TheWaterGod@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•Google’s ‘Secret’ Update Scans All Your PhotosEnglish2·4 months agoIt doesn’t show in the app drawer, but I found it via the all apps in Settings.
Go to the Settings App > Apps > “See all XX apps”. It’s called Android System SafetyCore, so it should be close to the top of the list. Tap on it and select Uninstall.
TheWaterGod@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•Google’s ‘Secret’ Update Scans All Your PhotosEnglish4·4 months agoI’m curious about this. I’ve got a Pixel 6 and noticed that the battery started going to shit about a month or so ago? I couldn’t find an install date for SafetyCore, but it was listed in my apps. I’ve uninstalled it now. It’ll be interesting to see if that was causing it.
I’d prefer something higher resolution, but it’s got a bunch of upvotes. If the people seem to like it, I’m not going to remove it.
TheWaterGod@lemmy.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•How do you feel about the outcome of the US election?English32·8 months agoNumb. Sad. Mostly numb.
I was cheering for Kamala. I wanted the US to succeed. She had the big rallies, the celebrity endorsements, the polls were saying it was neck-and-neck. It looked like sanity was going to prevail. Then Trump just basically sweeps it and it’s like…oh. It’s easy to call the Americans “stupid” or whatever insults I’ve seen flying around the internet, but there was a vote. He won the vote. Over 72 million people think that Trump and the Republican ideology lines up best with their ideology. Who am I to argue with that? I don’t agree with it, but I guess that’s democracy in action. Regardless of what lies were told or what disinformation was spread, people overwhelmingly went out, voted for ol’ Donny, and this is the result. That’s how she goes I guess…? I don’t fucking know anymore dude.
My heart absolutely breaks for the people of Ukraine. I’m sure they’ll lose their US support come January. They don’t deserve that.

TheWaterGod@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is there a sub somewhere between shitty food porn and food porn?English10·1 year agoYou’re more than welcome to post on shitty food porn. There’s not a lot of activity and the votes will let you know if it’s the right place (I don’t remove posts unless they’re breaking rules). It kind of has two interpretations - pictures of shitty food (self explanatory) or food porn that’s shitty (ie bad lighting, bad presentation, etc).
Or let me know if you start an “average food porn” community and I’m more than happy to link it in the sidebar of SFP.

TheWaterGod@lemmy.cato Bicycles@lemmy.ca•Victoria (BC, Canada) cyclists furious after finding screws and nails left on purpose on new bike lane - Canadian Cycling MagazineEnglish0·2 years agoHey, that’s my city! I’m sad to say that I’m not overly surprised. I don’t know if it’s an everywhere thing, but there’s a vocal minority in Victoria that have a real stick up their ass about bike lanes.
TheWaterGod@lemmy.caMto Shitty Food Porn@lemmy.ca•Polish SFP: Store bought pierogi, fried, paired with store bought pickles.2·2 years agoShitty? Bruh, that looks fucking delicious. I’d demolish that whole pan.
I’m sure there’s an argument to be made about not buying things you can’t afford, but looking at the graph in that article, people are going to get fucked on mortgage renewals. Anyone that locked in for 3/4/5 years are going to be renewing between now and the next couple of years and going from BOC rate of 0.25% to 5% or more is going to hurt.
Someone I know is looking at renewing their mortgage in the next couple of months and they’re already looking at a jump from 3% to >6%.
You’re on thin ice posting food porn worthy stuff here 😋

There is definitely an undercurrent of anger/disappointment towards the USA and Americans, but it’s nowhere near the point of being hostile towards American visitors. No one is going to be chasing you out with pitchforks. Parts of the Island (and Victoria in particular) have big tourism industries and would be more than happy to have you spend your money and support local Canadian businesses.
The other comments have touched on it, but I think a couple of things to be aware of are 1) be polite/respectful, and 2) leave politics at the door. From your post, you’re obviously not a Trump supporter, but I think it applies to both sides. Obviously we don’t want to hear people talking about 51st state bullshit or wearing MAGA hats, but I think Canadians are equally tired of the “sorry about Trump” sentiment as well.
Hope you have a good trip! Sproat Lake is an amazing spot. You just missed them moving the Martin Mars bombers!
