When you consider the time as a number line, years are not points at integers (which would in some way warrant a year 0), but rather periods between them. Year 1 is the period between 0 and 1, and before that was -1 to 0, or year -1. There is no year 0, because there isn't anything between 0 and 0

I feel like celebrating on February 28th when it's not a leap year makes the most sense. If someone was born on February 29, then their birthday is the day before March 1.

Greenwashing, can't believe this even is a question

I've been using gboard for a very long time and I use it in four total languages. English is my second language, and my second keyboard setting, one which I use very rarely because I usually type in English using my native Polish setting (with multilanguage input enabled).

Since last week gboard has started automatically switching to English input between apps. This happens for all apps and seemingly on random. I would use the PL+EN keyboard in Sync, then switch to Signal and it would be English (making me unable to type in Polish). I then change it manually to PL+EN, go to Messenger and it would be English again.

Any thoughts? This is especially weird because I have yet another two language settings which it never goes to, so it's not like it cycles through, but rather switches precisely to English.

And before anyone says there are alternative keyboards: yes, there are, but none of them allows swipe typing, mixed multilanguage input and Chinese zhuyin at the same time :/

It is not, there are actual colour categories at the top of the page which allow you to filter by thumbnails. This is what the Red page looks like for me:

My previous game system was a Wii U which I homebrewed. Also had a Wii many years ago. I'm considering a Switch to play TOTK (completed botw on Wii U) and Just Dance for my girlfriend. What should I take into account when picking a system?

I'm kind of lost in all the variants and shit. Is OLED the only current model? Do they vary in performance or merely the screen type? Are second-hand devices which come with digital games locked to the original user account? Is it risky to buy second-hand? Can game cartridges be moved between systems and sold freely? Is the joystick drift still a thing? Is homebrewing a thing? Do cartridges carry save files like in NDS? Are digital releases generally cheaper than physical? Does it accept any usb type c charger? Does it work with usb type c hubs with hdmi output or does it require the docking station? Is online play (in mario kart for example) still free to access like it was on Wii and Wii U or did they move to subscription system?

it's a common argument against homeschooling that kids who have no exposure to peers in a school setting end up with poor social skills. unless this post is satire, which I am like 99% sure it must be, this seems to be a case of that

edit: I'm in no way saying it's the strongest or the most important argument against homeschooling

[-] nudnyekscentryk@szmer.info 117 points 6 months ago

This is satire, right? I want to believe homeschooled kids are not as bad as they are often pictured

I recently started using Kodi for my linux distro collection, but some videos look terrible in comparison to when played in VLC. See attached picture with screengrabs from VLC and Kodi of the same frame in an MKV 1080p h.265 file. What could be the issue? I didn't change any video settings in either

I'm considering updating from a 128GB to 512GB card. Normally, the procedure would to be create a disk image and restore it to the new card. I'm a bit skeptical of this process being this straightforward; in fact, I think this will simply break stuff for many apps.

I have several of my apps point to a folder on the card for data storage or backup, and the path includes what I believe is the serial number of the card -- it's an 8 character code of mostly digits and two upper score letters. This, I believe, will not carry over to the new card, therefore probably forcing me to format it and making me unable to access existing data. I can work with doing to connections all over, because it's 10 apps at most that do automatic backups on the card, but I have previously had problems with Android devices forcing card formatting despite the correct file system. The thing I'm mostly scared about is YouTube Music encrypted library

Does anyone here have experience doing so?

this is called flexitarianism and is totally valid in terms of not wasting food and cohabitating in society. unfortunately some vegetarians would bully a person like you since ideological purity is more important than not wasting food to them

It's actually compact, cheap, has oled, in-screen fingerprint reader, stock Android, NFC, Snapdragon SOC, supports GSI and has unlockable bootloader. Seems like a perfect phone (well except nonexpandable storage), so what's the catch?

It's either that or blasting rope to Luigi hentai is not a sin

My device is 2 years old, Accubattery claims 70% battery health, but I still get 6h+ SOT on a single charge since recently updating to Android 13 (SparkOS). Device is Redmi Note 10 Pro.

Looking for an app to list and export as a single text file all my installed apps -- names and package names; including Play Store apps, F-droid apps and those which origin in an apk file. I found List My Apps by Onyxbits, but can't install it unfortunately. Any alternative? preferably foss

I'm considering flashing A13 on my phone, PixelOS in particular, but I want to make sure custom launchers (Lawnchair) are able to fully use gestures, including animations without flashing Magisk and installing the Quickswitch module.

Preferably FOSS and supporting the side swipe up gesture. I know of Sesame, but it's been discontinued and doesn't support the gesture. Firefox on the other hand does support the gesture, but only does online search.

I'm with boomers on this. It's even worse if it redirects you to their FB page
