Jokes on them, my phones stupid fingerprint reader only works about 3% of the time. They’ll get frustrated and give up before finding anything, I know I usually do.

New OS is a waste of resources, but it would be great to see them embrace something like GrapheneOS

I get the joke, but also I was shocked to see in the article:

Thunderbird for Android runs on mobile devices running Android 5 and above.

Who out there is still running Lollipop?! That came out over a decade ago. You can’t even get Thunderbird through the Play Store because Google Play Services dropped support for 5.1 back in July. I have so many questions.

Can you elaborate on your request? What feature is it lacking that other browsers deliver on?

Cool story bro. I once ate pineapple while watching a Golden Girls rerun.

Looks like someone out there had the same idea.

They’re currently selling a packaged system for ~$5k, which is a bit pricey, but maybe worth if you’re full time on the van life. Looks like you could probably fit 2 of these units on a typical roof, obstructions permitting. Alternatively you could do one tracker and one flat unit.

It looks like ground based 2-axis tracking systems can be found for ~$500-1k, you’d just need to bring your own expertise to mount it to the roof and program the controls yourself.

Semi-unrelated: others mentioned painting your van white (which you already have) but I’ll raise you one better - consider painting it with an IR-Emissive cooling paint, e.g., https://i2cool.com/

There’s unfortunately few products on the market at this time, but keep your eyes peeled.

That’s… That’s the… Well nevermind…

Remember kids, everything is a data mining trap. Be sure to submit your resume with zero PII, and at least 1024-bit encryption.

They were talking about Nova, not Lawnchair. Nova hasn’t officially been abandoned, but they were purchased by a big data broker a few years ago, and just a few months ago Branch (Nova’s owner) laid off almost all of the Nova Launcher development team.

Nova is not dead, but the writing is on the wall.

Height selection on metric side has jumps of up to 3 centimeters lmao.

Too lazy to look, but given 1 inch = 2.54 cm, my guess is the tool is written in inches, and just rounds those values to the nearest whole cm, thus alternating between 2 & 3 cm increments.

This is the ideal male body. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

But that’s not a burner phone, that’s an off phone.

burner goes from your house, to abortion clinic, to your office, back to your house

Hmm, must be someone else, I don’t recognize this number

You do you, but I will say uBO can block all of those things, it just doesn’t do it all out of the box.

You have to subscribe to the right blocklists, or manually remove elements you don’t want from sites you visit frequently.

ABP offers you the convenience of not having to manually tinker with everything, which is what money is supposed to be used for - convenience.

Cool, so is Bitwarden, hence my concern

I know little about Proton Pass, but how confident are you they don’t also use a proprietary SDK with their open source apps?

Fresh tomatoes from a garden, or if you have a good local farmer slinging heirloom tomatoes are the best.

Canned tomatoes are really close to this, and being shelf stable are pretty incredible because you can make delicious sauces any time.

The “fresh” tomatoes that look like what you get on a burger at a fast food joint, or the Roma tomatoes that come sliced into wedges on that side salad at the diner you have literally never seen anyone eat are infinitely worse than canned tomatoes and honestly should be banned from using the word “tomatoes”

Feels like those ones should be forced to market themselves as “tumatos” or “tomato-like fruit”

But not those extensions…

How’s about a patent that expires 5 years after its first use by a billion+ dollar company? 5 years after it is used in more than 10,000 products? 5 years after its licensing has yielded over $1M in profit? 5 years after spending over $100k on advertising? 5 years after your first major court settlement?

I think there are ways to protect individual innovators but also lessen patent abuse

It’s a poor analogy, but imagine a public IP like a hotel, there can be lots of guests (clients) at this hotel. Hotel policy is they won’t let any outsiders in unless you know the room number (port) of the person you’re trying to reach.

Imagine you and a friend are staying in separate hotels and want to give each other copies of your favorite Linux .ISOs, but neither of you knows the other’s room number - you show up at the hotel and the front desk tells you to pound sand because you don’t have their room number.

As long as one of you knows the other’s room number though, you can meet.

Torrenting without port forwarding means you can only trade your favorite .ISOs with people who have port forwarding enabled (sharing their room number to the tracker), which makes you less effective of a seeder. Enabling port forwarding allows you to share with anyone (sharing your room number with the tracker).
