I’ve been using this happily for a week now. Much easier to configure than I feared!

Sounds like livesync is a decent option, too, if you run a home server like me. But I believe some users have lost data so I’ve stuck with SyncThing-Fork for now. No battery life hit that I can see.

Capy and Read You are both solid Android FreshRSS-compatible reader apps.

Or changing or just adding a system font.

Or setting a charge capacity limit.

Or adding separate quick access tikes for wifi and cellular.

Any routers looking good to you yet? I keep debating building a custom Linux home server box with a beefy wireless card that can double as a home server and NAS. Because very few routers look good to me and I’ve been thinking of upgrading my home server anyway.

Wish the EU would start a lawsuit against them for that. It is blatantly anti-competitive and responsible for the death of so many messaging apps.

But I guess the EU is content with non-interoperable Whatsapp harvesting and gatekeeping the personal communication of almost every citizen. Even worse than Google Messages IMO.

Ah, a history would be nice. I’ve been thinking of keeping some stats to monitor when the connection goes down, and how often my IP changes.

Fortunately I’ve kept the same IP since i changed ISPs a few months ago.

Personally I still think docker is overkill for something that can be done with a bash script. But I also use a Pi 4 as my home server, so I need to be a little more scrupulous of CPU and RAM and storage than most :-)

exactly. I literally have a bash script that calls the API triggered by cron every 30 minutes. That’s it. Are people seriously using a freaking docker container for this?

Do iPhones bypass charge when you set a charging limit (or leave them plugged in at 100%) as well?

Says it all. FF should focus on providing a browser engine competitor to Chrome/Google, not squandering money on rebrands. At 5% (or less?) market share, their core market of tech nerds, and even their near horizon of potential users don’t even respond to this bullshit.

Classic FF android bullshit.

Plenty of time to reorganise a menu that works just fine.

No resources to give us theming add-ons or even a basic OLED black theme. Let alone allow any other UI customisation.

Fortunately I set up unbound ages ago, and disabled every other upstream option in my pi.hole. However, I imagine that still “leaks” some information about my DNS queries, just indirectly – it’s not like my pi.hole has every domain mapped all the time!

Thanks. Wild that folks build SSH and HTTP around the same time without realising that HTTP could benefit from some of that same tech!

Excellent to have confirmation, thanks. What about the VPN connection handshake? I always assumed it was OK over non-SSL, because the exchange should use signed keys. But that is quite an assumption on my part.

I do exactly this as well. Works great! Dynamic DNS is kind of a hilarious hack.

Quick question: since I use wireguard, do I need to use DNS-over-HTTPS for security? My assumption is that my entire session is already encrypted with my wireguard keys, so it doesn’t matter. But I figured I should double check.

Unreliable recharging is why I gave up on Bluetooth headphones, too! Had it happen with four separate pairs of AirPods in my house: OG AirPods, my warranty replacement, and my partner’s AirPods Pro (and their warranty replacement). I find nothing more frustrating than heading out on a run in the morning and discovering that one or both of my buds has near-zero charge, after carefully placing them in a case the previous day.

I’ve been using a pair of Tin T2 Pro IEMs ever since. Almost 5 years with the same IEMs, I think I’ve gone through 4 cable replacements. But the replacement cables were like $5 and the latest $10 one seems likely to last much longer since it’s a nice braided cable.

Of course, I’m stuck on my Pixel 4a to keep the headphone jack. But it works well enough that I honestly have no desire to upgrade. I just wish I could still get OS security updates.

Any themes you specifically recommend? I just use native apps on my phone and laptop, but it would be nice to improve the theme when I administrate.

Raspberry Pi runs their own Connect service, which is free for personal use. Includes remote ssh and vnc sessions through a browser.

If Mozilla really starts to go downhill, what are the chances we get a Linux kernel-style community fork that we can rely on instead? Curious why that hasn’t happened before – perhaps because Mozilla has always toed the line of not-quite-awful enough?

I just hope we can keep an alternative browser engine alive. Would be nice if some rich person would just set up a funding model that can pay a few devs to keep it going indefinitely without ads or spyware.

A couple of years now. I messed around with the Secret Menu settings today and I might have solved it; my guess is that there are some “default” ads cached forever on certain settings.

Weird, I’ve had it disconnected since the factory reset.

Maybe I should connect it, let it load new ads, and then cut it off again?
