  • Google will block sideloading of unverified Android apps starting next year

    Jump

  • LOL. Chinese phones are way worse, they simply block installations of "unsanctioned" apps with no workaround.

    My wife is Chinese and I used to live there for 7 years, it's an absolute privacy nightmare.

  • If an app gets an update, where does the update binary (or apk) get pushed first: PlayStore or the 3rd party store?

    Jump

  • Most developers who publish on third party stores push all updates at the same time, then it really depends who's quicker in the approval process.

    If the dev is on github, that might be the fastest (below the overview section under 'assets').

  • Spain is blocking unrelated internet addresses because of soccer

  • Cloudflare works perfectly fine with VPN.

    But browser plugins to fuck with the fingerprint don't.

  • List of car-free islands

    Jump

  • Quite incomplete I'd say, Sanshan island in China (inside Tai Lake / Taihu) is also car free. Only some electric threewheelers are permitted to transport goods between the 3 villages

  • whats the cheapest legal way to dispose of my dead body so i can stick it to the funeral industry?

    Jump

  • They can't exactly force you to pay for a funeral you don't want.

    Where I'm at that's exactly how it works. Even if you don't accept the inheritance, funeral expenses are owed by the next of kin (jointly if there's more than one in equal lineage).

    They might not be able to force you to conduct the funeral, but they will enforce the costs regardless. If there's an estate left, the next of kin can claim it back from the estate though, if somebody further down the line accepted the inheritance.

  • Have you changed you youtube pfp to clippy ?

    Jump

  • Awesome, thanks a lot for the elaborate reply, much appreciated!

  • my galaxy 5 (i5500) (even older than the s3!!!)

    Jump

  • Might be so obscure that no active exploits remain in the wild.

    Anyway most apps refuse to install on anything older than 9.0 now.

  • Bro wake up it's 1997.

    Jump

  • Especially the Hollywood map to could access with a code from the menu. That rocked so hard.

    Jump

  • What's that clippy stuff about? I asked elsewhere and someone posted a youtube clip. Not gonna waste 15 minutes of my life watching this shit.

  • Yeah they can fuck right off with that.

  • "AI husband". WTF. It's good those people get a well needed reality check... Seems like 5.0 is fixing some of its predecessor's shortcomings.

  • Just got a Fairphone 6, AMA

    Jump

  • I do that regularly, with internal storage of 512 GB and higher, write speed to external devices is not unimportant at the very least.

    Though with wifi 6 and higher you can get a decent throughput via ftp as well.

  • How to obtain standards - ISO, AS

    Jump

  • Maybe you could share which exact ones you need?

    I used to access them through my university and they came in some proprietary Adobe DRM format that I couldn't open without a university account, with copy & paste blocked and all that.

    Was fairly straightforward to take screenshots though and run them through a simple OCR program.

  • How to obtain standards - ISO, AS

    Jump

  • Library Genesis has quite a few ISO standards.

    And using Google, Bing and Yandex with the parameter "filetype:pdf" is also surprisingly effective.

    I haven't tried searching for any Australian standards, but maybe that's a starting point?

  • Son of Norway’s crown princess charged with four counts of rape

    Jump

  • He already publicly apologized for hitting his ex while high on coke, so he can't deny everything.

  • [Video] Cops not sure whether to arrest man with "Plasticine Action" shirt for supporting terrorism

    Jump

  • That's a British police uniform, standard issue.

  • How do i move on from thoughts that i never had and never going to have relationships?

    Jump

  • Embrace who you are, as cheesy as it sounds, and turn your quirks into advantages.

    Going bald? Who cares, I started balding from 19 years old, and at 21 I had a sizeable spot at the back of my skull that I could touch with one finger without brushing against surrounding hair. Figured I'd rather be bald than looking like a haggard whimp, shaved it the same day and never went back. I'm in my 40s now.

    Heavy lifting/physical work: Pumping iron isn't the only way to get a defined and conventionally attractive physique. Look into exercises to build core strength and arm muscles through calisthenics, yoga, plank holds and the likes. Work with a trainer who can give you proper guidance.

    Relationships: Not every relationship is built on love. There are transactional relationships just as well, which might be frowned upon in public, but depending on the source, 30-50% of men engage in them regardless. Might work wonders for your self esteem. Of course if you choose to do so, have your local legislation in mind, travel might be required.

    As for generally embracing and grounding yourself, guided meditations are pretty neat. Sometimes offered through yoga centers (it's a good combination in general and a relaxing hobby that still works on your physical limitations). I probably wouldn't do either online, having a person to guide you along for the first few times is quite important. You might also run into like minded people there, which can help to foster relationships (looking at platonic here first and foremost, an active friends group really helps to build confidence as well).
