Well it runs offline and it is helpfull and it is open source so all the boxes ticked for me so far.

This is an actual good use of AI. Thank you.

I use mine extensively as a health monitor/tracker. I now have 3 years worth of heart rate data and can see early warnings of potential issues if it changes. Also it tracks my daily activity for step counts and also my sleep habits. It is also really good for getting off my phone since I can easily see notifications and if they aren’t important I can just look at them later instead of always having to check my phone. Also it tells the time so thats nice too.

This is so unnecessary and I want it so badly now that I know it exists.

Then when the computer wakes up the mouse is all wonky for the first few minutes

This is the worst. Firefox being snap by default has caused so many issues for me making it unusable in multiple ways and if you are not a Linux expert it is impossible to debug and no way you would believe that the default installation snap would be the core issue.

It is never a bad thing to have an excuse to buy another flashlight. Sincerely all of !flashlight@lemmy.world And the LT1 os an awesome Lantern. 10/10 would recommend.

Disgusting… Just wait untill scammers find a way to hijack this with SEO spam and any link can potentially lead you malicious content even on websites you trust since Google can now place links anywhere.

…Me avoiding responsibilities…

Debian. Since so many distros are based of it I always thought of it to be a stripped down, minimal and basic distro, but after daily driving for a year now in suprised how feature complete and pleasent it is out of the box with kde DE.

What’s on my USB stick you ask… A bunch of random shit I haven’t touched for 8 years so I have no idea what it is and it’s probably outdated, but I’d be damned if that usb stick is not In my keychain because “I might need it one day”

Here’s an idea. Use a mikrotik router board. They are super cheap and support VPN natively. I use wireguard but it should also support openVPN as well. Maybe more I’m not sure. The small hap series are super cheap and works great.

As a Dane I can approve. Looks great.

Mikrotik all the way. But prepare yourself for a nice steep learning curve, but now that om past that i sware by it. Super fast and infinity configurable. The entire router configuration can be exported as a txt file and imported in seconds so if it breaks just get a new one and load up your config and you are good to go. Also the forums are a gold mine of information. What i love the most is just how fast it is. Setting take effect instantly. Also means it is extremely fast to lock yourself out of not careful. Again, steep learning curve but really good after that.

Product idea: “water cooled micro SD card reader”

Well, I’m one. Fed up with windows BS.

As a Dane i can say that maybe its because Scandinavians are generally pretty tech savvy and good with digitalisation. Also Scandinavians has a low tolerance for bullshit.

Is it too late to grief my g-drive with tonnes of AI generated fanfiction and bullshit documents for Gemini to train on?

I used this for a project once and its great. Super powerful and has a great API for automation https://kanboard.org/

If you like Ubuntu I can only recommend Debian with KDE desktop (don’t install the default gnome DE).

I just switched recently and it’s a very clean feeling. No snap and no nonsens. Just stable and trustworthy.
