It allows to launch exported activities from various apps and helps to create useful shortcuts

2 examples where I find it to be quite useful:
1. Quick Record shortcut for Audio Recorder

It currently does not have a quick recording shortcut.
Audio Recorder Gitlab issue where a user requests the feature. Maybe attention from someone here would be helpful?

You can directy search for the app in Activity manager, open it and create a a shortcut for the Recording activity.

2. Shortcut to open Android/data folder in the native Files app

Context for the folder location I use hereFor Android 11 & onwards, you can't access the Android/data folder(without root) from regular file manager apps like Material files(awesome opensource file manager).
The Telegram X app stores it's downloaded files in a folder there.
Material files calls the native Android Files(not GFiles, documentsui.files) app to open the Android/data folder.
Activity manager can be used to create a shortcut for that

  1. Search for and open the Files app in Activity Manager and choose the Launch with parameters option for the FilesActivity
  2. Action, choose ACTION_VIEW
  3. Data = content://com.android.externalstorage.documents/document/primary%3AAndroid%2Fdata%2Forg.thunderdog.challegram%2Ffiles%2Fdocuments or any other directory you like
  4. Mime type, choose vnd.android.document/directory

You can then launch the activity with the parameter.
This will be recorded in History(the clock sign). You can long-press the entry and create a Shortcut.


Do you have any other cases or ideas where this would be usedul? Please do share them here.


On a tangent, Material files allows making shortcuts to files and folders. Markor, text editor app, allows the same too.

Basically the title. I click a link and it takes forever to open. Doesn't matter the type of link. If I click a link multiple times then eventually N pages open all at once

Ibis is a federated encyclopedia which uses the ActivityPub protocol, just like Mastodon or Lemmy. Users can read and edit articles seamlessly across different instances. Federation ensures that articles get mirrored across many servers, and can be read even if the original instance goes down. The software is written in Rust and uses the cutting-edge Leptos framework based on Webassembly. Ibis is fully open source under the AGPL license, to make future enshittification impossible.

Checkout !ibis@lemmy.ml for more updates and discussions.

My laptop is (maybe was) Linux and Windows 10 dual booted. I was reinstalling the Linux OS and in the process I accidentally formatted the Windows 10 boot partition. At least I think it is the boot partition because I don't really know how Windows works (or doesn't work amirite).

This is the lsblk output:

$ lsblk -f
NAME        FSTYPE     FSVER LABEL [...] MOUNTPOINTS
nvme1n1     zfs_member 5000  zroot [...]
├─nvme1n1p1 vfat       FAT32       [...] /boot/efi
├─nvme1n1p2 swap       1           [...] [SWAP]
└─nvme1n1p3 zfs_member 5000  zroot [...]
nvme0n1
├─nvme0n1p1
└─nvme0n1p2 ntfs

The nvme0n1p1 is the one related to booting. I accidentally formatted it.

I have a Windows 10 USB prepared. I tried looking online and I never found a question asking exactly for this. The ones I found that were similar enough suggested different commands.

Anyone has experience with this?

Thanks in advance.

Maksudku bukan seperti neraka atau kehampaan, tapi seperti apa jadinya masa depan setelah aku mati. Bagaimana kalau di masa depan ada film bagus tapi aku nggak ada, bagaimana kalau Indonesia jadi negara superpower dan aku nggak ada.

Rasanya saya penasaran akhir dari manusia itu bagaimana.
