So far, the only solutions seem to be disabling background data, and deleting the app altogether.
Or getting a lawyer.
I had this happen to me a while back. Remember that update that used to fail and retry continuously? I had mobile data turned off globally and it still used it. I suspect there's a backdoor "just for testing" that all the devs are all told not to use in actual shipping code but there's always one who doesn't listen.
I haven't been that guy, but I've cleaned up after him more than once.
Does he pull the long hours because he's actually crap and instead of doing things once and doing them right wears out ctrl-c and ctrl-v duplicating lumps of code everywhere? And then when he needs to make a change he has to do it in 79 places and he misses one and muffs two others...
Or does doing the long hours tire him out so that he doesn't actually think about what he's doing?

I'll call you out for being a liar, an aspie or having appalling reading comprehension.
You can choose more than one if you like.
It is if they don't get caught.

I'm sure he checked the membership rosters and calculated the turnover rate, twice.
If he says they're the same people, that's good enough for me!
Foldable laptop displays have been around for twenty years. I had one.
The tricky part is making them work again once they're unfolded.
Well either there are two people with that name or one of us doesn't know what dyslexia is.
P.S. I'll see your Brian Cox (fnarr fnarr) and raise you Hannah Fry gazing wistfully into the distance... though I can sort of put up with that.
You misspelled ''shite''.
I suspect it's empty.
It probably won't stay up long enough for that to be significant.
I know. A fucking pop star who did that song that New Labour used.
And don't get me started about Sky At Night. The new presenter is a black woman who can't read!
Froth froth dumbing down froth froth green ink froth froth political correctness gone mad froth froth Belgians.
You left out the thing that the Saudi owns.
They certainly lack the engineering talent to create a decent browser.

... it might not.
Does anyone else read "YouTuber" and think of potatoes?
I rather doubt that.
Go away, Lennart.
Why the scare quotes, you prick?

Maybe it's a pencil?
Was version 6 utterly shite, or can't they even count?
Shiiiit!
What?
I dropped the keys!
If it's not driven by the wheels it's just a low flying aeroplane.
P.S. A story about a financially infeasible car - where's Rei?
