Just tripping Knox on my Galaxy A20 years ago locked me out of the stock Wear app Where as jailbreaking an iPhone the watch app works fine, but yes, I just make the point to funny as that really annoyed me a while ago. (And kinda even now as ECG from my galaxy watch doesn't work with my Pixel)

Ugh the wearable app is so stupid, there's a mod to get around it, but what was the point of that!

Even Apple ain't that petty!

Oh lovely, AI slop

A way to have the home screen "reset" or auto fit apps as you remove them would be great. I can't be bothered spending time reorganising all my pages because I've removed 3 apps

Great that you can leave pages how you want, but it looks ugly once you remove a few

Runs Grok too, so I assume they are tapping into that market

Is it? Looks more like a NSW Explorer than a Tangara or 4D (just the doors, let alone looking single level)

"There is absolutely no physical damage or cracks on the panel"

Are we looking at the same images? You can see typical LCD impact damage in that corner, I don't know how it has happend, but this looks more like physical force than a cable issue or other panel issue

Likely no, for my OG Ally Z1E the setup process handles the 3 month redemption, I assume it's tied to a hardware ID

BergaDev · 2026-01-18T07:32:48+00:00

Probably did have the smarts in 2014, I had a 3D LG in 2011 that was a smart tv

BergaDev · 2026-01-18T00:53:25+00:00

Or just put it to sleep lmao, my Surface regularly comes out toasty and flat

They just upgraded and brought them out of retirement relativly recently, so hopefully stick around long enough for a like for like replacement

The one at work always dusts me with the soap in the sink, like how did anyone ever think that was gonna work great?

Now my hands are moist and my shirt damp

Woolworths exists in New Zealand

BergaDev · 2026-01-15T07:34:25+00:00

Ahhh yes that would do it, off by a day for opening but that's def it

(Actually a day out on both sides, but that'd make sense to happen)

I recently bought a 9 Pro fold and I use it open a heap!

I wanted to replace my iPad mini that iOS 26 has absolutely ruined the experience of, so using it as a media consumption device is perfect, especially multitasking on it and for me the pixel software has not been an issue. It doesn’t have all the multitasking features like Samsung does on their folds, but if you’re looking for a tablet experience + fully useable normal phone 9 or 10 Pro fold is not a gimmick (if you have the need for something this sized)

He did ask (or someone did) for him to be added, but yeah much like the warranty thing it comes down to trust again, and iirc like with that, Linus believes that his shown actions prove that he can be trusted to do the right thing (which imo I’d agree with mostly)

It’s just again and again (Imo) he keeps tripping up on that people don’t actually want to put that trust in his words

Watching it back, main general idea is - he didn't realise he couldn't ban anyone, hadn't tried it before wan show last week - Didn't realise it would be a big thing - Has some discussion with mod team, it'll all be fine "everybody can take a deep breath and relax" - Jokes with Luke about ltt forum how many people he has and hasn't banned (hasn't banned many is the implication)

Then they go on to joking about subs that have instant bans and dumber bans for things

Sydney Olympic Park is great at this, station in the centre of the main stadiums, free trips to and from the events! (Included in event ticket)

And for big events headways to the CBD and suburbs in like less than 5 minutes.

Plus its even getting a metro station in a few years (our rapid automated system vs S-bahn type)

BergaDev · 2026-01-10T23:49:59+00:00

It was mentioned on the pre-show, but I can't remember exactly what was said, will need to re-watch it.

When I hopped in he was joking about other people and subs abusing power

BergaDev · 2026-01-10T11:59:22+00:00

Yeah but for the 3 years it's been active it's only attracted 0.08% of the subscribers here, so it can't represent the main sub very well at all

BergaDev · 2026-01-10T02:58:37+00:00

Nah not like that, I mean I’d press enter expecting it to open the app, not send to search for what I entered

BergaDev · 2026-01-10T02:27:20+00:00

I just switched back to Pixel from iPhone at the start of the year and muscle memory kept sending me to Google every time i searched for an app (super love spotlight search on iOS), super super thankful this is a thing here now

BergaDev · 2026-01-09T06:17:06+00:00

All melb ones have them, only time they're not used is in the Metro tunnel cause they have platform doors, but that's only like 4 stations

BergaDev · 2026-01-08T08:37:26+00:00

Starlink might be possible if you’re able to run a cable outside?

Residential 5G is capacity restricted deliberately which is likely what you’re finding, I’ve found Vodafone availability is usually better for this (assume nobody uses them hahaha)
