  • Unfortunately not ALL apps. Certain apps have checks in place to detect if they were installed from the Play Store or not, and if they don’t, they won’t start and ask you to reinstall. I have to be careful ful which apps I update through Aurora.

    It’s absolute horseshit and goes against the entire open ecosystem thing but what can we do.

    That being said with how ad ridden the Play Store is, I’m glad I never have to open it unless it’s to open one of those stupid apps.



  • My point is they shouldn’t be the ones doing the auditing (or at least ordering it), it should be an outside source doing it (in this case, I guess a government entity? Or something independent from LMG anyhow).

    I’ll gladly admit to being a cynic, but that’s because I’ve worked in similar work environments, quit for very similar reasons and saw nothing being done too. So it’s a sore spot for me too. I can easily see my own bias in this situation.

    In any case, we’ll have to wait and see how it pans out. Hopefully for the best is what matters in the end.



  • My point is that when you are the one ordering an investigation on yourself, usualyl the results are bound to be highly skewed towards what you want.

    I’ve seen my government recently do this in a pretty big corruption case that would have made heads roll, as well as a couple other private entities I can think of who have hired “outside investigators” to investigate themselves only to go like what I said.

    I’m obviously open to being proven wrong in this case, but the track record of such things isn’t very positive.

    Sorry I wasn’t very clear, I just didn’t want to make my comment too big.



  • This post should be pinned. I went in not liking her because to be she came off on camera as unlikable (giving you this context so you know my mindset going in to the read).

    By the end, I was sickened, disgusted and appalled at the treatment she got. I have obviously unsubbed. I was going to wait this out to see how LMG solved this but fuck them. I wish her all the best and as swift a recovery as possible.

    The saddest thing is, reading that post, you can tell exactly when she’s quoting linus even when she doesn’t mention him.
