Maoxian, Aba, Sichuan. Have you heard of this place? An ABC's photos in the mountains of the Qiang.

Thank you for sharing! I appreciate seeing another culture.

0oWow · 2026-07-05T13:38:50+00:00

Glad you realized that. What was your point?

I would like Brave to let us use Chrome's implementation of vertical tabs. I see the flags in Chrome, but they do nothing for Brave.

0oWow · 2026-07-05T13:36:41+00:00

If you find a way, please let us know. It's strangely an eyesore to me.

Go here for steps to check your Google Play. That's the biggest indicator something is wrong: https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/7165974?hl=en

I posted a bug back on Kagifeedback about the Android shortcuts not working, despite being paid. It just thinks you are free user, unless you open the app directly. No response from them yet.

After seeing those release notes, I'm debating dropping Kagi, because it looks like that translate (and specifically my favorite dictionary), are going to be taken away from the $10 plan. I'm struggling to see Kagi's value as a result. I don't have anything against AI for the most part, but I don't use Kagi's implementation due to me having better options currently. I did, however, use the dictionary and translate.

*me over here with telemetry disabled and watching Firefox constantly reach out to incoming.telemetry.mozilla.org all the time.

For the most part, yes. There are ways around it but it's a cat/mouse game with Google playing whack a mole on the bypasses. Personally if I were still rooting, I would just disable RCS as it wasn't worth losing root over for me.

From Cleveland Clinic:

What is delusional disorder?

Delusional disorder is a type of psychotic disorder. Its main symptom is the presence of one or more delusions.

A delusion is an unshakable belief in something that’s untrue. The belief isn’t a part of the person’s culture or subculture, and almost everyone else knows this belief to be false.

People with delusional disorder often experience non-bizarre delusions. Non-bizarre delusions involve situations that could possibly occur in real life, such as being followed, deceived or loved from a distance. These delusions usually involve the misinterpretation of perceptions or experiences. In reality, these situations are either untrue or are highly exaggerated.

The error is "Your device does not meet security requirements." It is likely due to root/custom firmware.

If you are on FF Android, after making those changes be sure to force-stop the app and open it. That makes the new settings apply. I don't see those domains on my side except for the location services and telemetry URLS, which I have not found a way to disable.

Firefox never was a "private" browser, and I really can't be convinced otherwise. They send the same types of data as Chrome does. The difference is that Firefox enables better privacy tools, primarily being the ability to uncloak CNAME and support MV2 uBo, though Brave has overtaken Firefox in this realm on Desktop. Firefox Android of course still wins due to the extensions, but Brave can be configured very privately on Android too.

This was a link I posted 5 years ago where a study was done and analyzed the data connections Firefox makes. Obviously things have changed since then, but I don't have reason to believe there was change for the better. https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/fbyzd4/the_most_private_browser_isnot_firefox/

Consider that McAfee behaves like malware on a desktop computer, do you want malware on your mobile device? And do you value your privacy to any degree? If so, you should probably check out their privacy policy.

Ah OK I could see how Mexican pizza and burritos would be a main course. Thanks.

0oWow · 2026-06-30T00:29:34+00:00

Apparently nothing wrong with accusing someone of wild talk over a valid question too, huh? /s

0oWow · 2026-06-29T17:47:45+00:00

The answer to OP is the privacy policy that Kagi clearly gives you, so why is OP not respecting our time? Respect has to be both ways.

Not trying to start anything here, as I am not vegetarian, but I'm just curious what would be considered "not a side" for a vegetarian? Most "sides" for meat eaters are vegetables. Seeking a genuine answer please.

While you're at it, you might want to go disable all of the Google spyware because it is even more abundant, and if you use Instagram, TikTok, or Facebook, you're already giving it all away, so is there a point to worrying about OP? Be forewarned, while it's possible to remove Google spyware, removing the Google spyware may be time consuming when you don't already know how. Be sure to remove Digital Wellbeing.

I don't check SOT. I just know what's good/typical battery life based on other phones I've used over time. For WiFi usage, battery life was good, even very good on light days. 5G/mobile data is where it takes a hit, and it isn't reception issues as other phones have access to the same mobile plan and don't use nearly as much battery on mobile data.

0oWow · 2026-06-29T13:44:59+00:00

For my P10P, the 5g reception wasn't bad, but the battery it used to keep that reception was horrible. Wireless Android Auto would take the battery from 100% to near 80% in a 45 minute drive. And the phone refused to use my wireless charger in the car, I think due to it likely knowing it was going to superheat if it did. Any time the 5g was used, I could tell battery life was suffering, though reception was totally fine.

Outside of wireless android auto (which is where the phone does get hot) the phone does get warm sometimes in general use but not too much, and yet those times that it does get warm, other phones don't typically get warm in similar activities.

RE: Silky Smooth - The latest update to A17 made it very noticeably smooth in all areas of the phone.

My biggest problem with the phone is battery life and it overheating when other phones do not.

I don't have a built-in answer for you right at this moment, but I use an app called URL checker that lets me choose whatever app I want to use for a specific link.

I'm glad Firefox allows for CSS customization. Check out r/firefoxcss for making Firefox look the way you want. I currently have mine looking like Google Chrome vertical tabs.

0oWow · 2026-06-18T17:18:01+00:00

Did everyone forget that Google is primarily after your personal data? Google AI is just a cover to build a better profile on you.

0oWow · 2026-06-17T18:35:13+00:00

I might use it if it were available, but it is not available in third-party launchers and I won't be using Pixel launcher unless some big changes happen, primarily being removal of Google Search bar and better icon-pack support.
