For the record, if the software updates stopped where they’re at today, I’d be fine with how the car functions until the end of its life. In fact, I kinda wish they’d just leave things alone at this point because I don’t want any extra features out of the thing.

And therein lies the rub, you don’t get to choose, the corpo does and you have to trust them (you do trust them, don’t you?). Pretty much like you’re renting, not owning. As the article points out this is similar to phone ‘ownership’, hopefully in the fullness of time there will be a GrapheneOS equivalent for cars…

“Man will never be free until the last politician (mayhap capitalist) is hung with the entrails of the last lawyer.”

Eh, Syncthing-Fork is basically feature complete, it’s not even a significant exploit threat (on gOS and constrained to local network and storage spaces in my case, but probably in general). I just pinned it at v2.0.11.2 in F-Droid and will wait for things to shake out. If things go badly there’ll be a Syncthing-Fork-Fork, it’s too critical to too many peoples workflows.

Sidepanels as per u/mirasu, but with magnets for easy access. Pretty sure those corner braces are zinc plated steel so it should be a breeze (especially if you use mesh). You could even cut it down shorter and put on a top (can always use linear joiners later if you need more in the future, love extrusion, bloody industrial meccano! ) and make it really slick.

That said, it’s great as is.

Zeroth, consider GrapheneOS on that Pixel.

First, Syncthing on the PC and Syncthing-Fork. Now you can sync (and anything else) your photo files from phone to PC and vice versa. Congrats, you have photo storage backup.

Second, either a vpn to your home network so you can backup on the road, or Immich (as elsewhere suggested) for your own google photos experience.

Third, whichever of second you didn’t choose.

Fourth, get ye an offsite backup (search 3-2-1 backup). rclone is your friend, but encrypt first locally with Cryptomator, then you don’t have to trust your storage provider.

What are the odds SAltman and the circular investment crew are pivoting to a pump and dump scheme on server hardware (as well as just GPGPUs) after finally admitting to themselves LLMs have hit a wall not even trillions of dollars will fix (architecture failure, no AGI for you, no getting away from those pesky workers like promised). If everything pans out nicely the world will end up with a bunch of new chip fabs (a real bottleneck) and nothing to use them for, cheap computers for all. Probably won’t, instead we’ll get a geopolitical shitshow as China (and hopefully Europe) will have functional, actually producing valuable stuff, economies. What happens to the US is left as an exercise for the reader.

Shes all switched to linux, and if her trial goes well and i don’t end up tearing my hair out doing tech support. I may switch over as well, probably a different distro though.
That’s an interesting approach, I usually experiment on stuff myself before making others switch, makes me more comfortable on the stuff and more confident that I’ll be able to solve their issues.

Yeah, that was the standout for me too. You’re on winblows and might switch later, but are going to support her, way to treat the gf as a lab rat…

English Folk Verse (c.1870)

        The Fifth of November  

Remember, remember!  
The fifth of November,  
The Gunpowder treason and plot;  
I know of no reason  
Why the Gunpowder treason  
Should ever be forgot!  
Guy Fawkes and his companions  
Did the scheme contrive,  
To blow the King and Parliament  
All up alive.  
Threescore barrels, laid below,  
To prove old England's overthrow.  
But, by God's providence, him they catch,  
With a dark lantern, lighting a match!  
A stick and a stake  
For King James's sake!  
If you won't give me one,  
I'll take two,  
The better for me,  
And the worse for you.  
A rope, a rope, to hang the Pope,  
A penn'orth of cheese to choke him,  
A pint of beer to wash it down,  
And a jolly good fire to burn him.  
Holloa, boys! holloa, boys! make the bells ring!  
Holloa, boys! holloa boys! God save the King!  
Hip, hip, hooor-r-r-ray! 

Guy Fawkes Day is the Fifth of November, when the English (used to, wouldn’t be surprised if it’s banned now) let off lots of fireworks to remind the government of the peoples power, or vice versa depending on your proclivities.

More recently the comic (Alan Moore, knows the score) and the movie ‘V for Vendetta’ both featured the
Remember, remember!
The fifth of November,
The Gunpowder treason and plot;
I know of no reason
Why the Gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot!
as a significant thematic refrain. Both are well worth your time. The mask on the left is from the movie, and also used as a symbol by the cyberactivist group ‘Anonymous’

needs more jpeg…

but that probably helps.

So, sandbox the extensions, a practical, sensible step on the path to browser as OS (contentious, but doesn’t that seem where things are going, and if we lose firefox…). I get it, it’s mr right now harm minimization, as opposed to mr right (linux or flatpak) general purpose computers in service of their users with usable security control.

Also white and yes they’re sweethearts but very independent dogs, like half cat dogs.

Just an Afghan Hound being goofy, they have two modes, aloof and noble, and silly goofy…

I’ll assume it’s cool, but currently hugged to death for me. Just wanted to point out batteries are replaceable even if glued, fixed my GrapheneOS Pixel7 after it killed itself (spicy pillow) charging in heat in a warmer country. iFixit kit + video worked, then got a Chargie which lets you set a temperature above which it will not charge (33C for me, only charges at night in summer). Probably relevant in your case.

You can alter the chemistry of plastics so that you end up with microplastics in your food if you go above certain temps with most plastics.

If you think that’s going to save you look harder, or just go back to ceramics like sane people. Your vasty majority is likely coming from textiles and tires, in the water and air respectively.

I would have had to sand it down to get rid of it.

And now you have two, or one to give away…

What is the usecase for exposing jellyfin to the outernet anyway ?

Yah, just a tad on the nose.

“Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence” (a.k.a., the Sagan standard)

ROCm works just fine on consumer cards for inferencing and is competetive or superior in $/Token/s and beats NVIDIA power consumption. ROCm 7.0 seems to be giving >2x uplift on consumer cards over 6.9, so that’s lovely. Haven’t tried 7 myself yet, waiting for the dust to settle, but I have no issues with image gen, text gen, image tagging, video scanning etc using containers and distroboxes on Bazzite with a 7800XT.

Bleeding edge and research tends to be CUDA, but mainstream use cases are getting ported reasonably quickly. TLDR unless you’re training or researching (unlikely on consumer cards) AMD is fine and performant, plus you get stable linux and great gaming.

podlet does a pretty good job of spitting out quadlet .container files or entire pods from a dockerfile.
