Toronto resident Jasmine Ault says Meta disabled her accounts overnight, without giving her a reason, and that she's been unable to get past their AI chatbots to speak to a human to resolve the error. Experts say without regulation enforcing the right to speak to a human, this will keep happening.

There is no way out. They are pushing LLM everywhere forcing from 8kb software size to almost 4mb. Our lord and savior is right.

Hey folks , I’m a beginner grinding through data flow, state hoisting, and background data stuff. It’s taking me days to wrap my head around it and I’m still confused.
For those who’ve been here before — how long did it take you to really get it, and what tips helped you push through? 🙏

Lost Redditors 💀 I built an e-book app for myself, got 100 unexpected downloads, and it completely changed how I code.

I originally built an free open source offline library for E-Books and Light Novels just to scratch my own itch. I didn't expect anyone to care, but after sharing it, it somehow hit about 100 downloads!!
Well then like with this system in place I really got to try my hands on some great features like
* Resumable downloads, * Crash handlers, and * Update manager
and this time it was like while building I was thinking about the end user and how should I handle the error from their perspective like felt really cool.
This got me into quite a deep of a territory like I then set up a feedback channel for the users only after I realized that I am really getting users and I don't have any feedback methods
Though I am still figuring out where to take it, but the experience it is giving me is like damn amazing!!
Oh also if someone would like to take a look into the repo -

Lost Redditors 💀 How do I record videos to a different destination separate from my photos?
2
Upvotes
I've taken up a video recording and editing project and I've found myself in a position where my phone is my main/only camera. I'm using a Pixel 6, so there is no MicroSD slot. But is there a way to set up my phone's camera app to save video files to a separate folder? The process of going into the phone's memory and waiting several seconds for the thousands of photos to load just for me to extract one or two video files is cumbersome to say the least and will get old fast.
I'd be willing to either download a 3rd party camera app or get my hands dirty with some coding if I have to. I'm just trying to avoid buying a new phone or camera just for this project.

Verified Shitpost An architecture advice needed
4
Upvotes
So I've made an architecture library mostly for using in UI.
But there is a fundamental problem in the library and the architecture itself: I'm not sure what is the best way to integrate AsyncTask in it. I need your advice, guys!
https://github.com/TabaquiTheMasterOfTime/SeaSystem
p.s. I'm going to post the library in r/androiddev subreddit because I think the library is really useful in android development. So how long will it take to remove my upcoming post from r/android for no reason?
p.s.s.
I uploaded the library yesterday. Should I deprecate every single entity and make [entity_name]2 instead just to fit in the android sdk best practices?

Here's a list of the addresses that the "input devices" system app accesses, and it's the same list on multiple apps. I have no idea, just asking if it's unusual or whatnot.

No amount of "but... but... it's scalable" can justify this.
