Not every distribution of Android have this, but it’s Android we are speaking about. There is a ton of good open source apps that do just that.

Check if Settings ➜ Account ➜ Show Post/Comment Scores is on. It’s an instance-side setting to hide the scores.

As some people poined out, I was talking about VK. A Russian social network that ended up in the claws of Russian government, which in turn ended up in massive political repressions of it’s userbase for posting “wrong” things.

He then made Telegram and used Russian government’s attempts to block it as a PR campaign. I guess that’s what made it so appealing at first, but now French government stepped in and we are going all over again.

The guy has a history of making something that looks good and then selling it to governments. I’m surprised people took the bait for the second time.

You can add mpv to FreeTube as an external player. With yt-dlp, it supports playing YouTube videos directly and in any quality. It also has a plugin for SponsorBlock integration.

I’m using Freetube, too. While it fails to play 2160p reliably, you can always use a button to send the video to an external player like MPV. And MPV works without any issues.

Usually the methods are not shared because streaming services would go out of their way to break them. Just like Youtube breaks yt-dlp every now and then. But Youtube is too big to implement any serious protection, so, downloaders usually win. I heard Crunchyroll is ripped via their mobile app, albeit modified. But specifics are better left in the dark.

It’s just a domain name, it has nothing to do with sites being safe. Just as any other site, they may be malicious, may be not, depends on who runs the site.

Why not use a proper downloader for that sort of stuff like yt-dlp? You can get it running on Android via Termux.

You misspelled “StarCraft 1” so bad.

You can play HotS without Battle.net, you’ll just have to input your credentials manually whenever you start the game. Alternatively, contrary to Steam, you can just kill Battle.net after it has updated and launched the game.

I’ve used VLC for an incredibly long time, until I found about mpv about two weeks ago. It’s both a lot lighter and packs a lot more utility. I can finally frame step backwards and see millisecond timestamps! The only downside is that you have to do a bit of tinkering with all the configs and plugins, but it’s so worth it.

Not to invalidate the point made, but…

While Japanese indeed uses question marks, you can get screwed if you think that every sentence without a question mark at the end is not a question. For example, this is a grammatically correct question:

それは質問ですか。

rand() generates a number from 0 to a constant defined in stdlib, which usually corresponds to the architechture of your compiler. So, for 32 bit systems (assuming all the software in the line is 32 bit, too) it will be 2^31-1 = 2 147 483 647, as 1 bit in integers is reserved for negative numbers and 1 number is 0.

Though, by design it is guaranteed to be at least 32767, which is a value for 16 bit integers.

Apple products are usually easy to use and hellishly restrictive, preventing the dum-dum user from breaking it. Phones that run under Android allow for much more customization and utility, to the point you can “soft lock” your OS.

Apple is less functional, easy to use, hard to break (software-wise, at least). Android is more functional, though requires skills to get to the functionality and not break anything.

Meaning those with the skills use Android. Thus, skill issue.

Except rethrowing an exception in C# is just throw;, anything else is a crime against the person who reads your stacktraces.

Skill issue.

Or you can just use it via Termux.

No shit, they said “hidden”.

Bigot.
