    Unsafe but longed for website

    Back in the early days of the interwebs it was often sending an email to webmaster@<domain of interest> You could still try that, you never know. But otherwise see if there's any contact information on the website that concerns you. Sometimes websites are created and maintained by internet...

    Nonsucky 256 gb Android, preferably under $200

    Maybe check GSM Arena? Enter in what you desire and see what comes up. Have China phones become quite expensive in America now because of Trump tariffs?

    Cloudflare Makes The Internet Useless

    Yeah, I often see that stupid Cloudflare thing, and I also see others. I never use Windows. Mostly I'm on Linux, and sometimes MacOS. Usually with Mullvad VPN, unless I'm looking at websites in China. I gave up with Reddit a long time ago, can never view that site. Even this site and forum...

    Music player defaults to alphabetical order when selecting an album to play

    If you submitted a bug report to Xiaomi, hoping for a fix to their obviously broken app. I wouldn't hold your breath.

    Music player defaults to alphabetical order when selecting an album to play

    I suggest that Mi Player is defective. When I tried it, all my albums showed alphabetical, and NOT the intended track order.

    Public disgrace er storage

    Last time i was in the UK I found exactly the same at some businesses, especially small places like little cafes and coffee shops. From what I understand if a place accepts cash, someone has to go to the bank with the days takings, or they have to keep it in a safe on the premises. Either of...

    Samsung JANUARY 2026 update. EoL for the S21 series?

    I'm still using a Note 20 Ultra, now on it's 6th year, still very happy with it. I know it's officially EOL from Samsung, but as long as it still works and is supported by the apps I use, I'll keep using it. I only ever charge it to 85% in the settings, and the battery is still good. All the...

    PayByPhone problem.

    Maybe the credit/debit card billing was declined? What's 'contact 101000'' about? Is their phone number? Suggest you contact their customer support services.

    Samsung Suggest music player for S10+, files are on HDD / Mac

    Try WiFi File Transfer instead. I've always had success with this app for transferring files too and from computer to phone. And I have found it more reliable than AFT. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.techprd.filetransfer&pli=1
