It’s the apps that prevent themselves being sideloaded. Presumably, their devs will enact similar policy on EU iOS too.

And hours of The Office, presumably.
as in “are you seeing what I’m seeing”?
What do you mean? There is a lot of memes featuring Jim Halpert and I don’t know which one we’re talking about.
They cannot just make a passive, universal device that presses places on the touchscreen, as Nintendo has filed a patent for a Game Boy case for phones, likely without actual interest in making this cheap hardware device themselves.
It was advertised as “2 TB (64 GB Extended)” at a local clearance sale (not AliExpress), which was basically correct though I would prefer “64 GB but misprogrammed so everything can get corrupted at any time”. When buying it, I didn’t yet know if I could reprogram the chip but the low price was justified for the pretty aluminum case with a USB-C port and place for a custom PCB. I decided to buy it also to prevent another, less technical person from using it and losing their data. The store was getting rid of inventory for very cheap and would close soon so no more fake drives would be ordered.
Well, depends on how much you’re OK with some problems. I knowingly bought a “2 TB (64 GB Extended)” flash drive, tested its sectors and reprogrammed it to 32-in-64-GB for wear leveling and bad sector avoidance because it was still a cheap 32GB USB drive. I made sure to label it for “non-critical use” such as movies.
As for camping lanterns, ones charged from mains might have a nasty habit of shocking their users. (The YouTube channel contains a huge number of cheap Chinese charger teardowns and most don’t meet safety criteria. Usually, there is just 1 or 2 layers of thin tape between mains and the output you can touch.)
Sometimes, counterfeits or unknown brands are so similar to the real deal that it barely matters. I’d say that basic electronics (alarm clocks, kitchen scales, calculators, SD security cams) or even RAM is fine. With appropriate expectations, parts like video or USB cables, hubs etc., small home improvement items (hooks, screws) are fine too. Avoid categories where a lot of items have fake specs (storage devices, LED bulbs, anything that claims a runtime on a Li-Ion battery). Power electronics (especially if using mains or non-tiny Li-Ion batteries) can be downright dangerous. For novelty items and electronics modules, it’s usually easy to find text or video reviews on other websites because they’re easy to uniquely describe. Remember to consider ways in which the product can be utter crap despite high reviews citing good first impressions; it also helps to have practical knowledge of testing the properties of the items and fixing common issues.
Well, dojít also means “come to” as in “understand” or “deduce”, besides the usual meaning of “finish walking”. However, dojetí is the gerund-like form of either the verb dojet (“come to”/“arrive” but not on foot but by a land vehicle; though dojezd or příjezd is used more often) or way more commonly the verb dojmout se (“get moved [emotionally]”).
The most accurate translation of the song title would be “[I Am] Afraid To Get Emotional” but “Resisting Being Moved/Touched”, close to what Google came up with, is the best if syllable count needs to be preserved.
An old Czech song just played on the radio…
Well, then you’re going to hear
most of the time, much like Spotify.
(Last time I was in a Spotify-“enhanced” waiting room was 6 years ago so no idea if that still holds.)
He absolutely nailed it, actually. The fact that you posted it speaks to the success of the viral marketing campaign.
In the Czech Republic, a surprising number of yoghurt ads feature an animated skateboarding cow.

You just described the Czech pub stereotype in a nutshell. They love complaining and arguing and do it for sport, but when somebody disagrees with their worldview on a substantial level, they won’t get invited to the table at all.
Does this pub behavior extend to ActivityPub? Maybe…
Woah, another Czech Lemmy user! @pmjv@lemmy.sdf.org @subarctictundra@lemmy.world There’s like 4 of us!
Well, honestly the administration is more than a single person, which is why the other points raised by @DandomRude@lemmy.world are important.
Too bad a hundred million people are still too detached from reality to acknowledge this. The unfucking of America will take at least the better part of a century.
The sad thing is, he will end up winning more than 20 states despite this.
I installed FakeStore and set the app’s
installed_by
* property from Package Manager to FakeStore (com.android.vending
, the same as Google Play Store), which was enough to fool the public transport app I’m using. Is this the workaround you’re talking about, or does it require MicroG too?* Not what it’s actually called, can’t remember that
