My take on the list: seems most issues are related to Samsung specifically. I've never owned a Samsung Android so I can't really relate to them. I don't really see the performance issue happening with mid tier androids though - I'm using a Motorola edge 20 and it is still just as fast as it was two years ago. Weaker decides definitely have this problem, but a flagship is not supposed to. Might be related to Samsung bloatware, maybe.

Complaints about apps and Google abandoning services is 100% real. I don't mind the inconsistent look and feel tho, I even kinda like it - I wouldn't like it if everything on my phone looked the same year after year (I tend to switch launchers and icon/theme sets from time to time). Also not a fan of the extra animations Apple tends to have (I'm saying this based on osx as I haven't actively used any iOS in a while). I've probably even tweaked the animation settings on my phone back when I got it to speed them up. Still, Apple's app ecosystem is miles ahead of android's in almost every way. Even though apps can do much more on Android than on iOS, the store is trash and Apple's isn't (store itself still has some issues but the average app on it is much better).

I'm curious about this shortcuts app. I vaguely remember hearing about it when it came out but I'm not sure what it can do, I'm gonna check it out. Can't comment on some other items as I don't drive, don't take many pictures, don't use my face to unlock and only really use one Bluetooth audio device.

Sleeping late on weekends no longer helps make up for it once you're on your 30s

Hard to believe this is true. Not the "feature" itself (that's very believable), but the claim that this was exposed as okta configs - that just doesn't make much sense. Not impossible, but very unlikely.

GitLab has such a strong work from home culture that I wish more companies would adopt, I hope they don't lose that if they're sold.

From the details that have come out about him already I would be surprised if he wasn't referred as that before. It is actually a pretty common "nickname" for kids that don't fit in even when they don't have hunting as a main personality trait already.

My guess is that the motive is the same as every school shooting, except that shooting at schools became too normie now.

And if there has to be shootings, I personally wouldn't mind replacing the usual targets to politicians instead of school kids.

I would switch 6+8 and 6+9

My wife got a pair and she liked them, but she also got an offbrand one she likes a lot more.

I read the "not the onion" name before clicking but it wasn't until I reached the end of the article and saw the author's name that it finally clicked that this was in fact not the onion.

While reading the thing it all seemed "weird this doesn't feel like an onion article even though the content is so much onion" and "are those references to other phallic stuff all from past onion articles too?"

In Portuguese we don't use many acronyms, but we have shorter versions of words with the vowels removed or things like that. When people tried to use acronyms we ended up with "fds" which some people read as weekend, others read as "fuck it". The only other acronyms I can think of right now are all for offenses such as fdp (son of a bitch) and cdf ("ass of iron", very old term for calling someone a nerd).

We get some concerned folks asking about vulnerabilities on our software all the time because some dependency has a critical vulnerability and that gets our stuff flagged as having critical vulnerabilities too, even tho you need to opt-in to that dependency in compile time and even when it's present it can only be abused by users with enough privilege to do directly much more than anything the vulnerability can end up doing.
