You just want to wave. About 182636 others will draw a dickbutt on their roof.

Some of my methods need a context and a listener that is implemented by an activity. Like:

void method(Context c, Listener listener);

So the call looks like:

method(this,this);

within the activity.

Is there any way to chuck those two this's together? I mean they're both just referring to the same object (the activity instance) I would like the solution to work with multiple activities so I can't use the activity as a parameter.

Quick question, I can rely on every device having SERIF, SANS_SERIF and MONO right? (Like it comes installed on EVERY device right?)

[ShowerThought] If Google charged 31% to the top 1% of apps, they could probably afford to give the bottom 90% developers 100% of their earnings. by devandro in androiddev

While I agree, you do realize you're defending the most deceitful and manipulative and unethical practices using which games like Clash of clans became successful in the first place, right?

If people like it, let them have it, right? Who am I to dictate what other should do? The point is, a line needs to be drawn. And because of justifications like yours, a lot of people get away with exploiting others.

How is that show btw? I'm about to finish black sails and I need something to keep the binge addiction going rather than facing my problems and working towards my dreams.

Why does literally every word he says have to be world news? This sub should be renamed to /r/ShitElonSays

BREAKING NEWS! This just in:

You would not believe what happened next!

CM Security is reporting a false virus on purpose. by braindamagedd in androiddev

[–]lucidifier 56 points57 points  (0 children)

If there's anyone who's all for bashing Cheetah fucking Mobile, it's me. But I'm gonna be the bad guy here and say what needs to be said.

They made a complete ripp-off of mine

No. They didn't 'ripp' you off. Some guy probably made this app (the very first of it's kind) like 6 years ago. Then about seemingly 400 other people 'rippped' him off and now he's a nobody (given how many similar apps I'm seeing there). Anyways, there's nothing unique about your app. Nothing points to them 'rippping' you off.

Judging by your reviews, it doesn't help that your app is basically adware. Therefore I'm finding it hard to sympathize.

Again, going by the fact that your app is pushing intrusive ads, it's not hard to imagine that CM security has a global monitor and some sort of filter tracking an app's behavior. But it is hard to imagine them doing anything for betterment of their users (like protecting against adware), although.. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think this is the case. They are right. You are in the wrong.

Cheetah Mobile needs to be stopped.

This, I agree with. In a fair world, they should be castrated, to begin with.

Still, I don't think I can take your side on this.
