@oldrawgabbit Oh, you were talking about the tablet. Damn, when it's about Android I always assume it's about a phone for some reason 😅
For tablet turning off system WebView is probably a really bad idea — a lot of stuff won't work anymore, but with everything else you should be fine, but notifications might break. If you use Tusky and Element, you can use Unified Push instead, there's an app called "ntfy", I've installed it from F-Droid, but it should also be on Play Store.
@oldrawgabbit Just disable system WebView and be done with it 😁
No, just kidding — don't do that, it might be a good idea if you use it like a normal phone, rely only on a few basic apps and use Firefox Mobile as your browser, but a lot of other apps rely on it and will just stop working — like for real, not just stop receiving notification as with Play services, they will just crash.
Unfortunatelly, even pricacy-centic apps like ProtonMail rely on it.
@Nishi Can you post it in full?
@Gina Mine would probably be living on this thing if I had one. They love it when there's movement without obvious human interaction, even when you open a CD door on the player from remote and they are sitting nearby they become all eyes: "Whoah, it's a miracle!" 😹
@dcc High humidity is the absolute worst, I remember going to Alexandria in Egypt when I was a teenager — some would probably be fine, but for me it's the worst climate imaginable — it's like breathing warm water, a living hell. I couldn't get an hour of sleep there, good that we weren't there for long 😅

@thatguyoverthere
Yeah, I don't like these things either TBH
Circulating the same air doesn't sound healthy. They probably have better air filters now, but still.
@gabrielesvelto
@thatguyoverthere No, I know it's not impossible — arabs even manage to live in the desert. But people living in the areas where such temperatures aren't uncommon are usually better equipped for this, have air conditioning in their homes and such.
In Moscow most don't, I know it would be a catastrophe here with thousands of casualties, anything above 33° is already considered dangerous. We now have something like 27° — cats are bit uncomfortable, but it's not a heatwave at all😅
@gabrielesvelto
@gabrielesvelto Wow! Is it safe to be in the streets at all? AFAIR, 40 is the temperature the denaturation of proteins starts that is why it's considered a dangerous temperature to have. And when the air's like that it's probably an emergency.
@Nishi What's that wallpaper, is the vector Cirno? 🤔
@lore Lossy compression itself was quite a miracle — I remember downloading an MP3 file off some BBS and playing it back to a friend — and it didn't take forever, he was like "Wow, you can do that now?" 😲
We were still mostly using compact cassettes at the time.
@lore I've never used WinAMP much, WinAMP in particular. My computer was probably still not performant enough to play something casually when I've been using Windows and by the time I got myself a decent rig, I've already been using linux so it was XMMS — with WinAMP skins of course 😂
@roboneko
> pipeline
Srry, not pipeline and not even pipewire — I didn't even check this one out yet, should be a bit better than the rest, I was talking about PulseAudio — another brainchild of the Great Linux Cancer mastermind 😆
@Zergling_man @tromo
@roboneko That would be easy! They did deprecate ALSA after all in favour of that pipeline bullshit, which IMO is even worse of a cancer than systemd itself. Well, output still kinda works with ALSA, but not the input — so to have mic working in Element Web, albeit with a slight lag, I have to use apulse 😩

@futzle Ha-ha-ha, looks like my instance uses a different font for emojis (Twitter Color Emoji most probably) and the date on the calendar is different 🤣
@dcc
I think I've altered it a bit myself, I was trying to add cover art to audio files, but I don't remember if I finished it, lol
Anyway, shouldn't be to hard to rebase minor shit like that.
I was worried about DB upgrade, nice to know that there is no need for that. As it's not a VM, I can't just snapshot it and rollback if things go south, checking out old git revision and restoring DB backup shouldn't be hard either, but I've never done that, who knows what it might entail😅

Just in case: DMs/PMs simply don't exist on this instance as concept — don't use them, use the other instance if you absolutely have to, or send an email to any address at m0xEE.Net or .Com or .Org, but I prefer keep most communication public.
