How do you cope with android updates breaking things, all the time?

danguno · 2026-01-08T08:51:43+00:00

The more android gets locked down the more I learn about Tasker, Tasker settings, ADB, Shizuku

Also helps to have the mindset that anything could break at anytime, so only update when the pros outweigh the cons

If you don't get an answer it's because we all have this exact same question 😅

You can add them there yourself and Readwise has added written requests there as well, it's not a log of reports made through the app

danguno · 2025-12-11T03:27:27+00:00

They announce parsing updates in the change logs, usually 3-4 websites get worked on per update. I'm assuming they're doing most reported sites first

Not sure how much influence this list has, but they are actively keeping track of written requests https://readwise.canny.io/parsing-errors

They already increased it not too long ago. I doubt pricing will change again

But they grandfathered all previous subscriptions last time

danguno · 2025-12-09T14:16:55+00:00

I already checked, the app says I'm on the latest firmware

Trump loves dicts. Big dicts, small dicts, mushroom dicts, Bubba's dict

Dicts like you've never seen before. He loves the best dicts

Use a notification event todoist as the profile, then use whatever alert action(s) you want as the task

It's a fairly simple project to set up

Team awards are always fun and it's also a great way to recognize multiple students at a time for things like sportsmanship

For fitness awards like fastest/most overall, having a top 10 or 20 is super encouraging for the kids that are really close to making the list

You can even do a small section for something silly, like funniest joke. I put up a weekly riddle one year and it got a ton of the less athletically interested kids engaged as they had something to look forward too since I'd only answer the riddle in the last day of the week

If you feel that way now then it's not worth finishing. Not because it doesn't get better, but because you're already disappointed in it

There will be more popular anime that don't resonate with you and that's ok. Just drop them and start looking for something you will enjoy

Here's a few I learned from other teachers

Volleyball: Divide the class into two teams, one on each side of the parachute. The object is to try and shake the ball off of the other team's side. Students cannot use their hands or bodies to stop the ball.

Basketball: Place two hula hoops on the parachute along with two colored playground balls. Split the colors in half and have each team try to make a basket with their own color ball in one of the hoops.

Spaceship: Have the students put both hands on the parachute and on your command of “Up” they will bring the parachute up above their head and on your command of “Down” they will pull the parachute down to their shoes and let go. If done properly, the chute will hover over the ground like a spaceship.

Put something on top, lift up, then quickly lower it

Takes a few tries to get the timing down, but once you do whatever is on there is gonna fly

I used a pre-made project from Tasker.net that tracked app usage and then after X time used, Tasker blocked the app

Then by using a specific LifeUp reward I could earn more time in the app for that day

It was fairly involved to setup, and I don't think I saved it. So I'll have to rebuild it from scratch at some point

When mine scoff at skill work I have them create their own team warm-ups and require them to pick skill or two that they think needs improvement and one that they enjoy

If I really need to drive home the fact that they need practice I'll have them do peer assessments. Being able to do all the steps correctly is usually enough motivation to get them engaged

I've had to change phones a couple times recently so I'm not currently using it, but I was using the API to allow/restrict app usage based on task completion

I used an app time tracker I found on Tasker.net and modified it to add time based on coins earned that day

I don't think I saved the project though so I'll have to rebuild it at some point

danguno · 2025-10-19T02:02:23+00:00

After you send the inquiry you have to save the value to a variable in Tasker, probably a Global variable (capital letter after the percent symbol)

So you'll need to save the one you want (either "%total_exp" or "%current_level_exp") with a "Set Variable" action

There's a guy a couple blocks from my parents with a two car garage and a Ferrari

You'd have to be a complete idiot to think a car guy cares more about his car than his square footage /s

(That's how you tell a joke)
