ITT: “I don’t want a Chinese phone and want a decent camera and performance.” “Get the Chinese phone and install this unstable ROM which makes the camera awful and randomly drains battery in a few hours, because ‘Known bugs? You tell me!’.”

Maybe the experience with custom ROMs is better now than 15 to 5 years ago when I did that kind of thing, but I still won’t be wilfully giving the Chinese more money than I have to.

Yes, it can be turned off.

That’s the thing. Samsung is already quite bad with price/performance ratio against Chinese brands. But Sony is whole another level. If headphone jack & no China were my only requirements, I’d buy some low-end Samsung. But I also want some performance, decent camera with OIS… Sony for the price around 400 € doesn’t even record 60 fps video and also I’m not sure I could tolerate 60 Hz display again. HMD is Chinese, of course.

Current situation is I’ll just use A52s until it dies (I have it over 2 years now, recently got latest Android and battery still generally lasts 2 days of light use and a whole day of geocaching I like to do)… And then I’ll have to probably get a BT headphones with a next phone…

Hmm. Again without 3.5mm jack. I love my A52s and really have no idea what I’ll get next since this makes the A5x series phone effectively 100 € (or 20 %) more expensive for me. But what other is there to choose in this price range than some Chinese phones…

It’s on the steering wheel. He can just steer and that solves the problem.

That means the head of your dick must be visible.

Oh, Billy Mitchell, you silly bitch, what is Karl going to make videos about now? I guess back to the Minecraft stuff!

For real though, they settled the case with Twin Galaxy, but the case between Karl and Billy is about something else, so it still continues, doesn’t it?

I don’t get it. Do people really want such awful blurry and messy images as their background? And since this is a promo image, I suppose it’s the best case scenario you could get.

Also, maybe it’s just my bad English, but the picture doesn’t seem to match the prompt at all? It asks for lavenders in front of red galaxy and shows blurry sakura trees in front of a pine forest.

That’s most probably a good thing. I don’t really see how a new colour scheme could be more atrocious than the current one.

Hmm. I dislike that it uploads every thing as a separate change. I much more prefer editing the whole area and saving it as one neat package, rather than posting hundreds of “this is road is made of asphalt” posts.

So it’s not for me, but if that helps to make OSM better, I’m all for it!

Maybe I could make a separate account without neat history and from time to time click some icons in the app though. That probably wouldn’t bother me as much.

Since every major release od Vivaldi is unstable until it gets 2-3 minor updates, I feel like “massive code refactoring” means it’ll need at least 5 updates this time. I’ll give it a few weeks. But the changelog looks cool nonetheless.

I use this userscript script to hide some keywords on the website. You need an userscript extension like Violentmonkey to install it.

I started using Vivaldi when they finally added sync a d the sync is a thing I have the most problems with!

I randomly get duplicate notes and bookmarks if I edit some.

It always feels like ages until things get synchronized between devices (e.g. tabs).

There’s this very prominent button in the share menu “Send to device” which doesn’t work at all (I’ve read somewhere that it’s a deprecated thing from Chromium, but why haven’t they removed it for several years it’s broken…?)

And also in past months it just randomly disconnected from the server several times on several devices, didn’t even notify me except for changing the sync icon (on Android you have to go to the settings menu), and for a reconnect, I had to enter the passphrase again each time.

I killed Ganon and still had no idea how to actually do these things.
