Got lucky with one from a 3rd party but it doesn't turn off the screen when I close the cover like my old phone case did. I assume that had a chip in it or there's a software setting I've not found.
Samsung was pretty much one of the only manufacturers installing hall sensors under the display to detect the magnets in their flip cases. I think they stopped including that sensor around the time they got rid of the hardware home button. Their latest tablets still do include a case sensor AFAIK, not sure if it's the same hall effect one or something else though.
As a side note I miss those cases with the small window, was pretty cool to be able to just flip the lid, see the time, then stuff the phone away
I use an FP3 personally, on Android 10 at the mo (13 is available, but i'm planning to move to Lineage instead), haven't experienced anything I would describe as a dealbreaker - especially compared to my previous device which was an S5.
On paper it looks rubbish, but compared to my S5 it's night and day. That said, I wouldn't suggest any 'sustainable' device to someone using a mainstream flagship like an S23 etc, as 'sustainable' devices typically always pick older components with the longest service/support life, not the latest and greatest. It's a compromise I am fine with, but people who are very heavy/demanding power users should 100% look somewhere else or just keep using their current device IMO...
Actually, on the topic of FP issues, particularly for the target audience that i is maybe likely to use more FOSS apps on their device, is a bug that mis-clicks after a lengthy amount of time spent in apps that use Jetpack Compose for the UI (like Jerboa and Kvaesitso). I'm not familiar with that tech at all though so this is completely out of my depth. I've only ever noticed fellow FP users complaining about it. The fix is to force kill the app, which can get a little bothersome
That sounds like they're using Admiral's sh!tty brokerage and anti-adblock thing, saw one site with over 1500 partners. Most difficult one to block because of how frequently they buy domains for adblock evasion...
One of these days I'm going to just blacklist the IP ranges of their google cloud fleet
There was this piece on Youtube I watched a while back, where a news company was investigating itself (think it was cnbc or something). They reached out to themselves for a comment, got no response, and included that in the video 🙃
Please don't self-host DNS. It can be exploited and abused in many ways if you don't know what you're doing.
Seconded
One of these is DNS reflection, a type of amplification DDoS I found out about several years ago... You send a tiny packet to a DNS server requesting a domain with long records, but tell the DNS server to send the response to another address. Pretty interesting and amusing imo, but probably not if you're on the receiving end of one lol
this wealth is controlled by a group so small, that they could fit on a single 747 airplane—with 260 seats left over
Honestly ridiculous state of things we have got to, that the majority of wealth in the world is owned by a group of people so small they can't even fill a relatively small 2-aisle airplane
I think whatever meetings you're attending are probably meetings you should start skipping unless they directly impact your role. I'm getting a general sentiment that you feel like they're a waste of time, or some kind of organisational baggage.
Either way, your point on screen sharing is very most certainly unpopular. I personally think it's extremely useful, particularly for cross functional work where either team is completely unfamiliar with the other's chosen collaboration software
Ouch, that must have been a pain to recover from...
I've had almost the opposite experience to yours funnily. Several years ago my HDDs would drop out at random during heavy write loads, after a while I narrowed down the cause to some dodgy SATA power cables, which sadly I could not replace at the time. Due to the hardware issue I could not scrub the filesystem successfully either. However I managed to recover all my data to a separate BTRFS filesystem, using some "restore" utility that was mentioned in the docs, and to the best of my knowledge all the recovered data was intact.
While that past error required a separate filesystem to perform the recovery, my most recent hardware issue with drives dropping out didn't need any recovery at all - after resolving the hardware issue (a loose power connection) BTRFS pretty much fixed itself during a scheduled scrub and spat out all the repairs in dmesg.
I would suggest enabling some kind of monitoring on BTRFS's counters if you haven't, because the fs will do whatever it can to prevent interruption to operations. In my previous two cases, performance was pretty much unaffected, and I only noticed the hardware problems due to the scheduled scrub & balance taking longer or failing.
Don't run a fsck - BTRFS essentially does this to itself during filesystem operations, such as a scrub or a file read. The provided btrfs check tool (fsck) is for the internal B-tree structure specifically AFAIK, and irreversably modifies the filesystem internally in a way that can cause unrecoverable data loss if the user does not know what they are doing. Instead of running fsck, run a scrub - it's an online operation that can be done while the filesystem is still mounted
Thank you for sharing 😁 just migrated my data over from Newpipe x SponsorBlock.
For anyone wondering how to:
In NewPipe x SponsorBlock go to Settings > Content > Export Database, save it, then open Tubular, go to Settings > Content > Import Database, click the ZIP, and it will import all your data from NewPipe (playlists, subs, watched videos, and settings)
It can be upgraded to do multi color, but it wouldn't be as seamless as the Bambu sadly.
From some quick research, while the Sovol SV06 and Ender v3 KE have auto calibration, the Sovol requires you to set the z-offset (just once, in one location) after auto bed levelling has completed. However the Ender v3 KE is fully automatic and does not require any kind of user input after the auto levelling has completed
The printers that run open source Klipper firmware, like the Sovol SV06 and Ender v3 KE, can be customized and controlled through your homelab network out-of-the-box. I'm not too familiar if the same is possible for the Bambu - I'm aware you can control it via their mobile app and slicer software, but you won't have the option of configuring more advanced settings that would be possible on a Klipper-based printer.
I'd suggest something with auto bed levelling at a minimum.
For a "just works" experience, you could consider the Bambulab A1 (not the Mini), although it is a proprietary design and only just exceeds the 500€/$ budget. At an additional cost, you can purchase the "AMS" which allows printing in 4 different colours.
Alternatively there's the Creality ender 3 v3 SE and KE editions which come in at about half your budget. These use a pretty common 3D printer design and it's fairly cheap to get spare parts or upgrades if desired. If going this route, I would personally lean towards the "KE" because it uses the open source Klipper firmware
There are a lot of Ender models available, please be cautious of the older ones and the cheap ones on Amazon as they are not the same thing - most of those have manual bed levelling and hit-or-miss quality control, which can make printing a little bit of a pain out-of-the-box for a beginner IMO...
As for me personally, I got my first 3D printer secondhand for the equivalent of €100 - it's a Delta style printer by FLSun and works great for me, however I did binge hours of 3D printing videos to familiarize myself with things just in-case the used printer arrived broken (thankfully it didn't, it printed fine OOTB!)
I went with the virtual appliance when I installed Home Assistant several years ago, turned out to be a great decision looking at how it's architected. I only self-host the database separately, which i've found easier to manage.
the fact that the storage usage keeps growing
There should be a setting to reduce how long Home Assistant retains data for - I removed the limit on mine, however its possible that on newer versions they've changed the default
Hope you find a solution though - I think node red (capable of doing dashboards on its own) with something else is going to get you part way there.
Before I got into my current lease I went over the whole thing, and the landlord was actually good enough to amend some things I did not like.
I would never, ever consent to having my data sold, especially by someone taking 20-50% of monthly income. They're almost taking you for a ride at that point!
