the dropping of support for SMS
Disagree. The fact that most people are clueless about types of messaging and don’t distinguish between SMS, MMS, RCS, iMessage, Signal, Messenger, WhatsApp, Telegram, Line and so on just caused extra confusion for regular users

Fuck, let’s hope they at least allow screws. Click-in latches are prone to breaking and wearing out

the stupidest thing is iPad had USB-C since 2018! and yet on iPhones they latched on to lightning for another 6 years before EU forced them to standardize

Prunes or, more hardcore, sorbitol candy.
- Comment on flashing ROM, is it that easy? 7 months ago:
If you’re only interested in flashing the European version of MIUI/HyperOS then yes, it’s very much straightforward and I can see this device is supported.
If you however want to install a custom rom (LineageOS based) then it’s bit more complicated.
- Comment on flashing ROM, is it that easy? 7 months ago:
Yep. Honestly, Xiaomi is my go-to to recommend to people looking for a budget hackable device. But if you have $700 on hand then Pixel is a way more sensible choice
- Comment on The one your friend borrows 7 months ago:
I think the point is they copyrighted these symbols as part of their branding, just like their logo, so in the context of games and game controllers
- Comment on Where is the best video viewing application today in 2024? 8 months ago:
If I were to only use legal sources of media, then I would stick with either Apple TV or HBO Max (yeah it’s still called that where I live). Otherwise I recommend Cloudstream for Android TV

Hmm, why need dark mode in VLC? You launch a video file and watch it full screen anyway. Also, VLC has themes and last I checked there were couple of them which were sufficiently dark
- Comment on Microsoft starts testing ads in the Windows 11 Start menu 8 months ago:
noone ever does – Microsoft, Google and Facebook must be faking their reports on how effective their advertisement platforms are in order to boost their sales. the sales of ads, not the advertised products

Then why did you recommend FreeTube in the first place? I’m fully aware of LibreTube, Newpipe and Grayjay, but I choose to use Revanced due to factors mentioned in other comment. Using an alternative clients such as those listed above does not solve the global issue of Google making fucking stupid decisions, even if you yourself are not touched by them because you happen to use Newpipe

Then how is this helpful for a feature on the mobile app?
- Comment on YouTube now suggests new content *by colour* 10 months ago:
But this is for desktop?
- Comment on YouTube now suggests new content *by colour* 10 months ago:
This reminds of how Xiaomi introduced sorting by colours of the app icon in their launcher. But that was different and I believe actually helped getting around

Also, I wonder how that works if you’re colorblind?
This was probably a joke but I can actually answer that for you.
First of all, afaik there is no scientific consensus that people see the colours the same way. In fact, we most likely don’t. The visual colour interpretation is mostly likely merely added on by our brains basing on the knowledge of wavelengths. In other words, there is no such thing as “absolute blue”. There is “a blue” which is the colour each one of us’ brains was taught to call blue by simply showing the sky. If I were to look through your brain (but not through your eyes, eyes understand wavelengths), we would probably disagree on each and every colour.
Second of all, there are different kinds of colour blindness. It is in fact an umbrella term for different disabilities. My understanding is that they usually involve a spectrum between two hues. So most colourblind will simply be unable to tell a difference between objects of two colours: for example red and green. They see them as slightly different versions of the same colour. However it would be wrong to say that the person in question sees red as green or vice versa, because, again, there are no “absolute colours”. Their eyes cannot distinguish between these two ranges of wavelengths and the brain interprets them as the same colour.
And finally, colourblind people, when diagnosed, are fully aware of being colourblind, and furthermore, they DO NOT see in black and white. Even if a person cannot distinguish red and orange, then they still are aware there is a difference that most people around can tell and that there are concepts and feelings associated with them.
What I am trying to say is that a colour-blind person would probably still be able to, for example, associate “red” videos with action and blood, and “green” ones with nature and calmness, even though this distinction is not palpable to them.
Either way, this filtering with thumbnail colour is fucking stupid.

This is on Revanced, lol. Not sure there is a plugin to remove that yet
