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.

Pfft, just need a better word for it.

"Patriot Control" or "Freedom Ownership".

Simple and with words that make it sound like a 4th of July celebration.

But also make sure its current, and hopefully well documented.

I get what you mean, but if he were capable of recognizing that, I'm not sure he'd have gotten to this point in the first place.

I generally don't watch yt videos, but that was wildly interesting and amazing work! Had to watch all of it.

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!

You realize I'm not the same person, right? So maybe change the attitude a bit.

120Hz wasn't in your original question. For that you'd need to be in direct view LED territory, which is going to be in the $150k+ range, like an FE012I3 (at least with Sharp/NEC).

Sony has a line of Bravia post production OLEDs, the FWD-##A95Ls ( the number is the sizing) which is going to be a phenomenal production quality display. $7k-$10k.

LG and Samsung are all WebOS and Tizen respectively, but the versions are different than the consumer version. So its "smart", but not in the same way as consumer editions - sampling content and other such things would be a legal nightmare for them. So if you want "smart" but not "consumer smart" you can go that route, but expect about twice the price.

Edit: I suppose I can toss Planar into the mix here, different business purpose and youre not buying them at best buy. They are more of a 24x7 operation design. I don't think 120hz is on the sale list yet though, those will be part of the UltraRes series.

That wasn't the question, but sure.

Commercial series displays. Most of those now have the same (well, same base at least) OS on them though.

I'd say Sharp/NEC would be the only "dumb" professional series displays, at least of the major manufacturers.

You'll be at around $1500-$3000 for a nominal 80" (they make a 75" and an 86").
