  • Motorola beats Samsung, Google to silicon-carbon batteries in the US

  • Charge slow (disable fast-charging)

    That's a myth. It does not make any difference. Modern chinese fast charging solutions can charge your phones faster with less heat vs slow charging which generates more heat. This has been proven in by a HTX studios which did a 2yrs long battery test.

  • Tensor G6 reportedly bringing latest ARM CPU cores but outdated GPU to Pixel 11

    Jump

  • As far as the GPU goes, Tensor G6 isn’t looking all that much better than Tensor G5, with an Imagination/PowerVR C-Series CXTP-48-1536 GPU. This appeared in some previous leaks, and it’s still an outdated GPU that dates back to 2021. It’s unclear if Google is perhaps using a newer variant, but it’s an outdated setup nonetheless, and one that’s sure to rub enthusiasts the wrong way.

    5 Yrs old GPU. How cheap can you be?

  • Google's working on a great Android feature to save you from 'storage full' struggles

    Jump

  • Because like Iphones most android phones do not support sdcard expansion. You need to get a budget android or an Expensive sony phone to have this feature.

  • Amazon thanks loyal Kindle devotees by bricking their kit

    Jump

  • If it was EPUB. It would've actually continued to function fine. For a device which is an E-reader it should stop working when it breaks, not when it does not connect.

  • Why does Amazon even need to have a sunset date (or perhaps how is it they can even define one?).

    They do because why not. Its their hardware and software. You chose to be bound when you purchased and agreed to their Terms & conditions.

    Or do these 2010-2025 era Kindle device still get updates for tings like DRM?

    It's literally written in the article. You can read existing books as long as you do not factory reset the device or de-register your account. New books cannot be added or purchased.

    The Amazon store stops working, you can still move either EPUB or the AZW files via USB, can you not?

    Unless, amazon provides a DRM free Epub at that time. The answer is no. You bought the license to read not own the ebook. Maybe, look into tools to download and decrypt the books if you have some.

    I would recommend getting your Ebooks DRM free from other places. Do not be restricted by corporations who exploit for profit.

    [Bug Report] when I open this video post I see 2 videos playing, instead of a single video playing

    Jump

  • Can confirm. But, the issue gets fixed if I load the post in my instance.

    My version is 1.81.1

  • Google embraces the future, mandates 64-bit apps for Wear OS

    Jump

  • That same page says those systems can use 64-bit signed integer to store date time even on 32bit systems.

  • Construction Management Application

    Jump

  • Install https://f-droid.org/packages/dnsfilter.android that should limit tracking to a good extent. Also limit battery usage for this app so it does not run in the background without reason.

    If your OS has a data usage option for apps. You can limit that from settings.

    Any more privacy would entail advanced settings like installation this app in a secondary profile of your android, etc.

  • Another unrelated issue. The screenshot UI gets hidden when taking a screenshot of a comment. I had to back out several times to notice the screenshot button.

  • Saved Commands/Scripts

    Jump

  • I simply have my most used commands in history. I just need to remember the command start and its done. Yay fish!

    But, I should start saving the commands in a file backup in case the command ever gets lost.

  • Congratulations

    Jump

  • Congrats, should buy a folder to preserve for a long time to come.

  • The 49MB Web Page

    Jump

  • Stupid stuff like this is the reason I use Ublock-Origin. Before that I used to use Umatrix when it was maintained. I blocked just about everything and had countless rules for my most visited websites so idiotic stuff wouldn't load.

    Nowaways, I block 3rd party frames and call it a day. If my connection is slow I can block pictures, javascript and 3rd party bloat to reduce bandwidth and browse basic sites.
