Actually....android has the exact same app name. "Files" but I guess it's real name if you want to make sure you're getting the right one is "Files by Google"

For android, it seems to be the best one for finding recent stuff and navigating around. Like any newly downloaded or modified thing saved to the phone shows up under a "recently" section in Files, so it works out well for dealing with such a screwball android filing system.

It's the dumbest setup possible with how android handles saved files, and even worse by all the hoops to put files or look at files from specific folders on your phone due to all the permissions crap.

But the easiest way to find where something was saved is to open up "Files" which is "Files by Google" to be exact. It will whatever file you saved or modified right there in the "recent" section at the top so you can look at whatever goofball place it was actually saved to.

You can't use slow chargers between midnight and 6 am if you can't charge the vehicle at your house.

You know much about Tokyo? How many people there do you think live in houses with a garage compared to apartments? Your idea only works for the portion of people with a house and at least a driveway.

No. They're talking about the jammers getting cheap and easy to get. Cheap wifi security cameras have been a thing for over a decade now. Then got stupid dirt cheap in 2017 when wyze started selling one for $20.

I'm sure, but how are they actually supposed to know that? You unlocked your bootloader, installed something like twrp, and obtained root access to jiggle with anything you want at that point. I used to have a lot of fun doing all that type of stuff, but I knew I voided out my warranty doing it unless I could still roll it back to factory and remove root, first. Not to mention dealing with knox.

I give simple examples of power load issues and some of y'all take it like a literal argument against just some examples and then the problem goes away. Good grief. Essentially your "easy to accomadate" is just everyone use less power and charge your cars longer".

Any video apk you install can't consume more than what the kernel allows for. It can't change throttling parameters, cant change apu speed, and it can't change how fast the battery can be charged or the upper limit it will charge to. All apks can only do what they're allowed to do, and it's a lot less than what flashed phones and custom kernels can do. Right now, for instance, your phones battery never actually charges to max capacity, or discharges to minimum capacity before powering down. Your "100%" is actually more like 90%, but it increases the batts lifespan because the most damage done to lithium batteries is at the high end and low end of what it can hold. Same for all the fast charge stuff. Fast charging is bad for the batt. That's why even if you're using the fastest charge option on your phone, by the time you hit around 50% it starts slowing the charge rate down. The phone is programmed to do that to save the battery from degrading quicker. A custom kernel and OS could change that.

It's actually a lot more work than "add more electricity". It's a load demand issue in areas, and if there's a bunch of high load electric cars trying to charge that needs all the extra equipment and transformers and larger gauge wiring and stuff to go with it.

Like, look at your house. You may just have a 100 amp breaker box on it. Now you couldn't handle a high-speed charger pulling 40 amps for your car, 30 for the hvac, 20 for lights/tv/computers etc, and then trying to get another 15 or so from and oven or vacuum cleaner. You'll need a bigger amp breaker box, only you can't just install that because the line running to your house also isn't big enough, so you have to have the electric company come out and install a bigger line. But if too many houses in the area need all that, then the main run of lines and equipment going to that neighborhood will also have to be built up.

Toyota doesn't like all electrics because they don't want to add a $15,000 battery to a vehicle and make it weigh 1,000 pounds more for a vehicle that will no longer be in working condition 15 to 20 years later. They'll fully change their tone once battery tech gets better than lithium based stuff made today. Until then hybrids are great. Cheaper lighter batteries with no range issues and easy to replace the batts when needed.

If magisk still works like custom stuff in the days of old, settings could very much change battery draw and charge rates that could cause premature wear of a battery.

Until we stick it in an led!

I guess past the uv range we should just call them ED, but then you only think about erectile dysfunction.

They're less than shutting down. Funimation was where these shows are. Sony owns Funimation, and funimation bought crunchyroll. Funimation is switching their name to crunchyroll because it has more positive name recognition.

So funimation is essentially claiming that Funimation purchases will be null and void after funimation chooses to change its name to crunchyroll.

Also, since crunchy and fun were competitors and they were allowed to buy themselves into a near monopoly, they're upping the subscription prices.
