Not a gaming distro but OpenSUSE has Aeon and Kalpa that are arguably more secure with more volumes also being encrypted, focus on btrfs snapshots being reliable vs rpm-ostree style images, etc…

I used it before bazzite 2 years ago or so but it was a worse user experience in most ways even if there are technical benefits for it (steam via flatpak needing hours of figuring out non- documented modifications to get working, GRUB decryption that is not only slow and prone to errors but also doesn’t show characters typed for a long passphrase and fails after the first try, volume mounting errors every other boot so booting would fail, and layering being worse than Fedora at the time, etc…)

And nobody can argue that openSUSE doesn’t have the most fun mascot/logo haha.

Also good to note: RiscV is not open hardware, it is an open architecture.

The CPU’s/MCUs made with RiscV are still 99% proprietary and they can put just aa many backdoors into the devices as they want with little no no oversight, arguably less because you have orders of magnitude less external bug and penatration testers.

Definitely in support of RISC-V because like AV1, open standards are the first big step, but it is good to note that “security” may or may not be better as well as the company behind it.

I completely overlooked the android app in the readme, thanks! I have a server set up so can I start local to try it out and migrate to a server later?

Also is there support for mealie through an authentication platform like authelia?

Any plans for releasing on F-droid?

Edit: Oof, you can’t search for foods when making a recipe or meal, hopefully that comes because otherwise it is a huge process to make any custom meal or recipe…

Damn, I was hoping that it would be an android app with Health Connect support 😅

Looks very nice though!

I use Cronometer.

Myfitnesspal is a dumpster fire, I used fatsecret for a while but cronometer is much faster to input meals and repeats and recipes and doesn’t have core features locked behind a paywall.

Plus cronometer supports Health Connect which integrates with other FOSS local-only projects like gadgetbridge.

I want to try a fully FOSS app like Waistline to be fully open source and not sell eating habits to advertisers and insurance companies, but they all lack Health Connect support with issues for them open for 2+ years with almost no response.

Edit: also just trying out the new FOSS NutriTrace app (not on play store or fdroid yet, just github) and it is quite good as far as features, it has almost all of the core features except its search is a bit rough still and you can only pull from locally saved foods while making recipes. But it also can be self hosted with a PWA, or synced with a server interface through an android or iOS app. Seems like it might be a bit vibe coded with some weird bugs and fast development, but it is pretty good so far.

Yep, it is not even worth an article lol

I bet the MCU is doing exactly nothing having to do with it either 😂

I would be interested if this little CPU somehow helps Qualcomm processors transition to mainline Linux instead of android though.

First tornado winds that come through and vertical panels are toast, and horizontal 6ft from the ground would probably be difficult

FUTO is a bit problematic

Rossman left FUTO (unclear if it was because of their practices) anyway. Best to contribute to projects directly.

Every discussion I have seen on the subject says that docker ipv6 is pretty busted from a security perspective and you have to implement a bunch of workarounds.

I don’t have to time both to migrate to podman (and maybe have to run dual stacks for what isn’t available) AND migrate to ipv6. But apparently the way podman does it is also kind of a hacky way (I am far from a networking expert) so I will sit with my pretty decent, secure, and working ipv4 lol

One thing that people often forget is TVs / stream boxes and Alexa/google assistants.

Smart TVs all have microphones that are recording (for “voice commands”) and the same with the remotes for stream devices (though probably not unless asked because of battery life), also google and Alexa’s are constantly always listening. They are simply spyware devices that parse everything you say and hand it to advertisers, insurance, governments, etc…

Phones also suffer from the battery life problem, so jury is still out on whether they listen to you because constantly recording audio would degrade battery life quite a bit (though maybe it is factored in). Phones absolutely do share location data and any phones discovered on the same WiFi network or in the same location if that data was available and from there will share entire search history of devices on the same network (well, that is on the data center end, phones likely just send what devices and for how long they were together). From there it is quite easy to advertised based on search history, unencrypted text data, etc…

For example in OP, OP had likely searched around about cars and checked out manufacturers websites and such before meeting with the parents (unless they were going in completely blind to dealerships), so it would have shared exactly the cars that they were looking at and linked it to the parents for advertising.

Still fucked, ethically wrong and legally grey, but “listening” is a bit of an inefficient way to do it, generally.

Can you provide one or elaborate on it?

Embedded developers have tried all manner or wizardry to simply track speed, not even position based just on an accelerometer/gyro, but the sample rate error drift is so large that putting a GPS module in there is 100x more accurate for deriving speed.

I would be interested to see how a browser, which almost certainly doesn’t get the full serialized data, is able to track just based on that which the wearables industry have been trying for decades with bad results.

It also depends. The new fairphone only has USB 2.0 so hardware wise also can’t do USB display output IIRC.

But to be fair, when is the last time that is there wasn’t a softball interview or debate? A huge portion of the US population have never seen a real debate lol

Is it wasteful or just cost-inefficient? The only “waste” you have is many small inverters vs a few big inverters (in terms of raw materials the big inverters will have much much more copper, glass, gold, etc… But much fewer of them).

Cables still have to be run, inter-battery connections have to be made, the batteries have similar capacity per area, etc…

And is promised to be open, but their hardware is still proprietary closed source just like bambu and they use a proprietary hotend and nozzle that you can’t replace 3rd party, so if anything breaks and they decide not to help you, good luck fixing it.

Almost exactly how bambu started. Seemed to get better once 3rd parties cloned their proprietary parts (not of their own doing), then nosedived.

Looks like an amazing printer at a great price, but so did Bambu in the beginning.

Except boots.

If infantry bought the straight trash on the consumer market today, they would fall apart in a month…

This is how tap to pay cards work IIRC. Secure storage chip, transceiver chip, NFC coil, boom

It depends on what you want to do. I went down a bit of a rabbit hole because my girlfriend wants one and I get a bit research obsessed because I like to buy once if possible.

sub 300€

Every new machine sub-300€ or so will have plastic gears and almost all plastic parts. This means that they will only last a few years of hard use, or longer very light use. They are also very limited in what fabric they can sew because anything like denim or thicker reaches the limits of the plastic gears so it can’t do it without the risk of breaking.

The Singer Heavy Duty is often recommended but it has very very touchy pedal, runs very fast, and has no speed regulation. Contrary to the name it is just a basic beginner machine, not heavy duty at all and QC is very bad. Modern Singers are apparently extremely hit or miss in general.

So for that price range, going for ease of use and features makes the Brother CS70000X if you are in the US, otherwise Brother Innov-is A16 for that budget in the EU.

500€ Budget:

• Brother Innov-is A65
• Janome Sewist 721
• Janome Sewisr 725S
• Janome TM30 if you want computerized (not better per se)
• probably a Pfaff or husqvarna is also good but less reviews on these.

1000-2000 Budget

• Janome HD series
• Juki F300 or F600
• Janome Skyline S5/S6
• this is where you start getting into deciding based on more technical knowledge that I don’t have.

There is also a 2nd route: get a decent vintage 2nd hand machine in a 2nd hand store for <100€, try it out, learn the basics, do some repairs, and see how much you actually use it. Then, when it breaks, you will be in a position to know what you need, how much you use it, and what features would be nice. Then you can go out and buy an expensive model that will last you forever (hopefully).

Been using it (not often beyond basics for home server container administration) for years but I always get confused with searching vs search and replace vs global search

/<search> (n for next instances)

:%s/<search>/<replace>

:g/<search>/p (grep was named after this one IIRC, Global Regular Expression Print)

And often I just use :%s to search and highlight all instances and don’t press enter because I forget the others and I often have to search and replace for docker comppse snippets.

Sadly, I can’t afford to spend ≥420€ for a dedicated streaming device, so looks like us poors are stuck either with a terrible experience of plugging in a laptop and usingouse and keyboard or tracking and from a Chromecast/smart TV/etc…
