If he's telling us this, does that mean we get to bill him for the upgrade?

That joke kinda sailed over your head there, mate

The only thing play protect has done "for" me lately was remove file access to Poweramp the day after I got it. Fuck Play Protect.

You mean we shouldn't blindly trust random, almost entirely anonymous, users giving out executables to be run on the very same devices we do banking and important life paperwork on? Say it ain't so!

Import python.Joke.ShellProgramming()

So if this is of interest to anyone here, I strongly recommend getting the Snake Oil card game. The basic premise is you have one player (the potential buyer) pick a profession card, then the other players choose from two word cards in their hands, and have 60 seconds to sell it to the potential buyer. Potential buyer chooses winner, and a new player becomes the potential buyer.

For added twist, I like to have a questions phase where the sellers get to attack each others' products. Truly a blast, especially if there's a bit of drinking going on

God that's accurate. Or how telling your phone to launch Kodi on the CCwGTV, it showing you feedback that recognizes the name (eg "Launch Kodi on Main Google TV", but still coming back with, "I can't do that"

You're just launching an Android app! Don't give me that bullshit!

With how Google marched backwards on cloud storage since the turn of the decade, GMail is getting even less promising. Once my wife and I finally move out of here, I'm going 100% self hosted, setting up my own email server, et al

What's awesome about this is when you drive a hybrid. All your power comes from gas or regenerative braking, but it's so efficient that it's still painful to the average Republican

In the same vein, Malicious Life is also good, though Ram is a bit difficult to understand.

I also love Smashing Security and Hacking Humans for the news side of Cyber Security

A bit off topic, but I'm impressed by how wordy that article is

@heyspencerb this one certainly looks like the better established, though posting this as a micro blog instead of a thread certainly didn't help you in the visibility department. I only stumbled upon this as a bored kbin user

Man, that blows.

Indeed it would. From what I have read and seen, I actually think this could be a lot of fun, and would be enough for me to start back up my membership. But every player uninterested in it can simply ignore it the same way they ignore having fun with Cooking

Has me wondering if ever we'll reach a state where we just have battery packs like backpacks that we just wear as a daily habit, like putting a shirt on. It'll charge up overnight, then go in a sleeve that's machine washable (otherwise ew), and have a half dozen or so PD USB-C ports that we just tap into for phones, smart watches, laptops, etc

I mean, I imagine a primary reason is also that the mainline distros don't use it by default, necessitating one to look for "spins/flavors/whatever" that use it instead.

I've been seeing both recently. I've opted to err on the same side and just make it clear when I'm talking about spinning rust versus solid state.

My wife worked at one. Cash tips are definitely best as they aren't officially taxed, but after taxes the employees do see every cent of digital taxes inside their paychecks. One biweekly paycheck was $50 more in tips alone for her. That was while her manager went on extended "medical" leave for an entire month and a half, leaving her, only one month into employment, fielding the lunch rush solo 3-4 days a week.

Also who tf tips at subway?

Those of us who realize the workers tend to be those unable to get anything better, even if they are trying (see: ex-convicts) and understand that $9/hr ain't a living wage

Does this one handle https connectivity properly? I know that EasyTether failed in this without paying, and I couldn't get it to work for anything...
