The You Game!

[Reese Riverson]

< has a feeling Serza is no happy

[Ray502]

< is happy right now.

[PluMGMK]

< has seen more detail from Plum now, and yikes. Aspartame is really nasty stuff.

< doesn't think it means anything; you'll find plenty of harmless molecules which can be synthesized from lethal chemicals.

< agrees, but < is pretty sure that in this case the methanol is re-liberated in the body, as a metabolite.

<'s decided to try out LineageOS for <'s old Moto G, <'s just unlocked its bootloader. Now to see if < can install a custom recovery, then flash the LineageOS ROM.

<'s only advice on that is to make NANDroid backups and make them frequently. <'s phone just commited sudoku today again in a relatively short time since the last full reinstall. Custom OSes are definitely the way forward for <, but they're not completely free of issues.

Indeed! < recently had LineageOS lose the ability to function just because < used <'s car interface to hang up a phone call via Bluetooth. Orders of magnitude worse than anything < ever heard of from Windows!!! < had made a backup that morning so < was fine.

In fairness, it's done by third parties who have to go off what the manufacturers provide. Either ways, <'s done the backup now, so all is good.

< still finds it odd that an entire OS could be brought to its knees by hanging up on a phone call.
Come to think of it, it might have been just some lock-file that the phone app failed to delete, which < could have sorted using ADB. Maybe.

Hmm, do Android phones allow for stuff like dumps when they crash? < guesses it probably doesn't by default for memory saving purposes, but can such a feature be added?

[Reese Riverson]

< wonders how Hunch's doing right now.

< is sure it's possible, since Android is basically Linux. And "adb logcat" could be a good place to start for diagnostics if the OS is in a working state at all.

[Serza5]

< is happy to see Serza post.

< sure is posting

[Master]

< guesses you'd have to do that via USB debugging though, right?

[Reese Riverson]

< would like to upgrade some of the office light fixtures to LED.

[Fifo]

< thinks the best thing McDonalds has going for them are their fries.

Yuck, so soggy!

<'s facial hair has already grown back.

<’s almost 18 and < still doesn’t have facial hair.

< doesn't have any more sweet tea left.

Worry not, for < is making some for ya.

So < was told rather fast that < isn't getting that job < went to interview for yesterday

< wonders what feedback you got.

All < got told in terms of feedback is that there was simply other cadidates with more skills they are looking for (which < gets since < made the mistake of saying < wasn't too good at using github X( )

poor ya < hopes it gets resolved soon

Watch out, you’re starting a quote pyramid!

[Reese Riverson]

< says that McDonalds fries are not usually soggy when done right.

[PluMGMK]

< guesses you'd have to do that via USB debugging though, right?

Yeah. Although it's possible to use a Terminal Emulator app and use "logcat", or install a logcat app for just viewing logs. < guesses that's probably more reliable in some circumstances.

[Reese Riverson]

< hasn't rooted <'s HTC One M9... bloody Verizon and their dirty tactics though...

[Fifo]

< says that McDonalds fries are not usually soggy when done right.

< would still rather eat home-cooked (is that a word?) fries, that way < can control the crispness and seasoning.

[Reese Riverson]

< does believe that's the word, yes.

< sees. < won't go down that route, as that's beyond <'s capabilities and not something which < could make much of a contribution to.

[Reese Riverson]

< wonders if Master's afraid of bricking his phone.

[PluMGMK]

< has a bunch of bricks at home!
< thinks people other than < (and Carrot) should be trying to answer those TTQ bonus questions.

[Master]

< wonders if Master's afraid of bricking his phone.

<'s not been messing with <'s current daily driver phone, this is <'s old phone. < isn't too worried about bricking it, as there's a lot of documentation about how to do things. But < isn't really doing much other than getting it onto a flavour of Android which is more regularly updated.

[Reese Riverson]

< has had a history of only three smart phones in <'s life time, and one flip phone.
