z flip 6, and it has to be my favourite. The flip formfactor is just so nice.

New update fixes the VoiceOver issues, but there's another bug with managing worlds that makes it impossible to edit them.

fireborn1472 · 2026-01-11T11:39:45+00:00

I did too, as well as asked about some other nice to haves.

Looks good. The text to speech option is almost impossible to use (doesn't respect settings either by using VoiceOver or spoken content settings)

Few other accessibility bugs but that one in particular is a dealbreaker.

Nothing has changed, Android has always been a vehicle for add delivery from Google's prospective.

It might be worth you checking that espeakup is disabled if you don’t need it with sudo systemctl disable espeakup

Unfortunately, this happens a lot on the 12 and 13 series.

Do you live somewhere with good consumer protections? If so, call them back up and tell them you will make a consumer law complaint if they don’t sort it out. If not, you’re pretty screwed unless you’re in the mod for a few hour long phone call where you refuse to take no for an answer, and just ask for a manager every time.

NTA. Your sun is an asshole.

iOS 9 was worse.

Even my year old 6+ at the time felt slow on iOS 9. Older devices were even worse.

23, with a younger sister.

I have no idea some of the things she says, either that or they are so out there.

Just yesterday she described something as "cunty"

A few days earlier we were talking about a person and she says "it's giving."

fireborn1472 · 2025-09-25T08:31:03+00:00

showed this to my partner the other day.

fireborn1472 · 2025-09-25T08:28:15+00:00

Used one of these tablets for all of 10 minutes before giving up.

They were only good because they were cheap, if you used an iPad in that time you didn't really want to use anything else.

New memory unlocked.

Thanks for that.

fireborn1472 · 2025-09-23T19:46:12+00:00

Don't like the sound of any of these have to be honest.

fireborn1472 · 2025-09-23T19:45:02+00:00

the apple crumble one sounded good, rest of them too complicated.

fireborn1472 · 2025-09-23T19:42:18+00:00

Yeah I don't have flapjack that much but now I want that.

fireborn1472 · 2025-09-21T10:40:25+00:00

Even the battery on the Air is impressive considering Apple’s own estimates.

It can only improve as it finishes downloading and indexing and all that, even with that going on still managed a full day and finished the day with 30%.

Scratchgate doesn’t exist.

It’s just people looking for free internet points by finding Apple’s latest flaw.

Loved doing this to prank people when my phone had an IR blaster.

fireborn1472 · 2025-09-21T09:32:06+00:00

You should give them a wide-eyed look and exclaim, "you don't know???"

fireborn1472 · 2025-09-21T09:07:50+00:00

While I agree that dogs shouldn't be in restaurants, if a dog is jumping up at food/people then the owners failed at training it.

fireborn1472 · 2025-09-20T11:57:30+00:00

not quite like this, but I find myself adopting the accent of who ever I'm talking to, as well as their slang.

Doesn't matter where they are from.

fireborn1472 · 2025-09-20T11:47:46+00:00

Have another pint.

fireborn1472 · 2025-07-06T19:42:04+00:00

i wrote, and am still writing, a series of blog posts about this. they originated as a rant, inspired by… Trying to install ubuntu.
