It’s because when it’s on you’re using their DNS servers, right now Google’s IP is cached so it still resolves. Provably if you restarted the device it would stop loading again.

Is it an ad blocker or an actual VPN?

Turn off your vpn

I tried that one, it didn’t work. Like at all.

🥳

Unless it’s YouTube Music, is that still broken?

It was stupid from day one. 🤷

Who’s “we”.

I used Hail to freeze AA and just don’t use it. It’s broken garbage anyway.

Just make a directory somewhere and point the command at it instead of a mount point, it should work.

e: double check you’re not including your own personal data, I don’t do flatpaks so I’m unclear on whether that’ll be a thing.

Yeah. Which there’s no direct link to.

I don’t like flatpak and there’s no easy download of the actual thing. If you’ve got a copy or a direct link to one it might be interesting.

Why not download it and look

Your first mistake was opening reddit at all.

Without reading it I’m betting the list doesn’t include

• SD card
• Headphone jack
• Unlocked bootloader
• Replaceable battery
• Reduced stock bloat
• A charger

Some pro-bundling arguments look nice but break down under critical examination.

Oh how interesting, I’m sure this will be followed up by a well thought out argument against it.

In reality, manufacturers shouldn’t provide free chargers with new phones. Consumer outcry won’t change the reality or manufacturers’ minds. Four years of hearing these faulty arguments proves it.

Fuckin nope, sure didn’t!

This guy is a moron.

Both.

I’ll stick with the GrapheneOS PDF viewer.

It would work fine. Could use a cover.

They’ve been eliminating sdcard and headphone so you’re asking a lot now. It’s why I’m using a near 5 year old phone with no plans to “upgrade”.

Galaxy A71 5G if you’re interested. It’s not a small phone but it’s not Galaxy Note big, and it’s got android 13. The only downside is it’s lacking a few newer 5G channels in the radio.

I did the same thing.

Also the silicon expands as it’s charged considerably more because it can hold a lot more. Many people don’t realize charging isn’t just holding electricity in a bucket, it’s a physical change to the battery.

Maybe battery cell count is a factor.

What kind of photos would cause such a panic reaction?

… actually never mind, I don’t think I want to know.

I wonder if there’s any market for an inline breaker to add protection to badly designed computers.

Most devices don’t run the latest Android version so both of those things won’t even matter to most people.

It also requires 1 pint of the blood of your firstborn.

Don’t care. I used Chrome for a long time, moving away from it now because of the poor design decisions lately. At this point even if Google reverted the changes and put out a press release that said “we fucked up and won’t ever do it again” I wouldn’t believe it or trust them. The headline may as well be “Baby eating monster now eats 3% fewer babies”.

What’s the model number?

e: if this is your model then you’re in luck, if yours is not then don’t use those files, close enough isn’t a thing with this.

No.

Page scrolling works fine and dark mode doesn’t make sense…

GrapheneOS has an actively maintained PDF viewer app though.

Have you considered Google Assistant or Bixby so she can do things like that by voice command?

Does your mom have both hands and if so do they reasonably function?

15 minute??

I don’t have that phone, but the clips are supposed to be universal. In theory any would work.

That works but only so far. Better optics will always yield a better image.
