I wouldn't call this a "smart workaround". I mean, I can hardly blame the opportunistic fucks for doing it this way, and certainly the original sin in Apple's licensing/certification bullshit, but it's just an amazingly stupid way of doing this all around, brought about by both Apple's and the earbud manufacturers' greed.

I mean, both are problems.

You don't even need root, or at least you didn't when I had mine. You just need to turn on developer mode, and then the Fire Toolkit app can do the rest.

Must be doing something right.

Nice. Mine is an opera director.

I share a name with someone who is obscure enough to not come up in many conversations, but famous enough that he monopolizes the Google results for my name.

I quite enjoy the relative anonymity.

I'm increasingly glad I got the fuck out of there.

For Lemmy on Android, I'm using Eternity, which is a fork of the Reddit client Infinity.

5 years of OS updates is more than you get from any other Android manufacturer. For everyone else in the space, you are lucky to get 3.

Honestly, just pick up any USB barcode scanner, open a spreadsheet up in Excel or Google Sheets, and go to town. It will go pretty quickly.
