I got it from the zlibrary main site where they have the browser addons etc

Sorry no clue the app doesn't show urls but has always got me there. I do know there's a reddit sub for the site it would probably be easy to find there.

One thing I think Z-Library really did right is making an onion site and their own apps to find the site (I presume these have some tor ability built in as well I might be wrong though) .

I'd like to see more sites doing the same kind of thing.

I'm on 14 but to be honest the only difference I really noticed is GTA Vice City got broken by it I presume it will never be fixed since they seem to have done another version.

So yeah it's really only taught me not to buy apps again I'm not a fan of the restricted folder/file manager restrictions either.

I do but not an open source one. Basically just use Google's with rcs disabled because for me the rcs messages only resulted in me getting a could not be delivered message 3 or so days later (I'm in the UK I hear it actually works elsewhere but yeah I've never sent one that actually delivered). I think it's a common thing here as I've had to disable rcs on several relatives phones because their messages didn't deliver at all and that's most of the main phone networks

To be honest though I do use Signal more than Sms but it would be silly not to have it all on a phone.

Yeah this articles the first I've heard myself of blue light being unhealthy. I've always fancied some glasses that block it like gunnar glasses or something if nothing else it's helped me justify that purchase..

And yeah to me it's pretty set in stone blue light wakes you up.

As someone who worked nightshift for 18 years I really think it does at least help sleep wise. I blocked Blue light a few hours before I want to sleep and when waking I'd use a sad/sun light when waking up.

I don't do it now but I'm convinced that's one of the reasons I managed it for so long.

Basically I'm saying blue light wakes you up and helps set your body clock but avoiding blue light for a while helps you sleep. I was never aware of any claims blue light is unhealthy but I guess it makes sense as you could argue the sun itself is bad for you.

I don't use one but if I did want an open source one I think I'd give the fossify tools a look.

Basically they forked all the Simple mobile apps when some dodgy company bought them so I'm pretty sure all the fossify forks are safe.

I use their gallery app with no issue.

I'm Suprised people don't just paint everything white in really hot countries. I've always felt that would probably help a lot.

True it would probably look bad a lot quicker.

I'd say they just didn't go touchscreen in time I remember a friend having the first iPhone and another had a Nokia n95 The N95 was way ahead in features and technology but people wowed over the Apple screen..

Only virus I ever got was pespaces back in the 95 days it was a hard mess to clean up mainly because it infected every single exe file and broke a lot of them.

Kinda remember cleaning it up from a dos floppy then once clean basically reinstalling every broken program one at a time.

In hindsight I should have just done a fresh install but I was new to computers.

I sometimes think about disabling defender I think theres a site that can do it. Downside is it'll probably break windows but yeah it annoys me it's always wasting my battery plus yeah it throws fits over things like cracks

Last time I was mad enough to think about this it wasn't even a crack it was Autohotkey it didn't like.
