I had it initially setup to run on Wi-Fi too, battery or charging.
Then I had my battery drain to 30-40% during afternoons, when I'm used to reaching evenings above 60%. Check app usage on settings: Syncthing.
Since I use it mostly for backing up photos, I found it better to enable it only when charging.

The original post is 2 months old.
What's the point of reposting it? Better to post something like:
Don't use a non-private email, or an email linked to your real identity as your recovery email, because, like other things that Proton needs to have access to (such as recipients and email subjects), it can be shared with law enforcement.

Facts: Game didn't break the charts on day one.
Media: Game is struggling on Steam.
Facts: That's not what the data say, in fact some games come out with a bang, others have a long...
Media: OmD, will Ninja Theory survive?!
Can't have a healthier gaming industry if this passes for news, specially with that headline.
5th paragraph in, so they can say they weren't doomsayers:
While the numbers don’t look great, there’s currently nothing to worry about with Hellblade 2.
Edit: added clarity that the post started with a "dialogue".

Since it isn't VC backed or publicly traded, I expect Proton to avoid the AI tech fever.
I guess I need to make my voice heard in that regard and answer the survey.

Seriously though, reasonable discussion of its usefulness aside, how can't people see that outrageous statements like that without any scientific or practical backing, clearly made to inspire devotion and/or fear, keeping the hype and the money and resources drain on, are the telltale of a tech hype?

Everything runs locally, OCR, ML, etc, which can be a bit taxing on lower end hardware, but there are ways to disable the more advanced and computationally expensive features, like NLTK for advanced Natural Language processing.
Your data is stored locally on your server and is never transmitted or shared in any way.

There seems to be a huge overlap in functionality. But a major difference is that Paperwork is a local application that runs on Windows and Linux, while Paperless has a web front end that makes it accessible anywhere (it also has some independently native apps for mobile).

KeepassXC replied on that thread that it wasn't just the privacy problematic networking that was removed:
that bug report is bunk. He removed ALL features, not just networking. That includes yubikey support, auto-type and browser integration.

Every 4-5 seconds? Yeah, logging.
You can either move the system dataset to your boot drive/pool or syslog to /var/log:

The latest release hints towards F-Droid availability: https://github.com/Helium314/HeliBoard/releases/tag/v1.2
Just updating 1.1 APKs would have created issues with incoming F-Droid build.

HeliBoard has been my chosen SwiftKey replacement: https://github.com/Helium314/HeliBoard
Features I value:
- Multilingual typing (as someone who writes EN, PT and dabbles on DE and NL daily, having to check which language I'm on and switch keyboards/layouts every time sucks)
- Glide typing (with optional closed source library)
- Clipboard history
- Comprehensive layout customization
- Autocorrect (with customizable level of confidence)
- Emoji selection and history
It does suck to see an app that I loved and paid for (yes, I used it for THAT long) get enshittified and try push AI* down my throat.
Not to mention M$ owning my typing history (which I kinda could live with).
RIP SwiftKey.

Out of curiosity, which is the launcher you chose?
I froze the stock launcher at the last version without Ads. It works, but I guess some entries like "continue watching" could be bugging out now because it is out of date/never patched.

What's the app? I might check it out.
tinsuke 6 months ago • 100%
I keep using Eternity and even contributed some patches to it because it is Open Source and Android native, which might sound like a low bar, but really:
Open Source
- It's free
- I'm not the product. Really, even if some closed source alternatives have relatively cheap Ad and tracking free experiences, you'll always be seen as the source of monetization. And I'm too weary of having paid for a good app only to see it try to twist my arm and squeeze more money or sell out to a big corp.
- I can fix what's broken. If I find an issue with an otherwise unimportant part of the app, but that matters to me, I don't need to wait and pray it doesn't get forgotten. I can fix it myself and end up helping the devs and whole user base in the process.
Android native
- It shows. I use a 5 year old phone that still kicks ass. But the otherwise good cross platform alternatives out there make the user experience more jittery than is excusable. Even PWAs (Web Apps) are snappier than those!
- It is not a Flutter ListView powered timeline. Trust me, I'm lazy, and if cross platform frameworks were up to the task, I'd be among the first to endorse them. But they aren't. Have you noticed that the timeline tends to "jump around" if you're scrolling around on other apps? Yeah, the Android RecyclerView that Eternity uses doesn't have that (apparently unfixable) problem.
Thanks Bazsalanszky!

The maintainer has been very welcoming of my patches.
The "downsides" I could enumerate are that the production app doesn't get released as often as I would like (how entitled!) and, tbh, the code base is a bit messy, having inherited much code debt from the initial Reddit fork.

It seems they are in the middle of the road of merging SimpleLogin and Proton Pass.
I have Mail Plus (~$4/month) and SL (~$2/month) subs, as they're the only services I need and cost less than the ~$10/month for Proton Unlimited, which is what I would need to pay for if I used both services from Proton.
Right now there's this Proton Pass feature gray area, where I have Pass free, so I'm limited to 10 aliases, but the aliases I create on Pass have the custom domain I setup on SL, and show on my SL dashboard too. Weird.
Technological feat aside: >Revolutionary heat dissipating coating effectively reduces temperatures by more than 10% 78.5C -> 70C = (78.5 - 70) / 78.5 = 0.1082 = 10% right?! Well, not really. Celsius is an arbitrary temperature scale. The same values on Kelvin would be: 351.65K -> 343.15K = (351.65 - 343.15) / 351.65 = 0.0241 = 2% (???) So that's why you shouldn't do % on temp changes.

My experience with the last Nvidia GPU generations is the opposite, the fan curves are too conservative temp wise. Your card will get very loud trying to maintain a ~70C temp target. This of course changes with manufacturer and model.
With a 3090 I suggest an undervolt (even a modest one works miracles for the power hungry top tier cards). And after doing that, you can also dial in a slower fan curve.
While finding a good undervolt is time consuming (please do test, stress the heck out of it, with different apps/games), it was a god send to me. And it helps a lot with keeping the memory cool, which is something I worried a lot with the ram chips on the back of the board that the 3090 has.

Does Nvidia have first party software for OC, fan curve, undervolt and OSD?
That's what I use Afterburner currently for.

On handling downloaded songs and offline playback, my personal (but informed) opinion is that there is:
- some licensing reasons for it to be more complicated than strictly necessary
- lack of interest of supporting an app feature that doesn't drive numbers immediately up (sure, I agree that a better offline experience would improve the product and help user retention, but it isn't easy/quick to measure its impact), and
- lack of ownership with many teams having to support a functionality (keep the app working offline) within all the various app features they own.
So, just as a dog with multiple owners, it goes neglected and starves.

I'd say that they're "cooking the books" as in: making it look like they're in better shape than they are by cutting costs, but causing irreparable damage to themselves that will manifest in the long run.
I've survived 3 layoffs at Spotify last year alone. Once I started working there It didn't take long to be proud and feel happy about it. Now, although people still find it cool when I tell them and I still do the same job (no workload increase), I know it is just like any other greedy corpo and I feel compelled to care less and less.

Specially if you are considering leaving it as storage only, I'd say it's totally worth it sticking to CORE.
It's stable, tried and tested. And it works. Even if fancy new features like RAIDZ Expansion won't make it to the GUI, it'll probably work just fine from CLI.
I have a CORE box as my NAS / Home Server with many Jails running my stuff in it and I don't plan to switch from that anytime soon. Maybe if my services stop supporting FreeBSD, then I'd start by migrating them to Docker containers running in a Linux VM, and when all of them are migrated, then I'd consider going the SCALE route.

OC so it drops frames less often?
I mean it, Zelda BotW and TotK both benefit a lot from some OC. Specially yours being a V1 Switch.
Even simple games like Sea of Stars drop less frames with a simple CPU OC.
You can also get the device keys to be able to run a Switch emulator (but I heard that if one really wants, they can find that kind of stuff online).
I've heard about running homebrew software but never looked into it.
Now, you can always go full tilt and start sailing the high seas.
