devices of family members.
That final part isn’t really Google’s fault no? But just the devs cutting functions?
Yeah, I read it. Didn’t think much of it. Are those apps that common? Don’t use them, as my browser can read pdf and text files.
Sounds more like some fringe apps will get caught in the cross hairs. Still sounds like a good change for the average end user. For the average power user, it won’t make a difference imo.
I mean, I know lemmy has an open source hardon and hates anything walled, but is this really such a bad thing? Google is getting rid of a bunch of shitty apps and risky apps. Nothing is stopping you from still sideloading them if you really need them.
I really fail to see the actual issue aside from “google bad”
Fair enough. I’m raising my kids in a similar fashion. I dislike the sexual repression in the west (from which I unconsciously still suffer). But I’m still worried about other boys :)
Until your daughter comes home with a boyfriend with a fucked up sense of what sex is and ruins her day/week/month/year/life.
I’m certainly not pro government tracking anything I do, let alone porn watching, but if I see how my own kids get exposed to it through friends. No matter how much I try to educate them, friends still show them absolute vile stuff…
I’ll never understand the people that have their photo archive linked to a chat app.
Where I live, line is the de facto standard. Soooo many people don’t use any backup and just count on line to manage their pictures. Some dude went viral for losing 10years worth of family pictures when he went from iPhone to android. Line is a shit all that doesn’t do any migration past 14days when changing os.
Just use Google photos and never think about it again? Or use self hosted stuff if you don’t like the cloud. But for the love of God, don’t count on the chat app…
Egypt is lowest on the rape list. There is a huge stigma to report a rape in Egypt. From what I gather, nobody trusts the Egyptian numbers.
My gut tells me the situation is similar in both Armenistan and Turkmenistan. Punishment for rape might be severe, but very likely the social pressure on the victims is also immense.
Big difference between reported rape and actual rape.
That being said, I hope for Turkmenistan and Armenia these numbers are for actual rape, good on them if it’s low.
Would be gat in flemish dutch tbh. Not kont
Yup, I know. So until Firefox has native lvl gestures, I won’t switch :)
Nope. Doesn’t allow gestures on internal pages. Eg new tabs, menu, settings, etc… It doesn’t work in the entire browser
The day Firefox gets native mouse gestures is the day I swap. Until then will continue to be a very happy Vivaldi user.
My favo games from the past few years. I absolutely adored every single one of them. Sad to see them go. This final dlc is on the expensive side imo, but I got them all, just to show support. I do very much look forward to playing them.
Pretty shallow and lame reason: I vastly prefer staring at a woman’s ass all day over a man’s. I’m already a man 24/7 of the day, might as well mix it up.
That, or if I have to follow the internet I don’t realize I’m trans?
Half the time I can’t install games from gamepass. On steam I install a game in 5m. On gamepass I have to schedule installing a game 2d in advance and hope at some point overnight it installs. Sucks so hard, because I actually like it. But it’s such a drag to actually use, I just don’t…
One more endorsement for the link bud s. Seriously underappreciated in ear buds. They are ridiculously comfy and sound quite well on top. + you don’t look like some weird scifi character. They are very discreet inside the ear.
As a high value individual you have to accept that you’ll always be a target. Nobodies like you and me on the other hand? Nobody will bother.
Or, bear with me, just send a massive amount of spam mails to leaked mailing lists. Maybe 1 in a million reacts and you scam them (cfr all the “Nigerian prince” scams.
A looooot less work because the victim’s will contact you themselves. No need to go and “compare which phones show up together and them figure out why they were together and then figure out if it was an affair or not and then contact them in the hopes they care enough to pay ransom”
I guess your username makes sense.
I work for a large eu government agency. Why the hell they still insist that we promote our workings on Twitter completely eludes me. It does not make any sense whatsoever. They should get off and stop promoting that cesspool. Go to any of the myriad of competitors or just go back to Facebook and Instagram…
