Yes, and where I work the HV line is 13,800V.

I use Nextcloud (currently using their AIO docker images) for all of that. Not sure if it checks all the boxes perfectly, but if not it is probably as close as youll find ready-made.

It seems likely you are using it tethered, vs wireless.

Yeap, same. I have given up on Android Auto because of that. I am not going to let Google hold my phone hostage so they can force me to pay ransom (with my data.)

I never use a Play Store version of anything I can find on F-droid or other repos I trust. Then I try it using Aurora Store. Only as a last-resort I try Google. Play Store is only for things I cannot obtian or replace another way.

And pretty much everything else as well.

That… seems like a poor design.

Yuup. Torrents are for the rare thing I care about that isnt on either nzbgeek or matrix.

My first computer job was at a college that used names from ancient history and mythology. So I mostly still do that. Medea is my plex server. Zeus and Hera are the hosts for docker and VMs. Heimdall is the router.

The only break in the pattern is my storage, which is currently NASC and NASD…

Oh and my personal machine used to be HAL_9000 (complete with wallpaper and theme sounds) but now I just name it “box.”

I believe the word you’re looking for is “kludgey.”

Yeah, it IS good for me. Sorry you’re only just now figuring this out. Meanwhile techies sorted it out 15 years ago.

Late to the party, then. Most people I know went on silent a decade or more ago.

Oh and while we are at it, notifications are for important things I need to know, not for fucking ads. Any app that uses notifications for ads gets deleted.

Yeah, they solved that over a decade ago. Both iOS and Android let you override DnD for contacts and or repeat callers.

Really? Everything else was fine but this is a bridge too far?

Ironically, my earlier today my overly chatty doctor was ranting about how methadone is a racket and they string people along for years instead of titrating them off. He prescribes Suboxone, apparently.

My background is in enterprise software, so that is obviously different than a desktop tool for individual use, but it informs my opinions.

In general it depends on the use (is it “production” critical, etc) as well as the update and distribution mechanisms.

I have several (mostly for windows) FOSS projects i have stopped using or just rarely update because they require too many steps to update, and/or do so too often.Or they require a reboot. Some of them prompt for an update every time I start them. Feh.

That said, if there isn’t much friction like testing cycles or manual steps to update, I want faster updates.

Most of my self-hosted stuff falls into the category of getting updates via package managers or docker. Those are often seemless and do not require manual steps.

Most Billionaires don’t write much code.

Lol. AI has so very little to do with this. That’s only mentioned because it’s the latest bogeyman.

My bank apps all work (though YMMV.) Ticket app worked (AXS.) I haven’t actually used google pay or google wallet for anything to know if they work.

Authy is the only miss I’ve found and it wouldn’t have mattered if i hadnt been caught in the midst of migrating to another app for that when they decided to be assholes.

She somehow managed to perform worse with women than Biden did (53% vs 55%.)
