Yes, the restriction to a single VPN client is annoying.

Blocking ad/telemetry domains can be done by adding Adguards DNS servers in the OS settings. Sadly blocking apps Internet permissions completely is not possible (except on OS like LineageOS, CalyxOS or GrapheneOS).

Zucker ist keine Droge. Zucker ist ein Suchtstoff, zählt aber zu den Nahrungsmitteln, auch wenn es in größeren Mengen (wie z.B. in Süßigkeiten) ungesund ist.

Symphonium is a great Android music player which connects to a Subsonic or Jellyfin server (or any other protocol like SMB).

Navidrome is a music server which implements the Subsonic protocol. This means apps like Symphonium can connect to it.


Any old PC is enough, even a Raspberry Pi is fast enough for a music server.

  1. Install Navidrome on the server/pc
  2. Configure Navidrome (open ports, add your music library/folder)
  3. Connect a subsonic-compatible music app to to the server (I.e. type in IP or domain as well as the port).

Anything more like SSL (https) and a domain is optional for getting it working, and only a benefit if used outside of your home network. Using Tailscale makes a domain/SSL unnecessary and also no longer needs messing around with networking (e.g. no opening ports on the router).

The Samsung Galaxy S5 mini has a IP67 rating and a removable battery.

It's possible to produce water resistant phones with removable Batterien, but manufacturers would rather sell new phones instead of batteries.

It's difficult to know how much of a difference it makes, but I also think it's at least a reason. Given Nintendo is also going after sites like Vimm's Lair, which does not host recent consoles ROMs, it's not the only reason.

Yes. 1TB SSDs can be bought new for 50€, 500GB for even less. For some people this is expensive depending in the region (e.g. I also know someone who uses an HDD). But given the price of other pc parts it isn't something to cheap out on (a 1TB/2TB HDD is also 50€).

The survey was originally sent out on reddit /r/selfhosted, so I expect most respondents are from there.

Das amerikanische Anbieter mitmachen, ist nicht besonders überraschend, schließlich ist das bei dem europäischen Cloud-Projekt Gaia-X auch passiert.

Gaia-X ist ein Produkt europäischer Bemühungen, souveräner und unabhängiger von US-Technologiekonzernen zu werden.

Die Nachricht, dass Google, Microsoft und Amazon bei Gaia-X mitmachen, kam deshalb für viele überraschend.

Global hotkeys have been addressed on KDE, but no applications actually support it — one of the reasons being that no other desktops support it. Typical chicken-egg problem.

No, I haven't connected a Pi to a 4k TV.

Ich kenne jemanden, der seine 30-40g Cannbis im Monat wegraucht. Demenstprechend sind das dann zwar nur 300-500g im Jahr, aber auf mehrmals fliegen kommt man damit auch schon raus.

COSMIC’s Alpha 2 release builds upon that work with functionality built out for Files, additional Settings pages, considerable infrastructure work for screen reader support+, and some highly requested window management features. System76 is ecstatic at the level of excitement and collaboration so far with alpha testers and early app & applet developers, and we look forward to seeing what comes from these new additions.

...

The second COSMIC alpha will be released on September 26th. Those participating in Alpha 1 on Pop!_OS can simply update through the COSMIC App Store to transition. This alpha will be followed by monthly alpha releases until all core features have been built out.
