  • Oh, Samsung has a files app. I just assumed all vendors provide one. I dont consider this third party though.
    I guess it would be similar if you used GNOME and it didnt come with the app ‘Files’. Linux isnt a desktop so there wouldnt be any system app for files either, just the CLI. Does stock Android provide a system files app? I cant find it.


  • If you think about it, its always a separate app. WIndows Explorer is an app and so is Dolphin on KDE. ls is an app.
    Android just has a bit of an identity problem with how to present files. Considering its made for the most common denominator, and everything revolves around ‘apps’ now, the concept of files, what they are and what they do is new to many. Most people wont even consider the photo they took is a file. Its a photo, not a file, what are you talking about?. So I’m not surprised the representation of files is on the lower priority list.
    I’m old school, I want to know where everything is in the file system and this part of android messes with me.






  • So I tried to apply Hegelian dialectic to this. Either style is the thesis and the opposite style is the antithesis. There’s something about each style that isn’t appealing to each generation and so they move away from it. There’s a lack of synthesis so we never move past these two styles and never create a new one. We are locked in the vicious cycle. This suggests something inhuman is interfering with the process.



  • Here it boils down to:

    • Network power (fixed fee based on your max power needs, depends on time as well, can be 3.6€ / kw in winter months)
    • Network energy transfer (fee for energy transfered, here its about 0.018€/kwh)
    • Energy (fee on the energy used, about 0.146€/kwh right now)
    • VAT
    • some bullshit for maintenance and running an open market portal for companies to buy/sell energy (like 1-3€)
