you’re able to unsubscribe from all those protomtions . . . that is in settings. Personally, a once-a-month newsletter of everything that is new is helpful bc I don’t need to put in the effort tlinto keeping up
For backup and sync I use Syncthing. I can specify which folder on which devices I want to sync to which folder on the server.
I use a folder based gallery on my phone so when I move stuff around on my phone (or on my server) it gets replicated on all my devices.
I also have a policy to sync specified folders (and subfolder) with my family’s devices. No more " hey can you send me all the pics from the XYZ trip"
We take a trip. Make a subolder for that trip in a shared folder dump all our pictures there, get home and open the folder on the computer and prune together.
Debian has the advantage of not using snapd like Ubuntu does. You have to not only remove snaps but also instruct the package manager not you pull in snaps as dependencies and not to favor snap packages.
I have fond memories of Ubuntu being my first distro many years ago but pushing snaps onto users to compete with flatpak is a nuisance.
he was not, nobody cares about his 2 bytes
Gotcha, thanks. Well, I’ll look into it some more. I appreciate you supporting Rebble!
What is incredible about this product is that I can speak normally and fluently as I normally do.
The need to look at the output as you speak is only necessary if you expect there to be errors. FUTO, amazingly, performs extremely well in this regard and I have a high confidence in not being able to trip it up. I don’t feel that I need to look down at a live transcription.
This whole comment was written using FUTO voice input. I’m definitely going to donate to them.
GrapheneOS is the open source android OS on pixel hardware without any google binary blobs.
The advantage of using it is Google develops and optimizes the OS so it works on their hardware. The GrapheneOS project compiles the source code, hardens some parts, and boom
I’ll try to remember next time I book (I don’t travel so often) but realistically I will not respond to this thread ever again 😅
Edit: Doh, I’m dumb. I can play around with booking when I’m NOT planning to travel and clear cookies and use VPN and it won’t affect my decision to buy 🤦♂️
I take you are a satisfied user. Ages ago when I looked into it, I didn’t see the need. To save time for me and other people on this thread, what value does it bring to you? I would consider subscribing just to financially support them but what other tangible use does a subscription bring?
absolutely. Especially with how dynamically the tickets are priced there is no way to tell.
warning: tangent rant: I really like to shop around and maximize my time off, playing with arrival/departures. It seems if I play around with this for more than an hour, the prices jump up like $50-$100. I’ve started taking screenshots of fares when I start and end and yes, the prices increase. :(
Hey, you go it!
FYI, you can financially support Rebble and get perks like being able to reply with voice to messages. I don’t personally do so but I know people who have had success with it.
For comparison, my Pebble with everything turned off (like health tracking, apps, steps, alarms etc) and only BT on for notifications, I get about a week still
no problem! that’s what the internet and forums are for :D
Rebble was easier to get working than gadget bridge. just something to consider
thank you for that clarification!
Youre right, The 2 port vaults are $176 which is almost double your budget. I figured you could find a used one for cheaper, but I just looked around and you cannot :(
You can check out ODROID. The ARM version for $83 and a x86 version for $129. You can play around with specs and models and get those numbers down lower. Pretty large community playing with them, BSD probably can support them or at least the info is most likely in a forum somewhere.
A step in the right direction but until there are more robust privacy laws in place, this will not go away.
If their gov is restricted on buying from data brokers, are other governments, foreign entities?
The inherit issue is the American’s data can be harvested and sold. Setting up legal restrictions toward certain entities will just cause those entities to “legally self identify” as another entity. Or do business with an entity that is allowed access to American’s data.
check out Protectli Vault. They have different hardware configuration options depending on what you need.
Protectli supports virtually anything you want to slap on it, be it BSD or Linux based. A popular approach is to put Opensense on it (BSD based firewall).
I can vouch for it, quality hardware and silent. Easy to repurposed.
got a link?
wow 10 months flew by since this was posted and since then the United States had a surprise privacy bill that is bipartisan that sort of addresses the issues you and I mentioned. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2024/04/07/congress-privacy-deal-cantwell-rodgers/
This bill was proposed around the same time the TikTok ban was announced. I speculate that law makers had a difficult time framing the arguments against TikTok when “the data of citizens have no protections so there was no easy legal grounds to forbit the likes of TikTok to harvest it”
From what I’ve heard, this bill is pretty good. I need to educate myself more on it, however.
