Well then you still haven’t got rid of it 🙂

Well, this is the point. Eradication may ne unachievable but that doesn’t mean we have to stop breaking the chains. Its like saying Israel wants to wipe out Palestine and the rest of the world just watches (which is exactly what is happening unfortunately). We are surrounding our lives to those with power and money. As humanity, we need to find some lost dignity. We need to defend human dignity, and that comprises the right to privacy.

Sureley google pay/Apple pay IS eventi worse

Interesting discussion going on here 🙂 sounds like this is pretty new and as I had suspected doesn’t seem to be well documented. If its just another Tuta, I wonder why they think they’ll be better at succeeding where others haven’t.

It used to be a breaze with linux, mozilla and AirVPN up till a few years ago. Now, it’s almost impossible to navigate the web, use public authority websites without having to disable VPN and all the privacy focused plugins of Mozilla. It makes you realise how invasive the internet has become. Even for people in this group that are above average aware of privacy risks, its just so hard. The internet would have to be redesigned by privacy conscious people but that will never happen as big tech would see their interests at risk and would strongly oppose. How do you get people to switch to Simple X Chat when I struggle to get them to use Signal.

Looks interesting but I couldn’t find anything on the android app. There isn’t any “Monica” on f-droid either.

Bangle.JS seems interesting and more capable than Watchy. But guess the latter’s battery lasts longer because of sink screen?

You nave opened a new world vere. I had no idea that these no code solutions were not available. Sounds very interesting.

They are mostly cash. On average 5-10/day over a 5 hrs day.

Ah right. Docker seems to have gained more ground than LXC if its the first time I come across it. I hadn’t realised they were similar, especially after I discovered that people are running docker in LXC …

What i read here is concerning. Non that i was getting into the swing of drocker … :-( Is LXC the future then?

Ok, I hadn’t realised that the helper script installs docker. I thought LXC was an alternative to docker.

Regarding the VM option, I did think of doing just that but read a lot about it using too many resources with frigate and LXC seems to be more efficient option when it comes to resources

OK, I should have been clearer. With “community LXC repository on github” I actually meant that I used the LXC scripts. It did go through a few questions at the start but nothing relating to storage and camera setup.

That is brilliant. Thanks. I haven’t read this all yet looks like what I need.

Immich and Radicale definitely recommended. I’ve still got paperless-ng and plan to move to paperless-ngx as soon as I find the time. I’ve also got firefly-iii which is a big revolution to how I manage personal finance. Even my 17 old son has got into it … He couldn’t understand where all his hard earnings were going.

Looks like I have two options for Proxmox + Frigate:

a) full VM via a QEMU VM that then has Frigate as app container (Frigate website is not recommending this approach from what I understand)

b) Virtual environment (VE) thgrough the “Proxmox Container Toolkit” where Frigate is as a system container (i.e. docker container directly in the Proxmox environment, which eliminates the VM overhead. See here: https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#chapter_pct

Looks like someone has got it up and running in the PCT environment https://www.homeautomationguy.io/blog/running-frigate-on-proxmox

Also, I need to get my hands on a Micro desktop with a PCIe slot so that I can stick the Coral unit in it. Any thoughts for cheap solutions on eBay?

But setting up a VPN on a VPS is not really going to do much for privacy is it? It wouldn’t take much to work out who is renting the VPS and the VPS has no incentive to hold back any info if a they were issued a search warrant.

Feels like it becoming more and more challenging living on the Internet without leaving breadcrumbs all over the place.

Although some appear to not be maintained anymore

Awesome Privacy looks goog. Need to explore.

The problem with many of these apps is that when you go looking for them on fdroid they are not there. Example in the above list is YouTube Revanced.
