It would be like saying that if 99% of Linux users used RedHat.

AOSP is open source sure, but realistically basically everyone is using a closed source version that the OEM has messed with.

My app does embed your image, but opening in external or just looking at the host thingy on the Lemmy website shows that it is uploaded to Imgur. May be something Memmy does automatically?

Kinda off-topic but, why did people start calling ram speed MT/s instead of MHz? I started noticing it in LTT videos a while ago but never really figured out why they changed it.

Wait isn't imperial the one with asinine fractions?

Like wtf is a 64th of an inch? Or a thousandth (is that how you spell that?)

This isn't true, at least in the Netherlands. The Euro is legal tender of course, but stores aren't required to accept it, provided they make this clear to customers.

Which is why (iirc) DuckDuckGo uses bing as the actual search engine.

Edit: misread your comment, thought it said bing (as in the search) is honestly really good

Which imo it is, once you strip out all the other bullshit like DuckDuckGo does

You don't need to root the stock ROM to install a custom one, you just need an unlocked bootloader

Your answer is much shorter and to the point, but for the people that understand things better with visuals, here's a Veritasium video about this exact thing

Huh, I always thought su stands for super user, but apparently it actually stands for substitute user (according to the manpage)

Or, even worse, A start job is running for ... (10s / no limit)

Actually seems like in this case the global "allow unknown sources" setting is still disabled on your phone, not the app's permission. But you will see this dialogue if the app you're installing from doesn't have permission as well.

That's something else. That just means that whatever app you used to open and install the apk doesn't have the permission to do so yet.
