@electrineer Yes, but it is a whack-a-mole game with Google.
Google makes changes with Android updates that screw over third-party file managers.

> "WHO THE FUCK NEEDS THAT MUCH STORAGE IN THEIR PHONE?!!"
You when you use the camera a lot and don't want to spend a second worrying about how much space you have remaining.
More space = progress = good.
I once had a 32 GB smartphone and it was a nightmare. -
Never worrying about ENOSPC.
Also, MicroSD guards against data loss if your USB port breaks. -
Which browser?
Firefox: about:config > javascript.enabled
In Chrome, it should be in "Privacy and security" > "site settings", or just "site settings". -
@netikras A bot gives a better response than humans? Mind blown.

Perhaps the creators of tar hate Tarl Warwick, so they avoided "tar -l".
Edit: Nah, impossible. tar was made before Tarl was born. -
I have a better idea:
Say "fsck you" to the Mr. Einstein who had the idea to copycat "pull to refresh" from the Twitter app. -
"But remember, it's just for your protection bruh!!1!"
-
@c3r38r170 Another thing:
If I am at the top, pull-to-refresh even prevents me from scrolling down if I swiped up ever so slightly before swiping down.
Avoiding pull-to-refresh is a dizzying walk on eggshells. It prevents enjoying web browsing relaxed.
A screen-sized refresh button is an anti-feature which needs to be eliminated everywhere. -
Hey spammer.
Go FSCK yourself.
Yes, you heard it right. FSCK. With an S. -
"Bitches"?
You must have confused us with BitchUte.
BitchUte is here, if you are looking for it: https://BitchUte.com -
Will you make it possible for us to OS-stream operating systems from Steam?

@devRancid With progressive enhancement (HTML first, then JavaScript), the useful content loads first.
With a JavaScript app, the useful content loads last. Only after all those megabyte-sized JavaScript files. -
@kiki In the comments :-)
-
@black-kite A lightweight static version could be displayed instead of an error message if the JS framework fails.
The JS framework just needs to hide itself if it detects it failed. -
@devRancid Read my post again.
JavaScript is an enhancement, not a replacement.
This means the initial page load is via HTML, but enhancements such as posting comments without reloading the page are done via JavaScript. -
@c3r38r170 That's my point. If it takes skill to avoid the entire screen as a refresh button, it is an admission that pull-to-refresh is undesirable.
Just over 2000 other people think so too:

@K-ASS You misspelled fsck.
-
@black-kite Then which feature can not be added to an HTML-based website?
HTML-based means JavaScript can be added on top. Just the initial load should not depend on JavaScript, because it's faster and more reliable that way.

@Stuxnet Smartphone and app makes switched from black to white, realized it was a bad idea, switched back.
E.g. Galaxy Note 4 white menu backgrounds. -
@micahgreene452 Hi, spammer.
Do everyone here a favour and kindly go fsck yourself.
Thank you very, very much. -

@tosensei Indeed, but ext4 is from the late 2000s. FAT is from the 1980s, as far as I am aware.
Microsoft says they "love Linux". Hmmm… not enough to support the file system of Linux, apparently. -
"And it's not even the worst on the site."
Then what is? -
Addition: Web apps are also difficult to archive. They require headless browsers that create WARC files that need a "WARC player" to open.
HTML-based pages can be archived as simple HTML. -
@Lensflare These synchronization services can usually store only up to one session per account, because they are just intended for what their name implies. Synchroniztation across devices. Not for backups.
-
@Lensflare So does Safari let the user create a text file containing opened tabs, history, and bookmarks?
-
@electrineer This is not my screenshot, I got it from web search.
-
@Lensflare Yes, for exporting browser tabs and history to a file.
Without exporting ability, the data dies along with the phone.
