... That sounds like it would be great.

Not sure much of the human race (or many other land species) could survive a rerun's impact on the environment.

Yeah it was annoying, NewPipe I actually have installed, I just did it from the APK from GitHub I assume.

Making F-Droid an app in the Play Store would just open it to the same environment eventually though wouldn't it? Pressures to have ads to make money by sponsoring apps that have those things we don't like, which ultimately drive us back to installing via APK. It is a win for freedom of choice, that's true... But in the end I wonder if people would actually move from their currently working platforms. I could see the Play store just scalping apps they downloaded most often and adding them and taking a hit on their portion of profit on those apps to ensure the 99% of Android users still stay on their platform.

I mentioned something like this elsewhere, the Democrat president will make announcements to the people over the next 48 hours regarding their health and safety using a platform he knows the majority of his voters do not support the owner of. Not because the platform is better than others, but because it will reach a larger user base.

Yeah I'm sure it was a bug, but it stands to reason if someone doesn't have the time to fudge around with getting the F-Droid app to work on their device, they would just download the APK for the app they actually want installed that they are going through F-Droid to download I would think. Which would install the same way that F-Droid does now.

My guess is the best argument would come from the profit returns for a developer are higher as they don't have to pay a percentage to the Play store. That said, unless the app has massive adaption, costs would be low to host the download of the APK from their website.

I guess we will see in 5 years if there is enough apps that will choose to move to another app store to make users even figure out it matters. With many users right now they exist on environments that attach to their Gmail addresses that track which apps were on previous devices and install which apps they had on their new device in an easy manner. I myself have moved away from using my Gmail accounts and tried to slowly exit that sphere of influence some, but the mass public doesn't have motivations to do so. Over 50% of the public agrees Musk is not a good person, yet we watch people post shit on Twitter daily, change doesn't come easy.

Yarp, remember Florida took to long in 2000 to get the votes counted when Florida's supreme Court was turned down by the U.S. supreme Court to allow time to do one final recount as things were off.

They awarded all 25 Florida electorial votes to George Bush, and Gore stepped down to allow it to be a civil process.

If it takes to long to count Desantis only needs one round of Votes to show they were ahead, and stall on placing electors using his election police he created at his side to help the U.S. supreme Court double down on their original ruling 24 years ago

The count showed Gore won the Vote, would have won the election. Without it, we may have never invaded Iraq.

Since then, Florida has outgrown New York, going from 25 electoral votes to 30. The effects of Florida going 1 way or another is huge

What OS do you use? I haven't run anything different in a long while. The OS on my Galaxy S4 I think was my last OS I replaced

It would make them liars though. Desantis did talk to Biden, they will get the aid, and it will just show Desantis not treating Harris seriously, which Publicans would love. And they'd flop it as Democrats fake news with evidence...

Would be a horrible ad to run

To be honest this Guarantees Florida goes Red this round when it was getting close to turning back to purple. Tampa and Orlando both vote Blue, and many people will get displaced. Mail will be lost, voting locations will be destroyed, and you can't just show up to any polling place to vote. "Oh you moved across the state because your house is flooded, well you can vote 350 miles from where you are now, or you can vote by mail, we sent it to your mailbox that doesn't exist anymore"

I've never been arrested for a felony charge, I paid bail twice.

This avoids the whole premise of it though. It is supposed to be if they are a threat to not showin, but mostly a threat to the public as well, you set no bail. Non violent crimes make 0 sense to have bail on. If you don't attend there is a warrant placed for your arrest whether or not you paid bail. Also, ONLY rich people get all of their money back. The majority of the population posts bail using a bail bondsmen, so if they set your bail at $3000, you pay a bail bondman $300 to get out of jail until the court case (which will take months). You do not get that $300 dollars, the bondsmen gets it when you show up. If you do NOT show up, the bail bond company hires a bounty hunter to come after you, on top of the warrant for your arrest often times.

So you get pulled over for an accusation, are "innocent" until proven guilty, but either are forced to pay money to gain freedom, or are placed in jail until getting decided "innocent" as you already were

The article states they hacked it up 2900 times at least before this one. 30k different Christian sects in the U.S. last I knew
