I don't think this should surprise anyone, given the new CEO they got and the announcement that was made immediately afterwards, followed by the layoffs. Fortunately, there are Firefox forks that we can switch to as a form of protest, provided that the forks keep these changes out of their codebases.

One thing I predict happening is that this move by Mozilla could spur more activities for the Firefox Forks. It would be a good opportunity for the developers of Mull, Librewolf, and Waterfox to think of ways to make their respective browsers stand out or be unique. Maybe we can one day see an Android version of Librewolf or a new web engine get developed in response to all this mess. Just a thought, of course.

Cool, I'm liking this new Mozilla already! ...NOT!!!

I'm a huge fan of the Marx Brothers. All their movies are in black and white. Their best movies (in my opinion) are:

  • Horse Feathers
  • Monkey Business
  • Duck Soup
  • A Night at the Opera

Abbott and Costello had some good movies too. Here are my suggestions:

  • Meet the Invisible Man
  • Meet the Killer
  • Hold that Ghost
  • Meet the Mummy

Bing Crosby and Bob Hope made a few "Road To..." movies together, but the one I like the most is Road to Morocco.

Yeah...I don't believe it.

Impressive! This might become a worthy competitor to Valve's Steam Deck.

I think I'll just stick with Mastodon and Lemmy.

So...what does this mean for those who have F-Droid or Aurora Store installed on their phones? Will apps from those stores be considered "unverified" by Google's standards?

I had the same problem after flashing GOS onto my device, but my wife who uses an iPhone also had that problem. I don't recall how she eventually logged in though, but when I searched online about the 401.122 error message, I got answers that suggest it could be a problem on MyQ's end.

How was CalyxOS overall? Are there some things that CalyxOS does better than GrapheneOS?

[–] heygooberman@lemmy.today 2 points 9 months ago

That's alright!

Yeah, I think there's another comment on this post that mentioned the same thing.

[–] heygooberman@lemmy.today 3 points 9 months ago

Yeah, here's the Mastodon post announcing Android Auto implementation:

Oh, I don't use Google Pay with NFC. Prior to flashing GOS on my Pixel 6, the only time I used NFC was to unlock my car when I didn't have the physical key fob with me. That was done through my car manufacturer's mobile app (BMW). However, when I went to set up the digital key after flashing GOS, the app told me that it couldn't set up the digital key, because I was using an unsupported version of Android.
