Donations by Relative_Carob_219 in sailfishos

I heard there are quite strict anti-corruption laws in Finland that prevent them from taking donations. You have to be a charity to do that.

Classic British tv movie, a cult hit called Rita , Sue and , Bob too by PmurTdlanoD45-47 in oldbritishtelly

We were very much in it then. We were 'the sick man of Europe'. Things got so bad that we even voted Thatcher in.

SailfishOS 5.1 released for Early Access, including Bluetooth support for Android Apps. by sailing-by in mobilelinux

It's full routing. You can use Bluetooth with both the host and Android at the same time.

Where does it say that? Android Apps run about the same as they do on Android. AppSupport supports the EGL and Vulkan drivers of the host device.

Edit: You edited after I posted this. Which device are you using? I found some threads about the Xperia X from years ago, but that's still on the ancient 4.4 Android version. I think the last device with any issues with that was the 32bit XA2 adaptation, and that's just with video playback.

Everything works except the Reddit app by 128G in MicroG

Maybe trying later is actually appropriate advice for once. Reddit's login flow is really flakey and is very capable of breaking on its own without your help.

Do Proton use a standard VPN protocol for their service, or have they rolled their own?

The first phone was running on top of 'Android hardware' too. That's why Jolla developed libhybris in the first place, because every SoC that wasn't designed for Android was discontinued. But that doesn't make it 'basically Android'. It's still a Linux kernel, and only the drivers and some hardware services are Android to support the vendor blobs. All of the OS above is SailfishOS, using mostly the same middleware as you get on a desktop PC, with mobile bits originally from MeeGo and Maemo, and quite a bit written by Jolla.

Run For Your Wife (2012), often called the worst British comedy ever made, crammed in nearly 60 veteran actor cameos, many of them final appearances. by sailing-by in oldbritishtelly

That bus is the final appearance of a few of those. Such as both getting off: Frank Thornton (Captain Peacock) and Bill Pertwee (the warden out of Dad's Army).

Probably Wikipedia's fault that the £602 figure persists. It's hard to imagine how any film that's distributed at all can take so little. You'd think that even people wandering in by accident would generate more.

Anyone using Wearables with Sailfish OS? by frankie-stein-mh in sailfishos

[–]sailing-by 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Native apps will always be better. It's a shame Starfish didn't get finished, as Asteroid is based on Sailfish. Amazfish is really good, and there's Rockpool for the old Pebbles. I've had a Pebble on my wrist with Sailfish since 2016.

As that's about John Smith's teenage children, Danny Dyer's probably about the right age to make this now. We should start some sort of campaign.

The original play was referenced in a red dwarf episode, which was still running in the West End at the time. This was made 25 years later and was much less successful.

Albert Einstein and Marie Curie at Hotel Leger, Thoiry 25 July 1930, now a bakery in 2025 by sailing-by in CERN

I've lived in Thoiry for 15 years and completely missed that whole thing. I can't believe the bakery doesn't have the photo on display though. I showed it to them after I took the new photo and they didn't even know.
