Many of us have been saying the ADL is shit for decades now.

So glad I’ve been de-googling for the last couple years.

Stay out of my data, Google.

Now that I’ve moved to a custom rom, it’s just a few months before I disconnect the final few things from my Google account.

While I despise all these hackers these days, I feel like these companies deserve it, for their utterly non-existent data handling protocols.

You’d get those kinds of attic temps in many places in the US.

Attics are no place to store stuff, keeping them under 140f in the summer is a challenge

Cell tracking is external to the phone. It’s done by the towers - they know signal strength, and by using known tables of that data, cell providers know pretty accurately where your phone is.

To block this you’d need a device that lacks any cellular technology whatsoever. Wifi only.

And that has the same issues, especially with companies like Comcast/Xfiniti using their cable modems to track all the devices around them, even if you don’t connect to them.

Texting uses http over the data channel for MMS.

Config Jellyfin to run as a service when you install.

https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/installation/windows/

Windows supports this.

I’m pretty sure I read a post years ago about how to run Jellyfin as a service (I think it’s even documented on the website).

It already runs as a headless service that you access via a browser, so you just have to configure an actual Windows Service.

I just checked - installing as a service is part of the installer, right on the Jellyfin website.

Meh, no one should be on Facebook.

Too many people say nothing when it’s mentioned, so tacit approval is assumed.

I’ve blocked sites like Twitter and FB, etc, on all my devices and networks. My friends and family still send me links, after I’ve repeatedly told them my devices can’t go to those websites (I’ve never once in my life been on either one).

So I think it’s appropriate to point out using FB is as problematic as Reddit (worse actually. It needs to be continually said.

FB had the Cambridge Analytica scandal that exposed how bad it is, and people still use it 🤦🏼‍♂️. They had tracking pixels for years, and whole I’ve never even visited the FB website, those bastards have a profile on me.

So no, fuck FB.

My favorite is being provided a solution but with absolutely no context or how the solution addresses the root cause.

Everybody in my team gets to own something. What you own depends on your capability.

This is a point I try to constantly make when people don’t understand why 2 people have the same title but don’t really have the same job, especially in technical fields.

No two people have the same set of skills, so we all end up taking on the tasks we’re more capable of than the next person.

Hey, hey now, no kink shaming found here! 🤣

Snikket seems to be it for iOS. But it does work pretty well, I haven’t run into any issues with it.

For Windows well, nothing does voice as far as I know.

Tailscale has the Funnel feature, which can funnel traffic into your Tailscale net for you.

There was a really good explanation by a rando about how it happened. Seems a dev made a mistake when publishing a change.

Apparently bitwarden immediately changed internal procedure for publishing changes.

Isn’t the pixel intended to serve as a model/benchmark Android phone?

That’s what the Nexus was.

I suspect for Google it’s about demonstrating what Android can do, so more about marketing than direct profit.

Ubiquiti?

You can’t give me that garbage. I despise it, after setting up a single access point (plus also watching friends deal with it at client sites).

Besides the discovery issues and slow performance when trying to manage it, I had a random open network on it after setup. This network didn’t appear anywhere in the control panel. I could turn off the access point and the network disappeared.

It didn’t show up in the guest network config (which was turned off anyway). It had the same name as the WPA-protected network, it was just open - no security at all.

I had to reset the access point to get rid of this weird random open network.

What kind of garbage product does that?

Now let’s look at cloud keys. One has a hard drive in it. Just one drive, 3.5", which besides storing data also stores the OS. What? Why is the OS not on some firmware or at least an M2, since the drive is really for storing surveillance data (did I mention it’s a single drive?), what a joke. Why would I bother with such an expensive device that has zero fault tolerance, when I could simply buy a cheaper real machine, run multiple drives, and host the software there?

I lack the vocabulary to describe how bad Unifi is.

Lol, it’s a freakin’ “dance step”. “Notorious gang sign”, only to the tiny world of gang morons. The rest of us 350 million in the US, and the other 4 billion outside the US have no idea.

Tempest in a teapot.
