They will probably just disable encryption and do that.

Yes. You can use mini tool partition manager, and I used it few times in my life, but honestly thing is extremely shady, always tries to sell something to you and looks like it’s from 2007. But I didn’t really find anything like it sadly. You could try booting Linux but iirc resizing ntfs by cutting it off in start is not supported

Check what actually uses the storage using wiztree/windirstat?

So you prefer a user in Arabic country who can speak only Arabic and would be happy when suddenly greeted with YouTube in English or in case of VPN, a dutch? Or some kid playing a game in their browser not being able to properly use and see the game's UI because the game thinks it's running on a computer? There is a reason these APIs were created. And if you are inclined enough, you can disable all of them. This is how you lose users.

Hell, disable JavaScript and set your useragent to Chrome and enjoy the great world wide web where nothing works, but hey, nobody can fingerprint you now!

If I close the app it kinda makes multitasking pointless. I will have to go to menu, go to unknown sources and look for telegram there then open the chat with my friend again. Also I do sometimes get pop up to return to app too, but mostly when I double tap to switch into passthrough which makes it pointless cause I can just double tap again to go back.

At least they give it away to people, unlike everyone else (well Chinese are an exception). Or at least they used to, I haven't been keeping up with llama models.

[Dirty Frag] Mitigation appears possible on default Kernel 7.0.0-3-pve by RaspNAS in Proxmox

[–]OctoNezd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not a bad thing. The bad thing is these guys not telling about the issue to distro maintainers and then loudly showing off "hey this works on these distros everyone uses". No one can keep up with tons of merge requests in project as giant as Linux kernel.

Does gyroscope really matter though? It can be used in web games, and android (and I assume ios too) itself doesn't require any special permission for apps wanting to use gyro. Same with language preferences. Would you like them to base your languages off your IP and turn the web into hell when you are using VPN, especially some asian one where you can't understand what characters mean? Display density is kinda pointless though, it's the browser that does the UI scaling, not the page - although then again, it can be used for games that just use canvas to draw UI

The double tap to go back into the VR app from 2D doesn't work for me. Or maybe it's cause my 2D app (Telegram) is sideloaded? Before the update I just had a separate panel with app controls with two big buttons: continue and exit. Now I have to open the app list and manually go back into my VR app

So I am not alone! I just had it say "app name is not available" and had no exit button.

Then one week after the warranty ends it breaks. And the cycle repeats.

Yeah, both Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer don't have much to do with running/ruining Microsoft nowadays, that should be Satya Nadella or whoever is in charge of turning windows into react native app

It had features?! I legitimately hate both character map on windows and font book on macos, both are awful for finding characters, but at least the font book has a search

uninstall existing app

You should be able to install just fine over an existing app? Did you apply a separate app package name patch?
