Lol good.

Not close, it is point blank.

I wonder if it is because you added that way, rather than from f-Droid or something.

No idea. If I had a spare still running android (trying out postmarketos on a few devices) I’d like to give it a try. Maybe I’ll spin up a VM.

What apps?

No idea. Play Store then update itself via its at store rev? Preinstalled on a ROM? Via adb?

That said, all the link refers to is a few sample permissions (which would not include F-Droid from that list) and only via certain methods being downloaded. Or they have it wrong and its “opened from”.

Its still shitty, but as of now I’m not sure if there is any impact to installing F-Droid, but I can say the method of installation has complied with previous versions of googles “protections” (as in forced limitations) and that appears to continue to be true.

How did you install aurora store?

I’m curious because ive seen no issues with F-Droid (just had a few updates actually), and the F-Droid team have commented on this sort of approach before, including the method being used for installation.

I don’t use aurora, so I’m not overly familiar.

Just FYI, no, F-Droid will not be impacted.

Links in this comment explain, they are incorrect about how F-Droid works.

Which is why I said negligence at most, and arguable.

I see you aren’t actually reading what I said, just making assumptions about my position on things, so I’ll go ahead and stop here.

I’m not debating any of that.

That said, the vaccine is not new, she is an adult, and as I said I don’t advocate a murder charge. At most its negligent homicide.

But none of that changes the base facts:

• She was infected
• She passed it on
• She isn’t vaccinated
• The measles vaccine is in no way a new discovery
• The measles vaccine has been part of medical messaging for decades

I cannot call her a victim in any way other than the loss of her child.

F-Droid uses Session Installer, which is an “app store” method.

This is not a new issue:

Vaccination isn’t against mennonite rules, and the mother is an adult.

So I can’t see a scenario where she is the victim (other than the loss of her child, which is the issue of negligience that could be argued).

That doesnt appear to be true, the restriction seems to be on apps being installed from file managers, web browsers, messaging, etc.

F-droid and the like are not part of that list.

This still isn’t good, but it doesnt stop you from having F-droid manage your messaging apps it would seem.

Edit: If you’re down voting because you think its using the same method as a file manager as the user that replied to me, this is incorrect. This is also an issue going back several versions.

F-Droid uses a session installer method for 3rd party app stores, it does not use the same method as a file manager.

For an article about a similar issue brought up by similar restrictions in previous updates, you can refer to this article:

https://www.androidauthority.com/android-15-restricted-settings-sideloading-3481098/

You can also refer to this thread in the F-Droid forums which covers this as well, from 2 1/2 years ago:

https://forum.f-droid.org/t/sideloading-restrictions-or-removal-in-future-how-it-effects-fdroid/21089/10

Which also includes a merged discussion from the last time this came up 9 months ago.

F-Droid has been using the session installer method for quite some time.

FYI

Infant had ‘contracted the virus before birth from their mother’, while the country has recorded 2,755 measles cases

It happens to be pretty clear in this case.

Edit: Not saying I would consider it murder. Negligent homicide maybe.

For that, I’d highly recommend a power conditioner with outlet controls (and preferably sequencing).

Most are pretty expensive, but you can get something like a surgex squid or a gude expert power control for a few hundred here and there, which will give you great data on power usage as well. You can also grab an older model with serial and/or relay controls, and use a pi or whatever is handy to trigger it. Actually have a setup like that in a few racks for clients (mostly orange pis and a couple of Asus tinker boards).

Hope your trip goes well!

Edit - aww I think I irritated the tankies

Nah, I think you’re missing the parts where this is how things go downhill.

For example:

very different from being thrown into a jail or executed.

ICE. Right now.

They have every right to say that about the US

People are being rejected at the border for less (and specifically about Israel for now)

where the government will happily throw you and your family behind bars for saying something even approaching a bad opinion of government action.

The WH pardoned insurrectionists, is considering pardoning kidnappers, and threatening prosecution whenever someone disagrees with anything they say.

… So its not just tankies who will take issue with what you’ve said, but also those who think people should be treated like people, genocide is terrible, and individual rights and freedoms exist for everyone, and not just the wealthy.
