Glad I could help! I wasn’t sure if I was missing something in what you were trying to do - I get that in some cases folding in those features can make things a lot easier.

Don’t really understand why you’re overriding __new__. Surely it’d work better to use:

def __init__(self, source: str | Path, *args: Any) -> None:
        super().__init__(Path(source, *args).expanduser().resolve())

But this removes self.__source and the property. I’m not sure what the advantage of using that is but you could always set that before the line super().__init__(Path(source, *args).expanduser().resolve()).

EDIT: if I’ve completely misunderstood, please could you explain? I don’t really understand what subclassing is trying to achieve here, other than simplifying access to certain os.path functions.

Sounds like you were engaging in whataboutism and that was the problem

I moved from Splitwise to Splid. I wish I had a FOSS alternative too.

Ah sorry, I missed a bit in your post - it’s correction during typing only. Upping this setting could help but I suspect you want something else

Heliboard isn’t perfect but is an openboard fork that has spell check, is getting active development, and is on F-droid. There’s even a correction sensitivity setting. It’s the first time I’ve been able to move away from Swiftkey.

I loved Lego Island but will never forgive Lego Island 2 for the bad disk that would crash after 3/4 of the game. I never got to finish it.

Rock Raiders & Lego Loco were great (if a little inadvisable in terms of the Lego Loco letters).

This comment from A7pr8 seems to suggest it is possible to modify the apk via Lucky Patcher, which hopefully would then work on a non-rooted phone:

You can’t just send the app from your rooted device. When you mod the app on a rooted device only .odex file will be patched not the .apk file.

You need to rebuild .apk to be able to share it and the the other device should also has luckypatcher for it to work.

Simply when you patch an app use the option create modified .apk or rebuild it from “rebuild & install” in the bottom bar.

Yeah, I absolutely want this option on all keyboards too. I just moved to openboard and it’s the thing I miss most by far.

I’d have jumped on one of those if it had a microSD slot

Yeah, it’s not cool. However, the Xperia phones up to series iii all have LineageOS releases, which can extend the life, and I’m hoping it comes to the later series as those get to EOL. They absolutely should have better official support though.

Just to offer an alternative viewpoint, because I have come across these issues and ended up buying a Sony phone because I had such a bad time without the 3.5mm headphone socket.

Some people want more internal storage than even 512gb - I have a 400gb microSD in my phone because with the OS and apps getting bigger, even a large internal storage can fill up fast. Also, it’s nice to have media collections, photos, and other files with you, rather than relying on data and cloud storage, and the cost is now very low for a large microSD. It’s also easier to transfer large amounts of data between devices that way.

As for headphones, dongles are a pain and USB headphones have to have a (usually not great) DAC in them to work, plus many people already have great headphones they want to keep using. All of that said, the biggest issue with USB headphones IMO is that there is only one USB port - the wear and tear of using it for everything is significant. Also, USB-C plugs are much more breakable and harder to replace than a 3.5mm jack. Additionally, you cannot charge and listen at the same time without a dongle and many of those are bad (none of the ones I have tried have worked for more than a few weeks before connectivity issues started).

I moved to Splid and found it a bit less clear than Splitwise but better in other ways once I’d figured it out. It’s not FOSS, unfortunately, but I do trust it much more than Splitwise.

I use MiX, which has a “Search local” option when adding SMB, which sounds like what you’re after

Jellyfin only l does HDR to SDR transcoding (unless I’m out of date). I had to turn off transcoding to ensure the HDR content was handled by the receiving hardware instead. I believe HDR to HDR transcoding is coming to Jellyfin, as it was held up by their version of ffmpeg that now has the needed feature merged, but I’m yet to see it available in Jellyfin itself.

I don’t know about your scenario but I recently started using Insular to manage separating my work apps on my phone and that’s been great

That’s great! That is a scary thing to do, so way to go

Good luck! It’ll be strange at first but it is worth sticking it out until you have settled a bit

Can you find some group therapy? You may find it beneficial to be with others who have similar troubles in a caring and understanding situation. It sounds like you have had some bad luck socially, which makes it easy/tempting to shut the world out, so learning to be open with others and to deal with difficult subjects with them may be beneficial to you in ways that one-on-one therapy cannot offer. It can also be helpful hearing others voicing their problems, as those may be things that affect you in ways you hadn’t considered before too.

I’m with you on this. How on earth are one-off login events supposed to work? I want nothing about me logging on to be stored on that device or account other than, for example, the code I download. Maybe I’m missing something but the search I just did suggested connecting my phone via bluetooth, which is also not an option.
