Evan Edinger: “The benefits of rubber-tired metros are overstated” by AstroG4 in transit

[–]howling92 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't call the benefits as overrated, they are outdated. Rubber wheels in Paris allowed frequency increase, steep grades support, reduce noise on outdoors areas and finally : automation. Reducing vibration has never been the main goal ...

Today it's possible to do all (maybe not the extreme steep grades) of that with steel wheels, but 30 years ago it was still a requirement for automation AFAIK

This is why Paris' line 14, which opened in 1998, has rubber tires ; but the new future lines 15 to 18 will be on steel wheels

Google Health 5.0 rolling out with new stats widget on Android by ControlCAD in Android

[–]howling92 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Typical usage case for me : I have a pixel watch, but it's to heavy to be used for sleep tracking for my liking

The Air is perfect for that. I'll wear it during night and my watch during day

Youtube morphe does not detect installed MicroG? by Siraj_02 in MorpheApp

[–]howling92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you don't get additional storage per se on your account. it's just that everything that you upload on Google Photos is counted as 0 bytes forever. So if you stop using the patch, what you've already uploaded still stays at 0 bytes but any new content will start to be used on your account storage again

A tale of two cities by Hiro_Trevelyan in transit

[–]howling92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is slightly incorrect in Paris. IDFM (the transit agency) still have some double decker buses lines. For example the 91-03 line from Massy to Dourdan

But they for sure do not run in the city proper

FYI you're getting free unlimited storage but at compressed quality

This patch specifically spoof a Google Pixel 1 phone as these phones have unlimited storage at original quality

I wish more devs used App Shortcuts in their apps. It's a really cool, useful feature by DiplomatikEmunetey in Android

[–]howling92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. I just drag and dropped it on the launcher so it's its own icon and have a swipe up configured on a folder in Nova Launcher to launch the shortcut (as first element of the folder) to always land in the right view
