I’ve read this for years too, and this video demonstrates exactly why in a clear way.

While you’re looking for a good pinball game on PC and console, play Vector Pinball on your phone:

It’s simple and fantastic.

This article is from May 2020; I wonder if DoorDash still does this.

I found Auto Mute on Droid-ify while I was in there to install Auto Auto-Rotate, and it’s fantastic:

Auto Mute - Auto Mute is an open source app to automatically mute or unmute your media volume based on the type of audio playing.

According to their site it’s on Play store too.

Really… I have to check that out. For a very long time I’ve wanted a mode in maps where it behaves as though I put a destination in without a destination, why don’t they have that?? If this is the mode you mention and I’m only just finding out, then it is definitely the one Google is turfing…

A wild Zardoz meme appears!

Orders open November 16th at 10am PT… will it be possible for a normal person to order one, or have the bots got this one in the bag already, I wonder.

So this is what it looks like when Google prioritizes a fix. Neat!

Google from the article:

Thanks for sticking with us. Our team is looking into this storage issue affecting some Pixel devices running Android 14 and we’re working hard on a fix. We’ll update this thread with more details soon.

Perhaps as likely as YouTube Premium separating music access from no ads on videos… I wish. It keeps me locked in.

Wife works from home, and I go in a 2-3 times a week to a downtown office building, so I don’t lose my cube. Kids stayed home for the first year, but returned after that. They still choose to mask up at school, even though it’s no longer required - incredibly they don’t get bullied for it.

They’re in baseball, hockey, and basketball sans masks this year though, so I brace for a covid impact whenever I see headlines about new surges. I’ve always assumed my kids would be our covid vector. I’m certainly tempting fate with these comments 😂

I am aware of this aspect, but all four of us would have to be non-symptomatic people, which I find highly unlikely; we just mask, vax, hand-wash constantly, and avoid crowds. I was certainly knocked on my ass by each vaccination. Other circumstantial evidence that we probably haven’t had it yet is that none of us have had a cold in 3 years either, thanks to our pandemic habits and precautions. It’s been great.

That’s me and my whole family of 4. Suck it, COVID.

Is this some hardware they’re activating or software that’s going to hurt already struggling performance?

Why not have it towed, or call bylaw to ticket it? The truck owner is inconvenienced, finds out why, and the sidewalk becomes usable again. Plus you get to feel better AND not act like the POS you want to see punished.
