  • I have a Pixel 7 Pro, in the U S. (and some other countries) call recording is disabled by default and sometimes it’s possible to get your phone to think it’s from a region where it isn’t, and then enable it, but I haven’t really looked into it recently. It’s also really fucked because my state in the U S. allows call recording, so I really feel Google is being lazy by restricting it countrywide.






  • Disagreed. If it requires a server side element, it incurs an ongoing cost and a subscription can be justified. And to clarify, by “requires”, I’m referring to the functionality, not having it shoveled in. And the price should be realistic.

    Some apps do this well, Sleep for Android is an example that comes to mind. Free with ads, ad-free is an inexpensive one time purchase. You can also purchase additional plugin apps that add functionality that isn’t required or even useful for most people. And finally, they have a cloud plugin app to let you backup your data, you can pay for their cloud subscription which is $2.99 a year, but you can also just use other cloud for storage like Google drive.


  • Zikeji@programming.devto3DPrinting@lemmy.worldPrusa or Bambu?

    One major con for Bambu is that the firmware is not open source (at least, last I checked). This puts you in a walled garden of sorts. It also can make you vulnerable, for example earlier this year a bug caused printers connected to Bambu’s cloud to start prints that weren’t request. You can imagine how bad that is.

    This being said, I plan on my next printer upgrade being to a Bambu. I’ve gotten tired of the calibration game and Bambu does that well.
