Cool, no problem, stuck 6 reds down just now and will keep an eye on it and add more as and when :-)

I’ve nothing I especially want to add to this at the moment, but if anyone has a project they want sporadic help with, let me know :-)

Obligatory note on Nova being bought over a while ago by a data mining company. Apologies if you already knew that OP.

Yeah - I’m kind of amazed they’re doing it at all unless they’re being made to maybe, by the EU or whatever.

Hope you find a solution!

I wonder if there might be a workaround for that - eg those apps (like Better Open With or Open Link With) that can spot outgoing link requests and make themselves available as a default link opening option, so that the user can then specify a particular action to take or app to open.

If there was something like that that you could set as your default “search” app in the launcher, but which actually then ran an automation in, say, Macrodroid or whatever to open DDG’s site (with FF picking up as your default launcher) then that might do the job?

I’m not technical enough to know how feasible that is, but seems like possibility maybe.

Of course it’d be better if Pixel Launcher just let you specify a link and a browser!

There used to be a great subreddit for image stabilisations, always enjoyed seeing stuff from there and people would sometimes go into detail about the tools and techniques they used .

There probably still is, but there used to be too.

Was it broken? I don’t use it all that often, but anytime I do it seems fine. What was the issue?

EDIT, wait, RTFA, sorry.

for the past few months, notification history on Google Pixel devices has been partially broken.

When tapping on a previous notification, the app wouldn’t launch properly. Technically, it was still possible to access the notification, but you needed to first have the app open in the background, then tap the historical notification, and then open the app back up from recents.

It was quite a hassle.

Not who you asked, but I found this, which might be the one.: https://youtu.be/znmZeEycRwE?si=T0v3FHdJe4oFndgN

It’s an hour long and has the BBC logo at the start so it should be decent at least. Not watched it yet, but I will be :-)

Seems to be a stunning technical advance, bravo to all the engineers and scientists and everyone else who worked on it.

It’s tempting to dismiss or downplay because of the utter arseholishness of the company owner - but leaving him aside, what a fantastic achievement.

Oooh that’s very cool. Quite tempted…

Saw this story earlier but the headline said “1.7m miles” and I somehow didn’t notice the first “m”. I was somewhat perturbed.

I wouldn’t change a pixel of that. Perfect.

Technically, yes, that was all you needed to know.

But it’s still a nicely told story, and worth reading if you have a few minutes (plus the link is working now).

Same here - and then I start wondering if all the positive comments are just part of the bait. I need to be less suspicious!

Anyway, I clicked and it was worth it - but can you trust me?? ;-)

Well done little copter, you did us proud.

The final shot of that episode is absolute comedy gold.

Unfortunately, due to a terrible miscalculation in scale, the entire fleet was immediately swallowed by a small dog.

Cool, thanks. Also on a P6P so that’s interesting to know.

Ha that’s fun. Loved your attempt to wear the tablet :-)

How you liking the Fold?

Ha! 😄
