  • Radarr now suggests not to use uTorrent

    Jump

  • Yepp, been using it for years. Lots of third party app support and a minimal web interface to add a new 🧲🚢 in a hurry

    Definitely does not have any bells and whistles though, doesn't bother me but is a dealbreaker for some.

  • Upgrading from an ancient version of Home Assistant

    Jump

  • Oh no 😂😂 what version are you on now?

    I remember a looong while ago when I broke my virtualized install by trying to update with too little virtual disk space, had to expand it and manually install the latest core from a shell within the VM. On another occasion the sqlite database completely filled up the virtual disk (I disabled automatic pruning of old data) and that was a pain to export... eventually dumped it into a dedicated MySQL installation and all was well after that.

    I've seen that they now have A/B boot (similar to how Android devices do) so hopefully these are issues of the past

  • Still going 😅 database migration has been running for 21 hours so far lol.

    ![https://images2.imgbox.com/01/e4/lXcuc2ox_o.png](Screenshot of database migration message)

    Everything has gone smoothly so far. Spent two hours looking through all the release notes and have a loooong list of stuff to sort out as soon as it completes 🤞

    Edit: fix spoiler

  • If I land on a site using Admiral AAB I do two things...

    1. update my blocklists with the new AAB servers
    2. return to the search engine and pick another site

    I really, really dislike Admiral AAB. Why would you want to evade a user's adblocker just to ask them to switch it off? I will keep it on thank you very much!

  • Man pages maintenance suspended

    Jump

  • The few times I've needed to man [app name] on a system without internet access or on an obscure utility, I've always been able to find what I need in the included docs

    I hope the dev eventually gets sponsored, this is one of those utilities that you don't think you need until --help doesn't cut it

  • In Leak, Facebook Partner Brags About Listening to Your Phone’s Microphone to Serve Ads for Stuff You Mention

    Jump

  • For anyone who doesn't have a device that natively supports this feature, there's an app on F-Droid called "Privacy Indicators" that provides this for camera and mic access. It uses the built-in Accessibility services to provide this, and needs a couple of other special permissions

    You can change the color of the indicator, mine's red for more visibility.

    I installed it from GitHub however, since the F-Droid build was really outdated: https://github.com/NitishGadangi/Privacy-Indicator-App

  • I use OSMand alongside GMaps WV (a webview for Google Maps, wipes all data automatically after closing). Works well enough for me, but in GMaps you can't rotate the map or provide your location

  • I use "Automation" (on fdroid) - the UX could do with some improving but it thoroughly covers the basics.

    Newer versions of Android make it difficult to automate certain things though, I find root helps to get around that in some cases

  • I was looking for Sleep As Android too!! Separately to this I saw a comment on R a while ago asking for FOSS alternatives, and to say the dev's response was out-of-touch would be an understatement. They just complained about not being able to make a living from a FOSS app...

    Regarding Gadgetbridge though, those devs and contributors are running into more and more accessories using encrypted protocols which is a bit worrying. Right now I've settled on the BangleJS which has official support, just wish it had a more accurate heart rate sensor!

    My dream FOSS health app would be some concoction of OpenScale and Gadgetbridge 😂

  • Participants rated the same text presented in Wikipedia lower than in ChatGPT or Alexa for credibility

    Jump

  • I've seen the redesign too and not really sure how I feel about it 😂 there's a lot of additional whitespace and it kinds looks like a blown up mobile version of the site

  • MPA says no more “Whac-a-Mole” with pirate sites, claims it took down “mothership”

    Jump

  • Those are fake mirrors completely missing aniwave's core features: account watchlists, auto skip intro/outro, auto next, watch together, and the comments don't even work.

    Wouldn't surprise me if they're missing the majority of Aniwave's library too

    Edit: The search is horrifically basic too. No filters at all, seriously? The clones don't even try to compete 🤦‍♂️

  • Some piracy anime streaming websites, such as Aniwave (aka 9anime) shut down.

    Jump

  • Pirate websites like this usually rely on the shadier ad networks baked into these kinds of video streaming sites to make their money.

    There's no financial incentive to use BitTorrent based streaming, and if they did I feel the torrents would die rapidly just due to the amount of leechers with barely any seeders to offset the ratio disparity (Unless some kind of webseed was available ?)

  • This Google Photos popup

    Jump

  • I recently picked up an iPhone as a secondary device, pretty much immediately disabled iCloud and installed Mobius (Syncthing) so the photos get sync'ed over to my fairphone's SD card.

    Now i'm second guessing whether it's actually disabled, or if I'm going to get an iCloud full warning in a couple of months....

  • This Google Photos popup

    Jump

  • I use Open Camera on my device, there are some very rare instances where it shows an obscure error saying it can't find a gallery app. Most of the time though it opens Fossify Gallery just fine

    I'm rooted and Google Photos was removed from my device before a single photo was taken, so never seen or heard even a peep from it

  • Microsoft donates the Mono Project to the Wine team

  • .NET runs natively on Linux

    Only .NET Core sadly

    When I moved my personal laptop to Linux I needed WINE to run some source-available .NET apps that were written targeting the Windows-only .NET Framework

  • Does anyone care to speculate about those 4 addresses blocked by external whitelist when using Nvidia's nvcc for the first time and trying to compile llama.cpp?

    Jump

  • I have to admit I'm not entirely convinced these requests are coming from a compiler...

    Is it possible for you to virtualize an non-networked system with your GPU passed through? That seems like the best option IMO. Next best thing would be to set up an airgapped machine just for this, but not everyone has a 2nd machine.

    Personally when I was trying out local LLMs I used a virtual machine, mainly due to the known code execution vulnerability related to Tensorflow model data being saved in python's Pickle format. I believe the recommended save method changed twice since those days though.

    With the Firefox stuff I'm assuming you've also checked their enterprise config options too (which are admittedly difficult to find and piece together online), so not too sure what else you could do except aside from continuing to block them. Librewolf however provides documentation on how to disable the extra requests sent from their browser in their FAQ, and covers some preferences on the subsequent page linked at the bottom

  • Does anyone care to speculate about those 4 addresses blocked by external whitelist when using Nvidia's nvcc for the first time and trying to compile llama.cpp?

    Jump

  • Nothing concerning for me here personally. However, if you have an issue with Firefox's 'QoL' features dependent on Mozilla infrastructure, you could consider Librewolf instead as an alternative.

    As for the reverse lookup requests, those are targeting local multicast addresses on your internal network, except the last one which is for the Fastly CDN service

  • Microsoft finally officially confirms it's killing Windows Control Panel sometime soon

    Jump

  • And not to mention the custom control panel applets hanging around out there from who-knows-what vendors.

    AMD FirePro and Catalyst users are going to probably stay on an older version of the OS, considering most of those users are going to be educational institutions, engineering workshops, makerspaces/hackerspaces etc.

    Can't think of any other vendor products that integrated quite as much into the legacy control panel area
