android 9 has a "gesture mode" you can enable instead of the traditional 3 soft buttons that usually sit on the black bar down there. it doesn't make the black bar area any smaller and the gestures are crap

i press the soft keys with my middle finger anyway.

I wondered this as well and it is apparently sundar except smugndar and now my question is who the gently caress was dumb enough to both come up with that and think it was worth thirty dollars or whatever

with the forum's finances in the shitter a number of people have chosen to buy custom smilies, avatars, etc at a somewhat higher rate than previously.

there was a goon who made one of these picture viewers in androids early days but they werent a native english speaker and called the app "beaver browser" without knowing what beaver was slang for. it was up on the market for years before they were informed as to the double entendre and they renamed the app and now idk what its called

i alwqys found it appropriate that ofc the first goon app was a hidden picture vault

frost is the current name of that one.

no one should buy any android device if they are concerned with privacy or security

but pretending huawei is somehow worse than sarnsung is laughable. the big concern is, what if huawei's device encryption eventually actually works? we have direct sweetheart deals with the koreans to compel sarnsung's cooperation, and if apple talks a good privacy game, they are still an american company and can be compelled by secret order to cooperate

but when jim from the office and detective moreland breathlessly shout about a ticking clock terror plot the guy on the other end of the phone from huawei will say "嗯...太可惜了" before the camera whip pans to reveal the huawei customer support office is actually in a dingy warehouse filled with chinese terrorists packing machineguns into wood crates stamped with "B A B Y T O Y B E S T N U M B E R O N E S H I P T O U.S.A."

i feel like you're getting a little off brand here.

i once had a student who asked me for help with his solidworks model and i literally couldn't see what was happening on his laptop screen through the grime. there were sprays of brown god-knows-what all over the glass, like he'd been driving it through the mud, and grunge caked on so hard you could see it was three-dimensional. i got him a bottle of windex and some paper towels and told him to clean it off before I could help. that may have been humiliating for him but jesus christ dude have some pride

dude you know what those stains were.
