lnxw48a1: It's finally happened. For over a decade, seeing a #Windows update (either OS or application) has triggered an "oh, no, what's it going to break?" response. Now, #Android and #iOS do the same thing.

lnxw48a1: I checked #Multiverse on #Android. Same issue. Cannot maintain a connection to a pub, so everything I can see is weeks old. I'll wait another week or two before I completely abandon it. I should write up my experience with the #SSB network. I'd heard so much about this wonder of #DCO (disconnected operation) and #P2P (peer-to-peer) that I think my expectations were too high.

lnxw48a1: On my older #Android devices, disabling Google Play Services was impossible. Or maybe I just remember it wrong. On the new phone, I was able to disable it. Of course, now any time something Google wrote launches, it notifies me that $APP_OR_SERVICE_NAME cannot function unless Google Play Services is enabled. Funny that. Everything works fine. (And I'm accumulating a list of things that are not allowed to notify me.)
