@Earl disabled apps do not eat power and data, also do not spy on you. #evilGoogle with every android version takes a piece of freedom from users.
I just have a hope my phone will last till linux phones 😕 -
#evilGoogle do not let me to completely remove annoying "do not disturb". Every time phone sets sound level to 0 it turns on! Also why they removed separate sound levels for calls and notifications? Are they google?!
Last good #android was gingerbread. -
I hate #evilGoogle and #android
Connected old Garmin nuvi trough usb otg and that evil device put folders in all disks.
It's offensive!Android phone can be usefull, but devs sabotaging it.

Google being evil, again.

Šiandien mačiau pirmą #evilGoogle gemini auką. Bendradarbiui telefonas nustojo skambinti ir nebegalėjo perkrauti telefono - suknistas suknisto gūglio asistentas pasiėmė sau išjungimo mygtuką.
Ne, išinstaliuoti to gemini viruso neleido.
Mygtuką atkovojom per nustatymus.Priminimas sau: jei iki sekančio tlf pirkimo dar nebus linux - max 12 androidas, tas dar be gemini kenkėjo.

@rq if #evilGoogle was a bit nicer to keybiard developpers - we can see a lot of keyboards on gplay. As that was a thing before: many launchers, many keyboards. Now they all is gone.
Just ask too much from a dev and one day he will stop.
I blame only google 🤪
-
@rq one of the worst things commited by #evilGoogle is making old keyboards obsolete. They push to use their spyware.

#evilGoogle denied call recording on android, so you cannot have a proof against bussinnes or gov. They say "call is recorded" but never give to you recording if it will favor your position.
Google is against you.

Arggh! Google Play Store have started spamming notifications to phones 🤬 They've lumped payment notifications with advertisment notifications so you cant turn them off 🤬
No Google, I don't want ad notifications, I dont want subscription apps or micro transaction apps and I dont want PC games!!!

Right.I don't think of YouTube as my "go to" source of all 'news', authoritative or not. E.g., Twitter!
So, "More authoritative sources", if the source isn't actual facts is going to be the marketing slogan of #evilgoogle (ha!) to be the one-stop news stop. Makes sense, and it seems to be making them dollars, between all the 'alternative' cable & cable-ish ...
So More authoritative?
Compared to what?Google?Birds of a feather, caveat emptor... etc. Fascinating to me.

Just got a "Standard" account on the Kagi search engine, $5/month, installed the firefox extension, tried a couple searches, enjoyed.
We'll see. May they not devolve like so many others. Stay good, Kagi!

Spent a lot of time rescuing 20 yrs of data & photos this week.
Much of my 2010s photography was trustingly shared with #EvilGoogle #GPlus (for 8 years) and then wiped out - along with myriad communities, groups, collections - April 2, 2019.
Happily I 'mirrored' some of my most popular collections on my own site. Here's a favorite: Cuba.
Click/tap on photos &/or text links for a (free, un-tracked) self-tour around Havana, Cienfuegos, and Hemingway's home.

#life #wcphilosophy #braindump #lawyers #boringstory
coincidentally, i couldn't think of better tags for this post. basically the same category as the previous announcement! 🤣
ever since my U$1k issue with #evilgoogle, when they stole it from to force me using #thefuckingpixel3, i started to think about going to court for the first time in my life, after some 38 years in.
but i didn't. because, as it turns out, i do not live in america, so i have virtually zero rights. and that makes everything around going to court for #thefuckingpixel3 (search the web for cregox pixel3 google should bring you an updated link) nearly impossible.
last november i got denied to enter the usa, to visit my family, for the last time. spent well over U$3k (or nearly 30% of my yearly income) trying for over 7 times. on november, #deniedboarding for the second time! it almost feels like the agents who did it, did it with pleasure. almost.
anyway, i told this story too many times already. i will continue to try and make it good, but today i came here to write about one of my #awesomeideas! whenever i share those with people, they become speechless in awe! 🤣
yesterday i spoke with a local lawyer in person. he had a non smoking sign. at some point, he asked me if he could smoke... afterwards, he removed the small sign from the wall with his nails!! or at least started to try. 😳
more importantly, i talked extensively with him about the whole #deniedboarding story. and he offered me help for €60 (apparently a big discount on the lawyers world), send the airline company a letter so they will pay me back the tickets they keep promising they will but never do. he thinks it's 50/50 chance they will comply and, if they don't, he have no idea how much it will cost us to follow through, but probably not much except a lot of work.
he also thinks going for more money in portugal will never bring good results, as it will cost more than the money we can take.
i disagree, but i don't know shit practice about it. i do know that my logic works better in theory, and that the law should be the best academia science we have around logic. skepticism surely wins, but it does not constitute science or academia on its own. in fact, academia goes very far from logic, in general. especially medicine.
in any case, i need to wait more and see if they do now, on my last direct attempt to a friendly settlement with them. i promised i won't get in touch again outside the court. and i asked for nearly 50% money, 300eur. they promised to pay something.
now the idea...
i offer to pay the lawyer 102 EUR (how much it would cost me to start the process myself). if we win, that's it. process over.
if they don't pay, we go to court and he doesn't charge me for anything except court costs. then, if we win, he just pay me back the 102 and keep everything else. if we lose, we lose.
i want to make this right. but i have no idea if i can follow through because of how much #energeia this will take. i only know that i can't pay the whole bill upfront with my income today. and for the rest of energy needed, well, let's just say i might get away from europe (hopefully to an island like palau or new zealand) in the next 10 years. although i think the chances of that happening rose from 50/50 ever since i discovered #tamera back in 2019. probably less than 30% chances, in fact. and i only keep it bigger than 5% thanks to the #peaceindex + my visit to nz back in 2011 or so.
there. #selfnote made. helps to think better. i might try to get back to sleep now. 😴
#publiclife #transparency -
testing husky without live notifications now, to try and see if it helps with my battery issues…
even though i know #evilgoogle frequently tinkers that view.

@schrofi @RachaelAva1024 after a few days of real usage, i found a query that worked only in duck 🦆
"kofi cregox write ahoxus".
oddly, serx brings 0 results.
but anyone will find it very easy to quickly spot the missing feature there.
more importantly, somehow i went a few days without missing such feature! 🤔
the link i wanted to find because i was to lazy to write it, by the way, i couldn't find even in #evilgoogle but we can see it below:
