Curious Canid

I hadn’t noticed, until this post, that there were options for the icon. Mine is now set to O.G., but I will probably switch back-and-forth between that and Progress Pride.

I’ve just been looking for something to replace One Note. The timing of this announcement worked out really well for me. :-)

Thanks!

I’m glad you found them! Different manufacturers put them in different places.

The most common place under Android is in a directory named DCIM/Camera/ on the local storage.

Huge Digital Clock Pro is the app I mentioned. Just bear in mind that it only does a small part of what you’re looking for.

I’d be interested in that too. I have an app that adjusts between day and night illumination levels based on the actual sunrise and sunset, but it just toggles between high and low.

If an app still works, it doesn’t matter whether or not it is being maintained.

I recently switched to FairEmail. It’s a really nice app and works much better than anything else I’ve tried. And it would be a shame if it were abandoned.

On the other hand, I have published a few things to Google Play myself. Google has made constant effort necessary to keep up with their policies. It wasn’t worth the trouble for someone like me who just casually released things I built for my own use. I can’t blame anyone else for deciding to step away from it either.

It is appalling that he also has to deal with abuse and threats for performing a public service.

This is why we can’t have nice things. {sigh}

Thanks for the response! I’ll have to try it out.

Does MiXplorer support samba and sftp access to remote sites? It looks like a great file manager.

I don’t know if this will help, but I’ve been using Plex to manage my music and other audio for more than a decade. It pulls in metadata from online sources and allows me to search or apply filters. That is a lot more versatile than anything I could do directly with the files.

If you aren’t interested in running your own server, look at some of the more sophisticated player apps. Many of them can provide similar metadata features. Then you wouldn’t have to worry about how the files are physically organized.

I use option #1. Each instance of KeePass maintains a local file, but updates them automatically whenever it opens or closes. I also back up the file to my personal server automatically, so I have a copy even if the cloud service fails for some reason.

This setup has been serving me well for a long time.

That sounds promising. I’m still wearing a five-year-old Fossil because nothing since has seemed like enough of an improvement to justify the cost.

I have a small UPS to keep my fiber and router working for a while and I have a larger UPS for my server. Even the larger UPS will only keep the server going for maybe half-an-hour, but most outages here are short. For me, the most important benefit is that my UPS will tell my server to shutdown when it begins to get short of power. Graceful shutdowns remove the risk of corruption and data loss.

I understand the cynicism, but it’s worth looking at the details. This is not the most powerful phone on the market, but it looks very good. The price is reasonable. It is easier and less expensive to repair than anything else on the market and it comes with a much longer warranty. They appear to be serious about both minimizing their environmental impact and being fair to the workers all the way down their supply chain. Those are all significant achievements.

I don’t need a new phone right now, but I’m still tempted, just to encourage the effort. We tend to complain about all corporations being basically evil. We should do everything we can to support the ones that really aren’t.

If you need to add more than one drive you should look at external enclosures. There are 4-drive models just over $100 and 8-drive models just over $200. You connect them with eSata, USB 3, or USB C, depending on the enclosure.

GIMP and LibreOffice are what I’ve been using.

That seems entirely appropriate. 😀

Big Trouble in Little China is one of my two favorite movies.

Is that David Lo Pan?

I don’t think that is an actual limitation. I live in the midwest and it works fine here. I have also used it while traveling in Texas and California without any problems.

If it makes any difference, I do also have the eRadar app, but the widget you see is part of eWeather.
