My grandma uses WhatsApp. The only reason I’ve ever used SMS is to receive a verification code

That isn’t what normalized means in the context of databases.

Also databases store the same data many times over often. For redundancy and load-balancing purposes. Really, federation just takes care of replication somewhat.

I have a ThinkCentre m90q with an i3. It’s a few years old. It’s a lot more powerful than a Pi. A Pi will not cut it.

You will preferably need something with modern hardware encoding. Support for h265 and AV1 is a requirement nowadays to play high quality sources and find anything for newer stuff. Moreso if you want to watch 4k content.

I live in the Netherlands too, but I’m certain this was an online service from the US. It’s definitely a minority of them but it happens nonetheless

Apple is willfully hampering the ability to intercommunicate between iPhones and Androids

In what way exactly? All the messaging apps I use work fine. I even have the same Signal account logged in through both my Android phone and my iPad.

Nobody I know actually uses iMessage either. It’s a complete non-issue as SMS is quite an outdated technology.

Yep just delete the account while you’re at it. If it’s for work just don’t use it on a personal device

My device always shows the WiFi number. It’s nice to know since I live in an apartment building with shared wifi. The shared wifi is 4/5 and mine is 6 so I can see at a glance if I’m connected right.

I can’t imagine another reason it’d be useful though.

Caddy Reverse Proxy with Basic Auth for services which are critical like my 3d printer. Without auth for other services like my website or jellyfin and such. I use docker for everything so that’s another layer of safety for me.

I have port 443 open and use subdomains for most stuff. Some other ports for non-HTTP services but I don’t have any right now.

that service will keep working until the next billing day

You wish. I have had one too many services that cancel immediately upon request, even if you paid for the month 3 days ago.

Could you elaborate? I’ve never heard of that. Although I don’t donate to Wikipedia now.

At that point just use ‘man grep’.

Yeah so? They made those themselves.

Yeah that’s what I have too. One of my servers is exposed with key auth and I just tunnel to other servers from there. A few MB egress is nothing compared with the amount of spam my webserver needs to deal with

Facilitating Piracy no matter how you put it is wrong and illegal, it is wrong and illegal to support people who do it.

I love how some people assume that everyone agrees on the ethics of piracy

I’ve started moving over some of my services from Google to Proton now. Using my own domain so a switch in the future is as simple to do as changing the DNS. It’s something I can recommend everyone.

Too bad I can’t get my work to switch from Google.

Samsung’s quick settings is okay, I should’ve clarified. I just think the rest of their UI sucks ass

I have used it in the past for a few years. I don’t think you should. Why?

• The Manjaro devs are idiots. They have broken the AUR on multiple occasions.
• Their packages break more often than upstream Arch since you get update bundles which they release. This isn’t tested as well as it should and may lead to things breaking.
• Arch is also easier to install nowadays, if you really want a rolling release distro.

If you just want something not-Ubuntu and easy to use, I tend to favor Fedora personally.

I think Samsung has done an awful job on their UI. I can’t place why, I just hate it.

I think OnePlus has done really well, keeping close to stock Android but improving on it too.

I have already seen bots that are moving complete reddit subs to their respective communities. It’s really annoying, because there’s no actual engagement whatsoever

69% on my network alone. More once I turn ublock origin on :)
