I find phone images too always look overprocessed, specifically sharpened and denoised.

Yeah. One of the major reasons I never plan to use Proton or Tutanota is that none of my email apps will work and I will rely on whatever interface they provide.

Yeah, libredirect is awesome. It’s useful even if I remember all the frontends, since it means even embedded and linked videos use whatever frontend I want in the case of Youtube.

I’m not sure if this is true anymore, but IIRC all embedded youtube videos have no ads. Which would explain why creators can prevent their video being played embedded.

At least for ProtonVPN, you can install the wireguard app and import a protonVPN config and get the base functionality with no bullshit.

It’s a traffic law, you can teach it just like any other. It gets added to driving school’s curricula and must be demonstrated in driving tests. You could communicate this law to existing drivers by removing the stop line from bike lanes and putting little bike yield signs, if the intersection warrants it.

And if you use Llama, then your queries are not sent to OpenAI.

Same reason you use Lemmy over Reddit.

I bought a small APC UPS about a year ago and am glad I did. In my area, very brief outages are somewhat common so a small UPS will work for the majority of outages.

LVRA has a great table listing compatibility.

I mean, if you don’t mind paying more, handhelds like this exist.

My understanding of Whatsapp’s data collection is that since the messages are encrypted, Meta “only” profiles you using metadata. If you use a matrix bridge to communicate, they would lose out on data like how you interact with their app and when you open it as well as location data but would still get to know when and who you send messages to.

I use that feature when a site requires 2fa bit I don’t really care about the account.

I personally use bitwarden. I like it because it has a flow of cash from corporate users paying for hosting that funds development meaning I know how they get their money. You can use Bitwarden’s server if you don’t need all the features or you are willing to pay or you can selfhost (which is what I do).

Plugs in HTC Vive and uses WLX-overlay to enlarge the website to 100m virtually.

Every few months or so there is news of what hurdle has been overcome getting the camera on the oneplus 6 to work. So you might be right there.

I currently run DivestOS on a oneplus 6 and it’s pretty slick with mull for web browsing and neostore for apps.

I daily drove a Oneplus 6 with PostmarketOS for a few months. While it was very cool and gave me a bunch of freedom compared to android, I missed things like always having proper mobile UIs and a working camera. It is my understanding that the fairphone 4 is in a similar state of support, if a bit worse. Can recommend it though if you like using linux and don’t need banking or a camera from your phone.

A download manager I found to work well generally was aria2c. Only really worth it if you are on linux but it is simple yet powerful.

Interesting. I usually will use the measuring tools as a sanity check to make sure I did not mess up before I spend an hour printing. Most of my projects are mostly composed of primitives and boolean modifiers so I can usually put my dimensions in the panel that appears when you create an object.
