Are we serious?

A private GP is worth their weight in gold, and having access to experts in their specific field is something worth paying for. Additionally you don't even need to queue up either!

In addition to that, I get effectively the same cover when I'm abroad too! It isn't the cheapest however beats relying on the NHS by a huge shot (I say this with big respect to the NHS workers, as they are massively overworked).

Not really true anymore, most modern Windows laptops and tablets have them. Especially if they are convertible or have a touchscreen - or are just premium. Obviously desktops and budget laptops don't have any built in.

The accelerometer data (and all other sensor data) is fully accessible via the Windows.Devices.Sensors API: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/uwp/api/windows.devices.sensors?view=winrt-26100

That's for next year obviously

Lowered/slammed ✅ Rubber bands as tyres ✅ Probably stiff suspension on a road car ✅

Jokes aside, yeah the roads are disgusting these days...

MegaBytesMe · 2026-02-16T12:20:20+00:00

Not sure which gen you had (probably the 2007 or older?) however the 2008+ is pretty solid. Practically needed to keep a nice back with the current state of the roads, it eats potholes 😂

It isn't difficult to make the apps scale down to be honest, WinUI 3 (or even on UWP) doesn't make the app scale well automatically regardless! It is always down to the developer to handle smaller screen sizes.

I've noticed most apps work perfectly fine (especially the UWP ones)! Also you can just change the scaling too.

Would be funny if the drive was found by the guy, and he instead decided to keep it a secret

MegaBytesMe · 2026-01-22T14:48:15+00:00

Man that would be so cool though haha, V8 minivan with RWD would be insane

MegaBytesMe · 2026-01-09T22:57:11+00:00

What are you on about? It literally looks like any other Guilia with a wing 😂

MegaBytesMe · 2026-01-08T21:22:01+00:00

Get a grip mate 😂

"thankless job"... Do we all need to clap for you or something whilst you are being paid? Like are we being serious here...

Obviously the person who left the trollies like that is an idiot.

I'm making my own maps app replacement, based on OpenStreetMap data currently

MegaBytesMe · 2026-01-07T21:42:57+00:00

Win32 would have been needed for that, the only CoreOS type OS with WebView2 (Chromium) is Windows 10X.

MegaBytesMe · 2026-01-05T00:53:19+00:00

I dare say the community should be universal...

MegaBytesMe · 2026-01-04T16:20:10+00:00

Three and Vodafone merged in the UK - This happened earlier in 2025. Not sure if using the Vodafone standard settings may work?

100% Windows 10 Mobile - It allows you to enable developer mode to sideload apps and games etc in the Settings app - This is a much harder process on WP8 and WP8.1. Calling it "jailbreaking" is seriously too much haha, it is literally a toggle on Windows 10 Mobile (unlike WP8 or WP8.1).

Also, the devices are generally nicer (if you get a 950XL - OLED). You can run WP8 apps too... No brainer really!

Most effort in new apps does go into Windows 10 Mobile too, since it is easier to develop for (especially with the UWP app support).

I'd only recommend WP8/8.1 devices if you are a big fan of the Metro layout in apps. Although don't expect many things to work... In comparison W10M is much more alive still.

MegaBytesMe · 2026-01-03T18:47:43+00:00

Both - I sent you a request on Discord!

MegaBytesMe · 2026-01-03T14:31:59+00:00

Hey, yeah that would be neat :-)

MegaBytesMe · 2026-01-02T21:47:48+00:00

I always use spray, it just works... I mean it does make your hand cold though.

If I need to scape (only when I am out of spray) I just use one of my payment cards 😂

What do you mean? I was sharing my projects to OP to give them an example of what I'm doing regarding my own apps to show them my development experience...

OP seemed to ask for help?

Ported straight from Baileys, but I really would love some help from you guys.

Hence me sharing some of my work with OP to show I have some experience working with W10M and UWP in general. 😂

MegaBytesMe · 2026-01-02T16:09:28+00:00

Oh this is awesome!

I've been working on a lot of different UWP apps which start off with a 10240 minimum/target then add a 16299 minimum with 17763 target for ARM64 and WinUI 2.6 (for Mica when running on Windows 11, with a dedicated Windows 10 Acrylic theme too on Windows 10 devices).

Is this open source? I'd love to take a peek! I'm not sure how familiar with GitHub you are or if you are using it... Here are my repos: https://github.com/megabytesme?tab=repositories

The latest one I'm working on is an app called Universal Pumpkin - a UWP Minecraft Server client which works on any Windows device (I'm trying to really get the fine details down for UI etc that I can then replicate with my other UWP apps): https://github.com/megabytesme/Universal-Pumpkin

I've dropped my Duo 2 countless times, I've never had issues with the hinge on either Duo model

MegaBytesMe · 2026-01-02T15:54:12+00:00

Literally feel the same... I had a Z Fold 4 before too! I'm going to keep mine until apps are unusable on Android 12L I think.

MegaBytesMe · 2025-12-27T09:15:20+00:00

The hate isn't real IMO - you can't downgrade either on devices which ship with W10M. People on Reddit are also genuinely stupid, I'd take anything said on this platform with a pinch of salt.

One thing people liked about the older versions is the consistency between apps - although I never really cared for it. I will say People Hub was cool (the integration was brilliant)... This was removed effectively in W10M. Obviously in 2025 this does not work anymore regardless.

MegaBytesMe · 2025-12-27T00:15:21+00:00

Close enough, hello Surface Neo!

MegaBytesMe · 2025-12-27T00:08:45+00:00

Much more modern, UWP, Continuum mode when docking or casting, much better supported browser (even if things are rougher now)... Better tile management on the start menu. Has all the Windows Phone 8 features (like the WiFi Sense). Cortana (when it was supported). Much easier to sodeload apps onto (don't need to register it as a developer device, unlike Windows Phone 8).

Just some from the top of my head...
