Also, this feels like blogspam with a short summary and a link to the actual source. Original Verge article here.

That’s an interesting example. Here in my city there was a case of a transport officer crashing his car into someone. He smelled of alcohol and was slurring and it was in the news cycle with great outrage and irony.

A few days later news broke that he had died of diabetes-related complications. Apparently the smell was not alcohol, it was ketones from him being hyperglycemic.

Going back to your “standards” statement, for an individual it would make sense not to get into a car this person drives. At the same time it makes sense for the court not to convict him until he is proven guilty. Both standards have their place and rightfully so.

Appreciate the pointers!

That’s the one, thanks! I better get to it before Fossil pulls the app. You need to extract a private key from the paired app correct?

Not hybrid watches but Garmin watches have a passive LCD screen that is readable under reflected light and the app is excellent, albeit proprietary.

I have a Fossil hybrid and Garmin Instinct and wear the instinct most of the time. I find the Fossil app too basic and it drains battery. I have heard about an open source app that can sync to them however.

That’s weird then. Never happened to me and I’ve used it everyday for a couple of weeks now. I wonder if the two bugs are related.

Also sometimes it just literally does nothing. Push the play button and nothing at all happens.

That’s a bug with the notification/lockscreen widget AFAICT. Pressing play on the main player window should work. This is the most serious bug I’ve found. It’s quite a promising player otherwise.

I’m happy to know that Pocketcasts is OS now, that was my player of choice before trying to jump to Antennapod.

Some banking apps are not working.

• Install Magisk
• Install Magisk Hideprops Config and Universal Safetynet Fix
• Enable zygisk and add your banking app to the exception list
• If your app still detects magisk as an app you can ask magisk to hide itself, or create a separate ‘work’ profile using Island (couldn’t figure out how to link it, it’s the app by Oasis Feng on the Play Store).

You’ll need to do reinstall magisk after every system update, doesn’t take too long.

Oh that’s what I had to do for my Mi 11x/F3 as well. Good to hear. I remember reading that Xiaomi had gone the way of Samsung and completely stopped official unlocks.

I believe the reason they do this is because some resellers were unlocking the bootloader and installing a ROM with malware and selling that off to unsuspecting customers. This delay (and needing to be registered with a phone number) makes that process both impractical and easy to detect.

Is the bootloader unlockable? I’ve been reading that Xiaomi is starting to make it difficult to unlock.

No SD card, yes 3.5mm jack (from the specs and video).

If your device is on this list and you’re technically-inclined, consider installing lineageOS.

I just use my in ear earphones, they work decently well and I’m getting them around anyway.
