So... Got a rooted P9PXL and accidentally uninstalled a pretty vital app for file management. (For context: DocumentsUI.. Looks like a file management app for google) So, a few days after I uninstalled it, I noticed I couldn't download attachments from emails.

Thought it was a file association issue, but to no avail. Then I remembered uninstalling DocumentsUI... Did some research and seemed pretty grim to getting it back. However, I uninstalled it with Inure.

I recently got the app before using it to uninstall some system stuff, so I wasn't familiar with its capabilities. It can attempt to reinstall the app, which didn't work. But there is an option to Extract the apk... Tried it, and it definitely gave me a file with a random name. Went to install it, and sure enough, it reinstalled DocumentsUI.

Everything back to normal operations afterward. Inure is not just for this purpose, but man, did it save my ass. Definitely recommend.

Are you sure it wasn't sociopath? It does take a certain amount of decision-making lacking empathy or remorse.

This doesn't surprise me at all... Just like bots in games. Selling a service that benefits another. Its shady, but definitely believable.

Also, what if this is an actual viable way to "market" for an open source project?

What's a sentence nobody has said in 20 years? by minyaen in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[-] minyaen@lemmy.ml 16 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

I vividly remember... I was in the office and one of my coworkers comes up to me with a shit eating grin on his face - like he had something he wanted to share...

He said, "Have you ever heard of Bitcoin?" I said, "No..." He explained (sort of) what he thought it was, but sounded more like an investment opportunity (blah blah blah) less than 10 cents per... I didn't bite.

Lets just say this didn't age well for me, lmao.

Lemmy more social than Mastodon or Nostr by minyaen in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Lemmy more social than Mastodon or Nostr by minyaen in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Yes, objectively. I wasn't intending for that message to be in question.

Yeah, I get your point. But the question still remains. Lemmy objectively has more engagement/interaction regardless of the category of social media of each medium.

If you compare X to Lemmy, X has more engagement/interaction... And they are separate social media platforms categorically. Yet, Mastodon trumps Lemmy's user count by nearly 10 fold...

It stands to question that with a fraction of the users on Lemmy, why is the interaction/engagement considerably higher?

Having tried all three, its a stark difference in how much more social Lemmy is comparatively. Its not even close. Almost all posts I've encountered on lemmy have interaction; whereas, more often than not, posts on the other two platforms have no interaction. Wonder what the driving factor is behind this difference?

Pretty active day out there (TX, LA, MS). Stay safe out there...

If anyone is interested in extreme weather, take a look at Ryan Hall Ya'll YouTube channel. He often goes live for these outbreaks and operates a non-profit to help the victims of storms such as the ones today.

It's probably a pretty polar experience, watching The Boys, but man, I love this series. Gratified that they will be able to close out the show on their own terms.

Favorite FOSS apps - favorite finds of 2024 by minyaen in c/fdroid@lemmy.ml
[-] minyaen@lemmy.ml 4 points 5 months ago

Most of the time it's gplay, if the app is on it... Probably because the developer gets the most traffic through there. Sometimes its days to weeks earlier if its on gplay. Others, github/fdroid is a toss up. Pretty similar

Absolutely. I end up using it in conjunction with gplay and fdroid to see which ones are updated sooner. Very useful.

Did someone actually quit smoking after using a vape? by minyaen in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[-] minyaen@lemmy.ml 26 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

I quit not only because of vaping and tobacco-less nicotine pouches, but because I wanted it. If you are buying it for a family member, you can't make them quit... Hopefully they are wanting to, because you can't make that decision for them. Just like any other addict.
