Finally!

@finishingDutch @nogooduser lol, you try to find logic. I’m Greek. This government almost constantly tries (and unfortunately manages…) to push measures using some very twisted logic. The main idea behind all these is that they are gonna profit from it. Also by keeping the people busy with work it’s gonna make it less likely to act against the government or even socialize with other people, thus worsening any unity among the people. And they mask it as a good measure.

It’s the same people who tried to convince us that bringing private universities will be good, again using their illogical logic. (They pushed this during the winter exams so that students wouldn’t rise against, but fortunately the gov’s actions were met with huge resistance. Still, even after all this they passed the law…)

This political party is trying very hard to dismantle Greece and take us years back years. And it’s their second term in a row… It’s their 5th year in power in a row and we have at least ~3 more years…

Now it’s fire season, you can watch us as Greece will soon be burning literary and the gov will ~only try to evaccuate areas and blame it to the people instead of being proactive against wildfires (or combating them with proper means).🥲

Have you tried apatch as an alternative to magisk?

It ~combines rhe advantages of magisk and kernelsu

BlastboomStrice, 4 days ago

I think it may be based on ksu, but also uses superkeys with passwords or something. I don’t know much about its security, you may want to check the issues tab on github or generally the project itself.

I think the new “safetynet” is “Play integrity”. I think you need playstore installed and activated to pass the test though.

At least, it seems like many apps are ok with passing only safetynet though, so probably not a big issue yet.

Oh oke oke. I had issues with magisk a few months before I switch. I think there were incompatibility issues between magisk and lsposed manager, so I did a full reset, I upgraded the rom (from a beta version from November 2021 of the rom xiaomi.eu miui 12.6/android 11, I went to xiaomi.eu hyperOS/android13) and installed apatch so that I dont have incompatibikity issues (plus, it hides root much better).

BlastboomStrice, 3 days ago

Those “root checks” are a joke. ~Nobody raises a brow if you are an admin user with root privilages on windows, (desktop) linux or macos. But it’s such a huuuge deal when you manage to actually own and use your own mobile device the way you want by breaking free from what they impose on you, ugh…

Any app that doesnt work when you have root access ~shouldn’t be used at first place…

Lsposed is a magisk/ksu module that has its own modules too. Like a manager insude a manager giving you even more options.

I would like to help you with various stuff and customizations but I just don’t have enough time to explain them all.😅

I’m just gonna list stuff you may find useful:

Apatch (root and magisk/kernel modules manager)

Mrepo (magisk modules manager)

Shizuku

Color blender (to tweak metarial you colors)

Droidify (fdroid alternative)

Aurora store (play store alterantive)

Total commander (closed source root file manager)

Canta (used to uninstall system apps, I just use it to see the descriptions of various apps and disable them)

Florisboard beta (I have made a very good copy of gboard with that, I can send you the files if you want)

Smartpack manager (info about the phone and more)

Appmanager (various detailed info about apps)

Hidden settings (settings your rom may not show, closed source)

Island (for dual apps)

Neobackup (root backups, has issues with work profile)

Databackup (root backups, I use it to backup work profile apps)

Sai (installer)

Roundsync (uses rsync or rclone I think)

PrimitiveFTP (to send/recieve files with ftp connections)

DroidFS (to encrypt files)

DiskUsage (to visalise storage usage)

Db viewer (to view databases of apps, closed source)

Termux (temrinal for android, too advanced for me)

UsageDirect (logs app usage)

Motionamate (logs steps)

Neutrinote ce (notes)

Fossify apps (gallery, sms, calendar etc.)

Librera (pdf, epub etc viewer)

Moneywallet (expense/income tracker)

Magisk modules:

• Adb and fastboot for android ndk
• Advanced charging controller
• Busybox for android ndk
• Lsposed-mod (maintained version of lsposed manager, after the original went archived)
• Zygisk mod

Lsposed modules/apps:

• Lucky patcher (hacking apps if you want to)
• Free notificiations to manage notifications
• Matrix rain (fancy effect with matrix background in notification shade)
• messengerEX (to disable adds in messenger app, in case you use it)

And many many more stuff

I was setting up my phone for about two weeks some months ago (the was a bug with xiaomi and work profile)😅

Insular (the degoogled open source version of Island) has a page comparing Island, Shelter and Insular

secure-system.gitlab.io/Insular/faq.html

I don’t know if its updated, but you can pick the ones that fits your needs.

I picked Island because I thought I may have issues with my notifications if I had chosen Insular. (Plus, there was this bug I was talking about and thought that it would fix it. Installing Island wasnt the solution, but I had already spent a lot of time/days setting up my phone multiple times and didnt want to try it again, with the possibility of problematic notifications.)

Very unrelated, but I noticed you have a downvote, visible. Is this possible on this instance? Has something changed or is it a bug? Other posts/comments dont seem to have downvotes, but here I can see that the post and some comments have a single downvote. Do you have any clue? I think only your comments and the post have a downvote, could it be the person you talked to somehow managed to get their downvotes to show?

BlastboomStrice, 6 days ago

Oh its oke (the instance decides if the downvotes are visible and since this post is on an instance that doesnt show downvotes separately I found it weird that I saw a visible single downvote both on the post and your comments.

35 thousand?

Hah, I have about 300 thousand🙂

(~8years of phone use)

BlastboomStrice, 9 days ago

HAHAHAHA trueee

It’s like a bad and inefficient phone diary filled with random memories that drown the important ones in the expanding ocean of screenshots I have created

BlastboomStrice, 27 days ago

Just wanna jump in here and recommend Quodlibet. It handles tags very well.

Lol, who wants these anyways. One more reason not to use google play services. (Though I have google play services on this phone.)

Automatic AI-powered screen lock for when your phone is snatched.

Theft Detection Lock is a powerful new feature that uses Google AI to sense if someone snatches your phone from your hand and tries to run, bike or drive away. If a common motion associated with theft is detected, your phone screen quickly locks – which helps keep thieves from easily accessing your data.

One good thing you could try is use this app:

Find My Device

video editing: davinci

Btw, there’s olive editor 0.2. It’s kinda unstable, but much better interface than davinci. Plus, it’s open source.

BlastboomStrice, 1 month ago

Well, can’t argue much with that. It’s a shame it crashes often… I might check kdenlive some time though.

BlastboomStrice, 2 months ago

My laptop has! (I ~don’t use a desktop)

BlastboomStrice, 2 months ago

Because that’s what matters the most…

/s

BlastboomStrice, 2 months ago

I think you said it rather well. I was formulating 2 mid-long paragraphs in my head as an answer, but I didnt want to spend that much time actually writing them. Tnx for saving me some time!

BlastboomStrice, 2 months ago

What about making the extention so that it plays audiofiles of your choice? (Probably not the best place to suggest this, but anyways.)

BlastboomStrice, 2 months ago

There: mander.xyz/post/11076441

There was a post recently about people’s favourite open source games and it’s been a nice repository of games for me :)

BlastboomStrice, 2 months ago

Haven’t tried Alovoa, but think of it differently; if someone is on Alovoa, they maybe are more similar-minded to you, because they too probably like open source stuff.

BlastboomStrice, 2 months ago

Ah, rip, that may be an issue😆

Wasnt aware of that meme template, now gotta find a way to use it for my friend :)

BlastboomStrice, 3 months ago

I remember reading some years ago on reddit that leaving the lid open (flushing or not) probably contaminates the air.

So now I open the lid and the seat and when Im done I close both of them, ~no matter with who else I’m in the house.

I dont know if knowyourmeme is the appropriate source for this, but there you are

knowyourmeme.com/memes/…/ikea-blahaj-shark

On Tumblr, BLÅHAJ gained an association with the LGBTQ+ and transgender community in particular, which is reflected in multiple memes posted on both Tumblr and Reddit in the late 2010s (examples shown below, left and right). For example, on September 6th, 2021, Twitter user @TheWerelizard tweeted an official advertisement by IKEA in which BLÅHAJ was used to express support for LGBTQ+.

Edit: wow, all that time I read it as “Blajah” instead of “Blahaj”…

I think it may have to do with this (I think it was enforced last week):

me.pcmag.com/…/asking-chatgpt-to-repeat-words-for…

BlastboomStrice, 6 months ago

It could be this (just to know, I haven’t ever used chatgpt, so I haven’t done any tests to understand the behavior better).
