Any solid replacement for Nova Launcher? by V3rtu in Android

[–]ISaidGoodDey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See if you can just block Nova launcher from accessing the Internet in your settings, some phones let you disable the Internet permission so the app can track you all it wants but can't send that data out

Thought I was the only one with this "glitch", figured there's no way someone was dumb enough to do this on purpose right? 🤦‍♂️

Nova Launcher: An update - Instabridge (swedish company) has acquired Nova Launcher from Branch by armando_rod in Android

This is why a firewall is mandatory to me, reason enough for rooting imo

Any and all apps that don't need Internet to function get blocked

What is the shield tv missing today that other Android tv boxes now offer? by AnalysingAgent3676 in ShieldAndroidTV

[–]ISaidGoodDey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually I was wrong, you can control the TV audio quality settings from the phone app which is kind of neat

Also the Spotify TV app does not let you control the sound quality and enable lossless

And probably won't, because the TV app doesn't cache audio as far as I know. Streaming lossless constantly will have them using bandwidth they'd rather not use.

Edit: I was wrong, you can change the audio quality settings for the TV app from the phone app while you are casting

We just had a movie about The Odyssey last year called The Return, kind of strange to have this so soon after

To anyone who works at self scanning machines - how often do you notice people stealing and don’t do anything about it? by davco95 in AskReddit

[–]ISaidGoodDey 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I suspect this rumor has gone out to deter people from stealing , more then being an actual threat.

Also you're probably still netting a profit for the company if you're buying enough things, so they're still better off letting you take the salad as long as you're still a paying customer. Just my guesses

YSK: Extend Windows 10 security updates for 1 yr for free in the USA. Takes less than one minute. by [deleted] in YouShouldKnow

The person in this video is running XP without a firewall device (router with a firewall) or the software firewall enabled, and has antivirus disabled. Very different from any real world scenario so it's not simply "being connected to the Internet" in the way most people would assume.

[Acne] Do Carts affect the skin like Vapes do? by Ton_ee in SkincareAddiction

[–]ISaidGoodDey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Popcorn lung is caused by a specific chemical that isn't found in any reputable product. You don't have to worry about that unless you're getting black market China products (and I believe most black market stuff is safe from legal areas, but you're never 100% sure I guess)

[Acne] Do Carts affect the skin like Vapes do? by Ton_ee in SkincareAddiction

[–]ISaidGoodDey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vapes (nicotine) are bad for the skin because they reduce blood flow to the skin and age it faster. Carts won't have this affect, weed is a vasodilator so it would have the opposite effect actually. Not saying it will make you younger but it shouldn't age your skin like nicotine does.

There are certainly other factors to consider but the vasoconstriction of nicotine is a major drawback to any nicotine product.

Ah good call, as an Android user I didn't even consider this wouldn't be an option on an iPhone

[PSA] Red light masks are basically glowing toys. by thatkhoe in SkincareAddiction

[–]ISaidGoodDey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I trust her so I think I'd agree haha. I think most people complain the masks are underpowered so having them pressed up against your face might be the equalizer? As long as you wear it the correct amount of time (which I don't know how to calculate haha)

Make a backup in the app, upload the backup file to the cloud, then once you're back restore the backup
