IoS - internet of shit
IoS - internet of shit
With the enshittification of streaming platforms, a Kodi or Jellyfin server would be a great starting point. In my case, I have both, and the Kodi machine gets the files from the Jellyfin machine through NFS.
Or Home Assistant to help keep IOT devices that tend to be more IoS. Or a Nextcloud server to try to degoogle at least a little bit.
Maybe a personal Friendica instance for your LAN so your family can get their Facebook addiction without giving their data to Meta?
I haven’t used Tailscale myself, but it seems like it’s basically just a Wireguard frontend.
I actually want to have someone try the shelving bit to see just how bad of an idea it is
It’s all good.
I did wonder if the article was AI generated, everything just seemed absolutely idiotic.
I don’t actually agree with this list, I just saw it pop up in my Google feed and wanted a discussion around it. I didn’t realize people would have this visceral of a reaction to it.
You need a full 8.1 surround lock system. These can be pricey, but I recommend this one from EcoBee. They typically run around $1300 each, but they come with elastiglass replacement if your window breaks under their protection, which I think is worth it.
I’ve debated getting rid of windows entirely to remove the risk, but I think I have enough protections in place for now.
I just gave it a review. They don’t seem to read the reviews, but maybe someone else will see it and agree.
That was my thought, too. But what’s the worst that could happen in that scenario? “Oh no, that guy keeps getting free drinks.” Big whoop, you already have plenty of people actually paying for your overpriced drinks. I don’t know, it’s really dumb.
It’s been getting ridiculous. One of the apps on my partner’s phone recently warned that they wouldn’t open with Developer options enabled.
This app is a fucking drink menu and digital punch card for a popular coffee shop, what could be done from the developer options that affects this app in any way? Especially since I only enabled developer options to speed up the godawful Android animations. Out of principal I’ve stopped going there and deleted the app.
Here’s a massive list of “Alternative Internet” software. There are some blockchain items in there, but otherwise it’s pretty extensive.
Alternatively, you switch to LanguageTool because it does the same thing but it is privacy minded.
“Technically correct” is the best form of correct. Though having tried setting up Wireguard in the past, having a dead-simple solution like Tailscale might be worth trying it out, especially with the 100 device free tier
