Yeah, me, too.

But it feels like all cars made in the last decade have connectivity. I’m not a fan.

I’m driving a 2007 Citroën. I hope I can find a car without OTA updates when it’s time to upgrade.

I really don’t want a bait-and-switch where I start to get ads on the dashboard at every intersection.

Yes. That’s public agent.

I speak Swedish from Finland. Similar variation as Sweden’s Eurovision entry.

I have a storagebox at hetzner. My script does:

• Mount the storagebox over sshfs with public key file
• Mount a gocryptfs folder, with supplied key on local file
• Rsync my stuff to the encrypted folder
• Unmounts in reverse order

I can access the storagebox by password, too. So this is my disaster recovery in case my house burns down with all my devices. I’ll just buy another laptop the next day, and me and the Mrs can admire all my code and our wedding videos within a few hours.

I always say that thinking before speaking is a bit like wiping before going number two.

Maybe that’s why I don’t have any friends.

I usually don’t use one for browsing, and not for privacy reasons.

I have a wireguard hub-and-spoke configuration with my VPS as hub to

• Let my VPS act as a reverse proxy to my home servers
• Not have to expose ssh on my VPS to the public internet
• Easily reach all my home servers when I travel
• Route traffic through my VPS when I’m on sketchy open WiFi. Which is when I’ve encountered OP’s sign-in requirement.

Happens to me only when I use my VPN.

My day-to-day stuff stays in sync via syncthing on my two laptops, my desktop and my home server. They all run btrfs, so I won’t be syncing any flipped bits around.

Home server rsyncs from my VPS once a week. When that’s fine, it rsyncs itself over to a hetzner storage over sshfs+gocryptfs.

Four copies at home, one in the cloud.

Me, too. I’ve got some extra buoyancy on account of being fat.

While servicing my sailing yacht I dropped a part of the furler in the water while docked. A new piece was stupidly expensive and would take two weeks to get, while I was cruising on a schedule.

So I dropped the anchor and climbed down the chain to look for it. At the end my wife found it. We probably spent a good three hours diving and feeling around in the soft mud for it.

“Let’s wait and C”.

Meow!

DIPSTICK to enable chests in rise of the trial. SEEYA for god mode where the protagonist just walks around with his hand of God yawning at how boring it is when there’s no challenge. CUJO for dog mode.

Also, LONDON and NODNOL to enable/disable fog.

I’ve tried libreelec on a raspberry pi 4, but it just doesn’t pass the wife test.

We have a thomson streaming stick 140G (EU branding for ONN). We just use jellyfin, smarttube and our national public service streaming apps. It’s in apps-only mode, but Google still injects one ad on the home screen. I didn’t bother with a custom launcher just yet.

I’m a human bean.

That proves it!

They are offering a free battery swap if you are affected. Or $50. Or $100 off a new phone.

Sounds like they’re picking the cheap route out of a full recall on a pretty old phone.

And don’t even get me started on urinals.

I used one of those Dyson airblades at the airport once. The damn thing started blowing air mid-stream and I got pee all over!

Use btrfs-convert to convert ext4 to btrfs.

NTFS is 31 years old and not modern by any standard. Avoid if you care about your data.

Well, sure. If you did it wrong the first time around. For everyone else, just run “btrfs scrub <device>”
