Personally I've always felt really averse to doing sponsorships in my videos. I know a fair few people who do take them and that's absolutely fine with me, but I just want to share my creations for the sake of sharing them. My goal pretty much since I started has been to make money off of YouTube ads and selling my own games since it's a finished product people can hopefully get something out of, with no forced obligations to buy it if they're not interested. I find that a lot more comfortable than promoting some company where I can't guarantee any quality and I suck up a bunch of your time for it.

Hey!

I want to say how deeply I appreciate your videos. I love the topics you choose, how you approach them, and how you creatively implement the videos. I am a fan of your character, and I love how constraints make it even more expressive. And the sound direction on this one is amazing! Thank you for your work!

I absolutely agree with your position on the sponsors. I personally would take it one step further and say that advertisements almost always try to sell you something you did not need before. So, I would be suspicious of anything that is highly advertised.

The same goes for projects that need to be profitable. I know how it goes; I faced those same scenarios. Not everything has to be for profit, and nothing is inherently supposed to be for profit.
You are still fully in full right to offer a donation option, especially considering all the disclaimers you've included.

Considering the context of your channel and the topics you discuss, you might be interested in a project called https://comradery.co/p/whofor. It's a cooperatively owned platform alternative to Patreon. It seems relatively small, and the features are not that broad, but as one of the options, it seems really inspiring.

@rejectconvenience Ironically, it is usually those who are as based as you to reject sponsors who I would trust a recommendation from. If you change you're mind, all good with me, but also very cool for you to have been so intentional about the role you play in the lives of your viewers. More content creators should operate with the care and respect that you have.

I would most likely think you WOULDN'T lol because you seem like the person to not like brilliant and stuff like that and also most websites have obnoxious cookies soo
Still, massively respect your decision. You can actually take sponsors, we (atleast most ppl) wouldn't mind.

I am so so so excited to join a forum! For years I have been lamenting the death of forums and I’m just thrilled that there are others who feel the same way.

I’m British but have been in Canada for almost half my life at this point. I became a mom last year so I’m very tired and don’t have too much time for my hobbies right now but they include weather, doppler radar, and civil defence sirens. I like to do stuff with my hands and I knit and sew and make dumb little clay models, and I got a cool sublimation printer and heat press for christmas so I can’t wait to get stuck into that.

My goal this year is to learn gardening and start a greenhouse in my backyard.

I’m a big reader and my favorite topics over the past few years have been things about the internet, media, privacy, advertising, and commerce. But my perennial fave is Terry Pratchett.

Glad to be here!

Hey all! I'm Luecium, a 20yo computer science student from the UK. I'm in my second year of studies, though I'm taking a year out right now. Interests include: Programming, maths, anime, (modded) Minecraft.

My frustration with the internet started with the growing number of adverts, intensified with infinite-scroll shortform content, and reached its peak with the takeover of AI-generated content. I want to replace my use of Reddit (which I believe is mostly bot content these days) with traditional forums like this. I've not used traditional forums since I was a kid, so apologies if my etiquette leaves something to be desired

Also: Since I'm not at uni this year, I'm looking to make some online friends! Please reach out of you think we might have some shared interests

Hello!! I'm bubbafinches and its funny to see that it seems like im the third person from MN here!!

I've been trying to ditch my scrolling addiction for years and am finally making consistent progress with lifestyle changes like an iPod and a flip phone (the iPod has been fully customized but I'm still working on rooting the flippy)! It's hard to find like-minded folks so this forum is really cool to find. I didn't go down the IT career pipeline like some folks here but am very interested in tinkering with my own tech, had a pretty strong OSINT phase, and grew up in a very techy family

My interests include journaling, crafting, listening to music (currently loving heavier stuff like NIN and Get Scared), and I've recently started bartending. Excited to contribute and see what others have to say.

A lot of people here seem really cool so feel free to PM, but I will warn that i may take a bit to respond because i can be a bit frazzle-brained!

Hey everyone! My name is Mimi, I'm from Brazil.

This is my first proper time on a forum (not a thing from my time; by the age I was using a computer, Orkut and Facebook were already the norm so I missed a lot of the fun). I heard about here from @Linkard's video Let me help you escape the endless scroll. For a while I've been trying to get rid of exactly that through abandoning some social media, touching grass and more recently, avoiding algorithm recommendations.

I don't really know how to introduce myself so here are some things and topics I like: horror and surrealist movies, coffee WITH milk, linux and desktop customization (mandatory arch btw - I'm sorry, they have my family), nail care, weight lifting, minecraft, drawing, programming (minor scripting stuff), rotating/sparkling gifs, social problems, retro tech, studying and journaling.

By now, I may or may not be planning to create a personal website

Nice to meet y'all~

Hi, I'm Molly. I've spent the past month deleting all my Big Tech Company accounts and removing their products from my life (Amazon, Apple, Google, Meta, Microsoft, Automattic....all gone). I started doing it due to privacy and security concerns, but it's led me to the discovery that the weird, personal Web I remember from the 90s still exists. I'm so glad you're all here!

It's been a week since I closed my last social media account (Reddit) and I'm amazed how much happier I am already. And how much more I enjoy ordinary things.

My next big project is to flash a custom ROM to my phone to free it from Google. I still have a smartphone, but if the custom ROM experiment fails and bricks it, I don't think I'll cry too hard about switching to a dumb phone. For environmental reasons, though, I'm not changing phones till I need to.

Also, I ordered a print encyclopedia last week! Partly because I'm a big advocate of using them to teach students how to think about knowledge creation (I'm a school librarian), but mostly because I want to read it. Again. Fun fact: I read the entire 1966 Britannica the summers of 1993-1994. I didn't understand most of it, but I read it.

I blog at http://drmollytov.bearblog.dev. I'm also re-learning HTML and learning CSS, and I experiment with these at http://drmollytov.neocities.org.

I've never opened up to anyone on the internet. That is, I have never had interactions with people outside my irl friends to discuss interests, personal experiences, etc. I've never posted on Twitter or Tumblr or reddit, I haven't been part of any online communities, even though I really wanted to, just because I didn't know how.
At least not without cringing at myself.

When did all the windmills start to turn so slow?

Due to some sad events lately, I've found myself searching for connection, for a sense of belonging. I started learning about the indie web and how people use it to share hobbies and generally have real, valuable interactions. I have always kept my interests to myself but now? Now I embrace the cringe I guess.

I'm napo. I'm from Argentina . Like mimi, I found this blog through Linkard's video (hi!). I had also watched and enjoyed Anthony's channel for a while (hi also! Thanks for this space)

Interests, in no particular order and with different levels of expertise (mostly amateur-hobbyist): making music, synthesizers, electronics, programming, general DIY, self growth and therapy, photography, editing, reading. Learning about random things, how they work, what their history is.

I tend to hop from interest to interest but those are my main ones. Until now, I've been a silent consumer of any content related to these but I've been thinking of starting a personal website and finally have a space for them.

So yea. How yall doing?

Volunteering :: Ham radio comms for remote 50k foot race :: Author zonk

2025-02-16T23:43:59+00:00

Yesterday was the 7th year I helped provide radio communications for a 50k foot race in mountainous terrain where there is no cell service. We keep track of all the runners' bib numbers and report them back to the race director to track the progress of the runners and make sure nobody is lost or injured. Additionally, we are able to call out for support in case there is an emergency or (more likely) an aid station is in need of supplies.

This year was the first time it ever rained on us, so that was an experience, but we were prepared enough and didn't get soaked (except for the poor guy who had to walk the trail at the end just to make sure nobody was there and any trash was cleaned up). Normally the biggest obstacle is freezing temperatures. Thankfully there were no complications with the race itself. A couple of the runners were starting to get hypothermic because of the rain cooling them down, but to my knowledge nobody ended up requiring medical attention. The aid station got them dried off and warmed up, and we called in a ride for them on the radio.

Our crew has a 90-foot portable antenna tower which is deployed at the top of a hill along with a repeater so that all the different aid stations can contact one another and the start/finish location with the race director. The first year we ever did it, we did not have the repeater, so there was one guy up on the hill relaying the messages between the stations, and we were the first crew to ever successfully establish communications for the race, which is why we continue to be invited back each year.

It's a very fun experience, and I try to recruit all the new local ham radio operators to help out. It's a great way to put those skills to use serving the community and make new friends!

Hi!!!!! I am a really big fan of this website, and old/creative websites in general (my "gems" bookmark folder contains 76 websites so far). I love occasionally dropping in here to look at the latest "cool websites" post.

I have a website of my own that I've been working on for quite a while now (almost 5 years now I believe?). If anyone wants to check it out, feel free to do so :).

https://jochemleijenhorst.com

The website is really all over the place. There's a quiz with dumb questions you can only know the answer to if you consumed very specific obscure media; it has a prototype board editor I made in 2020, incorrectly named "PCBEditor", which is probably the second buggiest web-app you will ever use (the first of course being 365 Powerpoint); and it also has a page where I rant about vocaloid for some reason.
If you do decide to visit, please do leave a comment!!!! :) I really love receiving comments, it's really great.

I might one day completely remake it (sounds like a fun project), but as it stands right now the code is a mess. It is one js file with 3343 lines of spaghetti and I don't think I would be able to fix any of the bugs with the lack of documentation that code has.
If you want to design a prototype board (the ones with the grid of solderable holes, which is what this editor was meant for), I've found that using inkscape with a large grid (using grid intersections as holes) works a lot nicer than the editor I made.

Glad you like it though :)

Do you do any edits to your pictures?

Yes I do, though these days I try to keep my edits simple. Very easy to overdo it and ruin a good photo.

I use RawTherapee as my editing software. Normally the extent of my edits is a little bit of exposure correction and a film simulation using HaldCLUT (which is built into RawTherapee, but you'll need to track down some files to make it useful). Sometimes I'll also use graduated/vignette filters to keep a bright sky from distracting from the subject.

For film photos, I normally don't do any editing at all, but I did recently learn a trick using RGB tone curves to get rid of the colored haze you sometimes get from the lab scans. I will sometimes leave the haze in if I think it adds to the feel of the image, but sometimes (especially with films like Lomochrome Metropolis) the haze ruins the effect of the film so I'll fix that up and then leave it alone.

2025-01-25T15:49:38+00:00

This is the route I chose, too, but the iPhone equivalent. I’ve been toying with the dumbphone idea for years but at the times I may have pulled the trigger I was thwarted by the total lack of options in Canada. Punkt became available in Canada recently, and there is a flip phone available everywhere, but as I was pricing things out I realized that I have paid for, and already own, a perfectly functional device. I didn’t want to spend the extra money. I had already decentralized my iPhone… I own cameras, which was what I really used it for most, take my notes in notebooks, have an mp3 player, and had already deleted almost all of my apps. I turned off most of my notifications years ago.

I was also thinking about something that came up in the dumbphone update video which was the expectation that you have a smartphone. I bought a house recently and never even met my lawers, it was all done online. Including my identity verification which could only be done through an app on my phone. My baby’s nanny cam doesn’t even come with a viewer, the phone is the expected viewer. For a time I dedicated an old ipad to that function but it just made things needlessly complicated. It’s easier to have it on my phone. I live a life where I get a lot of phone calls and can’t really afford to miss them so I do have it with me all the time even if I don’t use it that much.

Anyway, I also found this kind of dumbification super helpful in reducing time spent on my phone and also how I use it. My pickup metric is so low compared to what it was before. I respect the dumbphone but this option was the right move for me right now.

I use the Pro Launcher, the paid version of OLauncher, which I found exactly fits my needs. I was able to get rid of Social Media Apps fairly easily, except YouTube, as I didn't use many in the first place. But one thing I did consistently was just scroll through my Apps that I used as a Time waster.

Which made me look into Minimalism Apps. And Pro Launcher looked as the best solution for me. They're quick and easy setup was perfect and my Phone, how my work college put it, was made into a Message and Ping/Notification Device. (I have a lot of Admin things which need me to be Pinged when stuff go wrong)

I've had my eye on the Punkt MP02 for some time now. The main thing holding me back is the price. I think the only feature I'd miss is maps, but that comes with the dumb phone territory. I am really attracted to the idea of a dumb phone that still supports Signal messaging and tethering (so I can use a laptop to get online if I need to).

Has anyone used one of these?

I have my phone set to "do not disturb" for all hours except for one hour before work and one hour after. I leave notifications on all during the weekend since I will commonly have plans and may need to coordinate with friends.

I think the important thing is intentionality. Using your phone first thing in the morning is (probably) a force of habit which needs breaking, same with using it late into the evening and keeping yourself awake. The idea is to reprogram yourself to find other ways to cure boredom than picking up the distraction rectangle and choosing exactly when you want to be online and available.

Pretty much that. The intention why you use your Phone is more important than the when. My Phone is only during Sleeping time on Silent, but the Apps i have on my Phone are purely Messengers to communicate with Friends and Family or Utility Apps that server a Particular Purpose (Banking, Monitoring of Home Lab, etc.).
And all these Apps I curate what Notifications are allowed to be sent and which arent. Socials are usually disabled on my Phone.

The intention why you use your Phone is the primary Factor, if you use your Phone first thing in the morning to go on your Socials or watch YT, then there might be an Issue.
But if its only as a Checkup about the Weather or Messages from Friends/Family for Plans or so then I don't see the Issue.

I think you make a good point that there are a lot of rules around when to use or not use phones that people throw out there. Im not a huge fan of how these 'rules' are applied as a one-size-fits all, and treated as if they will solve all your problems. I never really found them easy to follow. even with a dumbphone, I still use it in the morning or at night, but now it's more about WHY Im using it. if I wanna shoot a text to a friend before bed? sure! or confirm plans with someone when I wake up? yeah!!

Buuuuuut i think that the "dont use your phone in the morning/before bead" can really be a helpful general rule if a smartphone is involved. its SO easy to get caught up in a Scroll Hole on virtually any app. At least, it was really easy for me to do that, so sometimes trying to read a book instead or not have my phone on my bedside table helped (eventually though it proved not enough for my addiction, so I needed some harder lifestyle changes through things like a dumbphone. Kinda felt like being an alcoholic and going to bars anyways all the time and trying to stay clean- if I had my smartphone around all the time and I if I was using it 'just' for necessary tasks). I DID notice too that, if I did use my smartphone in the morning, my day started out feeling worse than the days that I'd kept off it in the mornings. Im talkin like, wake-up-and-open-social-media-apps kinda thing. it felt like I started the whole day nerfed. And if I was on it at night, it would be really hard to not just get into a scroll hole, or even an info hole if I was looking up stuff online. Thus losing sleep, etc etc.

So basically, do or did I follow those rules well? No, lol. Do I think there's some merit to them? yeah. But apply as is fit for your life and what you can handle. At the very least those 'rules' helped me identify where the hotspots were in my life. I tried to adjust based on that awareness and found that a bigger solution was necessary. Also, there are definitely folks out there who can be on their phones in the morning and at night and not feel the way I did, and more power to them.

I keep my mobile device, a Pixel 4a, tucked behind my real phone, a Western Electric 2500. I only get it out to take photos, because I currently do not have a real camera.

To complete the 80's look, I got a Rolodex to sit next to the phone.

I think the last thing that's holding me back from switching to a dumb phone is 2fa. What are some good alternatives to smartphone apps for TOTP, and what's it like using them in the real world?

Phones :: Re: 2-factor auth :: Reply by Crazyroostereye

2025-01-29T19:57:40+00:00

There do exist TOTP clients for the Desktop, and in Password Managers like KeePass and Bitwarden.

While I do have a Smartphone I actually rarely use it for 2FA, I primarily use the Passkey/TOTP integration in Bitwarden (I trust it as I do Selfhoste it in my own Network so no Internet access without VPN).

Another option are FIDO keys, which are USB devices that store and act as Passkeys which also sometimes offer a TOTP.
Example Yubico's YubiKeys

They are a bit Pricey but are good and secure devices usually.

2025-01-29T20:25:14+00:00

I do use KeePassXC so I am tempted to use that. As they state in their docs, though, putting TOTP keys in the same database as the passwords defeats the security of 2fa. I am considering making a second database just for them, but that will be a bit annoying (of course the TOTP database would need a different password to remember).

Not entirely. Yes in the case somebody gets access to your KeePass it will mean that 2FA is useless, but when that happens they most likely have access to your Computer (or you Lost the KeePass File, never Upload your KeePass file keep it local).
But the more likely attack your account will witness is a Brute Force or leaked Password, where the 2FA will work having it in your KeePass. It depends on the Risk you are willing to take.

But when this Risk is still too high, which I fully understand, I would recommend A FIDO Key with TOTP functionality.
As the FIDO Key acts as a Hardware Passkey, so you can make use of Passwordless, and if that dosent work for the Service you can use the TOTP feature.

Phones :: Re: 2-factor auth :: Reply by Kolev

2025-01-31T04:41:50+00:00

As it's advisable to keep password database and 2FA tokens separate, I'd go with an app dedicated to 2FA. For GNU/Linux, GNOME has an app called Authenticator.

Phones :: Re: 2-factor auth :: Reply by drmollytov

2025-02-03T00:31:13+00:00

A weird fun fact I discovered at work: Microsoft Authenticator will still allow me to log into my work account, even if the phone contains no SIM card, as long as the phone has access to wi-fi.

I have a Galaxy S8 that got softlocked (long story, kinda my fault), so I deleted everything off it except Authenticator. It now lives in a locked drawer in my work desk, and I take it out every two weeks when my computer insists I prove that I am still the librarian. This frees me up to switch to a dumb phone as soon as my current "daily driver" dies.

That's actually a great use case for old phones you may have lying around. Just keep them in a drawer for the few things you need a phone for, but don't daily drive with them. If you do that, you can keep all of the flexibility of the app ecosystem of mobile devices including good 2FA apps.

Currently running a CAT S22 flip and kinda loving it. its sometimes slow with things like maps and snapchat, but honestly if im doing a meta-analysis on myself, this is great. It makes me NOT want to use it unless it becomes necessary. Eventually, there are plans to root the CAT phone and personalize it even more, but life is serving me some job changes so that's getting tabled until things level out. It functions perfectly fine in the interim anyways! I try and let my smartphone run out of battery too so I'm not tempted to use it because it's really not needed at this point for anything pressing.

Also in case anyone needs this info- T-mobile has functioned MUCH better on the CAT S22 than Verizon. Long story short, my old phone servicer (tracfone) was T-mobile, but it got bought out by Verizon. Had no reception issues with the old flip phone I had (Nokia 2780 flip) when I got switched to Verizon, but the phone started to bug out more in other ways so I figured an upgrade was necessary. When I got the Verizon SIM in the CAT, it was pretty bad. maxxed at 2G, call quality was bad, I would miss out on texts, etc etc. Switched back to T-mobile through Metro and have been having a much better time- wish I could have had it from the beginning so my experience with the CAT wasn't so rough at first. I didnt know Verizon would be an issue so i miss-attributed some issues (like call quality) to the phone, but since switching have had a much better time.

I have instagram on the CAT for organizing/local events, but I kinda hate going on it there. Insta and Snapchat have pretty much now been relegated to laptop usage, and even then it's much easier to limit and be aware of my time spent. Still feeling out how I feel about a lot of screen time being spent on my laptop now, but one punch at a time, right!?

I have had 2 flip phones: the TCL flip 2 and the CAT S22. I hate the S22. It has a really poor build quality and subpar components on it. The keyboard feels so bad to type on. My TCL, which is way cheaper than the CAT, is the better flip phone in almost every way. Only thing is that I need to have no browser on my phones. I am too addicted with poor impulse control atm, so neither device is good enough for my needs.

I have rooted my old motorola moto x4 to dumb it down to only have texts, calls, podcasts, and navigation. Even with this, I still hate having it in my pocket. This is what I will be running until I get my lightphone 3, which I am super excited for.

I have seen the Fairphones around, my personal experience isn't that great. The Phones given they're Price class are usually just that much worse which is huge turndown, but I could be wrong nowadays my experience is from the Fairphone 3.

Pixel 6A with GrapheneOS and OLauncher. Got it a couple years ago to replace my previous phone which over the years got enough damage that fixing it would cost as much as a new one.

I've had a proper dumbphone in the last few years as well, while said previous phone was being fixed, but it was way too much of a hassle getting authentication codes etc. via text all the time instead of just opening an app, and I didn't want to spend lots of money to get a dumbphone with Android. Props to the people for whom it works, though.

Since this forum is about websites, this is technically off topic, but I think it's close enough. The Gemini protocol is an alternative to HTTPS designed in the likeness of the much older Gopher. It supports simple text documents and direct file links (which some clients can embed but it should not be assumed). There is an active community of Gemini users who I believe have overlapping interests with this group, so you might want to check it out.

I'm gonna start off-topic and ask why you allocated a whole gibibyte for your EFI partition. You should only need a few MB max for that.

Now for my real answer: I have many NASes running TrueNAS CORE (sadly it's being discontinued, but TrueNAS SCALE will still be around). One is at my house, and I have scripts to back up my personal files to it nightly. All my music, movies, and photos are stored on there and mounted via NFS on my PC. That NAS has a nightly rsync job to copy all the files that changed that day to my remote systems for off-site backups. Each month, I plug in an external hard disk and run a script to back everything up onto it for cold storage.

The NASes do not have equal capacities, but they're around 6TB with ZFS file systems in various configurations.

For certain things I will also back up onto optical media, but I don't do that for very much.

Honestly my EFI is also a Gig. I once had less, but I had it once overfill because I was doing stuff and dealing with that was Pain. Also, I have enough storage to do so.

My Laptop runs ZFS as its filesystem, but I don't have any System to send my Snapshots away. The only things actively being Backed up are My Financial Data and images which get synced to my Server.

The Server itself also having ZFS Pool runs a Weekly full backup and Daily Differential Backup, that is sent it to a Cheap NAS we had lying around. There are Plans to back up that Data to an Offsite Backup point but no concrete plans have been made.

The available Capacity of the Server is currently 2TB (2x2TB Drives RAID 1). But a round of Upgrades are planned for him, including a Storage Upgrade to 12TB (2x12TB Drives RAID 1) as there are things that haven't been Incorporated into the Server that really should be. Like Media Libraries and so on.

I know, I know, but it's stable, and that's all I ask of a computer these days. I did have to change the desktop environment to KDE's Plasma, since the color management was insane (the colors were super saturated, but switching to Plasma totally resolved it). Since this has a built in 4060, I can also do test renders on the couch, which I am a big fan of.

The keyboard/trackpad would constantly disconnect and reconnect over and over, it was unusable as a laptop. Plugging in an external keyboard and mouse worked fine, but that's not why I got a laptop. Tried going back and forth with support, they eventually sent me a midplate replacement, which resulted in the same issue. I really have no idea what the actual problem was, I requested to returned it at that point, as I had it for nearly a month and I was just tired lol. I had done things like swapping the RAM, (I even went to a Best Buy and bought new RAM and tested it right in the store with the same issue), reseating every single cable and connection, BIOS updates, I even put Windows on it at one point to see if it was maybe a Linux issue, even thought it was also a problem in the BIOS itself. I suspect it was a motherboard issue, but I really have no idea at the end of the day, there were too many variables. It could have been one of the modules, it could have been the keyboard, and going back and forth with support via email with multiple days between responses was not the most satisfying thing in the world when I was trying to do my job with the dang thing.

I know what it's like to be on a small support team, and even a big support team, so I'm not upset with anyone I interacted with (though, every response was from a different person, which was a little weird. Seems like "case ownership" isn't really a thing over there). Knowing they're a smaller company, I'm not super surprised with some of the response times, my only wish was that they asked me to troubleshoot more than one thing at a time. If you know your responses are gonna take a couple days to get back to me, make me try like 5-6 things, ya know? But again, I get it for sure.

If I was using it as a more casual device, I think Framework would have been much more acceptable, but I bought it to deal with my YouTube stuff, so it wasn't ideal for me to be troubleshooting and have it not work with what I bought it for. I just needed a thing that worked, and this Lenovo is working perfectly so far. And if it stops working, I can just waltz into a Best Buy and return it for a new one same day, no questions asked.

I totally get that. Update from me, I also get a new laptop - a ThinkPad T14 Gen 5 (Intel) - and I chose it over the Framework for that reason. I didn't want to gamble with a small issue that I wouldn't be able to solve. So far my experience on my ThinkPad has been great, but at least the one I picked up is one of the new repairable ones to still send the signal that I value repairability. I also got the option with Ubuntu preinstalled to send the signal that I want to be able to buy Linux laptops!

I started learning Linux back in 2015 at trade school. We used (back in the day), Ubuntu, Lubuntu and Debian.
I've been using Debian on my laptop for a while now. I love this distro. I love how lightweight it is, and I've had a way less buggy experience compared to Ubuntu. I use it to code Symfony and Node, and to host my own custom offline maps with routing, and it's been super stable.

I don't see myself switching to any other distro anytime soon. I'm planning on switching my main web server to Debian, and migrate everything to docker. Will see how it goes.

On my main rig I still use Windows 11, completely debloated off of unnecessary apps, disabled trackers, and with tons of fixes to revert Explorer and other components to Windows 10. I'm also blocking all this remaining traffic through a PiHole running on a Raspberry Pi 4.

I use my main rig for gaming, 3d modelling (FreeCad, Fusion), coding (Visual Studio) and PCB Design (Eagle, KiCad).

There's a vast amount of software that I rely on, and alternatives on Ubuntu/Debian haven't been great.

I think this is the perfect balance for me, I get to enjoy Windows without it's anti-user practices, and I get to use Debian for all my other needs.

Files I usually want to keep are directly written to my Nextcloud or are in Synced folders in the Nextcloud or in Git repos on remotes. But I do also use the ZFS file system which makes periodic immutable Snapshots to which I can restore to when stuff happens, this is not a Backup tho.

But a tool I used to use for Backups was Pika Backup, as far as I understand Time Machine, they are similar. It's based on Borg backup a standard Backup system and allows backing up to remotes (SSH/SFTP/SMB) or local Locations. It has encryption functionality, an integrity check and periodic Automatic Backups.

I highly recommend it.
Another tool I heard about, but never used is Timeshift.

I just don't have much in the way of files, so I don't find this inconvenient. Really critical stuff also gets backed up to a 256GB thumb drive that also lives in the fire safe. My current projects are always in CryptPad, so I don't worry too much about them.

An hour later, another rsync task runs on the NAS to back up to two remote NASes I have strategically placed at the houses of friends and family. The local NAS communicates with the remote systems via VPN which is hosted at my house. I also have an external HDD that I manually back up to once a month just in case my local NAS explodes and I need my files without having to slowly download them from a remote NAS.

for those out of the loop, UFO 50 is a collection of 50 games by the Spelunky developers made for a fictional console/computer called the LX, which is somewhere between a Famicom and an Amiga. the games are not only good as hell, taking all the good parts about games from that era and resurrecting them with modern sensibilities, but the variety is the cherry on top. UFO 50 contains just about every genre i can think of, from a horror point-and-click to a roguelike deckbuilder to a golf-based RPG. it's also $25 for 50 games, so that's nice too

now that the context is done, i'd love to know if anybody else has played it and what their thoughts on it are!

Look for devices supported by the Rockbox software. Rockbox is replacement firmware for mp3 players which supports FLAC and most other codecs.

All nanos? What do you think of the 3rd generation? I’m looking for something unobtrusive in red, haha. Is there anything wrong with this one?

the 3rd gen honestly might be alright, I just know that ipod nanos (especially the 2nd-gen) CAN be some of the hardest to mod and the least people-friendly for repairs. I got a 2nd gen nano and was excited to start there, but then i did all the ipod research and found that i'd basically gotten the worst one to crack open ;~; i dont know about the 3rd gen specifically, i do know that the 2nd gen is a big issue because the housing is all in one tuna-can shaped piece, so it can be really hard to get everything out without breaking something. a common issue too with the 2nd gen nanos is that the batteries expand. aaaand they expand RIGHT into the screen, so replacing anything without putting pressure on/damaging the screen in that scenario is really hard.

if you ever want to get a feel for how difficult something is, you can head over to the iFixit website and look at a step-by-step process for any goal you may have (replacing the battery, LCD screen, etc etc). the 3rd gen battery replacement seems difficult and is rated "very difficult"... but unsure if that deters you! https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/iPod+Nano+ ... cement/749

looks like the 3rd gen stuff on the website is rated as 'difficult' in general, but maybe depends on skill or gumption level! it also says something about opening it up causing damage to the back panel, so im not sure how repeatable the repair process is.

Heyo! lmk if this post should be in another place here on the forum- im still new to participating in forum environments!!

One of the few daily contributors that I'm trying to weed out from Google is Google Maps (and/or Apple Maps). Does anyone here use any alternatives, and what do you like/dislike about it? How was the adjustment, especially if you've been using it for a long time?
I've started using Magic Earth- nothing too bad, just sometimes it doesnt label my exits clearly and then i miss an exit or something. I try and not use it if im running somewhere late and NEED to get there on time, and haven't used it to navigate to that destination before lol. Other than that, Magic Earth has done the job that I need it to! I've also mentally played around with the idea of doing something similar to the old mapquest days, and printing out or writing out map instructions before leaving the house. Apparently there's an app too for MapQuest, but I haven't tried it yet!
Would love to hear others' thoughts on this subject!

Something I have been using for Navigation, is OSMand+ and Organic Maps. Both Projects rely on Open Street Maps (fun fact Apple Maps also relies on OSM) and offer good Navigation. OSMand+ offer a bit more Power and Features where Organic Maps is a bit more Straight Forward to use.

One place tho where Booth apps lack, where the OSM ecosystem in general lacks, is to tell me opening / closing times of stores. Those Places that they do often have small Inaccuracies.

But that can be remedied by Contributing via Street Complete

I have used Organic Street maps as well, but I have moved onto HERE maps. It has some features that I really like, for example; setting the max speed you drive for more accurate eta estimations, changing your car fuel type from petrol to electric. Overall, it is a really polished application that I recommend as well.

MapQuest still exists and offers turn by turn navigation! It also has settings for walking, biking, or driving, and a lot of the same filters as Google Maps (avoid highways, avoid toll roads, etc).

I use MapQuest when I really need turn by turn navigation or estimated distances in an unfamiliar place (like "can I walk to the hotel from the train station?"). Otherwise I use OrganicMaps a lot. I just learned about OsmAnd from reading the posts here, but I'll check that out next.

I'm missing some of the books since I borrowed the first ones when I was little and lost one of them when I was older.

2025-02-12T17:52:15+00:00

If you're looking for tech criticism books, I've been loving "Ten Arguments for Deleting Your Social Media Accounts Right Now" by Jaron Lanier, and "The Age of Surveillance Capitalism" by Shoshana Zuboff. Both books honestly go hand-in-hand, and pair well together for some tandem-reading (i like to have choices lol!). If you're looking for something shorter and wittier from the POV of someone from Silicon Valley, the first book may be for you. If you want something MUCH more in-depth with a lot of research behind it, then the second one may be for you! The second book is a doozy (for me at least!). Kinda a tomb but packed with a lot of facts and critiques about data and social media in our modern world, and explanations for how it's used against us. The first part is really cool- it outlines how we got here in the first place, and how the dot-com bust is what brought us here. Shoshana makes a cool argument that we weren't necessarily MEANT to be here, i.e. the internet wasn't predestined to be the way it is now. Rather, it's developed into what it is because of specific people at a specific point in time needing to come up with specific solutions (i.e. google running out of money at the turn of y2k and discovering that it could monetize data for ranked ad slots). On that note, a third book on my list is "the tangled web we weave" by James Ball- and it seems like he may disagree that the internet wasn't predestined to be this way, but we'll see! Haven't read it yet! (or at least I just read the intro!)

Either way, the two I've read more of are lovely and have really opened my eyes and provided me with a lot of the information I needed. For awhile it's felt like the internet (broadly using the term "internet"- basically anything from apps like TikTok to websites like Youtube, to the NYT) hasn't passed the smell-test, and these two books have validated that feeling with either years of insider knowledge or years of research from the outside-in, respectively. Heavily respect both authors for putting these books out there.

hey gang! i wanted to know what your favorite forms of physical music media are and why!

i'll start: i prefer CDs - while they arent as portable as cassettes , they also arent big like vinyl. i like flipping through the booklets so as someone who doesnt have a lot of physical space to spare, i feel like CDs are a good middle ground :D

edit: I just realized I posted this in the wrong topic 🤦 its okay, I'll apply the question to movies/tv shows. DVDs or VHS or any other formats? what do you like and why?

Movies and TV :: Re: Physical Media :: Reply by pingaspostal

2025-02-09T04:53:28+00:00

DVDs absolutely, mostly because i can play them on my computer and they're nice and compact. blu-rays would be better in theory, but an optical drive that reads blu-rays is obviously more expensive and i'm a cheapskate

the nostalgic part of me would say VHS, but all the practicality of that format has been erased from this earth

Movies and TV :: Re: Physical Media :: Reply by MikeGs

2025-02-10T21:43:24+00:00

I'd say DVDs and 1080p Blu-Rays. I've already setup my old PS3 to be my preferred way to consume physical movies. As far as I know, the upscaler on the PS3 is pretty good and can make DVD's look quite good (considering how cheap they are).

I've tried to give CD's a try, but after owning a modded iPod and a dock, there's nothing that comes close to it in terms of practicality.

Movies and TV :: Re: Physical Media :: Reply by Kolev

2025-02-14T22:21:06+00:00

Vinyl and DVDs. I like the huge artwork of vinyl, and the experience of spinning a record. DVDs are easy to play and provide enough quality for me.

That said, I actually don't own much physical media, except for religious texts that cannot practically be used in electronic form.

I avoid the topic as much as possible with people. Having recently moved to a new town where I don’t know anybody but have to get out and do social activities with my baby, I’ve wondered if it’s a good strategy. I am obviously different. I don’t know how as I am careful to dress and present myself in a way that allows me to be very incognito, but within a couple of minutes of talking to me most people are aware that something is “off”. Is it the right move to mention the autism?

It's a subject that has generated absolutely insane amounts of misinformation online over the past few years. One consequence of that is the increasing difficulty in predicting how people will respond. But yes, one of those responses is frequently infantilization and I’m experiencing it more and more. And I really don’t know how to handle it. I know that any type of relationship with someone like that is not on the books. But that’s all I know. So I just kind of excuse myself and move on.

I also experience the opposite where people take the most superficial view of my life and expect much more from me than I can possibly give. I struggle with my autism daily. It is a disability, and I am disabled. Somehow this manages to be shocking to a certain subset of people.

I don’t have any answers so all of this is to say you’re definitely not the only one and you are not alone.

I know we have the chat function in this forum, but the nerdier (and/or older) among us still use Internet Relay Chat (IRC) for our real-time chat channels. It's a delightfully simple protocol that's as old as the internet.

What do we think about having an official IRC channel? The main barrier to IRC for most users is setting up a client (IRC is decentralized, so you need to configure your client to connect to the right network), and moderators will need to do a bit of reading to understand the esoteric channel mode codes. I suppose the real barrier might be that of stretching John Rejectconvenience (has he revealed his name yet? I don't remember) too thin across multiple forums.

If there's interest, I'm willing to help out. I've been moderating a social channel for several years now. I'm also content to just keep using the forum, but if this community ever starts using Discord I will be very disappointed.

IRC as far as I understand it myself is If the Network allows it you can create the Channel in the Network by just Joining it and then depending on the Network you can Register it to make it Persistent or not. But I am not that well versed in it to give a definitive answer. Also while the / command aproch is cool, it is sorta unintuitive to use if you dont know it .

Furthermore, as I looked more into it is we need to find a Network first, that allows the Type of Chat that we want.
The only one in this realm I know is hackint.org.
With the Policy

You are welcome to create any kind of channel, as long as it does not violate German or Dutch law.

Same reason I'm biased toward hackint.

But I just looked into both of the Networks and find booth good choices, but I still prefer hackint over Rizon for the following reasons:
- Personal Bias (I already connect to hackint)
- The CCC trusts the Network for many of its regional delegations (sorta Personal Bias)
- Located in the EU (Dutch/Germany), meaning has to abide to DSGVO/GDPR.

These reasons are not dealbreakers for me, I will join either One of them for the RJC channel. Theses are just my reasons why I would prefer hackint over Rizon. I would love to here your Reasons for Rizon or other Networks, as I am still open for Discussion!

I think it would be good to have some info about the core purpose of the forum. Commonly I see this placed at the very top of the index, but the FAQ would be another good place.
