Thanks for replying.

I had little understanding of them. However, all four of them have all disappeared now. No idea why!

Yeah pr0bably system apps they appear f0r a sec0nd.

Microsoft is a lost cause. Heck NOTEPAD and PAINT now have Copilot embedded in them! S24 Ultra and content to patiently wait for Samsung to innovate again (not holding my breath).

I smoked some bacon wrapped chicken livers for dinner. I like them fried better but it was a mother's day meal request. They are plenty easy to smoke but wrapping them proves difficult. I smoked them at 260° for an hour and forty five minutes. Internal temp was 170° but I wouldn't have minded the bacon being a bit crisper. There are enough left over for my dinner tomorrow. If I decide to heat them up, I'll bake them at 350° until I have crispy bacon. I'll likely eat them cold. I like them just as well hot or cold.

I'm trying to shed my winter hibernation fat. I always gain a few pounds across the winter with the idleness the cold weather creates. This year it was over ten pounds and I'm finding it alarmingly difficult to work it off.

Automate version 1.51.1

What’s new:

• Documentation search
• Fixed ADB protocol set block with Protocol set to USB
• Fixed Assist request often not showing on Android 7.1 and lower
• Fixed Flashlight enabled block using proceed When changed after Immediate

is it the manufacturers or is it the carriers?
seems more of a carrier thing to be locked up like that

Other than ebay or Craigslist, maybe FB Marketplace, and that's a risk of stolen phones that are blacklisted... manufacturers have really locked down bootloaders and rooting is near impossible on anything besides Pixel devices

I read about and finally my little Dillons store had a new trial product from M&M Mars Corp. It's called M&M Pop'd. It can't be a product of often consumption but the bites are very tasty. A lot of air in a package so they don't last long.

Happy Star Wars Day!

It's been through hell. At least it still holds stuff. I hope I can get some pliers and try that.

Is there a plan B?

Plan B is keep my S24 Ultra for yet another year. It's a perfectly good phone (I was going to keep it anyway for the camera).

I never owned a Leatherman. My nephew worked for Coleman for a number of years. He was part of the team that set up displays at camping shows. I was graced a number of the Coleman multitools and pouches. I carry a small set in the glove box of my truck. A large toolset is with my mow gear. I use it to cut my .105 weed string. The tool is a good lineman's tool and the other tools in the case come in handy now and then.

In a nutshell... this phone is blooming great!

Uncharacteristically for me, I have held on to the vivo X Fold 3 Pro for 21 months, since the launch of the global model, quite simply because I have not found a phone that can better it for my usage.

My original concerns about this phone were unfounded. The 5,700 mAh Si/C Li-Ion battery is now at 97% after nearly 2 years of constant use, (see screenshot), which is OK by me. Charging at 100W wired and 50W wireless in around 31" and 62" is a big plus for me.

The unique carbon fibre hinge of the phone has and still is, performing flawlessly and shows no sign of wear and tear.

Perhaps one of the biggest things for me is the screen brightness of 4,500 nits which works well in the sunshine here in the Cotswolds of England.

The phone works well on the global 5G Ultra network here in the UK and Europe

Last but not least is the crease which to me has not become any more noticeable than the day it arrived and can only be detected at a level angle of 90 degrees.

One thing I have noticed and is evident from my posts on here, is that the Chinese do not offer piecemeal updates but rather, bring all their optimisations, features releases and security patch, together in one monthly release. Apart from a few trial updates, such as the one in post #1, that is it so far.

In the last 21 months I have found nothing so far to tempt me away from this phone although I shall be looking at the global model of the Honor Magic V6 when it is released in Q3.

Something from few weeks back, salmon in the air fryer

Good luck!!

This is what happens when you watch Youtube.

Your only options are to pay for Youtube Premium, or to use an ad-free Youtube frontend app.

The ads on Youtube are a big reason why I dont watch things on Youtube very often.

If I do, I often turn to one of the ad-free frontends that also offer background play and downloading of content.

Even so, the majority of what I see on Youtube is AI generated slop that is just taking up space.

Look online for ad-free Youtube apps for android.

this is but one reason that i use KISS launcher.
it allows me to type settings shortcuts right into the search bar on the home screen.

also, this seems a time to bring up how i put utility apps and other things that i want on any device onto an SD card that i install before i ever turn it on. just a cheap ~$7 ONN 32GB card that has apks for all my utility apps, canta, shizuku, f-droid, etc..

to be honest, i dont like most of the changes i have seen just between android 11 and 12.
even the quick settings tiles are now blocky and ugly, and many things that were done with one touch are now two or three touches.
it seems to me that new devices are geared to keep us 'touching' them as often as possible.

I ditched Microslop in 2008, after Vista. Been using Linux and MacOS ever since.
My computers are:
2015 Macbook Air (Intel) running MX Linux.
2020 Macbook Pro (M1) running MacOS and Asahi Linux Fedora Remix (dual boot).

I got an email heads up form them when it was released.

Unfortunately, that has gone on the back burner, too much "real life" going on right now.

I have not given up ....

i saw today that if i open the Tubi app, it loads and then tells me that Tubi will not run without "Google Play Services, which is missing from your device."

tapping the screen most anywhere twice or a few times dismisses this toast message, and then the app works fine.

(this is all the proof i need that the app does NOT need google play services at all)

the toast reappears repeatedly as i scan the app, but so far no interruption of films with it after the film starts.

Rory didn't have a great last round but few did. Rory was able to join the noble three by being a back to back winner at the Masters. Good on him! I think he is a quality role model for young golfers. Scottie Scheffler, though even after the first two rounds took second. He shot 11 under in the last two rounds to be one shot off of Rory's 12 under victorious score.

Once again, Google is your friend.

I'm trying to find a particular item from Uniform Advantage. It's dark green with dinosaurs bearing gifts. The size should probably be medium or large.

Hello.

About 3 weeks ago, I suddenly stopped receiving account activity text alerts from Citibank. I had no problems previously, and I am still receiving all other personal and alert style texts from people and other companies. I have double and triple checked that I didn't accidentally block the number that sends them. I didn't. I called Citibank customer service, and they have no idea what my issue is.

A little while back I was given advice here regarding text messaging. I don't think this started until later, but I can't be positive. Could there be some connection? Please see my posting history.

Any idea what the problem could be? Thank you for any assistance.
