I made an 8 outlet box with relays connected to each outlet (might post a how to). That’s connected to a Pi via GPIO.

The Pi runs PiKVM, but also has a service that:

• Checks if the router can be pinged
• Checks if the internet can be pinged
• Checks if the router webUI is up

If any of those fail, it toggles the plugs for modem and router.

I run OpnSense on a 5V miniPC. I have a second one and will be setting up CARP, too.

Note: Cellular backup is more involved, but a separate Cellular inbound might not be. I’ve considered putting one on the Pi above.

Sure, there are workarounds, but most people aren’t going to jump through all those extra hoops just to use an app.

To @[email protected]’s point, could a phone app be made to :

• Record tower eNBID, signal strength, and GPS coordinates on a regular basis
• If, near a given GPS coordinate, eNBID is now different, or the same with significantly changed strength, alert the user

Theoretically this would allow a device to notify on a new “tower”/etc. Oddly enough I’m going to be around a bunch of telecom people in the coming weeks, so I might ask about this.

The timeline on this is great if you read the article. No way Meta wins this one.

Overall I agree, but not requiring users to change password when the hashes were taken is a bit too soft IMO.

It will also be interesting to see if they make a public disclosure about the specifics of who and how. They also don’t specifically define if media watched data was included or excluded.

Either way, happy I migrated to Jellyfin.

Debian is basically Ubuntu without Snap.

You can switch. Just sayin.

Debian. Anything to the right is lies.

Since no one is actually answering your question. This was published about 2 weeks ago: https://arxiv.org/abs/2508.18519

I think you can run ADB on another Android device, so maybe an Obtainium+ADB device that stays at home.

Yea, running from repo there are updates, but yea, sad it has stagnated for releases. It’s why I’m starting to look at Lawnchair again.

They were acquired by Branch Analytics, and right after the APK went up in size by 150% with no visible changes.

It then asks for location and accessibility (to see notifications) permissions.

They then got rid of most of the staff, leaving a sole developer.

No one knows what it sends back home (at least not the last time I read about it, which was years ago).

I stopped using it years ago when it got bought and immediately injected with spyware. Neo Launcher or Lawnchair are very similar to Nova. Lawnchair gets more active development, but I use Neo because it’s nearly the same as Nova.

Easier communication. Thousands of people each living far apart had no way to amplify each other. Immigrants were mostly centered around cities, thus the rural divide.

Arch runs me, btw.

It get worse, and the model weights is a bit inaccurate with the Sept update:

The only open source code we have found is for the Lumo mobile and web apps. Proton calling the Lumo AI assistant open source based on that is a bit like Microsoft calling Windows open source just because there’s a github repository for Windows Terminal.

The models listed on Lumo’s privacy policy page are “Nemo, OpenHands 32B, OLMO 2 32B, and Mistral Small 3”. OpenHands is a QWEN fine-tune, and Nemo and Mistral Small are both Mistral models. Since Proton has open-sourced neither the Lumo system prompt nor the mysterious routing methods that decide which model will handle your query, you never know what you are going to get.

So if the server isn’t open source, and the server does all the work, this system is simply not Open Source.

Barring them from offering exclusive deals, which allows competitors to get in the mix at places like Mozilla.

I did not come up with this idea, this was one of the remedies the Judge chose. @[email protected] Telling them to drop Chrome was just flashy talk.

For the record, WinApps makes menu shortcuts/etc.

Hey, I made that. Fun 😆

You are not alone, soooo many people, myself included, are like this. As are many with ADHD.

For me, I found listing out the things I want to do for each project (the details, not the name of the project), and putting them all low priority works. Then I move a few to high priority and tell myself those are my “tasks” for the week.

That stops me from going down the rabbit hole pretty well, while still enjoying my time. I find the number of tasks fluctuates, mainly because after a while of shifting between TV, games, and reading in the gaps, I get that feeling of wanting more productivity being fun back. Which sounds like the feeling you want.

The only good thing about this is hopefully slowing down the disposal clothing fad from Temu.

If this had to happen, I really wish there was a reasonable DM, even $50, and then a requirement to not split shipments to stop business import abuse.
