snap is a Ubuntu thing, nobody else uses it. Even Ubuntu users don't want to use it.
Nobody uses brew outside MacOS.
tio is in the AUR. Recent controversies aside, it's as easy as installing a regular package. But maybe GP doesn't have 10GB to install the entire build chain.
While that is technically true, snaps are very much build for ubuntu. For example it's sandboxing relies on apparmor meaning on distro without it such as archlinux, there is no confinement or security advantage.
Meanwhile flatpak is an actual distro agnostic containerized package management system using namespaces and seccomp available everywhere. Its infrastructure is also officially self hostable unlike snaps.
It has just stopped holding charge. It can be 100% charged according to Solaar, unplug the cable and it is discharged in < 1 minute. Warranty replacement on the way.
Has anyone else noticed their website has been having a ton of issues in the last few weeks as well? In terms of bookings failing and trips not appearing? Just my anecdote but software issues seem to have become very frequent over there…
Can definitely relate. There is no correlation to work complexity and quality in performance reviews from what I’ve seen. It’s often how much you are selling something and your director happens to be buying…
Could I sufficiently foil their mechanism here by not connecting any WiFi devices to their access point and then wrapping their access point with foil? Or would you need to take it all the way and put the device in a faraday cage? I’ve always wanted to build one but never had the motivation. Maybe this will be the impetus I need to finally make one! Like others have stated I use the ISP provided hardware to get around the data cap. But connect nothing to it other than my own router.
There is also the router made in partnership with OpenWRT, the OpenWRT One. I’m using one right now and it has been very stable just on the RC builds for this release for a few weeks now. This is the first actual release supporting this device. The device itself is pretty nice with a JTAG header on the board so it's pretty clear that it is a hacker-friendly device. Haven’t needed to use that yet though…
This would be an awesome way to get more breadth of knowledge during downtime. For example, many times there are interesting algorithms or some technology I would benefit from knowing I just wouldn’t know to search for it.
Or you could make infinite scrolling randomized hacker news front page articles from the past.
If you’re willing to do a little bit of work you can often remove the cellular radio from some modern cars to remove the data collection connectivity, not sure if it’d still be buffered on the device still but it’s a step in the correct direction. I’ve read about this in some modern BMWs so it might be worth a bit of googling if you have a particular modern car you are interested in. Or if no one else has done it with a particular model you could also blaze your own path here.
