I’m in my 40s… similar to you, used to eat fast food often, and enjoyed it. I was having a horrible day a couple weeks ago, and thought “fuck it… I’m eating at McDs.” It was disgusting, not like I remembered it all.

:'( I feel ya.

Ooh that’s cool looking. Thanks! Definitely will keep an eye out for it when the time comes.

I have a OnePlus 8. I’ve had it for what feels like a while now… 3 years if I had to guess? Can’t remember honestly. But the battery life kicks ass, and it charges really quickly with the “warp” charger.

I only do a little bit of customization… I switched from Nova Prime to Kvaesitso recently and am liking it… but have never rooted or changed OS. The camera leaves a little to be desired, but that’s ok, I have a real camera for when I need to do that.

I probably won’t look for another phone until this one gets bogged down or otherwise broken, and when I do, I usually just see what my carrier has that isn’t super expensive. I generally avoid iPhones, and I prefer to stay away from Google as much as reasonably possible (I know I just installed their phone app, I know, I know) so I haven’t really considered a Pixel. But my arm could be twisted… I dunno.

I haven’t heard of Nothing!

nice, thanks. I have a OnePlus phone so the Google Phone app wasn’t installed on it by default. But I just installed it… hopefully fewer robocalls from now on.

Yes, exactly. If you live in a solid blue or red state, your vote is a drop in the bucket, so it won’t matter if you vote third party. But in swing states like Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania… in 2016, the number of votes won by Jill Stein was slightly greater than the difference between Trump/Clinton. Ouch! Was it worth it? Did it move the country left?

Yep. My parents are in their own echo chamber of Fox news and other 80-year-old racist fucks, and anything you try to say bounces off them with the basic formula you outlined. Actual external logic doesn’t matter. The wild thing is how big that echo chamber has gotten.

a good dropperful of liquid vitamin D is good for me once a week. make sure it’s enough – the typical recommended daily values (at least in the US) are pretty low.

I read it as KAMALA CHADS

lol! I jokingly thought of that song when I clicked in here. Definitely the most catchy thing around rn.

You are right. There used to be some setting… I had it hooked in via Nova Launcher and some accessibility setting, where with one gesture I could “turn it off” without requiring password, and with a power button press I could fully lock. But Android has (fairly recently) removed that option. (Also, fwiw, I’m no longer on Nova, but that’s beside the point!) Thanks for checking that for me.

Thank you for confirming this!

Good idea, but yeah, I tend to leave location off unless I’m using it for driving directions or something. I’ll keep it in mind though, thanks!

That sounds right. If I swipe down from the top, there’s my navbar, which very much feels like the phone is sitting there “on.” ok thank you! Maybe this idea was a pipedream after all, but I can get used to typing my password more often.

This makes sense. Thanks!

We’re talking about Kvaesitso, right? I see 1.29.1 from Feb 21, whether I check it on fdroid or github.

Thanks! I grabbed it on fdroid, which gets updates, right? It looked like the most recent was 2 months ago, when I installed it.

Awesome… I just installed kvaesitso after (…about 10?) years of being a paid Nova Premium user. I uninstalled Nova and so far so good. Thanks!

LOL I came in to post similar.
