Neo Launcher looks like exactly what I want! Thank you!

IzzyOnDroid

I had seen this referenced a few times in the past couple of weeks but finally got off my butt to check it out. I always install F-Droid but never bothered with extra repos. I guess I'll need to add that to my setup playbook because I'm gonna need Neo on everything now :).

It'd be kind of nice if I could run Ansible on an Android device. Full root backups aren't quite the same thing since I really want to apply the settings to multiple devices, not just splat a disk image on top of things.

  • Password Store + OpenKeychain - Supports Yubikeys (NFC and USB) for both decrypt and ssh+git sync
  • Syncthing
    • Uploads my photos to where another script can publish them to my photo gallery
    • Like Google Photos with "unlimited" storage and original quality
  • Element - Self hosted Synapse with Googlechat bridge eliminated regular Google Chat for me
  • Firefox
  • KeePassXC - Yubikeys don't work for my wife. We handle shared passwords with this + Syncthing.
  • Aegis - 2FA with workable backup

I'm looking for:

  • Launcher most comparable to Nova. Majority FOSS launchers seem to be text-based search things which is getting way too into the weeds for me.
  • Mail app with good search. I don't think this actually exists because IMAP sucks too much but lack of search will always make the transition from Gmail nearly impossible.

It's mindblowing how smooth (and fast!) suspend/resume is on the Steam Deck.

I haven't tried it yet but I vaguely recall traefik had a better proxy-auth setup while nginx locked it away behind their freemium plan.

You know you're making an argument for the US (and others) to impose even tougher controls and sanctions on China, right?

[–] steltek@lemm.ee -3 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Hilarious that China, renowned for its near-schizophrenic economic controls, is asking the US to lighten up on its own policies that, frankly, don't go far enough to balance things out between the two.

What a super weird question. "Cloud computing" is distributed computing. Distributed computing is practically all we have left. Bitcoin/crypto, Kubernetes, Bit Torrent, and endless AWS/Cloud infra patterns. Then we have our happy little Fediverse here.

I feel the author was trying to say "is at home distributed computing dying?" In which case, yes, because Mobile took over and you really can't do background compute on those. Certainly not like how SETI@Home worked.

Also Password Store! Syncs over Git and on Android you can use a Yubikey so that the private key isn't even on your phone.

But yes, KeePassXC is way more user friendly. Anything touching PGP/GPG is an automatic red flag for family.

I'm getting CS-nerd excited about how this is all going to play out. Federated moderation is hard and so many awful, clunky things have been tried before. Are we actually going to see a web-of-trust or reputation system that reaches widespread adoption? It's gotta be silent and noninteractive as there's no way to expect normal people to put up with the complexity.

Grow a damn spine, Target. They can't do anything of the sort without 1A burning their entire bigot law to the ground.

Accounts aren't just posts/comments/votes. You have the communities you're following, settings, and other bits of private state (remembering what you've already read). You'd be in charge of preserving and lugging this data around.

I dunno how that's going to pan out. My kids pedal themselves around now but the cargo bike is way too useful to give up. It's the best bike I will ever own in my life.

It's like minivans. The kids are in college but you're so used to being able to carry everyone and everything all at once that you can't downsize.
