If you have a recent phone, websites and PWAs are about as fast as native apps. I'm using a 2014 flagship Sony Xperia Z that came out with Android 4.4 and can barely run Android 13 — it will overheat and sytem UI (thankfully not apps) will restart if rendering stuff for too long. (The difference is staggering: basic old apps like Phyphox and static websites run indefinitely. Modern apps or JS-enabled pages like Voyager or 480p30 video for 10 minutes. Post-modern bloated crap or 720p30 video, 4 minutes. Imgur, new Reddit and 1080p video turn the phone into a hand warmer immediately and the framerate goes from 15 to <1 in 10 seconds, followed by a slew of ANRs and the battery percentage going down every 20^th^ frame rendered. Should I have applied more heatsink compound after replacing the battery? Yes but I'd argue no app with a simple purpose and basic GUI should require 5 W to the CPU while running at half rate.)

This does not affect people without Google Play Services so why complain? We need fewer reasons for people to buy Apple products so that devs are more inclined to build good native Android apps.

This is why I see it as a mild positive for us. For normal users, it's another step away from privacy and security towards convenience that they will accept. Yes, some will see this on-by-default feature and think "no privacy is possible anymore" but that's best solved by GrapheneOS etc. becoming more visible.

Yup

That's what happens when people stumble across that website called GitHub, get hooked and now have unrealistic expectations for the real git.

"I just installed Git for Windows. Where is the drag-to-upload box?"

— A statement dreamt up by the utterly deranged

Real git involves a lot of sweat, requires you to clean up any mess you make, and communicate with any partners about their preferred techniques instead of rawdogging it and waiting for issues. The pushing and pulling will come naturally but you need to know how and when to release, and be clear about how you wish to commit. Nightly is an option but good luck getting everyone on board. People might judge you for using the word "master" but it should be alright in private.

Still avoids Scunthorpe. There is no good reason to visit Scunthorpe.

Is it the lighting or did you also get 10 years younger?

My CPU lasted longer than the sticker (it's a laptop)

This happens so often I instinctively press ⌫, C, Z when I see this specific list.

"What do you mean you can't play games with it, son? When I had this in high school, I got invited to every LAN party and got free drinks."

What year?

Scrolling through 200 items is easier on a phone than a desktop without PgUp/PgDn.

Or (A)llemagne, (N)iemcy, (T)yskland, (S)aksa, (V)asija (you won't encounter the last two unless you use a website in Finnish or Estonian, however the first three are used in numerous countries including Germany's neighbors).
The lists are occasionally auto-translated, sometimes I see "🇹🇷 Truthahn".
