You are not wrong, but for example I had an old phone which could not support that much load, so I had to disable a lot of filters and flag "ignore generic cosmetic filters" to be able to surf the web without ads at least.

I didn't run into any issue by enabling all (excluding language specific).

Did you run into any? Or are you talking about being too much load?

On online multiplayer fps games, when someone is not that good is labeled as bot, to say he's as bad as a bot who can't play really well compared to a human player.

When you win a match without hassle at all, it's like the entire lobby was full of bots instead of real players.

I've enabled every filter.
If you find your experience a bit slow and clunky, disable cosmetic filters and keep only essential filters.

On Linux files and folders have permissions info for owner, group and everyone else. So you can set individual permissions for these.

By setting the owner to root, if you want to make your user able to read/write that folder, you must either give permissions to everyone to read/write OR assign a group to the folder, give the group permissions to read/write and add your user to that group.

If you instead set your user as the owner of the folder, you can make only your user able to read/write without other fuss.

If you are a newbie, stick to gui file manager. Can you please tell me what file manager are you using? Most of the time you can change permissions thru right click > propriety > permissions.

If you want a gui for android take a look at Seal, for Linux Parabolic.

/mnt/something has root as Owner. So When I try to move something to Trash, it's not allowing me to do

You have to change permissions or owner of that folder (not /mnt itself but the subfolder "something").
If I'm not wrong changing permissions is enough to use gui "move to trash", you can use chmod thru cli (man chmod) o your gui file manager with root privileges.

If you want only your user be able to read/write to that disk, then change the owner using chown thru cli (man chown) or again your gui file manager.

The Linux FHS does not address this, so it's up to you where to mount it. There is no correct choice, but if you want to follow standards just mount it inside /mnt which is the nearest use-case (/media could be automatically used by your DE, so avoid it). Otherwise you can just create a custom folder in root like someone else suggested.

Take a look at FHS spec.

Edit:
On arch forum someone suggests /mnt/data

Android Intent Filter Verification Service

I've seen on TrackerControl this system app (on my grapheneOS) contacting Amazon (amazon.com) and Google (android.clients.google.com, m.youtube.com, play.google.com and www.youtube.com).

What does this app do? I've disabled internet access for the time being.

As you can see in the screenshot, inside the Photo Picker in the Albums view only "Screenshots" is shown while in Photos view all the pictures are available in chronological order.

By looking it up, I found people complaining the same issue and one suggesting adding them with Google Photos (which I don't have and I don't want to install).

Just wanted to know if someone else here got the same issue or if there is a workaround/fix for this.
(I'm on GrapheneOS)

Thanks

I've introduced two of my friends (not into tech) to Lemmy. Since they're not into tech this is their first web forum.

I've explained the federation thru the usual email metaphore and that's ok, but to lookup for communities is not quite there on client side.

Let me explain.
He wanted to see all the communities on an instance because that instance is in his native language but he's registered on another instance. So to see all those communities you must go on instance.domain/communities, copy the name of the community you are interessed in and paste it inside the app/web client to look it up.

And to see all the communities all over the fediverse you must use lemmyverse.net which is a cool site, but still you got to copy paste back and forth to the app.

This could be implementend inside app itself by listing all communities and add ability to filter by things like instance.

Obviously open to discussion about the issue itself and how that could be improved.

Feel free to tag apps/clients devs to ear their opinion too.

A big biometric security company in the UK, Facewatch, is in hot water after their facial recognition system caused a major snafu - the system wrongly identified a 19-year-old girl as a shoplifter.

I would like to know if there is something like iPhone "True Tone" or Samsung "Adaptive Color Tone" in AOSP or if there are alternatives to install.

What to do, if you need to visualize a large network graph but all tools you try can only draw a hairball or eat all your RAM and hang…

Just wanted to share this article that I came across (tho it's from 2019).

Is it even possible on android? Is there a FOSS dialer to optionally encrypt some phone calls (non voip) using a pre-shared key with other party?

Does every PeerTube instance store all other instances' content metadata (title, description, comments)? Would federating virtually with YouTube (through a YouTube frontend like Piped) give a too high ammount of data to store on other instances?
