What is favourite File manager app and why ?
While not great as a general file manager, I use this app to launch into the hidden, built in file manager in Android. The major benefit is that it can access apps' data directories. Every other file manager is blocked from that (at least without root).

Move along
Didn't soak beans today, put dry into the pressure cooker. Result #1: mostly mushy, some crunchy. Result #2: lesson learned.

I have a Galaxy S24 with the gesture bar hidden. It lets me do circle to search by holding down where the gesture bar would be.

Tofu in a tomato gravy, steamed bokchoy and vermicelli
That looks really good! But I would mix it up before eating, haha

Totally fair, tho we don't need it to run Android. Some locked down OS that only does phone calls might be okay.

Yup. It could also be hardware failure in the sense of a flakey power button. Either way, it's probably not people intentionally pushing the power button a lot

Pixel 4a (not 5G) owners, what do you plan to do with your phone now that it reached its final Android update?
I'll probably hang tight until Pixel 8 comes out.

How to oil these door hinges?
Reply in thread
Thanks! I found some old "Liquid Wrench Powerful Penetrating Oil" in the toolbox. Looks like it has a spray nozzle. Do you think that would be good? I don't mind buying a new oil, or even using something from the kitchen (coconut?) as long as it's a good solution.
Thanks again!

Nope, I started to look as disassembling, but as another commented said, these are pretty different. That pin it turns out goes all the way through, and the holes on the bottom let me poke all the way through. That means the inside is hollow! Looks like I'll avoid disassembling

Was the Android 14 update recalled?
Reply in thread
At least on Chrome OS, update engine does have a recall feature. The server can say, "if you've downloaded and installed an update and you're waiting to boot into it, cancel it and stick with what you have"

The joy of cabbage
I am a huge cabbage fan as well. To the vinegar I would also add oil, salt, and pepper. Other nice touches include some shredded carrots or a bit of raw onion.
I just ate some of this on a veggie burger. It was like 50% cabbage, 50% everything else

Thanks! That would be an option, but we don't have any Apple devices, so I'm guessing it would be tough to provision it, plus not sure we could use find my iPhone. Would be happy to be wrong here, tho!
