Some jerk company (like Google) cannot suddenly discontinue my entire reader with all my feeds, because its mine, on my server. But because it’s a web app, I can use it from any device, unlike a local app. After Google killed reader, That was just too annoying. Self hosted since.
Freshrss is pretty great.
Thank you for sharing the information!
I’m sorry, but are you being this snotty for any other reason than to make yourself feel better for being rude?
Thanks for the info!
If you connect your phone to the car, can it spy on your Signal messages? I mean, they have to decrypt on your end for you to see them, right? Or has Signal taken specific steps to stop this?
In my region, where public transport doesn’t exist much at all, if you don’t drive, you might not eat or work (the lucky few work remotely, but not all).
What model did you buy? It is rare to see one these days that doesn’t have all this nonsense.
The issue is that this 20 year old car is not going to last forever or have replacement parts available forever. We need better privacy laws, because time and entropy will eventually force us all into this evil mess.
If you do not teach proprietary software un schools, you will hobble your students’ job hunting potential. We should ALSO teach open source alternatives, and teach the idea that there are functional alternatives, but a student who has never used the major apps isn’t getting their resume even looked at by a human.
I’ve never bothered to check, because I self host to serve 1-5 users, and I’ve never generated enough traffic for any ISP to notice. I would need to pay them more for a static IP address, but we have dynamic DNS services for that. My ISP doesn’t put any actual obstacles in place beyond dynamic IP.
I find that the entire category of auto-immune diseases are a thing most people fail to really “get”. Especially if it is even moderately uncommon.
I run BicBucStrim on my NAS, and I access it through the web browser of any PC or tablet, my Kobo eReader, or Mobiscribe eReader. You can download a book to the device to read it, though. It basically just generates a nice web layout to access your Calibre library.
Depending what you want, you can do this very simply:. Create an SMB network share on the PC. It can be password protected or not. Doesn’t matter what OS, really (Windows, OSX, Linux). Then, on your Android phone, use an app like Solid Explorer or any other network capable file manager app that you like. Add the share to your file explorer app. After that, you can copy files just like the network share is a USB flash drive or SD card, or any other drive. It is taking advantage of stuff already built into your PC OS.
Being able to recognize poison ivy. Growing up in a forest, it was one of many basic automatic skills learned in childhood, and I see and avoid it without much thought. I’ve had to prevent many friends from other regions or countries from causing themselves serious harm by ignorance of poison ivy, though.
Paw Paw is the only member of the papaya family that is native to North America. They taste nothing like a mango or a papaya, though. Hard to describe.
Pretty much all the big brands work with Calibre.
When I use my self-hosted FreshRSS, I have my own copy of the articles that nobody else can see or delete. Sometimes a site will post an article, FreshRSS grabs it, then the site takes it down. I still have it, though, because it was already grabbed. Nobody else is tracking what I’m reading. Nobody else is showing me adds in the middle of my articles. Nobody else knows which ones I favorite. I don’t see or have to exert any effort to ignore user comments. It’s much faster to scroll through the feed, read what you want, mark the rest read, and then done. You can skim a lot of stuff rapidly. but only be bothered with the title of anything you decide not to read.
Freshrss has a nice mobile web view that works pretty well. There are also several apps out there that will work with it.
Convenience.
