Thank you so much! Had no idea what that media chip was called. For others, the exact setting path is:

Lock screen and AOD -> Now bar -> Media Player

I was looking through the top level Display settings menu, and didn't think to look under the lock screen settings. Kind of annoying that I have to disable media controls for the lock screen to disable the flashing animated media chip when the phone is unlocked. Why do they tie the two features together under one setting item?

 

Android 15 users, however, will have an issue: Samsung TTS can only be used with Samsung TalkBack. Multi-language automatic switching helpers like Tech Freedom, AutoTTS, and Multilingual TTS can’t use the Samsung voices

It is infuriating to see this happen, especially now that we have neural voices with an expressivity that’s better than it’s ever been.

This is a huge regression in accessibility, and comes off as a rather distasteful decision by Samsung. What motives would they have to nerf accessibility for users who want to continue using their existing screen readers with system default voices?

Interesting! Got a source to learn more about that?

This would make for a fun AI redub of the original song vocals.

It's any epoxy that most hardware stores would carry. Useful if the gap left behind by the fracture is larger than would be normally repairable with super glue alone. E.g. the graphite plastic for the molded part on the wheel armature disintegrated along the fracture, no longer resulting in a clean mating surface between pieces.

Could you fix it with some JB Weld?

That's a cute flash forward. For those of the loop:

You can use a USB hub dongle which passes through power via USB C with a Google TV (4K) device. That's what I do for mine to connect it to the rest of my GbE VLAN via wired ethernet connection and avoid Wi-Fi packet drops when streaming or casting 4K HDR content. A dongle is also handy to connect any USB web cam so I can use the TV for large family video calls with the grandparents in the living room, via Android apps like Google Meet or Zoom.

Here is the one I use that also has a combo headphone jack with GbE Ethernet and passthrough charging, so also nice for Moonlight gaming on modern android 120Hz HDR tablets where I don't want to use low bitrate HFP Bluetooth for discord calls while also listening to game audio and music. Note, when used with the Google TV, I don't use the USB Hub's HDMI, opting for the Google TV's international cord to maintain Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) functionality.

In your opinion, what's a good example of a well written Solarpunk story? How about another one that is at least well known in pop culture?

I'd say "Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind" could be one good example. Perhaps a little more post-apocalyptic, but it's got all the markings of positive change, societal sustainability, and environmentalism, along with futuristic sci-fi world building. Both the anime and manga are fantastic, but I guess not too prominent in Western pop culture.

Are there graphic artists who can't digitally draw using this kind of prompting to create online comics or manga yet? This would be really cool for writers who can only storyboard, but are not yet skilled enough to draw and paint every panel by hand at the rate they can write. From this Lemmy community, portraits and still poses seem plausible to green screen with this technique, but I imagine more dynamic motion or action scenes would be harder to choreograph with splicing together multiple characters and perspectives.

Those look like young versions of the two sisters, White Foot and Black Foot, from the information merchant guild in the WebToon "Wail of a Dragon's Rage":

Until proven otherwise, I think I'll just adopt this art into my own head canon for those two characters in that series.

How do the floors in the upper structure handle the sloping incline of the geometric shape? Is there just a lot of closed off volumetric slivers between the planes of the floor and ceiling and shell, or is there only one or two floors, with the upper floor having a larger rising canopy?

The publisher is WebToon. Looks the the first three chapters can be read online via a web browser without an account from the link. But the rest of the series now seems to require an account, but are still free with adds or one chapter a day. You may find a boot leg mirror on your average online manga scaner website.

 
 

Reminded me of this meme from a while back:
