    Can someone please upload the .apk somewhere? It's not available in my country (Canada).

    No, put another way this is Nike getting punished for creating a shoe that was used to kick puppies.

    In the EU I get an EU cell plan because it's orders of magnitude cheaper than roaming from North America when travelling for a month. So to log into my bank I have to load the webs…

    I don't recommend ClickUp because of the amount of marketing emails / spam they send you. Every minor version update gets an email in your inbox. Their "unsubscribe" link at the bo…

    Did you use a brainwallet (ie, the hash of the password as the private key)? It looks like the funds were drained within an hour of you loading the bounty. People have made giant l…

    Yes you are. We are talking about a tool, so you are asking why someone would "find it be useful".

    I agree with you, it doesn't make any sense. AGPLv3 says it plain as day: "you [the licensee] may remove that term." The licensee, meaning me, or the defendants in this case, can r…

    I'm really just looking to display a screensaver which _is_ something people want and care about. All screensaver software that I've seen supports displaying an image / slide show …

    Go visit your city's Makerspace during an open house and hang out there some. You'll see a lot of nerds who love to build stuff.

    That will still black the display when I'm watching youtube.

    Nope, this is quite the opposite of black: https://i.imgur.com/L0O0fNn.png It also turns my display off, which is not what I want: https://i.imgur.com/z5BIqGj.png Seems like it's n…

    I have no screensaver options under settings: https://i.imgur.com/WM3xIWL.png Note, I'm using Debian Sid. Gnome 3.36.2 on Wayland.

    I'm genuinely curious and haven't found an answer online so I'll ask you: why stop at 10K and not 100K? Also we represent 3-digit years like 770 without problems, so what does this…

    Obsidian's search is also bad: it doesn't prioritize file names or headings over content. When you get past a certain number of notes, this becomes an issue. You might be trying to…

    I found it useful. I've been using Django casually in hobby projects for a few years now and your article just taught me about the N+1 query problem, so thanks!
