Thank-you.

We're just waiting. See you soon.

Thank you.

I should start thinking about doing something for Syncthing soon. I'm not sure that this is for me but thanks for the heads up.

I don't find it listed in F-Droid. I have Round Sync (incompatible with my Pixel 7 Pro) and RCX. I entered rclone in the search.

That's just dumb. You couldn't make it up. I guess there was plenty of vocal-fry going on too?

Do you know if it's a corporate dictat thing (so I have to eat my words)?! Anyone with any common sense would just put two of those in to fill the cup up.

Ah. I didn't imply the 'man' in there.

Thank-you.

Don't understand. Check it out where?

Don't fill copy-on-write fs more that about 80%, it really slows down and struggles because new data is written to a new place before the old stuff is returned to the pool. Just sayin'.

I wouldn't worry if you're backed up. The SMART values and daemon will tell you if one is about to die.

Life insurance companies would be changing their terms and conditions.

.. and your reply.

Thank-you for that question ..

I'll have to try it with something meaty.

Thank-you again.

What I meant to imply is that most, if not all, of the pages/sites that I visit, I am logged in to their site for whatever valid reason as we all are. The data collected is directly attributable to me (although, as I said, I give as much false/unattributable info as possible) to make selling it unhelpful.

I've not heard of Andi before. I had been using StartPage (a Google proxy) but Proximity is so good that I've switched. Bad move but what can you do. Google isn't great anymore.

I'll have a look at Andi. What's the underlying search engine(s)?

Thank-you for the recommendation. 😁

Thanks for the dirty ticks reference. That's going to be fun to read! May give me an idea.

Much of my browsing these days is on account-based web pages and apps, so it's unavoidable, but I use addy.io to avoid a single email address and try not to enter any identifying data like full name; and use one-time credit cards. I do what I can to minimise anything resembling a tracking file being on my PC for any length of time if it is downloaded at all (pi-hole, uBlock Origin, cookie autodelete, VPN, i2p, blah blah), but it's a losing battle as we all know.

I'm trying to only interact with LLMs locally, and be generic with my queries for Perplexity (my current fav engine). With LLM being trained on all our data without our agreement, it's a concern.

OpenAI say that they're not making a profit on even their pro plan. You know what they say about free services and being the product.

Greetings to Spain!

To my mind, 'they' are going to get hold of your personal information, habits, pecadillos eventually. I don't have to intentionally make it easy for them.

The lack of engagement by the public at large with the right to privacy; most people seem to have given up, resigned to being completely owned.

Awww. They were both right. Bless.

Rachel is definitely real.
