With smartphones current prices and componants becoming more expensive they are realizing not a lot of people will buy a smartphone costing more than 1500 dollars. Especially when hardware is now good enough and people are starting to try to keep their phone as long as possible.

Making you rent your phone allow to hide how much it's going to cost you and ensure them a steady cash income.

What's the difference with ublock and why not contact ublock developer to propose to integrate it instead of what did Brave? Article don't mention what is better with adblock rust! :-/

What happens when you turn off / on developer options? I read some people had to because of their bank apps refusing to work if developer options is on.
Personnally I hate what they are doing, it's not going to protect more and surely it a steps to allow removal to side load in future. I don't think it would fly if Microsoft was doing that on Windows...

What's better with a drop down terminal vs a normal terminal invoked with global short key?

It's a genuine question, never heard about drop down terminal and looked it up. As I understand they are just normal terminal with a visual effect when they open. Am I missing something?

AV2 vs AV1: What the Next-Gen Video Codec Brings to the Table

Or older article but more comprehensive : AV1 vs AV2 Video Codec: 7 Key Differences You Need to Know. It's key takeaways :

AV2 delivers 30% better compression efficiency than AV1, which already compresses 30% better than HEVC (H.265).

AV2 encoding demands 2-3 times more computational power than AV1, requiring advanced hardware like RTX 5090 for practical use.

AV2 will officially release by end of 2025, with widespread hardware support expected around 2027 or later.

AV2 introduces advanced features like split-screen delivery, enhanced AR/VR support, and dynamic bitrate switching for adaptive streaming.

88% of AOMedia members plan to implement AV2 within two years, despite infrastructure and hardware compatibility challenges.

Feeder on Android. Default choice I would say.

It made me wonder if Qifrey could turn out to be a villain ! Not a brimmed cap one but still. He probably has a beef with them seeing how eager is he to personally find them. But how far will he go to exact his revenge!?

I agree, I also try to set the language each time I comment or post. What would be nice would be :

• to have a default selection based on the post language you are answering to or the language set by the community you're posting on
• and to show last selected languages first in the drop down list

It's a shame there is no information on what caused profit falls... It would have been nice to know what's the gross revenue compared to the previous year. Same for staff costs and other operating expenses. Notably, is AI the reason for decline in profit?

Agree I read it as: let's degrade subscribed users experience to protect us from piracy... And then: we should really do more, we don't know why but more and more people are pirating... face palm... As a paying customer if it gets bad enough I would probably revert to the old ways...
Make service good and cheap enough are the only real solutions...

Vivy Fluorite Eye's Song because there was a music tag on it!

I was shocked too! I feared they were going to make him lost it before he could use it... It would have make more sense if he used it inside the shop.

I enjoy this anime even though characters are sometimes stupid. Especially his father: really no investigation beforehand? Don't want to tarnish his name but making himself shown at the guild about something big and about to blabber to all employees Elymas is/was nobility? Sure nobody after that would have known what it is/was all about...

Actually I can reproduce it :

1. Go to [email protected]
2. Check posts "Progress Report: Linux 7.2 - Asahi Linux" are unread, 2 exists on the same community :

• https://sh.itjust.works/post/65752563
• https://sh.itjust.works/post/65743336

1. Open one, go back : both are marked read in the list of posts even though mark duplicates as read is off (also checked view current settings)
2. If you were also subscribed to [email protected] then open it : same post is also read even though you didn't open it

Checked current settings and it was off. I reset it searched for a cross post, couldn't reproduce it. I don't know if it solved itself since I posted or if resetting fixed it. Anyways seems to work now! Thanks for your help.

It's clearly stated in the article.

KDE plans to tackle that through two already ongoing projects: Ocean and Union. Ocean is the new design system, while Union is intended to provide a unified theming engine across applications, Plasma, window decorations, and Plasma Login Manager.

I would add it's often more up to date than distro repositories. It is especially nice when you have long been awaiting a feature and it's finally available.

Hope he gets back his memory. I am not keen on a Subaru which has no past hardship memories. IMHO it is what makes it who he really is!
They are going to make us wait several weeks before knowving more 😡😉

Syncthing has it's own web interface which any web browser can connect to.
For more information refer to syncthing documentation and configuring section. More specifically for the GUI : An Intro to the GUI

Michael Scott is really the perfect personnification!

It's only meant to manage when syncthing is running and notify about running state. Native syncthing webui interface is good and I don't understand why some apps bother to implement their own.
Personnally, no matter if it's on my phone ot desktop, I only use webui. So on Android it's exactly what I need.

On android, imho, there is only 2 alternatives : marcus syncthing tray and syncthing fork.
I would say first one is too complex and don't have a good UI for phone.
Second one is now developed after original dev (catfriend) handed it's repo. Communication about this change has been quite obscure and circonstances are not clear, especially when new owner was without previous history. A lot of people think it's shaddy. It has been several months now and I don't know what's the consensus now!
