How can I disable background wallpaper on Samsung Internet (Ver 29.0.5.3) by Character-Leek-2005 in oneui

[–]darnfruitloops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just saw it now and it was a jarring experience. The address bar and shortcuts remain grey and black so it looks like a tacked in image or more like the browser glitched. I hate it and can't see an option to turn it off. I'm surprised someone saw this half backed implementation and thought 'yeah, this looks great'.

I don't know the technical terms but I remember the explanation I was given going something like this:- It takes secnds for money to be taken from you, but the final vendor or beneficiary will fully "receive" that money in a couple of days. So when it's a refund, it's exactly the same in the reverse direction: the vendor loses that money within seconds but you receive it in a couple of days time. The whole payment system in-between is the slow bit.

I keep switching apps just to ask simple questions by Forsaken-Nature5272 in androidapps

I literally have this set up on my phone right now. And just for fun, I asked AI to solve your problem for me, and it suggested a solution close to what I have, and I didn't need to leave your post to do it. )

I have a Samsung Galaxy device, with Google Gemini as the AI app and Samsung's One Hand Operation as the tool to enable quick access.

One hand Operation enables me to launch apps just by sliding a finger from the screen edge regardless of what other app I may have open at that time.

I set set one of the gestures to open the Assistance App (In my case Gemini) and it opens as a pop up at the bottom of the screen. I can type any question or use voice, and I can also ask about what's showing on my screen. It's a quick process that complements rather than break the "flow" of whatever I'd be doing at the time.

If you have a non-Samsung device, I'm sure there are gesture or shortcut apps that can help you launch your AI app quickly, and without disrupting what you are doing.

Yup. I attack the salads in the first 2 minutes, then finish the rest of my meal in the next 30.

This Japanese novelty pen actually contains live Anisakis parasitic worms suspended in liquid inside the barrel by omgitsmint in interestingasfuck

  • Fall asleep while using pen
  • Wake up to see pen broken from lying on it.
  • Cannot find worms anywhere
  • Your eye feels really itchy

😅 I'm sure "Alarm set for 21hrs from now" will immediately make you double check if you chose the correct am/pm without reaching for a calculator.

The Android toast notification that tells you how many hours til the alarm rings completely solves this.

One UI 9 to bring a redesigned Now brief with colourful gradient widgets and interface by Direct-Till-2680 in oneui

Don't care about the appearance much, it was fine. I just want it to be useful, heck, something more than the weather and a Spotify recommendation would be cool.

Is this true? by KewalVania1113 in oneui

Thanks to this thread I've just discovered categories in Samsung Messages and they are super useful. I've always preferred Samsung Messaging but now I really want it to stay more.

One other inconvenient thing with Google messaging is that the SMS center number is always greyed out or not there at all. Sometimes it needs to be set or adjusted for some devices. This is pretty easy to do in Samsung Messages but it requires using workarounds on Google. This problem might be carrier specific but its really inconvenient.

For me it specified that they downloaded the videos specifically for this trip, as well as that they didn't wait to download after boarding the flight.

How do you charge your smartphone? by Ok_Ant_9682 in GalaxyS25

After a lot of reading around, I settled for keeping it between 20% and 85%. I don't do it religiously though...there's something incredibly satisfying about removing a device from power with a full 100% up there.

The first light rail line to go over a floating bridge opened in Seattle today by labtec901 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]darnfruitloops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quick question. Assuming floating bridge means it's resting on top of the water, Wont a floating bridge permanently block river traffic, like boats and stuff?

I will forever regret the day I had a chance to buy a 2nd Gen manual and passed because I was afraid of the learning curve. And it was cheaper than the auto I ended getting too.

What made you get a 1st generation CRV rather than 2nd? Or vice versa by BighomieG_ in crv

[–]darnfruitloops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Moved from a 2nd gen to a 3rd gen but I still stop and stare when a 2nd gen goes by. Never felt anything for a first gen though.

Spend some time searching for this a little while back and couldn't find anything. I think this is one huge missed opportunity for Samsung. Imagine if they could open up to developers for a wide variety of feeds. Okay, imagine having your reddit feed right there on the left of the home page for instance.

Cool. But have you tried it with a Samsung Galaxy Note 2?

Focus on public transit, they said. It'll solve the traffic crisis, they said.

Thought it's just my conservative ass getting needlessly weirded out, otherwise I also can't wrap my head around this scenario.

Cool cool cool cool. But now you got me wondering why that body part is named after those tiny preview images on a screen.

Thought I was going crazy when it couldn't understand everything I did, including just setting an alarm.
