Ubuntu cinnamon user for the last year and a half love it. As for phones I have an s22 but I'm tired of all the bullshit bloatware that comes on it. Like I cannot fully uninstall Facebook on this thing without knowledge of how to use adb. And if uninstall something samsung deems critical, it could break half the features on the phone.
So with apple being shit and me not really liking samsung recently, what Android phones are good? I'm eyeing Lenovo since they make solid laptops but are they any better?
This comment just gave me ptsd due to a shitty keyboard I had growing up, they decided to put the sleep button (is that even still a thing? 👴) right next to the delete key I hit that thing on accident so many times :(
I'm curious as to what led people to believe otherwise before this update. I don't use chrome but I recall it always being reffered to as porn mode. Meaning it just doesn't save browsing history, no more no less.
Did Google have misleading wording implying it was doing anything else?
Does this legal reckoning mean that they will be forced to be in the a $84.9B a year business instead? Or will we finally reach a time when companies will be held accountable for the things they do?
Even when you plan ahead on a road trip there's a pretty high chance half the chargers are down and there's a queue of cars waiting. Made it to the next stop on my last trip with 4 miles to spare. That was a nerve-wracking drive.
Now I gotta check plug share to see recent reviews on stations and decide whether or not to take my ev.
Just throwing out an option if you aren't aware, gohardrives on ebay and on their site sell used Hdds. 10Tb for $80. The catch is they've been used in data centers for 5 years. The company will guarantee the drives for an addition 5 years and it could save you a lot of money depending on how much you want to risk it. I went with 3, one being a parity drive in case other goes bad.
Openstreetmaps let's you write some insanely precise queries. There's a company around that had as a plan to team up with governments to pinpoint mass shooters when they were streaming (as a usage case).
So say in the video it was clear they were in X city and they see things in the video like McDonald's, Starbucks, fenced in playgrounds, churches, what have you you can give the query a bounding box with all that info and very quickly narrow down where the video could be taken.
I think there was also some people who would pinpoint images from mountain outlines as a game. Kind of like geoguessr on steroids.
I use it to manage my subdomains, something like notes.mywebsite.com would point at my trillium instance while photos.mywebsite.com would point at my my immich container it has more uses but that's my extent. I just have an instance of a cloud flare dns updater keeping my domain in sync with my ip so I don't have to do that manually when it changes.
So in my scenario cloud flare is just part of my setup.
I wish I could've like next cloud more, but it seemed bloated as all hell and was slow regardless of what machine I tried running it on :(. I might give it another go one day.
If it's a static site, you can host that anywhere for free on the big cloud providers, aws has s3 storage, Microsoft has blobs, github has pages, all which can be configured to run a site well under the paid tiers.
