That's GoodTimesWithScar, a gaming youtuber primarily playing Minecraft. He's part of the Hermitcraft SMP and his shirt in this photo reads "MC Championship" (MC being short for Minecraft)

From his Twitch Q&A:

Q: Why do you have the tubes in your nose? A: I have to use oxygen at times to help me breathe better.

Q: Why are you sick? A: I have a Neuromuscular disease that makes my muscles weak.

As a German, I often find the French protests inspiring. They seem enthusiastic and convinced that they can make a difference, whereas in Germany many people use their perceived insignificance as an excuse for why it’s pointless to even try.

Congrats! I'm glad I never started using it, cause while it hasn't been easy I think it's likely much harder to get off of it. So good job!

I'm not happy. Are you?

The new requirements will "only" apply for "certified" Android devices. I'm pretty sure, devices running a custom ROM aren't certified, especially if you don't even have Google Services installed. Nevertheless, I'm looking forward to a bright future for Linux phones.

We could have had Habeck, but germany was too stupid.

A fellow Sarah Bosetti enjoyer? ;)

Really? That's interesting, because I've never noticed burn-in on any of my OLED phones, even though I did use them for many years each. But then again, I've always wondered why seemingly nobody talks about burn-in on phones, while there is a lot of fuzz being made around it on computer monitors.

That's how I feel about most Microsoft products actually.

Da heißt das Gesöff dann Rüscherl.

Exactly the same at my job. And it really shows in the code quality, or lack thereof. And then sometimes they wonder why it becomes more and more complicated to add new things. But most of the time they just think that it's perfectly normal that way and are completely oblivious to all the ways it could be improved. I once talked to my boss about it and he basically replied with "Well you know, there just isn't a code style that everybody likes, so there's no reason to even try."

I don't know which stores exactly are listed there. But at least with some shady key resellers, piracy might actually be better than buying from them according to some indie devs: https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-48908726

OMG, thank you! Until now I thought I was the only person to be fucking annoyed by this shit.

Does anybody have experience with the apps Neo Backup, DataBackup or ideally both?

I would like to know if there are any differences in terms of functionality, capability or reliability? Like, is there some kind of app data, that one can backup/restore while the other can't? Are there speed differences in the backup/restore process? etc.

I've searched the internet for some comparisons but couldn't find much.

For context: I want to transfer all my apps to a new phone. In the past, I've used Titanium Backup for this, but it doesn't seem to be very up-to-date anymore. Now, Neo Backup and Data Backup seem to be the most promising (besides maybe SwiftBackup, but that's not open source and only available through the Play Store, it seems). So now I could of course just use one app first, backup everything on my old phone, restore everything on the new one and then look through all the apps to see what worked and what didn't. But it would be easier if I could get a hint on which one might be more suitable for my needs :)

Also, if you would recommend to use another app instead, please tell me!

Thank you all!
