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.

I did see it on tv last evening.. manage to get a few photographs...

also, battery cycles are measured by 0% to 100% being one full cycle.

if you charge from 50% to 100%, that is half of one cycle and you would have to do that twice to get one full cycle.

likewise if you were to charge from 20% to 80%, then you have completed 60% of one cycle.

that is why the store told you numbers that did not equal your charging numbers.

Hello dear community,

Have fun 😊

Hello,

independent of XML and Compose, there are also other ways to build your UI. I have written some helper classes and put together my UI with a kind of custom DSL. It works almost perfectly. 😊


override fun createLayout(target: FrameLayoutBuilder) {
instance = this
with(target) {
addLinearLayout {
setOrientationVertical()
add(ActivityHeader())
createContent(this)
add(ActivityFooter())
}
}
}


private fun createContent(target: LinearLayoutBuilder) {
with(target) {
addFrameLayout {
setLayoutWeight(1f)
addLinearLayout {
setOrientationVertical()
addFrameLayout {
setLayoutWeight(1f)
addSurfaceView {
setSurface(Playground)
}

addRelativeLayout {
setGravityBottomRight()
addTextView {
setVisibleFalse()
formatHint(this)
addReceiver(Playground.hint) {
setTextId(it)
setVisible(it != R.string.Empty)
}
}
}
}
createInfoLine(this)
}
addFrameLayout {
addReceiver(overlay) {
replace(it)
}
}
}
}
}

fun formatHint(target: TextViewBuilder) {
with(target) {
setTextSizeSP(20)
setTextColorID(R.color.hintText)
setMarginsDP(50, 10, 20, 20)
setPaddingsDP(20, 10)
setGravityRight()
setGradientBackground {
cornerRadii = getCornerRadii(getPixelFromDP(15).toFloat())
setStroke(getPixelFromDP(6), getColorFromID(R.color.black))
setColor(getColorFromID(R.color.hint))
}
}
}

fun createInfoLine(target: LinearLayoutBuilder) {
with(target) {
addLinearLayout {
setOrientationHorizontal()
setPaddingsDP(10, 0)
setBackgroundColorId(R.color.black)
addTextView {
setWidthDP(100)
setLayoutWeight(1f)
setTextSizeSP(16)
setTextColorID(R.color.white)
setFontId(R.font.nunito_bold)
addReceiver(Playground.mode) {
setText(
when (it) {
Play -> "Build Mode"
else -> "Play Mode"
}
)
}
}
addTextView {
setWidthDP(100)
setLayoutWeight(1f)
setGravityCenter()
setTextSizeSP(16)
setTextColorID(R.color.white)
setFontId(R.font.nunito_bold)
setText("V${BuildConfig.VERSION_CODE}")
}
addTextView {
setWidthDP(100)
setLayoutWeight(1f)
setGravityRight()
setTextSizeSP(16)
setTextColorID(R.color.white)
setFontId(R.font.nunito_bold)
addReceiver(Playground.currentBoardIndex) {
setText("Board ${it + 1}")
}
}
}
}
}

Resurrecting (!) this thread to append more information in the wake of the charges resulting from Mr. Perry’s untimely death. Of the five people charged relative to his ketamine usage, three have now pled guilty (including a doctor) and are awaiting sentencing; the other two appear willing to roll the dice on a jury, where they could essentially receive life sentences if convicted.

Doctor charged in Matthew Perry's death pleads guilty to ketamine distribution charge

Mark Chavez, a doctor charged in connection with Matthew Perry's fatal overdose, has officially pleaded guilty to conspiring to distribute ketamine. He faces up to 10 years behind bars.

All of the five people charged have been sentenced; I believe they all entered plea arrangements whereby they admitted their part in Mr. Perry's death. The most severe sentence is also the most recent; the so-called "Ketamine Queen" who provided the fatal doses. She was sentenced to 15 years, and it turned out that her supply had also killed another person in 2019, which was part of why the sentence was that long. Sad all the way around.

I have nothing but respect for my dad. He was a hard working honest guy. Kids just weren't his deal. He was the provider and my mother kept the nest clean and kept us kids in line. Later in life we became business partners and I tried to match his effort and work ethic. I am fairly certain that I received two gifts in my life that he actually wanted me to have and went out of his way to gift them. A pocket knife that I still have and my set of SAE sockets. They mean the world to me. I'm sorry that your sister snagged up the Bell tools. She likely didn't understand the significance of a man to his son relationship.

No need to cross the straps, there's plenty of options on all the sales sites for straps...
For one.
You only need a waist belt when you're carrying heavier loads and you need to more evenly distribute the weight lower on your body.

No, you haven't missed anything: the Google widget imposes a minimum width to display the microphone, so in 1x1 or 2x1 resolution it disappears, and there's no setting to keep it there. The simplest solution is to add a direct shortcut to voice search or use Google Assistant, which gives you one-touch access to the microphone without having to use the widget.

I had a chance late this afternoon and early evening to ride my bike. The aroma lofting off the different grills and smokers as I rode though town smelled great! It was a great day to be outside and families were taking advantage.

maybe noroot is blocking shizuku.

i had issues with noroot, and i wanted the other features of invizible at the same time

normaly you cant run a vpn and a firewall at the same time because the vpn system can only run one thing at a time

luckily invizible does this all in one

Yes, in most cases you can delete data from Files by Google without major risk, especially if you already use another file management application.

Since I put No Root Firewall on his phone for him, I wondered if it could be a little too restrictive. I shut it down and lo and behold, porn. I would rather err the other way and keep the thing from being invaded by a bunch of crap apps, mostly overweight games that are probably just spyware, but it's not mine...

it sounds like he blocked it himself by mistake.

you can block certain IPs from connections, and it is global, meaning it blocks for the whole device not just one app.

i used to use it for sites that persistantly sent redirect after redirect.

it worked usually after a while, but the app grows larger with each one.

i now use the firewall included inside Invizible from F-droid.

I use WaveUp from F-droid.

it uses the proximity sensor to allow the screen to wake by waving my hand over the top of the screen and/or by taking the phone out of its case.

if you have problems with it stopping, you can put a quick setting icon in your quick settings and that seems to keep it active.

Google it.

And my guess is that, as usual, hackers and other digital turds across the netscape have zero issues doing and getting whatever they want online- this crap only aggrevates those that play by the rules.

if I watch a video on Facebook and then tap to go foward or behind by 10 seconds if it has this option it automatically plays by itself then I have to tap again to pause the video. I don't want this to happen if i tap on the video it plays automatically and then pauses again when I tap it again anyway to turn these features off

do you understand what I mean

Hi,
I have S24 and would like the lock screen to NOT turn off (stay dark) for notifications for texts, emails. My travels through the settings haven't helped. I need help from someone much more able than me. Please clue me in.

Thanks, Jake2H
