  • Looking for a new distro. Ditching Windows.

    Jump

  • I just recently ditched Windows and installed Kubuntu. I like Ubuntu but wanted KDE Plasma, and that's exactly what this is! Works great for me, including proton gaming with Steam.

  • They'll take your fingerprints when they book you. They'll hold your hand down and force it onto the reader / ink pad if they have to.

  • “Awful”: Roku tests autoplaying ads loading before the home screen

  • Why is your Roku TV even on the Wi-Fi if you just block its internet?

  • Android Self hosting

    Jump

  • It's probably that. While on cellular my IP isn't 192.0.0.4 (but it is in 10. space), but there's probably some v6 somewhere in the way.

  • I can't get it to have network connection while my phone is on cellular data. On wifi it's fine.

  • In case you missed it, LXQt and Xfce both support Wayland now

    Jump

  • KDE Neon and kubuntu have Wayland as default. Just was trying them because I wanted Plasma 6. Took a bit of tweaking for a few things but I have all the things I need running fine with Wayland.

  • I used mostly this, but had to customize it a bit I think to get things working right. NUT feels like a super finicky system, but in the end it does work. My biggest issue right now is that it only reports a new status update to Home Assistant every few minutes, so the actions don't really get a chance to trigger before the server shuts down. It also shuts down with the UPS at way too high of a percentage remaining, so I need to figure out how to make it wait just a little bit longer before the power down. It wants to power off like < 2 minutes after the power goes out...

  • I've got a project to look forward to. Have my Proxmox server with a UPS, running NUT to watch the battery percentage and power down gracefully if the % gets too low. I have Home Assistant watching that so it's supposed to notify me before that happens. It's not notifying me though, so I gotta look into that. I know it's not working this morning because the power went out, so now I'm just sitting here theorizing instead of actually looking at it. 🙃

  • The only way out is... Ugh.

  • Over? Like a over a fence gets you out of it.

  • It's not the 4th amendment to the Florida constitution. It's in slot #4 on the ballot.

  • Google Chrome’s uBlock Origin phaseout has begun

    Jump

  • When I switched to Firefox a while back, I also switched to using the Tree Style Tabs extension. It gives you vertical tabs which can be nested like a folder structure. I found it's way more convenient to know which tab was spawned from a parent tab, and keep similar tabs all in one little grouping. In my opinion, it's even better than Chrome's tab grouping. I lose a tiny amount of screen real estate along the left side of the browser, but it really didn't take long at all to get used to, and now I vastly prefer it.

  • What's a great buy it once Android app?

    Jump

  • I did the same thing with home assistant and just the stock clock app. Just looking at the "next alarm" sensor state.

  • Amazon's system marked an item I returned a year ago as not received and charged me for this return, but the chat bot already knew they had received it.

    Jump

  • Hah! I just recently got to switch off Comcast to a newer local fiber company. Comcast emailed and texted me for weeks telling me to return their equipment that I never had, but even their website showed I had nothing to return so I ignored it. Eventually the emails changed to "you've been charged", so I called to complain. They assured me that I wasn't actually charged, and then realized they owed me a prorated refund since I cancelled in the middle of a billing cycle. They absolutely weren't going to give that back unless I called.

  • Decision time

    Jump

  • I just set my domain email up with Zoho. Was easy enough and they have a free option. Although I pay $1.25/mo per user for two users, just to get a little extra storage space and be able to use SMTP and ActiveSync to send email from my servers for notifications and use a different mobile app than their default one.

  • Yeah I'm with you. Just say ACAB. No sense in obscuring it further than the acronym already does.

  • Majority of Americans now use ad blockers

  • Tracker Control on Android works well for system-wide tracker and ad blocking, and you can configure custom blocking rules per-app. Works without root by using a VPN profile (but no data leaves your device via the VPN, it just routes the traffic through this app).
