Ah, JavaScript…

Why is the 🫣 emoji censored?

Wow, didn’t know this existed. Thanks a lot!

You need a direct line of sight with satellites for GPS to work.

Of course, this is almost impossible indoors. Here’s how network location works to my understanding:

Another person outdoors uses GPS to locate themselves. This person has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth enabled and their device can see your home/office network. Google and Apple save this information to their databases. When you request your location indoors, your device sends Wi-Fi information of nearby access points. The servers know approximate location of this Wi-Fi network and can give you your approximate location, though with a large margin of error.

The thing that help you navigate inside buildings is called “Network Location”.

Google and Apple provide this functionality by collecting Wi-Fi and Bluetooth network data from all their users and creating a massive database.

By default, “Network Location” is disabled in GrapheneOS. If you have Google Play Services installed, you can use Google’s Network Location service by enabling those options.

Fortunately, GrapheneOS provides an alternative using Apple’s network location services. There is an option to use GrapheneOS proxy server instead of connecting directly to Apple. Of course, whether you use this feature should entirely depend on how much you trust GrapheneOS developers. This one works using just Wi-Fi data and I use it daily.

It really bothers me how Immich Android app is not usable without the server

Some devices provide a hardware level interface for it. It is the case for my ThinkPad T14s and the limiting persists even when changing operating systems.

Some other devices don’t, and the limiting only works while the OS is running. That’s how my previous laptop from ASUS was.

Finally getting to play Hollow Knight: Silksong

I don’t think Alan Wake II will ever come to Steam. It is published by Epic Games.

Nope, no chance.

Any alternatives for learning Japanese? I have already learned about 500 words and 20 kanji.

From Merriam-Webster:

especially : widely and unfavorably known

I believe “notorious” is used in negative contexts, and was curious why Switzerland being respectful of privacy would be a bad thing.

Why “notoriously” though?

I love Kdenlive!

Your post is very confusing. Is this meant to be a tutorial?

I think it would fit in [email protected] or [email protected] more.

This is misinformation since both operating systems can gracefully and forcibly shut down processes.

I was recently looking for a decent WiFi 7 router to replace my aging Archer A6. Then, looked up the table of hardware at toh.openwrt.org and almost none of the WiFi 7 routers from mainstream brands was supported. Glad to see something first-party releasing soon. I’ll definitely buy one when it releases.

I bought a Steam Deck with my first paycheck ever, and it was more expensive than my salary. Zero regrets.

Because those are megabytes, not gigabytes
