I have no clue what’s meant by “without download”, but this app just uses web assembly to inspect the archive in the browser. The sandbox they talk about most likely refers to the browser sandboxing.

So it pretty much boils down to “risking running malicious code is fine, because this app as a whole is treated as malicious by the browser”.

However, for most people, the 5-a-day limit might actually provide a better framework for taking high-quality images. This limit makes you think more about your shots, so it could be useful to improve. your composition, timing, and framing.

See, it’s pro-consumer. Lol

OK, so the current dev implementation seems to make accessing notifications one-handed nearly impossible? You need to reach somewhere to the left half of the upper edge to pull them down - the top right corner is already far enough from my thumb most of the time to be a bit inconvenient to pull down on.

And I hope they bring back some quick toggles to the notification screen, it would be awful to have to go to the full quick settings menu just to turn on the flashlight, lol.

If you keep your Pixel plugged in for a few days, it will give you an option to limit charging to 80% (or maybe just turns it on on its own, not sure about that). There’s no other way to activate it currently, but that should change soon (the Adaptive Charging option will have three options instead of just on/off).

Pixels never had the SD card slot

Since the phones have water resistance, they are technically designed to work under water

Oh, so a device that offers no warranty in case of water damage (because you’re not supposed to expose it to water) can use an IP certification as a loophole to completely avoid this law? That’s not good

As @[email protected] pointed out, the author considers something as small as spawning a separate process for each window to mean a “non-native experience” (wait till they see how web browsers work)

It’s likely the same sensor that is included in the rest of the Pixel 9 Pro Fold.

I see proofreading the first paragraph is too hard these days.

Don’t know about the rest, but…

Does reflashing a ROM fix it?

The phones appear to be simply dead with no response to anything. No way to connect ADB, no way to connect fastboot, nothing.

Also the bootloader allows flashing over the cable only when it’s unlocked (at least on Pixels; I couldn’t find anything relevant in the Android documentation). The vast majority of Pixels should have their bootloaders locked, and it is only possible to unlock it through the system settings, so it’s pretty safe to say that most Pixels cannot be recovered if Android fails to boot because you cannot unlock the bootloader if you can’t get into settings.

Licensing the source as GPL doesn’t really force the copyright holder (which is 100% BitWarden due to their Contributors Agreement^*, no matter who contributed the code) to do anything - they are absolutely free to release binaries built on the same codebase as proprietary software without any mention of the GPL.

For example if I write a hello world terminal program, release its source code under GPLv3 and then build it and give the built binary to you (and a permission to use it), you cannot force me to give you the source code for that build because I never gave you a GPL licensed binary.

If you were to take my GPLv3 source code and distribute a build of it however, you would have to license your binaries under GPLv3, because that’s the terms of the license I provided the source code to you under. Your users would then have the right to request the source code of those binaries from you. And if you released the build under an incompatible license, I (but not the users) could sue you for violating my license.

Their previous versions, still being under the GPL, would require them to release a change to make it usable on desktops.

License violations are usually not resolved by making the violator comply retroactively, just going forward. And it’s the copyright holder (so BitWarden themselves) who needs to force the violator to comply.

^* this is the relevant part of the CA:

By submitting a Contribution, you assign to Bitwarden all right, title, and interest in any copyright in the Contribution and you waive any rights, including any moral rights or database rights, that may affect our ownership of the copyright in the Contribution.

It is followed by a workaround license for parts of the world where copyright cannot be given up.

To be fair, giving a company that’s been failing to get themed icons to work on Android for almost four years now less than a month to make a significant change to a core part of their software is… quite weird?

Like, the EU usually gives companies at least half a year to comply with smaller demands than this, because companies with such a huge bureaucracy load wouldn’t even be able to change an app logo in such a short amount of time.

I don’t think it supports displaying HDR at all? The GitHub issue regarding HDR is still open and it definitely doesn’t switch to HDR mode when I open HDR photos with it.

The hardware supported it ever since adaptive charging was introduced, so that’s not surprising.

The work profile seems like a better place for that, and it was available since Android 5

Maybe developers will finally start implementing predictive back now that it’s not hidden behind developer options. It’s kinda nice when you can just peek at where the app wants to take you when you go back, and it currently ironically tends to be implemented only by apps that already have decently made navigation.

Also private space seems nice, finally a way to use the work profile sandbox natively without having to install third party apps that pretend to be work profile managers.

Yeah, this seems properly configured. No clue why it isn’t working for you.

The only app that doesn’t auto-update for me is Fdroid itself (ironically), because it targets an old Android version. Running Android 14 on a Pixel, so with the strongest Google fuckery.

Are you sure your Fdroid client is up to date? The new API was implemented in 1.19, and apparently I even misremembered and all you have to do to enable Fdroid to auto update its apps is to manually update them for one last time (so no fresh installation required).

Another long shot: there’s an option to force the old installation method hidden in expert settings - maybe you could check if that isn’t enabled?

On a normal unmodified phone you have to manually confirm each app you want to install. so no auto-updates in the background etc.

Background app updates are possible since Android 12, Fdroid just took two years to implement the new API (and you have to do a fresh install of the apps - apps already installed using the old API still require confirmation on each update). There is still friction on the initial install though.

It is for their non-flagship devices - those were always kinda left behind with software support.
