As a backup option, you can give Google Assistant or a Google Home the following commands: "at 10PM, sleep {lightname}" to dim, or "at 6AM, wake {lightname}" to brighten - both work over the space of a half-hour, and for some odd reason that's not customizable.

There's a completely free app (no ads, either) that prevents auto-rotate from actually happening unless you want it to. It pops up an icon when your phone wants to rotate, and it you don't tap it within the timeout (adjustable up to 3 seconds) then the icon goes away and the rotation never happens. It's highly customizable, and I just can't live without it since I found it.

I clearly see Hobbes, but I had no idea he had a twin brother...?

I tend to doubt it, but either way it's irrelevant - the signal-to-noise ratio on conspiracy theories has gotten absurdly bad, and it's hurting too many people who have nothing to do with it.

Don't know how you got there. Seems to me they meant when they don't detect being connected to the cell towers used at home, then they automatically switch off Wi-Fi (and possibly turn it back on when they do detect a connection to those towers).

Yeah, I'm with you on that. I tend to install a ton of interesting apps when I see them, and categorize them into groups (many apps fit multiple groups) so when I'm looking to do something in particular the apps that might fill the need are together to try it with. If those search launchers allowed for adding multiple tags to each app for categorizing and searching, then they'd probably work well enough for me to try.

Plenty of those for free on F-Droid & IzzyOnDroid.

 

People are calling for violence against FEMA on TikTok and X, new reports say.

I seriously don't understand why these people aren't immediately tracked down and arrested for terroristic threats. This BS is way beyond any reasonable "free speech" limit.

They said "proper".

I'm referring to Android versions. No extensions allowed on Android Chrome, but Kiwi does. Android Firefox allows some small number of extensions, but IceRaven allows many more.

Kiwi Browser is Android Chrome with desktop extension compatibility.

Use IceRaven for Firefox with full extension compatibility.

I'd normally let this go, but since the whole post is about being pedantic imma make an exception:

Here here

I'm afraid that's actually "hear, hear.'
