C++ was my second programming language after BASIC, if that still qualifies as a programming language these days.

Unexpected factorial

Techno offers decent value for money but they need to ramp on their software support part. For some cheap devices, you had be lucky to get a single major Android upgrade.

I think 30+ people died directly in India due to fake message rumors on WhatsApp last year. The rumours were basically of child kidnapping rings doing the rounds and if someone new wandered in into a secluded community, they would be suspected and in rare cases, killed. Since India saw an exceptional implosion in smartphone usage in recent years and WhatsApp is the most popular messaging platform there, it’s a travesty that it happened.

Not exactly. Nothing’s sub brand CMF has SD card support in it, so Nothing could have provided it if they really wanted. It also misses a headphone jack, but Carl Pei would rather have you sell his earpods than give a jack. I don’t think any phone in mid to high range segment except Sony retains headphone jack now, which is a pity.

Samsung used to be even worse I think. In the initial days of the smartwatch industry, I think Atleast one of their watches was for Samsung phones only, not even Android compatible fully.

Many companies reserve certain features for use only within their compatible product range (looks at Samsung for their gatekeeping of Galaxy Watch features to Samsung phones only; heck even TWS manufacturers sometimes bake a feature or two exclusively for use with their phone series only). I wonder if Oneplus offerings are completely platform agnostic or not.

Doesn’t it use adb to uninstall/disable unwanted packages? It is manually doable as well, just takes more time via the terminal.

and it’s going to get recycled correctly.

Aww, if they really put half as much effort into the Pixel Watch as they do on it’s marketing, the former would come in repairable form factor by now.

Pixel is notorious for becoming hotter than normal. That’s why Google added a vapor chamber to it’s Pro series of phones this time. Heck, despite their slow charging speeds(27W, I think), they throttle even below that during warm days.

I just tried Tubular, a NewPipe fork and it works properly.

I recognized majority of the languages on the list but couple of them I am hearing for the first time admittedly like Blade and Crystal. I am not a programmer, so I guess that might be the reason.

Native gestures as in the gesture navigation system on Android?

I have a Realme phone and it came with so much bloatware that I can’t tell. Dozens and dozens of purely unwanted apps that I had to disable almost all of them to get a decent experience.

The new one is just a web UI with options for streaming music. There were talks of the old original Winamp going open source though, which bought nostalgic memories to many. Eithercase, with so many music players on both Windows and Linux, I doubt Winamp would a niche case to fill.

It is honestly better than YouTube Premium. Watt Google should offer as part of its paid suite, an open source software does it.

Simple suite of apps used to be good until the dev sold it to some company, I think. The versions on F Droid are still clean, but on Play Store, they are riddled with ads until you pay, I think.

I have used Termux, even have it installed right now but apart from the odd cron job, I never used it for something heavy. You, sir, are basically running full fledged Linux with it.

Gone with the Wind was backward looking even for it’s time frame. It’s depiction of the South as a happy place for everybody wasn’t agreeable by many films even then. Meanwhile, Star Wars is just a science fiction film, set in a different universe with little direct connotations.

It officially supports 250 variants including many going over a decade back. If one were to include all smartphone models/variants released during the previous decade, it won’t even hit the 10 % mark.
