Most things should work with mainline kernel. According to archwiki the OLED models still need steams kernel patches to get wifi and bt working but older models work fine.

Mainly Because there is no money in doing it.. people who are privacy can just do it themselves and use VPN, most every chat app these days is already e2ee, and data collection is mostly dependent on what apps you use/have installed rather than whos networks your data travels through.

They have some kind of revenue sharing in place but I doubt it pays much seeing as the company is bleeding money and advertisers want nothing to do with it.

There is two editions of them one with digital noise reduction and one without. You probably got the "No DNR" version of 4k80.

I think archive.org has both. the file/torrent name should be the same just with "DNR" instead of "No DNR"

4k77, 4k80, and 4k83 are the names given to the fan attempt to digitize the original 35mm film reel verisons of the star wars trilogy.

Man the sovcits are getting sneakier

Not sure I follow your reasoning here... Having commercial forks isn't necessarily "competition" or if it is it's not always a bad thing. I suppose you could look at something like say Debian as being in "competition” with Ubuntu, but they both promote the underlying linux kernel and benefit from each other's improvements, while one is very much for profit while the other is a very well funded non profit organization.

Namecheap since I have been using them since the 00s and never had any problems.

Isn't that literally what the GPL3 exists to prevent? So called "tivoization"?

You know what would really make stallman smile is if you licensed it under something that requires sharing the source and all modifications.

Also solves the cost problem since you no longer have to support the infrastructure for all users just a small subset. I already host searxng and it's not great but I host it because I support projects that encourage self hosting and we need more free and open source search options

Also how is your product getting used by another company "going to waste" all your work? Maybe you mean take advantage of without paying? But if that's the case and money is such a big deal how is advertising off the table? Unless you're trying to compete with kagi, but you're facing a huge uphill struggle if you plan to monitize and not be open source/self hostable..

If on the other hand you change your mind about it, I'll be one of many self hosting fans who will happily deploy and contribute to improve the project in any way possible. (Currently self hosting searxng here)

That said, even if it's not fully open, really looking forward to seeing the project grow, it sounds like you have your hearts in the right place and we sure do need something better.

According to the researchers, "A charger can be manipulated to control voice assistants via inaudible voice commands, damage devices being charged through overcharging or overheating, and bypass Qi-standard specified foreign-object-detection mechanism to damage valuable items exposed to intense magnetic fields."

So if someone swaps your Qi charger for a malicious one they can ruin your phone (or some other device it's supposed to detect as not a phone ?) and maybe execute arbitrary voice commands... 🥱

DMCA applies to all ISPs in the US, Google will forward notices just like any other isp. In theory they could ban you per terms of service, in practice they probably won't bother.

A VPN is $5 a month, and you'll never have to worry about even getting the notices, but I'm sure you already knew that.

Depends on the timing but Pokedex is clearly itself derivative of rolodex so im not sure that would actually work in Nintendo's favor

PDA was probably the most common during the 90s and I think until iPhones and android, black berry phones were considered PDAs.

A lot of stuff in the 80s/90s used the suffix "dex" (after rolodex) so I could also picture something like "mobidex" or "pocket dex". Or there was netbooks so we might just call them netdex...

That's actually a really good point I hadn't thought of. I still think other data would be more useful, but your example is the first one I'm hearing that maybe could have work if they had no other data to work with

For automatic stuff I use synching to keep my home an documents in sync.

I don't normally use samba remotely but I have a wire guard VPN that I connect to if I'm not at home and that gives me access to samba or any other "local" services I might need when away

I use samba for normal usage and rsync for backups.
