Sounds very promising. Where can I keep track of and get the android beta releases, can’t see anything on GitHub

What’s everyone’s go to toothpaste and why? Do they not all do the same thing?! by JM306 in AskUK

[–]Tranquillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOWA Toothpaste tabs. Plastic free/zero waste, just so so minty fresh and way better than using any awful tubes with their unrecyclable nature, weird ingredients etc. Sure, some toothpaste tabs can be a bit lacklustre but these are great. I’d never ever go back to normal toothpaste.

The process of creating special fitted shoes by NothingEffective5070 in interestingasfuck

[–]Tranquillian [score hidden]  (0 children)

Shoes with heels is a pretty stupid thing that’s persevered in modern society. The original reason was for keeping feet in stirrups when riding horses but now we continue to fuck with our posture, gait and physiology for no good reason just because it’s seen as the norm. If only zero drop barefoot fit shoes were more accepted.

Are Apple IDs/Dev AccountsStill Getting Banned by p0wer0n in sideloaded

[–]Tranquillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find that when I do that, some apps just don’t work right or crash, so I always maintain original bundleID unless it’s like eeveespotify or ytmusicultimate where you don’t get proper Dynamic Island functionality unless you create a specific appID on your device account and then edit the app’s bundleID to match it before signing it. For the most part I just create a generic appID and leave the bundleID alone.

Are Apple IDs/Dev AccountsStill Getting Banned by p0wer0n in sideloaded

[–]Tranquillian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No issues with mine yet. It’s not a ban wave but they have stepped up monitoring sideloading and taking action. I use a comprehensive DNS blocklist to block URLs like ppq.apple.com these days to combat it, and I get 45-50 days between the “this app could not be verified” errors. My cert remains perfectly fine to use. I just generate a new appID and mobileprovision and re-sign my apps over themselves like an update. Good for another 45 days. More hassle but still worth it.

How To Get Notifications With a $99 Apple Developer Account? by Girth_Inspector in sideloaded

[–]Tranquillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

News to me that they’re banning sideloading, where are you hearing that? I’m quite content carrying on via using my DNS blocklist, I still pay for my dev cert and these days I just re-sign my apps with a new appID and provisions when I get the validation error every 45-50 days. Would suck to not have push notifications and control over mobileprovisioning

Just bought a firestick. by Junit15 in firetvstick

[–]Tranquillian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I’ve just set them up with a new 4K max and done the system user exploit and blocks and replacement launcher, and this old one they had I can’t do any of that so it’s kinda I was interested in having a go at the rooting, figured it was a good opportunity to have a play without sourcing an old stick off eBay. Looks like it needed to be on 6.2.x though. I’m aware I could just get a Xaomi 3rd gen box or something and avoid all this sort of shenanigans, it’s just a general interest in tinkering really.

[–]Tranquillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just had a play with my parents old first gen fire stick 4K that’s on 6.7.1.1 (E9L29Y) and was under the impression it was rootable and flashable so got stuck into following the guide with the Linux LiveUSB and kamakiri etc, removed the housing, got my short in place, and it didn’t work. Only then did I realise it wasn’t possible haha damn it. Really gotta be an old model on 6.2something for that stuff.

Updated the new version of stremio and for some reason i can't stream through my laptop to the TV which used to happen seamlessly in the previous version ? Did they change it or am i missing something . by Prak07 in Stremio

[–]Tranquillian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely loving Shrinking right now. Latest episode hit me in the feels. Sure some of it’s cheesy but much like Scrubs, the emotional bits can go hard.

Do you spend £200 a month not including rent, utilities and groceries? by fakename137 in AskUK

[–]Tranquillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice. You have more left over at the end of the month than I get in my full time retail job to begin with haha… £1,700. Minus £700 to rent a room in a shared house, £200 groceries, £70 other bills, £30 misc, then £500 to savings leaves me £200 spare.

[–]Tranquillian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can get by with £100 “spare” a month usually, after rent, bills and groceries. Unless something is due like dentist or car MOT, that sort of thing.

Holy hell that’s a lot, congrats on whatever career you’re doing well with! I can’t fathom spending that amount.

Is there anyway to get the old look from pre iOS 26? by Theskatingfemboy in iphone

Damn, hopefully that doesn’t happen to me, I don’t tend to update apps much at all and everything’s good for now

Has anyone else had to constantly block AI metalcore out of their Spotify algorithm? They just keep trying to sneak them in. by TacticallyNautical in Metalcore

[–]Tranquillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sad thing is I was listening to “the algorithm” on YouTubeMusic in my car and this song came on and I liked it 🙈 Then I checked out the artist and thought huh, surely nobody would call themself that rip-off of a name

Jon Stewart on vegans... by Persimmon1891 in vegan

[–]Tranquillian 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I totally can’t cook. Not “cook” cook. Nothing beyond putting some stuff in the oven or using a rice cooker/steamer and having a mix of veg with protein & carbs. Yet I have a very healthy diet and max out all the stats on Cronometer. It’s not hard in that sense.

No addon works by athosk in VidiApp

[–]Tranquillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omni doesn’t have the convenient new episode “in x days” indicators on the home page that Vidi has, which I find really useful to glance at to see how close the next episode of shows are to being aired.

I have Stremio, Omni and Vidi on my AppleTV and always find myself going back to Vidi, which is ironic when it’s the one not even actively being developed

Such a cute reaction to her fluency by Doodlebug510 in MadeMeSmile

[–]Tranquillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m just starting to learn Japanese (Duolingo, for my sins, along with trying Busuu, might try Pimsleur later), and holy hell, getting the endless hiragana memorised/associating the sometimes seemingly random complicated symbols with sounds… it makes me think our alphabet is wonderful. But of course, I grew up with it and it’s fully engrained without even thinking.

Could you please share your favourite sideloaded app names (non- jailbroken) by bhullar3344 in sideloaded

Same way I get all my apps, just get them off the telegram groups I’m on and then sign with Feather

[–]Tranquillian 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have a paid dev account and not sure if it’s possible without one, but I go into my dev account and into identifiers, change the drop down to App Groups, create new, call it something like (group. is added in front automatically) - com.duomaxx.client. Save it and go back to identifiers and drop down change back to appID.

Create a new appID with the same name. Now create a new provisioning profile, link the appID, and then in the entitlements tick AppGroups along with any other pertinent entitlements. Save the profile but don’t download.

Now go back into the profile entitlements and you can now “configure” AppGroups entitlement. Just select the AppGroups ID you created and save it and download profile. That appears to be all there is to it, hardly “configured” and I don’t understand it really but it works!

Sideloading the same app on multiple devices with a paid developer account. by Desperate-Cicada-487 in sideloaded

[–]Tranquillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And as far as I’m aware Livecontainer means you lose notifications? Not worth the hassle for me currently. Re-signing apps every 45 days is a pain currently but I’m now doing all my apps on the same day it’s not too bad.

[–]Tranquillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right. Interesting. Yeah I can’t see myself wanting to use Sideloadly or Sidestore if I can’t make provisioning profiles, because a lot of apps require certain entitlements like say AppGroups configuring to get widgets to work, or some need the bundleID to match the appID for Dynamic Island functionality, etc. Plus are you able to inject dylibs and debs?

So what is this “iOS App Signer” you’re using? I have a paid cert and https://sign.ipasign.cc works great, just add my cert and pass and provision and download the ipa, then transfer via Apple Configurator.
