The devs are actively working on it and it's on their bug list but I have no idea if it was fixed for the Play Store release though they promised it would be. Edit: It was my understanding that v3 would be a different market ID from the old one so you shouldn't need to do anything if you don't want to move. Now that I look at the Play Store I can see that is not the case. ClassActionFursuit fucked around with this message at 15:33 on Apr 18, 2013 |

AppleCobbler posted:God forbid they find out that my mom wants to have me and my girlfriend over for dinner sometime next week! If you've ever been to a job interview at a tech company, that interviewer has potentially/usually seen every stupid in-joke on your wall, all the drama with your ex five years ago, EVERYTHING you/someone didn't have the sense to keep off of your facebook. When a company gives that level of access to ANYONE with a hiring department willy-nilly, you shouldn't give them access to your SMS history, even if you are the most straight-laced square individual in the world. So no, adsense and actual data mining isn't done by a person in a room (duh), but I personally know a gaggle of people who work at the county DHS and various other offices that sit around spying on "baby's-daddies-girlfriends facebook's" and pulling high school friends mugshots then emailing them around. In an age where law enforcement doesn't need a warrant to track you via cell-gps, private security firms (wackenhut) can monitor your emails/texts/correspondence simply for being on property they patrol, and third party corporations are throwing billions at legislature to increase their control and ownership of your data, maybe you shouldn't give away your last somewhat legal bit of privacy to a company with no qualms about letting just about anybody have unfettered access to it. Or not, whatever, chatheads definitely isn't a game changer or anything different from other notification managing apps.

Thank god I've never, ever given a poo poo about facebook. And I joined when it was still a thing only college students could join with a valid college email. Ive literally never changed anything or posted anything since that day I signed up. So loving stupid, I've never understood the appeal, and now I just have 5,000 more reasons to hate them.

In response to legal threats and preventing harm, "We may also access, preserve and share information when we have a good faith belief it is necessary to: detect, prevent and address fraud and other illegal activity; to protect ourselves, you and others, including as part of investigations;" Lying to employers where an NDA is part of the application process (to even get in the door) is fraud and Facebook shares your information to prevent fraud and illegal activity, to protect themselves and others. Does your corner pharmacy have an HR account, no; does HP, IBM, or Symantec, yeah. Does every counties office and every social worker have one no; big cities and technologically integrated offices? More so every day.

This is the biggest crock of poo poo I've ever read. Ordinarily I'd be perfectly happy to leave you to spout your paranoia without calling you out on it, but I'm worried people with less knowledge of the situation might actually believe you. What you suggest violates not just Facebook's own privacy policy but privacy law, and would be corporate suicide. There's a reason you haven't presented any evidence to back up your ridiculous claims, and that's because there isn't any. Not because Facebook have amazing censorship powers, but because This. Does. Not. Happen.

This is all a bunch of horse poo poo and I have yet to see a shred of evidence of this happening. Plenty of organizations will google your name and peruse your social media accounts, but only what's public or cached on public servers online. Those first two paragraphs don't even make any sense. Facebook doesn't give a gently caress if you violate your company's NDA and they aren't going to get in between you and your company over it without a court order. The only 'fraud' they are interested in preventing is people luring 15yr olds to sexually assault them with fake accounts.

Furthermore I am sure a lot of HR lawyers would advise against looking at a candidate's Facebook profile, because you might find out they are pregnant or have cancer or are old, and then if you don't hire them they can sue you for discrimination. There is a reason interviews are structured so that anything even tangential to these sorts of topics never comes up.

This isn't limited to Android apps necessarily, but having an Android app for such a service is necessary for me: I like Evernote, but I hate that you cannot draw in-line sketches. I'm forced to instead draw one in Paint and attach it. I know Skitch exists, but it seems to be designed for a different purpose than what I'm looking for (also you can't insert Skitch items in-line with normal Evernote notes). I basically want something exactly like Evernote, but can allow for drawing things in-line. Is there a note-taking software that can do this? I think OneNote can, but I don't want to use it for a number of reasons (its tagging system is a total mess, for one).

If you are 4.0 or higher, you can connect to Cisco IPSEC using android's built in vpn client. If you need Anyconnect, there is a cisco app on the play store for it. If you are on an older version of Android, you will need to be rooted to us any kind of VPN client for cisco.

So, I installed Tiny Tiny RSS on my server. It's a pretty great rss reader for use on my computer. It's like if Google had worked on Reader and concentrated on making it feature-ful for power users. The Android app from the main dev of Tiny Tiny RSS is pretty good. The latest beta of gReader added support for ttrss and so far I'm thinking its even better than the "official" one.

Does anyone use PocketCasts and listen to Astronomy Cast? I just realized last night that I hadn't heard any new episodes since I switched back to PocketCasts (at least), so I double checked, and I do have it subscribed, but the app thinks there haven't been any new episodes since February 14th. Any idea why this is?

I uninstalled a while ago and switched to another podcast app. They did it because Amazon nearly killed them as a company when they gave away their app for free, if you bought it from Amazon before it was removed you can buy it on the play store and they will refund it. I don't think they are blocking anyone either, unless the major 4.0 update changed too much preventing really old versions from working.

Does anybody know of a wallpaper switcher that can have a schedule applied? I like having a photo of a random sassy tattooed dame on my homescreen, but don't really want to have that out and exposed while I'm in the office. My current solution is to use Multipicture LIve Wallpaper and have with 4 desktops. 2 of those have pull a random photo from the NSFW folder on my phone and the other 2 are set to static images that are dark abstract things. I've got tasker but used it mostly to silence my ringer based upon calendar entries and always got confused and gave up when trying to do bigger projects. So if there are no known options I might head to the tasker thread to see if I can find some magic there. Edit: I might have found the solution.

I am looking for an app that does the following: It is like Evernote in that I can write notes, but with templates. Like I need to do notes on stuff a couple of times a day, but it is always the same structure of things (Two numbers from 1-10, date, location and time and a comment). I know I can just put this into a regular note but this would be more convenient. edit: I have an android cellphone, a motorola pro plus. I don't know what android version that is or what I need as this will be the first "app" I install.

How's Poweramp (or any other music program) as far as managing playlists and crossfading tracks? I'm currently using google music, which is fine but it's not super simple wrt managing a playlist. Specifically: I listen to this one playlist of 300 something songs for my workout. I basically just add any album that I want to listen to, but this ends up adding intros, outros, slow interludes, etc. I want to remove these when they appear on the list, but to remove them from playlist I have to change screens from what's playing now to the playlist screen and manually scroll through the list to find it and remove it. This really isn't a huge deal (as it's pretty easy to just skip the song), so I guess I'm just being super picky. But it'd be nice. Also crossfade ability would be awesome as often there is too much silence between tracks. (There's no room for silence while I'm getting swole. I need to be aurally assaulted at all times.) Extra points if I can use the music that I download from google music because it's just so convenient. I crave convenience.
