  • In all fairness, I usually get the opposite. I grew up building DOS systems, but haven’t messed with command lines in years. Decided to build an unRAID server and dip my toes into jumping to Linux. If I ever get stuck, can’t find anything, and need to reach out, I usually get either “look it up” or “if you don’t know, you don’t need to be messing with X.”

    I’ll save your username…







  • I looked just to make sure, and it’s actually 652. But only 445 are user apps.

    I wish I could say a lot are junk, but there are a solid 100+ that I consider invaluable. I probably have 10+ backup apps alone (Google photos, Amazon photos, synctoy, Swift backup, folder sync, etc). Tasker and its app tree/plugins are probably close to 10. It adds up quick.

    Then I have 7 or 8 for lemmy (waiting for one to separate from the pack), same number of news apps, and so on and so forth. My main issue is that if I have to do something more than a couple times (or need to remember to do it), I automate it. Tasker does a lot, but I have to use ifttt to do web things so I don’t smoke my battery. Open with allows me to use different apps as defaults. Basically, I have 3-4 apps for every task since a single one can never handle what I want completely. I have a VPN app, but another to remote into my server. I could use just the last app, but it doesn’t automatically switch to fastest VPN, so I have to use a 2nd. I have 4 file managers because Google likes to kill access to root areas, so they all go in and out of functionally.

    Long story short, multiply the number of apps you have times 6 for how many of each type I tend to have, and that’ll be more accurate. But either way, yes, it’s stupid. And I HATE wiping my phone because it usually takes about 2 days just to restore everything (even using rooted Swift backup).













  • If you use it on the surface, you won’t have any problems (if it’s diluted). It’s something that’s sold for this exact thing. Otherwise, a quick Google would tell you if there are any problems. I’m just trying to help with the mold/fungal part since that might be a little more tricky to understand.

    My only hesitation is if it gets under the paper. It still should be fine, but I don’t want to say yes when I’m not 100% sure (it’s a scientist thing).

    The pure bleach… Well, I’d test that first on a small piece of drywall if you have any laying around. Put a little on, let it sit for a minute, wipe it off with water a couple times and see how it looks in a day or two. In a different spot, put some on for 5 min and do the same thing.
