Generally agreed, I would actually try using as many services with their progressive web apps.

The main reason I think they may need google services is the banking app. Mine will refuse to launch without google services installed.

I’ve always known disc to refer specifically to optical media.

You sound like the ideal candidate for a refurbished Pixel 7 / 8 from amazon.

Test its hardware thoroughly on the stock os in case you need to return it.

Install GrapheneOS using the Web installer.

Install Droid-ify into your main profile from the f-droid web page. It looks much better than the official f-droid client and actually has a working auto-update

Create a work profile. I use an app called Shelter as the work profile admin app. This allows you to auto freeze your big-tech apps to help with battery life / privacy. Install google services from the built-in GrapheneOS app store.

Enjoy.

BTW you CAN do DNS in a unifi gateway. It just requires making dnsmasq entries through shell. Perfect solution? No. But it gets you there with no additional hardware.

I’ve been using Linode (now owned by Akamai) for a couple years now and have enjoyed their pricing / service.

I mean speaking from experience, its resurrected a couple problematic CPUs for me. CPU pins no, pads on an LGA style CPU, sure.

I’m with catloaf. Consistent CPU soft locks point to a possible bad memory module or CPU.

Clear CMOS.

Try removing one memory module at a time.

See if there is an option to disable hyperthreading in bios.

Another thing to try is to remove the CPU, careful not to damage the LGA pins on the motherboard, and clean the CPU contacts with alcohol. Take care to ground yourself out and the case before handling the CPU out of socket.

You are correct, a VPN connection does not bridge to another profile. You can install a VPN in said work profile. The always-on VPN settings in grapheneos have the work icon to indicate what VPN is in your work profile.

Joel proceeds to make it so only heavy units spawn just to spite us.

I concur, the music score for the first game was a cut above the rest. I also found myself utterly unable to gain interest in the sequel. I think I tried on two occasions to get into Below Zero.

I’ve been running the commando with light armor, jet pack, and a blitzer. I’ve grown addicted to the high-speed “ride or die” action that load out gives me.

Because that load out requires that you keep moving to avoid damage, the EAT doesn’t really work that well. The commando seems to fit the role well. That being said, its not that good against bugs.

That was very undemocratic of them… Suspiciously so… 🧐

See my other comment on this thread. Basically I have a shared mount point for the two containers and TubeSync writes video metadata to NFO files.

TubeSync has an option to write metadata to NFO files. Then you just tell Jellyfin to not run any scrapper and just use said NFO files. It’s not perfect but it gets you a title and description for the video.

I use TubeSync to do the downloading and then have Jellyfin as a frontend player. Seems to work pretty good for me and was pretty quick to stand up in docker.

Or when you hear “I just have a quick question” and you instantly know its time to get comfy as its gonna be a long ass phone call.

I’ve been using fedora on a small intel 6th gen or newer mini pc. I then cook up some custom launch scripts that cause JMP to run at login. I use cockpit and a CMK agent for remote monitoring and management.

I got sick of the lack certificate management on Android TV and how much you need to do to make it reasonably private.

If you are on the latest mesa drivers (hence fedora over a more LTS release), and you install Jellfin Media Player via flatpak, everything should just work with hardware decoding.

But you know those repairs will outlive the rest of the pants.

You can self-host the kiwix server in docker and grab .zim files for whatever wiki you want to host. Wikipedia is one of those files.
